Old-Earth Creationism
by Henry Morris, Ph.D.
Many evangelical leaders today, unfortunately, have capitulated to the evolutionary timescale of modern unbelieving geologists and astronomers. They feel that they must somehow reinterpret the Genesis record of creation to allow for billions of prehistoric years, which the evolutionists must have in order to make cosmic evolution and biological evolution seem feasible. This compromise is necessary, they say, in order to win scientists and other intellectuals to the Lord...

Answer my question first. Answering a question with a question is rude and doesn’t answer the question.
Einstein wasnt born in that time period. Why would it be in Genesis? Just because someone comes along and disproves a discredited theory doesnt mean its going to be in Genesis.
God can do whatever he wants, even evolution on a 5 billion year old Earth.
“Love the Lord your God with your whole heart, mind, and soul.”
The gospel I’ve heard doesn’t tell me to turn my mind in the off position. Then again, I’m not a Calvinist. I do know that if Paul were a simpleton, the Greeks would probably be moslem today.
You prove my point. You can not disprove the Word of God. Thank you.
God didn't know about relativity before Einstein?
Before you were created...
A primer gtrplyr53.
So creationism isn’t falsifiable?
Why would God need Einstein to tell Him about relativity? God came before Einstein was ever born. God is all knowing. He happened to create a person who was born with a brain to figure out that evolution is garbage, and point it out to people like you.
Creationism is the Word of God. Evolution is a discredited theory. Neither Creationism nor evolution claim to be science. Science is biology, chemistry, geology, physics, etc.
He wouldn't. So why isn't relativity in the Bible?
According to who?
Its hard work on here. And so many posts trying to promote evolution. Darwin wasnt even the first to promote evolution, either, which is strange. His works were about natural selection and variation among species.
Again you did not answer my question. My question was:
Why does God need evolution to make man?
Your answer is weak and generic. Of course God can do whatever he wants. That is not an answer to my specific question.
The answer you don’t want to give, is that God does not need evolution to make man. He could make man exactly the way God’s Word describes how man was made.
My answer to your question is: while God could have made man in a billion different ways, including ways we cannot even think of right now, we know how man was made because God’s Word tells us how God made the first man.
And I will also say the biblical account of creation is the only account one can believe in and not run into biblical errors with. If you believe man evolved from other lower life forms, the whole natural selection/death process was in place - but God’s Word says that death only entered the world because of man’s sin. So you are in severe conflict on this point.
Further under natural selection and evolution, death equals progress. Dying off of weaker things in order for stronger to survive, death turns out to be a positive mechanism under this view. But the bible says that death is an enemy of man. So you are now in a large conflict on this point.
And finally if man evolved he was not created in the image of God. So again you are in severe contradiction to God’s Word on this topic as well.
God doesnt nor did explain everything He did. Why exactly would relativity be in the Bible? Why didnt God mention the Internet in the Bible? Just because we mortals didnt figure everything out immediately doesnt mean God has to put it in the Bible.
A program on NRB, last night, was talking about how evolutionists believe birds evolved from reptiles and went on to explain and show electron microscope pictures proving such is totally impossible. Also, NG, a few years ago had an article about fossil proof found in China regarding reptile to bird evolution. Turns out, the dumb Chinese had pulled a funny on NG with a homemade fossil. NG had to do a retraction but hid the retraction in the last pages of an issue, in very small print. They just cannot admit Darwinian evolution has no scientific basis
God does not need evolution to make man.
Why do you limit what God can do?
According to the fact that its ideas dont support the record. Science goes by that, you know. And as theories cant be supported, they are discarded. But Evolutionists hang onto their idea no matter what the facts state
Thanks for proving my point.
