Hm. It looks like you’re *starting* with the assumption that evolutionary theory is correct, and *then* turning to Scripture to find support for evolution theory.
For example, you wrote: “Gen 1:20 ‘Let the waters teem with swarms of living creatures,’ Scientists say that life arose in the seas.”
Several problems with your interpretation: that took place on the 5th day, the same time that the birds were created. Land animals were created on the 6th day, *after* birds. And life existed on the 3rd day — land plants. And, hm, the sun and stars were created *after* plants, on the 4th day.
So, no, the predominant evolutionary theory is absolutely incompatible with Scripture. You must either discard Scripture or discard what your “scientists” say.
No, by no means.
That was from years ago when the crevo debates were going on in response to the continual allegations of the evos against Scripture and that it wasn't *accurate* to science. I was just pointing out the parallels between Scripture and science for their information.
They can then refute the Scripture if they want, but then they are forces into a position of denying the science that has discovered years later what Scripture told us by divine revelation.
Science is just coming late to the party, thinking they've discovered something new only to discover Christianity at the top of the mountain when they scaled it.
Whether they like it or not, science is only verifying what Bible believers have known all along. Their problem is, they don't like the source but their coming to the same conclusions as Scripture by the *scientific method* and philosophy does not invalidate or nullify the fact that this information was given us by divine revelation and IS valid.
The other problem they whine about is the language that is being used, but the conciseness of the language, which conveys the most amount of accurate information in as few words as possible, does not mean that what is conveyed is wrong.
Scripture is not wrong simply because someone does not like or approve of the delivery.
