Vale Dr John C. Whitcomb (1924–2020) . A tribute to the co-author of The Genesis Flood

Dr John Whitcomb passed from this life on 4th February 2020.

Dr Whitcomb co-authored The Genesis Flood with Dr Henry Morris, the founder of the Institute for Creation Research. Published in 1961, the book spurred on the development of the emerging modern biblical creation movement.

In his early days at Princeton University, John Whitcomb was far from Christ. He came from a non-Christian home and was studying evolutionary ideas of origins. The prayers and faithful witness of some Christians saw him come to faith in Christ at the end of his first year. At that moment he dropped the evolutionary ideas, but his mentor taught him the Gap Theory. He came to realize that this idea doesn’t work, and to see it as “an inadequate, ineffective attempt to compromise Genesis 1 with the geologic time-table.”

The book that led millions of Christians astray.

I don’t always agree with young Earth creationists, but I do applaud them for exposing the fatal flaws in evolutionary theory.

They fought to CONCEAL this evidence that shows the Bible is TRUE. Dr. Andrew Snelling highlights how certain rock layers both contradict the evolutionary timeline and confirm the biblical flood account.
