1 THEISTIC EVOLUTION & OTHER ACCOMMODATING APPROACHES to GEN 1-11 Ray Mondragon
2 OPTIONS 1. Grammatical-Historical- Contextual = Literal 2. All Accommodating Approaches - Non-literal
3 CHARACTERISTICS 1. God as ultimate Creator 2. Darwinian evolution & naturalism accepted 3. Non-literal hermeneutic utilized 4. Principle of modern scientific theory utilized 5. Old earth theory accepted 6. Non-universal flood accepted 7. Exegetical accuracy lacking
4 ACCOMMODATING VIEWS Theistic Evolution
5 THEISTIC EVOLUTION God used Process of Evolution to Create every Living Thing
6 ACCOMMODATING VIEWS Theistic Evolution Progressive Creation - interjections
7 the hypothesis that God has increased the complexity of life on earth by successive creations of new life forms over billions of years while miraculously changing the earth to accommodate the new life. Hugh Ross
8 PROGRESSIVE CREATION God occasionally injected acts of creation 1. Imposes evolution & other theories 2. Eisegesis & reinterpretation 3. Recent & novel
9 ACCOMMODATING VIEWS Theistic Evolution Progressive Creation - interjections Framework Hypothesis - genre
10 advocates of the framework interpretation argue that the six days are not literal days but frames arranged into two panels. They provide a literary structure in which the creative activity of God is topically narrated... The complete seven-day framework is a metaphorical appropriation of lower-register language denoting an upper-register temporal reality. Lee Irons
11 ELEMENTS Figurative framework - frames Real events - non-literal elements Historical events - non-sequential Accommodates - deep time
12 FRAMEWORK HYPOTHESIS Literary structure narrating topically & theologically creative activity of God 1. Historicity evidence 2. Exegetical details 3. Clarity of Scripture
13 ACCOMMODATING VIEWS Theistic Evolution Progressive Creation - interjections Framework Hypothesis - genre Gap Theory - Gen 1:1-2 gap
14 GAP THEORY Large Time Gap between Gen 1:1 and 1:2 1. Accepts Evolution 2. Ignores Geological Issues 3. Grammatical problems
15 ACCOMMODATING VIEWS Theistic Evolution Progressive Creation - interjections Framework Hypothesis - genre Gap Theory - Day Age Theory - Gen 1:1-2 gap geological ages Other Views
16 INCOMPATIBILITY 1. Philosophical Intolerance
17 INCOMPATIBILITY Diametrically opposed Cannot both be true Self-organization by chance vs. Intelligent design
18 Darwinism functions as the scientific support for an overarching naturalistic worldview, which is being promoted aggressively far beyond the bounds of science. Some even say we are entering an age of universal Darwinism, when it will no longer be just a scientific theory but a comprehensive worldview. N Pearcy
19 INCOMPATIBILITY 1. Philosophical Intolerance 2. Hermeneutical Inadequacy
20 HERMENEUTICS 1. INTERPRETING SCRIPTURE Vaticanus
21 DETERMINE MEANING: Laws of Grammar Facts of History Framework of Context
22 ... to find out the meaning of a statement for the author and for the 1st hearers or readers, and thereupon to transmit that meaning to modern readers. Mickelsen
23 HERMENEUTICS 1. INTERPRETING SCRIPTURE 2. INTERPRETING CREATION Vaticanus
24 Interpreting Creation 1. Methodological Naturalism a. Imposes naturalistic theory b. Attempts to harmonize text 2. Biblical Worldview a. Begin with Scripture b. Avoid evolutionary theory c. Interpret physical data
25 TRUTH Science - changes, incomplete, partial, tentative, imperfect, done by sinful, depraved people Scripture - unchanging, perfect, complete, free from imperfection, unlimited, eternal, ultimate reality
26 INCOMPATIBILITY 1. Philosophical Intolerance 2. Hermeneutical Inadequacy 3. Scientific Insufficiency
27 YOUNG vs OLD EARTH Naturalism - 5 Billion years 20 for Universe Scripture - ~6,000 years (Gen 1-2, 5, 11)
28 INCOMPATIBILITY 1. Philosophical Intolerance 2. Hermeneutical Inadequacy 3. Scientific Insufficiency 4. Biblical Inconsistency
29 ACCOMMODATION 1. Emphasize supporting details 2. Superimpose current theories 3. Reinterpret text 4. Ignore non-supporting details
