Transcription

1

2 2 Cor. 11:3 But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpents cunning, your minds may somehow be lead astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.

3 What was the Cunning Craft of Satan? Yea hath God said? Is the Word of God Trustworthy? You Shall not surely die! God s Word is wrong! If you believe the Word of God then you will not become as gods. You will be held back! There is wisdom to be gotten aside from God s Word

5 Two Biases in Conflict The Present is the key to the Past Revelation is the Key to the Past

6 Certain World Altering Events Creation Everything begins by God, a process that we can not see or replicate Great geological formations Corruption (Sin) The perfect creation is defaced Nature itself is transformed Catastrophe (Flood) The Earth again is transformed by a catastrophe of epic proportions that we have never seen since Great geological transformations occurred immediately

7 Walking After their Own Lust Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 2Pe 3:3

8 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 2Pe 3:4

9 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 2Pe 3:5

11 How Old Was Adam?

12 Scientifically You Could not Learn Adam s Age

13 Could you be mistaken by scientifically trying to determine the age of other things created on that day?

14 Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out. Job 36:26

16 Inferences erroneously drawn from facts observed in nature have, however, led to supposed conflict between science and revelation; and in the effort to restore harmony, interpretations of Scripture have been adopted that undermine and destroy the force of the word of God. Ed. 128

17 Geology has been thought to contradict the literal interpretation of the Mosaic record of the creation. Millions of years, it is claimed, were required for the evolution of the earth from chaos; and in order to accommodate the Bible to this supposed revelation of science, the days of creation are assumed to have been vast, indefinite periods, covering,thousands or even millions of years. Ed. 128

18 In order to account for His works, must we do violence to His word? Ed. 129

19 God s Character Would God use a process based on death to create man?

30 If God is omnipotent Q 525 Sagan and omniscient, why didn t he start the universe out in the first place so it would come out the way that he wants? Why is he constantly repairing and complaining? No, there s one thing the Bible makes clear: the biblical God is a sloppy manufacturer. He s not good at design, he s not good at execution. He d be out of business if there was any competition.

53 H.G. Wells Became an atheist after his study of evolution Authored many fiction and nonfiction books If I believe in evolution I can no longer believe in Genesis Paraphrased Wells, ref 5, pg. 127

54 Those who doubt the reliability of the records of the Old and New Testaments, will be lead to go a step further, and doubt the existence of God; and then, having lost their anchor, they are left to beat upon the rocks of infidelity. PP pg 113

57 Exodus 20:11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it

58 The assumption that the events of the first week required 1000 s of years strikes directly at the foundation of the fourth commandment. PP. pg 111

59 God s Creative Power

60 The Sabbath points to God s ability to bring something out of a void of nothing.

61 Ps. 148:5 Let them praise the name of the Lord for He commanded and they were created.

62 Ps 33:9 For He spake and it was done, He commanded, and it stood fast.

63 Matthew 8:5,6 5And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him, 6And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

64 Mathew 8 7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. 8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

65 Mathew 8 9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. 10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

66 Ps. 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, oh God; and renew a right spirit within me.

67 Eph. 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
