Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Twenty-somethings once faithfully attended church. What made them stop? While most said they still believe that the Bible is God's Word, they also said that the idea that the earth is millions of years old was one thing that caused them to doubt the bible? The crumbling foundation of the church takes a devastating toll on future generations. Therefore, churches must reclaim the historical truth found in Genesis and apply the Bible's authority to every area of life." -Ken Ham, President Answers in Genesis As the modern Church struggles to find a place of relevancy for a new generation that already has massive demands on its time and attention, more and more young people raised in the Church are leaving it - failing to find the answers to their questions of faith and life, beset with doubts raised by issues that the Church chooses not to address. Opting to skirt the controversy of Genesis as literal history, the biblical authority of the Holy Word is called into question and reduced to a collection of mere stories. More popularly considered an issue for schools or in the public realm, the conflicting views on the age of the earth also remain a pivotal issue within the Church - as it has for over two centuries. Was the Creation week literally six days? Does science really point to an old earth? Does the issue really matter for Christians? Should this issue even be discussed within the Church? Join authors Dr. Jason Lisle and Tim Chaffey as they put forth a case against an old-earth interpretation of Scripture. A comprehensive biblical, theological, and scientific critique of old-earth creationism, the book presents its compelling testimony in layman's terms to create a powerful debate that leads to unquestionable truth.
Download or read book A Biblical Case for an Old Earth written by David Snoke and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2006-08-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present creation-evolution debate is often cast as a choice between two positions: naturalistic evolution over millions of years or miraculous creation six thousand years ago. When simplified, this choice is often presented as one between science and the Bible, a choice that leaves much ground between the two views yet to be discussed. A Biblical Case for an Old Earth seeks to address the gap between theistic evolutionism and young-earth creationism by finally paying due attention to the biblical aspect of the debate. Both a scientist and a preacher, David Snoke presents a theological study of several themes in the evolution discussion, including the balance theme of Scripture and the day-age interpretation. Complete with an appendix that gives a literal translation of Genesis 1-11, this intriguing study will interest both scientists and lay Christians who want to dig into the faith-science intersection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from Three Views on Creation and Evolution, this digital short provides a vivid defense for the view that God created the world relatively recently and in six days. Critical of current scientific consensuses, though not abrasively so, the authors present biblical, philosophical, and scientific supports for their perspective. Their clear argumentation makes this one of the best presentations of a historic if recently maligned viewpoint, one that will be useful to proponents and opponents alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last forty years, scientists have uncovered evidence that if the Universe had been forged with even slightly different properties, life as we know it - and life as we can imagine it - would be impossible.

Conflicting notions about our place in the Universe are defined, defended and critiqued from scientific, philosophical and religious viewpoints. The authors' engaging and witty style addresses what fine-tuning might mean for the future of physics and the search for the ultimate laws of nature. Tackling difficult questions and providing thought-provoking answers, this volumes challenges us to consider our place in the cosmos, regardless of our initial convictions.
Download or read book Four Views on Creation Evolution and Intelligent Design written by Zondervan, and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution--or the broader topic of origins--has enormous relevance to how we understand the Christian faith and how we interpret Scripture. Four Views on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design presents the current "state of the conversation" about origins among evangelicals representing four key positions: Young Earth Creationism - Ken Ham (Answers in Genesis) Old Earth (Progressive) Creationism - Hugh Ross (Reasons to Believe) Evolutionary Creation - Deborah B. Haarsma (BioLogos) Intelligent Design - Stephen C. Meyer (The Discovery Institute) The contributors offer their best defense of their position addressing questions such as: What is your position on origins - understood broadly to include the physical universe, life, and human beings in particular? What do you take to be the most persuasive arguments in defense of your position? How do you demarcate and correlate evidence about origins from current science and from divine revelation? What hinges on answering these questions correctly? This book allows each contributor to not only present the case for his or her view, but also to critique and respond to the critiques of the other contributors, allowing you to compare their beliefs in an open forum setting to see where they overlap and where they differ.
Download or read book Why Young Earth Creationism Cannot Be True written by Lane Koster and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-27 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to show that there is another perspective on God's Creation that is a much better fit with both the teachings of the Bible, and the observations of science, than the view held by Young Earth Creationists. If you or someone you know has questions about the Bible and the age of the Earth and Universe, this book will answer many of your questions. The Bible makes it clear in Psalm 90 that God views time differently than we do. A thousand years to us is like yesterday to God, or 3 hours last night when we were asleep. Young Earth Creationists hold that the Earth is only 6000 years old, and that the Earth was created in six 24-hour days. This book presents 27 biblical and scientific reasons why this cannot be true. After God created the heavens and a not yet fully formed Earth empty of life, He took six of His days to make the Earth fully formed and full of life. According to Genesis, the heavens and the early Earth could be any age, before Day One begins. Genesis Two tells us that more happened between when God created Adam and when God brought Eve to Adam, than can fit into one day. A study of light shows it is not possible for light to reach us from distant stars and galaxies if the Universe is only 6000 years old. This challenges the Appearance of Age argument. Noah's Flood, 4500 years ago (as Young Earth Creationists claim), cannot possibly explain all the sedimentary rock, fossils, layers of ice, lake sediment layers, the Grand Canyon, and many other features we find on Earth. Then there are the Bristlecone Pine trees that are older than Creation, and grow on mountains that did not exist until after Noah's Flood. This book examines these claims, and many others, that contradict the Bible as well as other observations made here on Earth. We do well to examine these claims, so that we can be more effective in sharing the Christian Gospel with people around us.
Download or read book The Young Earth written by Dr. John D. Morris and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the earth billions of years old, or just thousands? Does it Matter? Did God create our world in six literal days, or did it evolve on its own over countless eons of time? The age of the earth - a key question in the creation/evolution debate - has been portrayed as an issue of science versus religion, but is it really that simple? The answers to these questions are vital to understanding not just earth science, but also the biblical record. Dr. John Morris - The Young Earth scientifically examines the evidence to see what the earth actually reveals about itself. This classic and definitive work, newly revised and expanded, demonstrates that the Bible can be trusted in questions of science and history. The Young Earth offers both compelling scientific analysis and effective biblical exposition. A powerful resource, it also includes a CD with PowerPoint presentations that illustrate such key concepts as salt levels in the oceans, the age of the atmosphere, the accumulation of ocean sediments, and much more. Great for presentations and personal study Organized for teaching to groups of all sizes Illustrated slides illuminate important points Scientifically, irrefutably, the truth of God's world proclaims the truth of God's Word.

Download or read book Coming to Grips With Genesis written by Dr. Terry Mortenson and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteen theological scholars address key topics related to the age of the earth, which is the crucial issue of debate in the church today regarding origins. Bringing to bear rigorous biblical, theological, and historical arguments in favor of a six-day creation, the global Flood, and a young earth, they also provide much-needed critiques of a number of contemporary old-earth interpretations of the book of Genesis. This fresh defense of the literal history of Genesis 1-11 nicely complements other studies which focus more on the scientific evidence of young-earth creationism. As such, this book can serve as a versatile supplement to other works, but is also designed to be used as a standalone text for seminary and Bible college professors and students, pastors, missionaries, and others who want in-depth apologetic resources. Coming to Grips with Genesis: Biblical Authority and the Age of the Earthincludes: Forewords by Dr. John MacArthur, President of the Master's Seminary and Senior Pastor of Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, CA; and the late Dr. Henry Morris, Founder and President Emeritus, Institute for Creation Research Detailed analysis of the verbs of Genesis 1 A defense of the Genesis 5 & 11 genealogies as strict chronologies Reasons for rejecting millions of years of death and natural evil before Adam's sin Careful reflection on Jesus' teachings regarding a young earth
Download or read book The Young Earth Creation Model written by Rawmatt With Team Sft and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the Young Earth Creation Model, everything from predictions, differences between the evolutionary model and the creation model. This book shows that the YEC model is far superior when it comes to science. No one can read this book without coming away knowing what we believe and why. I show the clear trajectory man and animal are headed in and its not what evolution teaches. I shows the clear contrast between the two models and detail exactly why ours is superior, without question. I show that through genetics we can prove Noah's Ark was a true event and happened recently.
Download or read book Redeeming Science written by Vern S. Poythress and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2006-10-13 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people think science is antagonistic to Christian belief. Science, it is said, shows that the universe is billions of years old, while the Bible says it is only thousands of years old. And some claim that science shows supernatural miracles are impossible. These and other points of contention cause some Christians to view science as a threat to their beliefs. Redeeming Science attempts to kindle our appreciation for science as it ought to be-science that could serve as a path for praising God and serving fellow human beings. Through examining the wonderfully complex and immutable laws of nature, author Vern Poythress explains, we ought to recognize the wisdom, care, and beauty of God. A Christian worldview restores a true response to science, where we praise the God who created nature and cares for it.
