We could discuss how the age of the fossil record is being used to claim that the Bible is in conflict with science. And, we would find that the people doing the dating are presupposing God, whom they do not believe in, is incapable of speeding up the decay rates. It is a very small God these people do not believe in. My God can do all things, even speed up the decay rate before He created man, Matt 19:26, “But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.” After all, He did not want to create humans until He had created all we would need to sustain life; until everything was in place to allow each of us to find our way to Him.
Can we trust the history written in the Bible? Recently, I was drawn to watch several videos on the “Old Earth” vs. “New Earth” controversy. I found two excellent videos on YouTube, one by an Astrophysicist/Cosmologist by the name of Dr. Hugh Ross and the other by an Applied Scientist/Biologist named Ken Ham. These two scientists believe in God and that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. They both also believe there is no conflict between God’s inspired Word and science. However, Ken Ham believes we can accept biblical history as fact. I am not going to discuss the scientific aspects of the proofs they outline to support their belief in the Bible, because their scientific knowledge m
The Bible is a collection of books written by some 40 authors over 1,500 years. How could 40 different writers spread over 1,500 years write such a cohesive work? They were being inspired by God, 2 Tim 3:16-17, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” The Bible tells us God is love, 1 Jn 4:8, “He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” Then, He teaches us how to love, Eph 5:25, “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;” How many women would like their man
Jn 1:1, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” He told us His Word existed from the beginning, even before time. Jn 1:14, “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” Is Jesus God’s Word, which became flesh? 2 Tim 3:16-17, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” Does His Word provide us with all we need to know to live a life filled with good works?
