HOW EVOLUTION HIDES REALITY, YOUR POTENTIAL, YOUR PURPOSE AND YOUR DESTINY
Why would Darwin and an old outdated theory from the age of the Steam Boat matter anymore? On the other hand, why would anyone dare to question Darwin and the ‘powers that be’ in academia and the media who still cling to this belief system from the 1850’s?
Is it really reasonable to buy into evolution while faith in God is unreasonable? Why did Darwin turn from the Seminary track he was on to turn his back on Christianity and pen the Origin of Species and the Decent of Man?
For that matter why do people turn their backs on God and the Church today? Because they want to hide their sinful ways and desires.
I assembled this work because I want to give you something rare and valuable. In fact, it is priceless. The question is: Will you accept it as wisdom or folly? My intent is to give you something you may never have seen before.
There is more to it than first meets the eye. You won’t find this wisdom in the Church, on TV or in the media. The reasons why have everything to do with you, those you love and your future. Let me just say here, there is a great purpose for your life. I don’t have all knowledge to give you, but what I do know is critical. It’s a matter of life or death.
We all have just 2 choices:
1. Either evolution is how we got here and there is no Creator God, no plan, no purpose, rhyme or reason for life and the universe has no explanation for its existence.
OR
2. There really is a Great Godwho built the whole universe and everything in it and therefore owns it all, including your life and mine, and God can do whatever he wants with it all.
Is Evolution just a stupid dead relic still haunting us from the past, or reality? And by evolution I mean the progression of a pre-existing single celled ancestor into man by the accidental collocation of chemicals and molecules which emerged into mankind over the course of millions of years. To put it the way one Creationist says it: ‘From the goo to you, via the zoo.’
Evolution really does not address how the universe came to be, just life. To put it another way, evolution attempts to explain the origin of life, not the origin of the universe. Evolution says all life forms have a single common ancestor. The big question is ‘Is that really the way the world works? And just who or what is this ‘ancestor’?
It’s not that proponents of either side aren’t intelligent, articulate people. In fact, evolutionists, atheists, agnostics and anti-theists are some of the most brilliant minds on the planet. Many of them know more about the Bible than most Christians these days. The question should be why? Why do we believe what we believe is really, really real? We all believe what we believe because we have good reason. Evolutionists promote evolution because it fits with the style of life they prefer to live. The same is true for Creationists. But, which ones have the real picture? Which one has the truth? They can’t both be true.
Evolutionists do not like to retain God in their knowledge because he interferes with what they want to do. Creationists do not want to leave God out because they trust his promises to bring them life, health, peace, rest and a real future after this life. Evolution can’t offer much. To them it’s eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we die. God is big enough to allow choice. We will never be forced by God to love him, lest our love would be faked or forced. That would not even be love. We must choose to love him and accept him by our own volition. I cannot do this for you. And you cannot do it for anyone else.
Is evolution the world’s biggest and most ridiculous hoax ever foisted off on mankind?
Is there a Great Creator God instead, who made all life and the entire universe? Jesus haters claim he’s only a fairytale. What do you think? If Jesus is real, he is God and we better pay close attention to what he said. If Jesus is real, then Evolution is just another screwy cult. Additionally, if Jesus is God, then all religions are useless and doomed to sudden and permanent extinction, according to the Bible…
It seems to me followers of Darwin are made when Christians let them down. The Church has failed them or abused them in some way, either real or perceived. The church—any denomination—needs fixing. The trouble is the Christians inside. They don’t act like their Leader. What happened to the truth?
If Jesus is real, then Darwin was wrong. If Darwinian evolution is accurate and real, then Jesus is not whom he claimed to be as Creator and God. Young people are leaving Jesus behind to follow Darwin and his followers. Why? Because the oldsters cannot snow them with meaningless church-speak. They are much too smart to be duped by their parents’ religion, once they can think for themselves and explore the Bible for themselves; at least this seems to be the prevailing attitude. In school they are being taught evolution is the way we all arrived here on earth and that religion is merely a way people invented to feel good about themselves. But to me, evolutionism is just one more form of religion that needs to go away.
Church tradition has lost all meaning for these young people. But, hopefully, they won’t throw the baby out with the bath water. And they will eventually come to their senses about Jesus and their future, because their lives depend on it as I will try to make clear in the coming PARTs.
So, what does Darwin have to offer that is better or more beneficial than Jesus? If Darwin is right, Jesus is no God and evolution created all life. If Jesus is real, Darwin and his followers are the ones in the wrong.
What are young people seeking that the church is not giving them? They are smart and dad’s standard old ‘party line’ church is no longer appealing. In their view, the doctrines their old church teaches are not real, but imaginary, so why would they stay? Evolution offers freedom to live the lifestyle of choice, without God looking over their every move with a disapproving gaze. No God, no guilt. It’s as simple as that.
But, are we who fit that category throwing out the baby with the bath water? The church is messed up, granted, but at least it is trying to help people. Its preachers are paid or rejected depending on how well he teaches the same old party line doctrines with a ‘new’ twist geared for today. But young people see through this. When they do their research, ancient traditions and rituals do nothing for them.
But what if…
What if you could find a treasure in the Bible that you could access that would change the course of your life forever? What if you could finally understand the will of God for your life? What if you could know what in the universe God is up to? What if you could envision the greatest project ever devised and discover that it involves you directly?
What if you found out you were destined for greatness far beyond fame, fortune, power, people and pleasure? What would you think if you found out you have such a magnificent purpose in living that nothing else mattered to you anymore? What if the thing you discovered became so exciting, so thrilling, so infectious, it consumed you to the point it’s all you thought about?
What if you could see the true destiny God has in store for you and it far exceeded you greatest expectations?
If you are like me, it changes everything. I have a new lease on life; one that has no expiration date. I’ve replaced my ‘world view’ with a brand new dimension of my faith. I call it my ‘universe view’. It’s as if suddenly I can now see the future on the grand scale of the entire universe. My true destiny and the reason God established the heavens and made billions of solar systems in outer space for an astonishing reason I can have a part of. It beats every other scenario I’ve ever heard about the destiny of mankind or 'Heaven'.
In one fell swoop, it answers all my questions. It evaporated all my doubts. It removed my fear of the future. I can see clearly the road ahead now, and it looks great… in fact, it looks magnificent! Many nights I can’t sleep for thinking about it. To me, it’s the most thrilling, fascinating, joy-filled hope imaginable. And to realize it involves and includes me is astonishing. It’s almost too good to be real, yet I have zero doubt. I can’t wait for tomorrow.
All that is what you are about to encounter here. May God get you excited as he has me. By the way, please tell everyone you can about this.
I only hope after this you WILL be able to sleep nights.
But let’s face it, being a skeptic is now normal.
It’s just a matter of what to be skeptical about. Should I be skeptical about evolutionist dogma or religious dogma or both? (As for me: both). Even the Bible instructs: ‘Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.’ (1 Thessalonians 5:21). I don’t want someone else to tell me what to believe; I must prove it for myself.
I was reared in a Christian environment and I am grateful for that, but when I became a teenager and left home at seventeen, I quit going to church. I found no satisfying answers to the major questions of life there. And I had to find the answers. How about you?
Is there more to this life than the Earth and our mere 70 year life span on it? Why are there so many stars out there? Will mankind go out there someday? Why are we here? How did we get here? Where are we going? Who or what made us?
Do we have a purpose and if so, what is it? Is there a God who really is our Creator? If there is, what does he expect from us? What is death? Is there an ‘afterlife’? Do people really ‘live forever’ no matter what choices we make? Is there a ‘Heaven’? What about ‘Hell’? Does it really matter what we do in this world? Where does morality come from? How did we get our minds? What is our true destiny?
It has been reported that nearly 85% of ‘Christian’ kids quit church when they leave the nest.
YouTube® is full of such kids going over to the ‘other side’ and they are proud of it. They brag about how they publicly reject the Holy Spirit in their pompous defiance. They are trying to create a movement among our youth, calling it the ‘Un-baptising Tour’.
I watch scores of videos uploaded by atheists like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Chris Hitchens, Eugenie Scott and many less famous proponents of evolutionary theory. Hoping to find proofs there and real repeatable scientific facts, I am frustrated with only empty conjecture. Evolution is bankrupt scientifically. I say this because it has zero real scientific proof. It is not testable. It is not repeatable. It is not verifiable. It is illegitimate in my view. Bone chips do not come with labels. They date and name objects into fit their evolutionary bias and that is not science, but fantasy. I, for one, am fed up with it.
What I see is a common thread running through all evolutionists: emptiness, anger, arrogance, hostility, use of foul and vulgar language, double-standards, purposelessness, meaninglessness, hopelessness and a gigantic let down with no future. All form and no substance. There are numerable questions, yet they cannot adequately reply, though they are good at ducking the real issues, while ridiculing those who bring them, they are a disgrace to real science.
My answers to the deep questions of life, like meaning, purpose and future, would not be found there either. Regardless of our World View, we all need hope. We need to believe mankind will have a future, that our children will have a decent world to live in and that mankind will not go extinct. But it sure looks like we are headed in the wrong direction. Will there be a World War Three and if so, will there be any survivors? How can our family be protected?
What hope do you, personally, have for a future?
What do you think it will look like? Will mankind get through and if so, how? Will Oil play a crucial role? If so, what? Will Islam rule that world to come? Will American freedom disappear? Do we really have a destiny worth living for? Is there a God? If so, does he care about all the troubles on earth? Will he do something to stop our downward spiral into oblivion we seem to be on? Is the Holy Bible really his word? If so, does it give concrete answers to life’s biggest questions?
What does your worldview look like? Do you have a good grasp on the reality of our volatile world? If you have your eyes open, you can see it is getting darker and more terrifying by the day? WW3 seems to be edging nearer with every news report. Things are heating up in the Middle East. The world seems to be plunging into darkness. World economies are failing. Hope is diminishing. The future seems to be evermore foreboding.
What is the real truth?
Is there good reason to hope for a brighter future? Where can we find the truth about what is really happening and where can we turn to find some good news for a change? The answers lie in the crux of the matter: If Jesus is real, then what?
Christians teach that Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and sacrificed himself for us that we might be ransomed through his shed blood to God the Father. Further, Jesus is the Great Creator God of all Creation as the Bible states and he has a great plan for your life.
Evolution proponents teach that it is really the way the life came to be and there is no purpose for your life. If evolution is how we came to be, therefore you have no purpose, no meaning in life and no future.
Other religions teach Reincarnation or that we will turn into gods one day and fly off to the Mother Planet from whence we came. New Agers teach that we are all equal gods or that there are ‘many paths to God.’
Which is correct? Can we know for sure? Where does the evidence point? Let’s find out…
Evolution proponents say: ‘The entire universe was once compressed into a sphere smaller than the period at the end of this sentence. It became unstable and exploded into everything at the ‘Big Bang’ for no apparent reason, caused by nothing for no purpose and came on its own accord without any help from a god and suddenly we have the universe and all things therein.’ And why would anyone want that anyway? It has no future and no hope.
Evolution seems to be just another superstitious man-made religion to get rid of guilt. With nothing as its god, nowhere as its destiny and only oblivion as its future evolution is hopeless. I too once thought it was true, but no more. The media and the university cannot tell me what to believe. It just doesn’t add up, regardless of carefully contrived ‘arguments. Proponents always have some clever come-back. It shows where they are coming from.
But their entire house of cards has many flaws. It has no proof, zero hard evidence and nothing but fantasy and empty rhetoric on which to base its faith. It is amazing adults can buy into it. It should have gone out by the road with yesterday’s garbage. How can otherwise ‘educated’ people still insist on embracing such a myth from the 1850’s in our ‘enlightened’ age? It’s embarrassing and it is not scientific.
Adherents claim the ‘o-ness’ is on the Creationists to ‘prove it’. If the burden of proof is on the Creationists to prove God exists, then it follows that the burden of proof lies with the Evolutionists to prove God doesn’t.
Fine, that’s easy. Just look around. Check your pulse. Do you exist? Can you think? Can you learn? Can you speak? If so, you must have a Creator. You had nothing to do with it. You and I cannot build a living thing; not even a blade of grass. Science and Math are in everything. Science is Observation, Experimentation, Replication and Notation. The math is probability. Evolution cannot be Science because there is zero evidence, though proponents claim they have it. Let’s see them reproduce it.
Fruit Flies don’t become horses, even if they had millions of years to do it. Lions don’t become fish. Amebas don’t morph into humans.
There is no such thing as Reincarnation where, when you die, you come back as a Mosquito. And no ‘little Green Men’ from outer space deposited the first life on Earth and then returned without a trace. Evolutionists call this Trans-spermia. Some of them even try to use this explanation. Where’s the evidence for any of this pre-school fantasy? And it’s embarrassing for adults to behave this way.
When people start believing and reacting to their imaginings as though they were reality, psychoanalysts call them ‘neurotic’. Neurosis is stupid behavior by non-stupid people. They have a mental illness. This is even more so when these poor sick folks start accusing their caregivers of having the disease. But that is what evolutionists do.
The essence of what they believe:
You may find evolutionary contrarians who refute me, but here's what evolutionists seem to be saying: ‘Nothing suddenly exploded into everything at the ‘Big Bang’. This limitless explosion took billions of years to explode. Its results are billions of perfectly round suns and worlds revolving in perfect order and harmony throughout the universe. Among these worlds is our Earth, which is exquisitely fine- tuned to support all life, which arose out of nothing, just because it wanted to exist. These are just things that happen by chance from time to time. They are totally devoid of purpose, meaning and cause. If they have any future, it will be the result of blind chance and happenstance.’ If all of that begins to look like foolishness, I would agree.
In the beginning, there was absolute nothing. Then, just because it wanted to, nothing suddenly exploded into everything over millions of years at the ‘Big Bang’. Then there was everything? Do explosions cause order and beauty or chaos and ruin? Have you ever seen an explosion take billions of years? Where’s their logic?
Does any of that make good sense to you?! Do explosions create anything good? Have you ever seen an explosion? Is shrapnel and debris pretty, round, well ordered and designed? Did the ‘Big Bang’ require billions of years to ‘explode’? Do explosions in print shops result in Encyclopedias?
This is what the high priests of Evolution seem to want us to believe that. Does that make good sense to you? Is that what they call ‘science and reason’? If science is about provability, facts and evidence, where is it? And why do they want us to believe science is more interested in theory than facts? What makes them think a hypothesis or theory is more important than an established scientific fact or law?
But so-called ‘science’ ignores its own published methodology when it comes to evolution.
Why? Is Darwin such a ‘god’ no teacher can criticize him and keep their teaching job? Is that academic freedom? Hardly. It’s like a preacher criticizing the church’s doctrine of a conscious eternity in Hell fire. It’s too sacred. It’s tied directly to their income, so back off. If you prove it false, you will be labeled a heretic and be excommunicated. Additionally, if you were to try this, you would be removing their only ‘right’ to feel superior over the sinner. They would be in the same boat as all the rest of us sinners. It is dangerous, explosive ground. I speak from experience, but I digress.
What do you imagine caused the design of a human body? What caused the design of the powerful forces of Physics that work together as a congruous design and function as a unit? I’m talking about the entire Universe working together in harmony… How did it all come into being? How does it all keep working?
This is the Scientific Method:
Observe and offer a question.
Research the matter
Construct a Hypothesis
Test your Hypothesis by repeatable Experiment
Analyze your Data and draw conclusions based on the real proof
Establish it as a fact in a publication reviewed by others in the Scientific Community Communicate your facts to the rest of the world via media
The Laws of Science, Energy, Chemistry, Math, Genetics, indeed all the systems of every life form including the Reproductive, the Circulatory, the Pulmonary, the Skeletal, the Skin, the Nervous System, the Endocrine System, the Organs, the Muscular, the Digestive Systems, etc. indicate design.
Moreover, they all work together harmoniously to create the whole man and had to all be created instantaneously or else we would have died instantly indicate we were created by a Power way beyond the meager accidental and wimpy ‘power’ of evolution. Can we but conclude that evolution is stupid? Life is far too complicated for it to arise on its own, out of nothing but dead matter.
The Christian World View
Let’s see if Christianity’s explanation makes more sense. Does the Bible really say Jesus is the Creator?
John 1:1 – ‘In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.’
Colossians 1:14 – ‘(This is he) In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.’
Philippians 2:6 ‘Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.’
Here is what God, the God of the Bible says about skeptics and atheists:
Psalms 14:1 ‘The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’ They are corrupt; they have done abominable works. There is none that does good.’
Romans 1:19 ‘Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever.’
Isaiah 41:21 ‘Produce your cause, says the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, says the King of Jacob. 22 Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen (in the immediate future?): let them show the former things, what they are, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come (in the distant future?). 23 Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods: yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. 24 Behold, you are of nothing, and your work of naught: an abomination is he that chooses you.’
The God of the Bible claims Jesus IS the Creator of all that we can see and know.
He declares that Jesus shall be preeminent, meaning above all. It says Jesus is permanently alive and infinitely powerful because he can rescue all of mankind and save them from certain extinction. It goes on to say Jesus is the Head of the Body called ‘the church’. And that, at the name of Jesus, EVERY knee shall bow to him and EVERY tongue will confess that he is Ruler of all.
This God MOCKS evolutionists, atheists, anti-theists, skeptics and all those who refuse to believe. He calls them ‘fools’. He says they change truth into lies, so they can free themselves from feeling guilty for indulging in sin. Isn’t that the whole reason Religions were created in the first place? Evolution is just another one.
According to the God of the Bible, non-believers worship themselves or some ‘thing’ instead of God, the One who made all things. He says they can’t do anything good.
They can’t tell us anything about the past including how and why we got here. He adds they can’t see passed their noses to predict future things either. He tops it all with the fact they are nothing at all and their work is a big fat zero… NOTHING! All the books, speeches, tours, debates, TV appearances, etc. amount to nothing at all!
God claims he owns everything in the universe including you and me. How dare he? He thinks he owns the place. He says he built it all and is therefore entitled to do with it whatever he pleases. He has all the rights. We do not.
The late Christopher Hitchens, who was one of the high priests of evolution, said in his book ‘god is not great’, that the God of the Bible doesn’t even exist. He spurned the Holy One of Israel, the One who claims rule over all life, including his. He made his choice. I think he chose poorly. The question is: ‘Who are you going to believe?’
Are you going to believe an angry, hostile, arrogant man who was mad at God for exercising his rights over his own creation or God himself? How can one get mad at a God who he thinks doesn't even exist? We all serve some one or some thing, even if it’s only ourselves. Who are you going to serve with your life? Is this life all there is or do we have a future beyond? Did we come from a rock or from a Powerful God? Are you willing to entertain the proof?
Where does the Evidence lead and what about your world view or lifestyle?
This should be any honest persons’ modus operandi: to follow wherever the evidence leads them and follow an accurate mind set or point of view. Let’s be honest about it and not follow any personal pre-conceived notions as to how the world works or what reality is. Every other way is less than honest. Follow the evidence honestly, not trying to cling to one’s own ways or lifestyle. Simple, not complicated. Just do it. If the evidence, once honestly and thoroughly evaluated, leads to evolution, then so be it. That would mean evolution is god and there is no real purpose for living, but at least you will have given it your best shot.
But in reality, we all believe in a whole lot of things we cannot see, like electricity, radio waves, microwaves, magnetism, gravity, centrifugal force and inertia, just to name a few. The real issue is a matter of what floats your boat: lifestyle. How do you choose to live? Your beliefs must support and uphold how you choose to live.
If, on the other hand, we find that the evidence leads us to the conclusion that, although we cannot see him, there really IS a God and we can submit our lifestyle to him, then so be it. Let’s just be honest and do it. It won’t hurt and it will open up a whole new way of life.
Does organized religion hold any promise?
Is that where we will find the truth, meaning and purpose in life? Do we really have a purpose, a real destiny and a future beyond this present temporal existence or not? Will we find it if we sort through the millions of ideologies or religions of the world? Will the Christian religion (which may or may not be real Christianity) tell us?
After many years of searching them, I draw this conclusion: None of them got it right. Religions are manmade attempts to solve the annoying problem of guilt. Evolution is just one of them, except this one is without a god. They are their own gods. Or nothing is god. The real issue is they don’t want someone telling them what to do or how to live.
But the question still is not solved, even through denial that there is a Creator God. It takes more than the evidence; it takes one’s outlook on life itself plus the evidence. Beliefs matter. I’m saying we wouldn’t even have minds to believe with, if they didn’t originate with a greater Creator who designed, planned, built and instilled them in us from the very beginning. Thought, memory, creativity, attitudes, emotions, understanding, wisdom, prowess, determination and all other mental powers do not arise out of chemistry.
Is there a God who made all the worlds out there and if he does exist, does he care about us? Does the answer reside in Christianity; that is authentic Christianity? I’m not including tradition or ritual. I’m talking about the straight Biblical Christ-seeking and truth-only kind that’s not just for show. They live it on a daily basis. They want to know: does Jesus Christ exist, can I prove it beyond any reasonable doubt and does he care about me and my future? It’s what matters to them and you can tell.
If he is real and he IS God, why would I fight against him?
If the Bible is indeed his word, then this God really IS great and we should take heed if we want to really live. This God says and proves in the Bible’s pages that he loves us and gave his life’s blood that we might have permanent life of the same kind he enjoys, full of joy, creativity and endless delight in the process of building worlds and filling them with life.
This Bible is full benefits for us from this great God. Notice the fruits of his Spirit mentioned in Galatians 5:22: ‘The fruits of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness and self control.’ We want all our neighbors to show them to us.
Who doesn’t want these things?
Reality check: the universe, the solar system, the earth and all life is undeniably beautiful and all of it is sustained in harmony. The things of God are clearly seen by the things that are made so that the skeptics are without excuse, according to Romans 1:19 through 32.
Let’s get to the real science that is true for all people in all places at all times. To me, the idea of the ‘big bang’ as the explosion of a dot no bigger than the period at the end of this sentence is un-provable, unbelievable, given the sheer size of the universe. This earthbound relic of an idea should be rejected out of hand and abandoned. We are just beginning to get a glimpse of a tiny fraction of the universe. There are billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars systems and multiple billions of planets within them!
I think scientists will someday learn that each galaxy, of which there are billions, was individually created by the All-powerful Creator God with a ‘big bang’ or ‘sudden burst’ of his own limitless energy solidifying into matter. That’s why astronomers are finding new galaxies where there was nothing there the week before and they find them at the rate of about one per week.
God is still out there building worlds! He is not yet finished with the greatest project he ever conceived. And he’s not done with you and me and the planet we live on. He will return in person and straighten out the mess we’re about to make of it. (See Part Three.) Being a part of it all is the reason you were born, as you will see later. That’s part of the magic of thinking big about God.
To me, the evidence points toward a Creator, but you must research and then decide for yourself. ‘We all serve someone.’ according to the old Bob Dylan song. The Big Question is WHO: God? Ourselves? The Devil? Or someone else?
The Fruits of Evolution
Because Mind can only come from a Greater Mind and evolution says ‘No, it comes with life by accident.’ If it comes so easily, go ahead: make one! Put in the emotions, the intelligence, the creative prowess, the memory, the ability to learn, calculate, speak or teach, just to name a few of the powers of our minds.
Think about it. Does it make good sense to you that it all came from rocks, chemistry, physics, millions of years of time, the combination of all so-called sciences or from nothing at all? Not to me! I’d much rather believe mankind was built in the image of the Great Mind of God who made and sustains the entire universe, as it is written in Genesis 1:1. Mind can only come from pre-existing mind.
Search your feelings… in your heart you know better.
Q. Believers in Jesus say ‘Evolution is evidence bankrupt!’ Why? A. There simply isn’t any real empirical evidence. Evolutionists have fabricated their own ‘evidence’ to make evolution seem plausible. They manufacture their own weird scientific sounding words in Latin-ese language in order to sound scientific. But is creative word processing proof that there is no God? No, of course not. They have got to do much better than that to convince me.
Some evolutionists are not interested in truth. As I said before, some evolutionists value theories higher and account them more valuable than facts. That is not science. That is make-believe science at best. Kids are smarter than that and they don’t buy this nonsense. Adults, especially scientists, shouldn’t buy it either. True science is honest people in search of provable, repeatable and testable facts. (See Romans 1:19-31.)
Show me the proof, or you are either dishonest or not scientific!
Q. According to Christians, thousands of years ago the God of the Bible predicted the advent of Atheism, Anti-theism and Evolution. This God had men write his words down so we could read them. He gets in the face of Darwinists and even calls them names like ‘fools’ and ‘nothings’. Isn’t this evidence that the God of the Bible is alive and real?
A. Notice 2 PE 3:3- 7 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: 2 That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Savior: 3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 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.
5 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: 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Then take note of this powerful indictment directly from God recorded in Isaiah 41 against the skeptics: 21 ‘Produce your cause, says the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, says the King of Jacob. 22 Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they were, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. 23 Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods: yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. 24 Behold, you are of nothing, and your work of naught: an abomination is he that chooses you.’
Atheists, Evolutionists and the like have NO FUTURE. This life, this time is all they have and all they apparently want. They never give ‘eternity’ a second thought. They don’t care about it. Thing is, they are wasting the only chance they may have for a future. Their only purpose in life is the same as a dog or any other animal: to eat, drink and reproduce.
Why settle for that drop-in-the-bucket mundane existence when the truth has vast oceans of powerful living to offer?
Let’s get serious. There is a real Day of Judgment coming. Every human who has ever lived will be resurrected to face this day. There they will stand before the One who has all judgment committed to him and that is none other than Jesus Christ. We all will account for every idle word we have ever spoken.
Every knee will bow to him. Every eye will see him. Every tongue will confess the he is LORD OF ALL. Those who refuse to acknowledge him will die the death and stay dead for all time to come. They will not be awake, but asleep in the blackness of death from then on and forever. The very memory of them will fade away and they will remain forgotten for all time. The fame they acquired in this life will be discarded and it will fade into oblivion.
They could have had wonderful life, a future and real power to help people. But no, they’d rather die than acknowledge Jesus as Lord. How sad and how foolish! What a waste! May I suggest we all choose wisely, while there is still time.
So, what is the Fruit of true Christianity vs. the Fruit of Evolution?
Many theologians blame the holocaust on evolution because Hitler and his henchmen were faithful evolutionary practitioners. Human life was regarded as cheap. The weak were expendable and not worthy of life, so they murdered them relentlessly and without pity.
To be fair, the Catholic Church coerced the Roman army to exterminate multiple thousands of Muslims in an effort to wipe them out completely. But could the practice of murdering those of another race or creed be in the ‘Christian’ category? No, of course not. Jesus said we should ‘love our enemies’, not kill them.
Now an atheist may say: ‘Well, your God, the God of the Bible is the greatest killer of all.’ My answer to that is: Don’t forget who owns the planet and everything else. He has the right to do whatever he wants with his own stuff and that includes all human beings, you and me not withstanding. We are bought with a price and we are not our own. Whatever we have, we have been given by him who owns everything.
Let us learn to be thankful, for a change. But let’s compare the overall fruits of the rest of Christendom with the fruits of evolution:
a. How many orphanages built? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
b. How many hungry fed? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
c. How many homeless housed? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
d. How many water wells dug? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
e. How many schools established? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
f. How many sick have been treated? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
g. How many prisoners visited? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
h. How many strangers take in? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
i. How many naked clothed? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
j. How much uplifting Godly music created? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
k. How many poor enriched with food, clothing, shelter or comfort of some kind? Christianity: Thousands or millions
Evolution: Zero
l. How many hopeless encouraged with good news and with a real future we can depend on? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
Conclusion: Evolution and friends add up to a big fat ZERO.
All their pomp and arrogance is of no real or lasting value at all. But to be fair, many of them do kind things for people all the time. But they do it because they have a heart in them to do it, even though they may not know why they want to. Chemistry is not the reason. Collocations of molecules are not the reason. It’s because they have instilled in them a little bit of God.
What is Evolution and are there any benefits from it?
Boil away all the fluff and Evolution is: No God, no Guilt! Empirical science is only that which can be tested and repeated by experiment.
Forensic science is life science dating back to the beginning of a life form. Evolution, as the method of creation of life doesn’t qualify as any kind of science. It is philosophy bordering on a religion because it required the belief in that which cannot be seen, felt, touched, tasted or measured by any means. It’s all just theory and conjecture that cannot in any way be verified. Fossils don’t come with dates.
Bottom line: Evolutionists have a good reason for holding to their belief system. It is, like all religions, to absolve themselves from guilt. Get rid of God and you get rid of guilt. I’d rather keep the guilt because I can relieve myself of it by asking God for forgiveness. That protects me and reassures me and I need that. It also guarantees me that I have a future because of him and that it is secure and sure. God cannot lie, therefore, we are safe. I like safe, thank you God!
Why would Darwin and an old outdated theory from the age of the Steam Boat matter anymore? On the other hand, why would anyone dare to question Darwin and the ‘powers that be’ in academia and the media who still cling to this belief system from the 1850’s?
Is it really reasonable to buy into evolution while faith in God is unreasonable? Why did Darwin turn from the Seminary track he was on to turn his back on Christianity and pen the Origin of Species and the Decent of Man?
For that matter why do people turn their backs on God and the Church today? Because they want to hide their sinful ways and desires.
I assembled this work because I want to give you something rare and valuable. In fact, it is priceless. The question is: Will you accept it as wisdom or folly? My intent is to give you something you may never have seen before.
There is more to it than first meets the eye. You won’t find this wisdom in the Church, on TV or in the media. The reasons why have everything to do with you, those you love and your future. Let me just say here, there is a great purpose for your life. I don’t have all knowledge to give you, but what I do know is critical. It’s a matter of life or death.
We all have just 2 choices:
1. Either evolution is how we got here and there is no Creator God, no plan, no purpose, rhyme or reason for life and the universe has no explanation for its existence.
OR
2. There really is a Great Godwho built the whole universe and everything in it and therefore owns it all, including your life and mine, and God can do whatever he wants with it all.
Is Evolution just a stupid dead relic still haunting us from the past, or reality? And by evolution I mean the progression of a pre-existing single celled ancestor into man by the accidental collocation of chemicals and molecules which emerged into mankind over the course of millions of years. To put it the way one Creationist says it: ‘From the goo to you, via the zoo.’
Evolution really does not address how the universe came to be, just life. To put it another way, evolution attempts to explain the origin of life, not the origin of the universe. Evolution says all life forms have a single common ancestor. The big question is ‘Is that really the way the world works? And just who or what is this ‘ancestor’?
It’s not that proponents of either side aren’t intelligent, articulate people. In fact, evolutionists, atheists, agnostics and anti-theists are some of the most brilliant minds on the planet. Many of them know more about the Bible than most Christians these days. The question should be why? Why do we believe what we believe is really, really real? We all believe what we believe because we have good reason. Evolutionists promote evolution because it fits with the style of life they prefer to live. The same is true for Creationists. But, which ones have the real picture? Which one has the truth? They can’t both be true.
Evolutionists do not like to retain God in their knowledge because he interferes with what they want to do. Creationists do not want to leave God out because they trust his promises to bring them life, health, peace, rest and a real future after this life. Evolution can’t offer much. To them it’s eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow we die. God is big enough to allow choice. We will never be forced by God to love him, lest our love would be faked or forced. That would not even be love. We must choose to love him and accept him by our own volition. I cannot do this for you. And you cannot do it for anyone else.
Is evolution the world’s biggest and most ridiculous hoax ever foisted off on mankind?
Is there a Great Creator God instead, who made all life and the entire universe? Jesus haters claim he’s only a fairytale. What do you think? If Jesus is real, he is God and we better pay close attention to what he said. If Jesus is real, then Evolution is just another screwy cult. Additionally, if Jesus is God, then all religions are useless and doomed to sudden and permanent extinction, according to the Bible…
It seems to me followers of Darwin are made when Christians let them down. The Church has failed them or abused them in some way, either real or perceived. The church—any denomination—needs fixing. The trouble is the Christians inside. They don’t act like their Leader. What happened to the truth?
If Jesus is real, then Darwin was wrong. If Darwinian evolution is accurate and real, then Jesus is not whom he claimed to be as Creator and God. Young people are leaving Jesus behind to follow Darwin and his followers. Why? Because the oldsters cannot snow them with meaningless church-speak. They are much too smart to be duped by their parents’ religion, once they can think for themselves and explore the Bible for themselves; at least this seems to be the prevailing attitude. In school they are being taught evolution is the way we all arrived here on earth and that religion is merely a way people invented to feel good about themselves. But to me, evolutionism is just one more form of religion that needs to go away.
Church tradition has lost all meaning for these young people. But, hopefully, they won’t throw the baby out with the bath water. And they will eventually come to their senses about Jesus and their future, because their lives depend on it as I will try to make clear in the coming PARTs.
So, what does Darwin have to offer that is better or more beneficial than Jesus? If Darwin is right, Jesus is no God and evolution created all life. If Jesus is real, Darwin and his followers are the ones in the wrong.
What are young people seeking that the church is not giving them? They are smart and dad’s standard old ‘party line’ church is no longer appealing. In their view, the doctrines their old church teaches are not real, but imaginary, so why would they stay? Evolution offers freedom to live the lifestyle of choice, without God looking over their every move with a disapproving gaze. No God, no guilt. It’s as simple as that.
But, are we who fit that category throwing out the baby with the bath water? The church is messed up, granted, but at least it is trying to help people. Its preachers are paid or rejected depending on how well he teaches the same old party line doctrines with a ‘new’ twist geared for today. But young people see through this. When they do their research, ancient traditions and rituals do nothing for them.
But what if…
What if you could find a treasure in the Bible that you could access that would change the course of your life forever? What if you could finally understand the will of God for your life? What if you could know what in the universe God is up to? What if you could envision the greatest project ever devised and discover that it involves you directly?
What if you found out you were destined for greatness far beyond fame, fortune, power, people and pleasure? What would you think if you found out you have such a magnificent purpose in living that nothing else mattered to you anymore? What if the thing you discovered became so exciting, so thrilling, so infectious, it consumed you to the point it’s all you thought about?
What if you could see the true destiny God has in store for you and it far exceeded you greatest expectations?
If you are like me, it changes everything. I have a new lease on life; one that has no expiration date. I’ve replaced my ‘world view’ with a brand new dimension of my faith. I call it my ‘universe view’. It’s as if suddenly I can now see the future on the grand scale of the entire universe. My true destiny and the reason God established the heavens and made billions of solar systems in outer space for an astonishing reason I can have a part of. It beats every other scenario I’ve ever heard about the destiny of mankind or 'Heaven'.
In one fell swoop, it answers all my questions. It evaporated all my doubts. It removed my fear of the future. I can see clearly the road ahead now, and it looks great… in fact, it looks magnificent! Many nights I can’t sleep for thinking about it. To me, it’s the most thrilling, fascinating, joy-filled hope imaginable. And to realize it involves and includes me is astonishing. It’s almost too good to be real, yet I have zero doubt. I can’t wait for tomorrow.
All that is what you are about to encounter here. May God get you excited as he has me. By the way, please tell everyone you can about this.
I only hope after this you WILL be able to sleep nights.
But let’s face it, being a skeptic is now normal.
It’s just a matter of what to be skeptical about. Should I be skeptical about evolutionist dogma or religious dogma or both? (As for me: both). Even the Bible instructs: ‘Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.’ (1 Thessalonians 5:21). I don’t want someone else to tell me what to believe; I must prove it for myself.
I was reared in a Christian environment and I am grateful for that, but when I became a teenager and left home at seventeen, I quit going to church. I found no satisfying answers to the major questions of life there. And I had to find the answers. How about you?
Is there more to this life than the Earth and our mere 70 year life span on it? Why are there so many stars out there? Will mankind go out there someday? Why are we here? How did we get here? Where are we going? Who or what made us?
Do we have a purpose and if so, what is it? Is there a God who really is our Creator? If there is, what does he expect from us? What is death? Is there an ‘afterlife’? Do people really ‘live forever’ no matter what choices we make? Is there a ‘Heaven’? What about ‘Hell’? Does it really matter what we do in this world? Where does morality come from? How did we get our minds? What is our true destiny?
It has been reported that nearly 85% of ‘Christian’ kids quit church when they leave the nest.
YouTube® is full of such kids going over to the ‘other side’ and they are proud of it. They brag about how they publicly reject the Holy Spirit in their pompous defiance. They are trying to create a movement among our youth, calling it the ‘Un-baptising Tour’.
I watch scores of videos uploaded by atheists like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Chris Hitchens, Eugenie Scott and many less famous proponents of evolutionary theory. Hoping to find proofs there and real repeatable scientific facts, I am frustrated with only empty conjecture. Evolution is bankrupt scientifically. I say this because it has zero real scientific proof. It is not testable. It is not repeatable. It is not verifiable. It is illegitimate in my view. Bone chips do not come with labels. They date and name objects into fit their evolutionary bias and that is not science, but fantasy. I, for one, am fed up with it.
What I see is a common thread running through all evolutionists: emptiness, anger, arrogance, hostility, use of foul and vulgar language, double-standards, purposelessness, meaninglessness, hopelessness and a gigantic let down with no future. All form and no substance. There are numerable questions, yet they cannot adequately reply, though they are good at ducking the real issues, while ridiculing those who bring them, they are a disgrace to real science.
My answers to the deep questions of life, like meaning, purpose and future, would not be found there either. Regardless of our World View, we all need hope. We need to believe mankind will have a future, that our children will have a decent world to live in and that mankind will not go extinct. But it sure looks like we are headed in the wrong direction. Will there be a World War Three and if so, will there be any survivors? How can our family be protected?
What hope do you, personally, have for a future?
What do you think it will look like? Will mankind get through and if so, how? Will Oil play a crucial role? If so, what? Will Islam rule that world to come? Will American freedom disappear? Do we really have a destiny worth living for? Is there a God? If so, does he care about all the troubles on earth? Will he do something to stop our downward spiral into oblivion we seem to be on? Is the Holy Bible really his word? If so, does it give concrete answers to life’s biggest questions?
What does your worldview look like? Do you have a good grasp on the reality of our volatile world? If you have your eyes open, you can see it is getting darker and more terrifying by the day? WW3 seems to be edging nearer with every news report. Things are heating up in the Middle East. The world seems to be plunging into darkness. World economies are failing. Hope is diminishing. The future seems to be evermore foreboding.
What is the real truth?
Is there good reason to hope for a brighter future? Where can we find the truth about what is really happening and where can we turn to find some good news for a change? The answers lie in the crux of the matter: If Jesus is real, then what?
Christians teach that Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and sacrificed himself for us that we might be ransomed through his shed blood to God the Father. Further, Jesus is the Great Creator God of all Creation as the Bible states and he has a great plan for your life.
Evolution proponents teach that it is really the way the life came to be and there is no purpose for your life. If evolution is how we came to be, therefore you have no purpose, no meaning in life and no future.
Other religions teach Reincarnation or that we will turn into gods one day and fly off to the Mother Planet from whence we came. New Agers teach that we are all equal gods or that there are ‘many paths to God.’
Which is correct? Can we know for sure? Where does the evidence point? Let’s find out…
Evolution proponents say: ‘The entire universe was once compressed into a sphere smaller than the period at the end of this sentence. It became unstable and exploded into everything at the ‘Big Bang’ for no apparent reason, caused by nothing for no purpose and came on its own accord without any help from a god and suddenly we have the universe and all things therein.’ And why would anyone want that anyway? It has no future and no hope.
Evolution seems to be just another superstitious man-made religion to get rid of guilt. With nothing as its god, nowhere as its destiny and only oblivion as its future evolution is hopeless. I too once thought it was true, but no more. The media and the university cannot tell me what to believe. It just doesn’t add up, regardless of carefully contrived ‘arguments. Proponents always have some clever come-back. It shows where they are coming from.
But their entire house of cards has many flaws. It has no proof, zero hard evidence and nothing but fantasy and empty rhetoric on which to base its faith. It is amazing adults can buy into it. It should have gone out by the road with yesterday’s garbage. How can otherwise ‘educated’ people still insist on embracing such a myth from the 1850’s in our ‘enlightened’ age? It’s embarrassing and it is not scientific.
Adherents claim the ‘o-ness’ is on the Creationists to ‘prove it’. If the burden of proof is on the Creationists to prove God exists, then it follows that the burden of proof lies with the Evolutionists to prove God doesn’t.
Fine, that’s easy. Just look around. Check your pulse. Do you exist? Can you think? Can you learn? Can you speak? If so, you must have a Creator. You had nothing to do with it. You and I cannot build a living thing; not even a blade of grass. Science and Math are in everything. Science is Observation, Experimentation, Replication and Notation. The math is probability. Evolution cannot be Science because there is zero evidence, though proponents claim they have it. Let’s see them reproduce it.
Fruit Flies don’t become horses, even if they had millions of years to do it. Lions don’t become fish. Amebas don’t morph into humans.
There is no such thing as Reincarnation where, when you die, you come back as a Mosquito. And no ‘little Green Men’ from outer space deposited the first life on Earth and then returned without a trace. Evolutionists call this Trans-spermia. Some of them even try to use this explanation. Where’s the evidence for any of this pre-school fantasy? And it’s embarrassing for adults to behave this way.
When people start believing and reacting to their imaginings as though they were reality, psychoanalysts call them ‘neurotic’. Neurosis is stupid behavior by non-stupid people. They have a mental illness. This is even more so when these poor sick folks start accusing their caregivers of having the disease. But that is what evolutionists do.
The essence of what they believe:
You may find evolutionary contrarians who refute me, but here's what evolutionists seem to be saying: ‘Nothing suddenly exploded into everything at the ‘Big Bang’. This limitless explosion took billions of years to explode. Its results are billions of perfectly round suns and worlds revolving in perfect order and harmony throughout the universe. Among these worlds is our Earth, which is exquisitely fine- tuned to support all life, which arose out of nothing, just because it wanted to exist. These are just things that happen by chance from time to time. They are totally devoid of purpose, meaning and cause. If they have any future, it will be the result of blind chance and happenstance.’ If all of that begins to look like foolishness, I would agree.
In the beginning, there was absolute nothing. Then, just because it wanted to, nothing suddenly exploded into everything over millions of years at the ‘Big Bang’. Then there was everything? Do explosions cause order and beauty or chaos and ruin? Have you ever seen an explosion take billions of years? Where’s their logic?
Does any of that make good sense to you?! Do explosions create anything good? Have you ever seen an explosion? Is shrapnel and debris pretty, round, well ordered and designed? Did the ‘Big Bang’ require billions of years to ‘explode’? Do explosions in print shops result in Encyclopedias?
This is what the high priests of Evolution seem to want us to believe that. Does that make good sense to you? Is that what they call ‘science and reason’? If science is about provability, facts and evidence, where is it? And why do they want us to believe science is more interested in theory than facts? What makes them think a hypothesis or theory is more important than an established scientific fact or law?
But so-called ‘science’ ignores its own published methodology when it comes to evolution.
Why? Is Darwin such a ‘god’ no teacher can criticize him and keep their teaching job? Is that academic freedom? Hardly. It’s like a preacher criticizing the church’s doctrine of a conscious eternity in Hell fire. It’s too sacred. It’s tied directly to their income, so back off. If you prove it false, you will be labeled a heretic and be excommunicated. Additionally, if you were to try this, you would be removing their only ‘right’ to feel superior over the sinner. They would be in the same boat as all the rest of us sinners. It is dangerous, explosive ground. I speak from experience, but I digress.
What do you imagine caused the design of a human body? What caused the design of the powerful forces of Physics that work together as a congruous design and function as a unit? I’m talking about the entire Universe working together in harmony… How did it all come into being? How does it all keep working?
This is the Scientific Method:
Observe and offer a question.
Research the matter
Construct a Hypothesis
Test your Hypothesis by repeatable Experiment
Analyze your Data and draw conclusions based on the real proof
Establish it as a fact in a publication reviewed by others in the Scientific Community Communicate your facts to the rest of the world via media
The Laws of Science, Energy, Chemistry, Math, Genetics, indeed all the systems of every life form including the Reproductive, the Circulatory, the Pulmonary, the Skeletal, the Skin, the Nervous System, the Endocrine System, the Organs, the Muscular, the Digestive Systems, etc. indicate design.
Moreover, they all work together harmoniously to create the whole man and had to all be created instantaneously or else we would have died instantly indicate we were created by a Power way beyond the meager accidental and wimpy ‘power’ of evolution. Can we but conclude that evolution is stupid? Life is far too complicated for it to arise on its own, out of nothing but dead matter.
The Christian World View
Let’s see if Christianity’s explanation makes more sense. Does the Bible really say Jesus is the Creator?
John 1:1 – ‘In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.’
Colossians 1:14 – ‘(This is he) In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: 16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: 17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.’
Philippians 2:6 ‘Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.’
Here is what God, the God of the Bible says about skeptics and atheists:
Psalms 14:1 ‘The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God.’ They are corrupt; they have done abominable works. There is none that does good.’
Romans 1:19 ‘Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it unto them. 20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever.’
Isaiah 41:21 ‘Produce your cause, says the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, says the King of Jacob. 22 Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen (in the immediate future?): let them show the former things, what they are, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come (in the distant future?). 23 Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods: yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. 24 Behold, you are of nothing, and your work of naught: an abomination is he that chooses you.’
The God of the Bible claims Jesus IS the Creator of all that we can see and know.
He declares that Jesus shall be preeminent, meaning above all. It says Jesus is permanently alive and infinitely powerful because he can rescue all of mankind and save them from certain extinction. It goes on to say Jesus is the Head of the Body called ‘the church’. And that, at the name of Jesus, EVERY knee shall bow to him and EVERY tongue will confess that he is Ruler of all.
This God MOCKS evolutionists, atheists, anti-theists, skeptics and all those who refuse to believe. He calls them ‘fools’. He says they change truth into lies, so they can free themselves from feeling guilty for indulging in sin. Isn’t that the whole reason Religions were created in the first place? Evolution is just another one.
According to the God of the Bible, non-believers worship themselves or some ‘thing’ instead of God, the One who made all things. He says they can’t do anything good.
They can’t tell us anything about the past including how and why we got here. He adds they can’t see passed their noses to predict future things either. He tops it all with the fact they are nothing at all and their work is a big fat zero… NOTHING! All the books, speeches, tours, debates, TV appearances, etc. amount to nothing at all!
God claims he owns everything in the universe including you and me. How dare he? He thinks he owns the place. He says he built it all and is therefore entitled to do with it whatever he pleases. He has all the rights. We do not.
The late Christopher Hitchens, who was one of the high priests of evolution, said in his book ‘god is not great’, that the God of the Bible doesn’t even exist. He spurned the Holy One of Israel, the One who claims rule over all life, including his. He made his choice. I think he chose poorly. The question is: ‘Who are you going to believe?’
Are you going to believe an angry, hostile, arrogant man who was mad at God for exercising his rights over his own creation or God himself? How can one get mad at a God who he thinks doesn't even exist? We all serve some one or some thing, even if it’s only ourselves. Who are you going to serve with your life? Is this life all there is or do we have a future beyond? Did we come from a rock or from a Powerful God? Are you willing to entertain the proof?
Where does the Evidence lead and what about your world view or lifestyle?
This should be any honest persons’ modus operandi: to follow wherever the evidence leads them and follow an accurate mind set or point of view. Let’s be honest about it and not follow any personal pre-conceived notions as to how the world works or what reality is. Every other way is less than honest. Follow the evidence honestly, not trying to cling to one’s own ways or lifestyle. Simple, not complicated. Just do it. If the evidence, once honestly and thoroughly evaluated, leads to evolution, then so be it. That would mean evolution is god and there is no real purpose for living, but at least you will have given it your best shot.
But in reality, we all believe in a whole lot of things we cannot see, like electricity, radio waves, microwaves, magnetism, gravity, centrifugal force and inertia, just to name a few. The real issue is a matter of what floats your boat: lifestyle. How do you choose to live? Your beliefs must support and uphold how you choose to live.
If, on the other hand, we find that the evidence leads us to the conclusion that, although we cannot see him, there really IS a God and we can submit our lifestyle to him, then so be it. Let’s just be honest and do it. It won’t hurt and it will open up a whole new way of life.
Does organized religion hold any promise?
Is that where we will find the truth, meaning and purpose in life? Do we really have a purpose, a real destiny and a future beyond this present temporal existence or not? Will we find it if we sort through the millions of ideologies or religions of the world? Will the Christian religion (which may or may not be real Christianity) tell us?
After many years of searching them, I draw this conclusion: None of them got it right. Religions are manmade attempts to solve the annoying problem of guilt. Evolution is just one of them, except this one is without a god. They are their own gods. Or nothing is god. The real issue is they don’t want someone telling them what to do or how to live.
But the question still is not solved, even through denial that there is a Creator God. It takes more than the evidence; it takes one’s outlook on life itself plus the evidence. Beliefs matter. I’m saying we wouldn’t even have minds to believe with, if they didn’t originate with a greater Creator who designed, planned, built and instilled them in us from the very beginning. Thought, memory, creativity, attitudes, emotions, understanding, wisdom, prowess, determination and all other mental powers do not arise out of chemistry.
Is there a God who made all the worlds out there and if he does exist, does he care about us? Does the answer reside in Christianity; that is authentic Christianity? I’m not including tradition or ritual. I’m talking about the straight Biblical Christ-seeking and truth-only kind that’s not just for show. They live it on a daily basis. They want to know: does Jesus Christ exist, can I prove it beyond any reasonable doubt and does he care about me and my future? It’s what matters to them and you can tell.
If he is real and he IS God, why would I fight against him?
If the Bible is indeed his word, then this God really IS great and we should take heed if we want to really live. This God says and proves in the Bible’s pages that he loves us and gave his life’s blood that we might have permanent life of the same kind he enjoys, full of joy, creativity and endless delight in the process of building worlds and filling them with life.
This Bible is full benefits for us from this great God. Notice the fruits of his Spirit mentioned in Galatians 5:22: ‘The fruits of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness and self control.’ We want all our neighbors to show them to us.
Who doesn’t want these things?
Reality check: the universe, the solar system, the earth and all life is undeniably beautiful and all of it is sustained in harmony. The things of God are clearly seen by the things that are made so that the skeptics are without excuse, according to Romans 1:19 through 32.
Let’s get to the real science that is true for all people in all places at all times. To me, the idea of the ‘big bang’ as the explosion of a dot no bigger than the period at the end of this sentence is un-provable, unbelievable, given the sheer size of the universe. This earthbound relic of an idea should be rejected out of hand and abandoned. We are just beginning to get a glimpse of a tiny fraction of the universe. There are billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars systems and multiple billions of planets within them!
I think scientists will someday learn that each galaxy, of which there are billions, was individually created by the All-powerful Creator God with a ‘big bang’ or ‘sudden burst’ of his own limitless energy solidifying into matter. That’s why astronomers are finding new galaxies where there was nothing there the week before and they find them at the rate of about one per week.
God is still out there building worlds! He is not yet finished with the greatest project he ever conceived. And he’s not done with you and me and the planet we live on. He will return in person and straighten out the mess we’re about to make of it. (See Part Three.) Being a part of it all is the reason you were born, as you will see later. That’s part of the magic of thinking big about God.
To me, the evidence points toward a Creator, but you must research and then decide for yourself. ‘We all serve someone.’ according to the old Bob Dylan song. The Big Question is WHO: God? Ourselves? The Devil? Or someone else?
The Fruits of Evolution
Because Mind can only come from a Greater Mind and evolution says ‘No, it comes with life by accident.’ If it comes so easily, go ahead: make one! Put in the emotions, the intelligence, the creative prowess, the memory, the ability to learn, calculate, speak or teach, just to name a few of the powers of our minds.
Think about it. Does it make good sense to you that it all came from rocks, chemistry, physics, millions of years of time, the combination of all so-called sciences or from nothing at all? Not to me! I’d much rather believe mankind was built in the image of the Great Mind of God who made and sustains the entire universe, as it is written in Genesis 1:1. Mind can only come from pre-existing mind.
Search your feelings… in your heart you know better.
Q. Believers in Jesus say ‘Evolution is evidence bankrupt!’ Why? A. There simply isn’t any real empirical evidence. Evolutionists have fabricated their own ‘evidence’ to make evolution seem plausible. They manufacture their own weird scientific sounding words in Latin-ese language in order to sound scientific. But is creative word processing proof that there is no God? No, of course not. They have got to do much better than that to convince me.
Some evolutionists are not interested in truth. As I said before, some evolutionists value theories higher and account them more valuable than facts. That is not science. That is make-believe science at best. Kids are smarter than that and they don’t buy this nonsense. Adults, especially scientists, shouldn’t buy it either. True science is honest people in search of provable, repeatable and testable facts. (See Romans 1:19-31.)
Show me the proof, or you are either dishonest or not scientific!
Q. According to Christians, thousands of years ago the God of the Bible predicted the advent of Atheism, Anti-theism and Evolution. This God had men write his words down so we could read them. He gets in the face of Darwinists and even calls them names like ‘fools’ and ‘nothings’. Isn’t this evidence that the God of the Bible is alive and real?
A. Notice 2 PE 3:3- 7 This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance: 2 That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Savior: 3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 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.
5 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: 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Then take note of this powerful indictment directly from God recorded in Isaiah 41 against the skeptics: 21 ‘Produce your cause, says the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, says the King of Jacob. 22 Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they were, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. 23 Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods: yes, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. 24 Behold, you are of nothing, and your work of naught: an abomination is he that chooses you.’
Atheists, Evolutionists and the like have NO FUTURE. This life, this time is all they have and all they apparently want. They never give ‘eternity’ a second thought. They don’t care about it. Thing is, they are wasting the only chance they may have for a future. Their only purpose in life is the same as a dog or any other animal: to eat, drink and reproduce.
Why settle for that drop-in-the-bucket mundane existence when the truth has vast oceans of powerful living to offer?
Let’s get serious. There is a real Day of Judgment coming. Every human who has ever lived will be resurrected to face this day. There they will stand before the One who has all judgment committed to him and that is none other than Jesus Christ. We all will account for every idle word we have ever spoken.
Every knee will bow to him. Every eye will see him. Every tongue will confess the he is LORD OF ALL. Those who refuse to acknowledge him will die the death and stay dead for all time to come. They will not be awake, but asleep in the blackness of death from then on and forever. The very memory of them will fade away and they will remain forgotten for all time. The fame they acquired in this life will be discarded and it will fade into oblivion.
They could have had wonderful life, a future and real power to help people. But no, they’d rather die than acknowledge Jesus as Lord. How sad and how foolish! What a waste! May I suggest we all choose wisely, while there is still time.
So, what is the Fruit of true Christianity vs. the Fruit of Evolution?
Many theologians blame the holocaust on evolution because Hitler and his henchmen were faithful evolutionary practitioners. Human life was regarded as cheap. The weak were expendable and not worthy of life, so they murdered them relentlessly and without pity.
To be fair, the Catholic Church coerced the Roman army to exterminate multiple thousands of Muslims in an effort to wipe them out completely. But could the practice of murdering those of another race or creed be in the ‘Christian’ category? No, of course not. Jesus said we should ‘love our enemies’, not kill them.
Now an atheist may say: ‘Well, your God, the God of the Bible is the greatest killer of all.’ My answer to that is: Don’t forget who owns the planet and everything else. He has the right to do whatever he wants with his own stuff and that includes all human beings, you and me not withstanding. We are bought with a price and we are not our own. Whatever we have, we have been given by him who owns everything.
Let us learn to be thankful, for a change. But let’s compare the overall fruits of the rest of Christendom with the fruits of evolution:
a. How many orphanages built? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
b. How many hungry fed? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
c. How many homeless housed? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
d. How many water wells dug? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
e. How many schools established? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
f. How many sick have been treated? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
g. How many prisoners visited? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
h. How many strangers take in? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
i. How many naked clothed? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
j. How much uplifting Godly music created? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
k. How many poor enriched with food, clothing, shelter or comfort of some kind? Christianity: Thousands or millions
Evolution: Zero
l. How many hopeless encouraged with good news and with a real future we can depend on? Christianity: Thousands
Evolution: Zero
Conclusion: Evolution and friends add up to a big fat ZERO.
All their pomp and arrogance is of no real or lasting value at all. But to be fair, many of them do kind things for people all the time. But they do it because they have a heart in them to do it, even though they may not know why they want to. Chemistry is not the reason. Collocations of molecules are not the reason. It’s because they have instilled in them a little bit of God.
What is Evolution and are there any benefits from it?
Boil away all the fluff and Evolution is: No God, no Guilt! Empirical science is only that which can be tested and repeated by experiment.
Forensic science is life science dating back to the beginning of a life form. Evolution, as the method of creation of life doesn’t qualify as any kind of science. It is philosophy bordering on a religion because it required the belief in that which cannot be seen, felt, touched, tasted or measured by any means. It’s all just theory and conjecture that cannot in any way be verified. Fossils don’t come with dates.
Bottom line: Evolutionists have a good reason for holding to their belief system. It is, like all religions, to absolve themselves from guilt. Get rid of God and you get rid of guilt. I’d rather keep the guilt because I can relieve myself of it by asking God for forgiveness. That protects me and reassures me and I need that. It also guarantees me that I have a future because of him and that it is secure and sure. God cannot lie, therefore, we are safe. I like safe, thank you God!
