  • Apologetic Resources
    APOLOGETIC RESOURCES A Young Earth ministry perspective, namely contrasting Scripture to true science now and during the ages. By Dr. Jim Pagels [email protected] 9/2016 Editor Dr. John Fricke, Emeritus Professor of Biology, Concordia University, Ann Arbor, Michigan. Copyright This book is offered as an educational resource on a no cost basis. Contents are not to be reproduced for the purpose of sale. Note that all Scriptural passages are taken from the English Standard Version. 1 I HAVE NO GREATER JOY THAN TO HEAR THAT MY CHILDREN WALK IN THE TRUTH III JOHN 1:4 Forward - Although there is much young Earth information available from commercial sources and on the internet, it was the impression of this writer that no resource that deals with basic topical issues correlating the young Earth philosophy and science exists for professional church workers. To this end, Apologetic Resources is being offered. Intended Audience – The intended audience of this reference material is primarily use by professional church workers, i.e., teachers, pastors, youth workers, etc., namely those who choose to uphold the literal interpretation of Genesis and the inerrancy of Holy Scripture. The focus in this regard is Young Earth Creationism and the catastrophic nature of the global Genesis Flood keeping in mind that Genesis 1-11 is foundational to most of the significant doctrines of Holy Scripture. Of course, laymen may well also find this reference a valuable resource. There is obviously a realistic interplay between Scripture, apologetics and true science. The goal of this document is to provide clarity to this interaction.

  • John Murphy's Article
    Aqd.Inw uqo Au ~ Jitbliral <!Case for an ~U.l -'lEartb ~nterpretatton of <@enests A Personal Introduction: I am the son of a preacher and have been raised in the church all of my life. My mother and father attended the Free Will Baptist Bible College in Nashville, Tennessee, and my father was an ordained minister in the Free Will Baptist denomination. If you think Southern Baptists are conservative, Free Will Baptists make them look like a bunch of tree-huggin,' hybrid drivin,' whole-foods eatin,' tie-dye wearin' liberals. Needless to say, I was raised in a very, very conservative biblical tradition. My father was a young-earth creationist and I held that position for almost 35 years. When I first became interested in Christian apologetics I read a couple of my father's books by Henry Morris, considered by many to be the father of the modern day young­ earth creationist movement. Initially, I read and studied Christian apologetics because I wanted to affirm my position. I favored books and articles that gave evidence in support of my beliefs and my point of view, and that refuted opposing worldviews. I really wasn't too interested in reading books or articles espousing differing positions. They were wrong and I knew they were wrong so I didn't feel the need to waste my time reading their liberal, ill-informed points of view. Then I was sucker punched. I was preparing a Christian apologetics presentation for Sunday school and was advised that Dr. Hugh Ross, of the Christian apologetics ministry Reasons To Believe, was going to be speaking at the University of Texas.

  • Faith Displayed As Science: the Role of the "Creation Museum"
    FAITH DISPLAYED AS SCIENCE: THE ROLE OF THE “CREATION MUSEUM” IN THE MODERN AMERICAN CREATIONIST MOVEMENT A thesis presented by Julie Anne Duncan to The Department of the History of Science in partial fulfillment of the requirements for an honors degree in History and Science Harvard University Cambridge, Massachusetts March, 2009 ABSTRACT NAME: Julie Anne Duncan TITLE: Faith Displayed as Science: The Role of the “Creation Museum” in the Modern American Creationist Movement ABSTRACT: Since the 1960s, the U.S. has seen a remarkable resurgence of the belief in the literal truth of the Bible, especially in a “young” (less than 10,000 years old) Earth. Somewhat paradoxically, this new biblical literalism has been accompanied by an increased emphasis on scientific legitimacy among creationists. The most recent tool in young-Earth creationists’ quest for scientific legitimacy is the “creation museum.” This thesis analyzes and compares the purposes and methods of four creation museums; discusses their repercussions for science as a discipline; and explains their significance for the larger creationist movement. KEYWORDS: creationism, young Earth, evolution, museums, Creation Evidence Museum, Dinosaur Adventure Land, Institute for Creation Research, Answers in Genesis ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing this thesis would not have been the wonderful and rewarding experience it was without the generous support of the following people. It is difficult to overstate my gratitude to my thesis adviser, Professor Janet Browne. It was she who first suggested, back when I was just a sophomore in her Darwinian Revolution seminar, that my longtime interest in creationism might very well make for an interesting thesis. She helped me apply for the research grant that allowed me to visit four creation museums last summer and then graciously agreed to advise my thesis.

God is the Creator through Jesus Christ 16 For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. (Colossians 1:16-17) We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of all things visible and invisible And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, begotten of the Father, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father by whom all things were made (Nicene Creed, AD 325) 2.

  • Is Genesis History? Analysis Lorence G
    1 Is Genesis History? Analysis Lorence G. Collins January 2018 Email: [email protected] I have listened to and watched the DVD film “Is Genesis History?” and the following is my reaction having heard what was said in this film. I will not discuss what was presented by all experts shown in the film because I do not have the expertise to suggest any reasons why I might disagree with what some of them say. However, all experts speaking in various sections of the film tend to choose only data that fit their model and ignore any data that do not. They may call themselves young-earth creation scientists, but that is not the way science is properly done. For example, Steve Austin, notes that the transitions between different sedimentary formations in the Grand Canyon seem to be sharp and then claims, because many contacts are flat, therefore, these formations cannot represent millions of years of time between their deposition. He points out that there are no abundant erosional channels at their contacts (Austin 1994). But he somehow seems to overlook the facts (1) that the Redwall limestone formation has ancient karst topography with caves and sinkholes, indicating that this formation was once lifted out of the water so that percolating rain water could dissolve out cavities and tunnels in the limestone, and (2) that erosion channels of the Temple Butte Formation, as much as 100 feet deep, cut the top of the Muav limestone and networks of channels of the Surprise Canyon Formation, up to ½ mile wide and 400 feet deep, cut the top of the Redwall limestone, indicating that these rocks were exposed at the earth’s surface to river erosion (Hill et al.
