Box 595, Eagle, PA 19480 (610) 458-0288 Genesis Creation Seminar Acknowledgements: Thanks to my wife Laurie and seven children (Meghan, Haleigh, Natalie, Jared, Samuel, Ella and Bridget) for allowing me to steal from our time together to prepare this document. A special thanks to Dr. Kent Hovind, a.k.a. Dr. Dino (www.drdino.com). Your ministry to present evidence for creation and support for the Genesis record lives on in this commentary. The ability to copy your work for free distribution has made this document possible. All but one picture has come from Dr. Hovind’s Seminar PowerPoint slides. Thanks to Michele Scott, my secretary for deciphering my Genesis notes in my old Bible to make this commentary come together. Thanks Lord, for making your handiwork so obvious in your creation so as to leave all who will consider it without any excuse regarding your existence. Rom 1:18-25 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man -- and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. © Copyright: This information may be copied for FREE distribution only.

Where will I go after this? Why am I here? The answers to these questions are in startling contrast depending on your world view of this nature and its origin. A creationist world view is you are here by the creative plan of God who loves you as His own and has a purpose for your live. The answers to the big questions are: you are here to enter a relationship with the God who created you, bring glory to Him on this earth and then to retire from this earth into His presence in the life that is to come. An evolutionist world view is you have evolved from a series of random, freak occurrences to arrive at your current place in life. The answers to the big questions are: you are not sure why you are here; there is no plan for your life. All that you see, sense and enjoy of this Earth came from a massive explosion 20 billion of years ago. When you cease to live you will cease to exist. There are no absolutes, no rules but what your society has foisted upon you, no God, no future, no judgments and lastly no purpose to you life, other than to spawn the next generation. So which is the correct answer? What does “scientific” examination of the earth reveal? True science is the process of making observations, drawing conclusions, formulating a hypothesis and then testing that hypothesis to see if it is valid. If your hypothesis passes your testing it can become a theory. Theories that have are testable, repeatable and consistent in the results become eventually accepted as fact, but again only if they are truly verified by extensive repeatable testing. So which world view is truly more scientific the creationist or the evolutionist? It is my hope as you consider the Genesis record/account written by Moses under God’s instruction that the answer will be come very clear to you. © 2005Calvary Chapel Chester Springs 3 www.cc-chestersprings.com Genesis Creation Seminar So how old is the Earth?

Cosmic evolution – the origin of time, space, and matter. Big Bang. 2. Chemical evolution – the origin of higher elements from hydrogen. 3. Stellar and planetary evolution – Origin of stars and planets. © 2005Calvary Chapel Chester Springs 4 www.cc-chestersprings.com Genesis Creation Seminar 4. Organic evolution – Origin of life from inanimate matter. 5. Macro-evolution – Changing from one kind into another. (Yet no transitional forms exist…there should be millions of them) 6. Micro-evolution – Variations within kinds. Only this one has been observed. This deception is a classic bait and switch. One definition of evolution (decent with modification) is given, and the others are assumed to be true by association. The first five meanings are believed by faith and are religious. Only the last one is scientific. (Hovind) Photo courtesy www.drdino.com 20 Billion Years ago (YA) Big bang,4.6 Billion YA earth forms, 3 Billion YA Life “Evolves”, 65 Million YA dinosaurs go extinct.

There are only a few books from the old-universe view as noted at the end. A few other resources have been added from Robby Dean after a 4/12/19 meeting as noted with an asterisk. CREATION vs. EVOLUTION Scientific Creationism, edited by Henry M. Morris, Institute for Creation Research, Master Books, 1974. Over 22 scientists with PhDs contribute a variety of scientific evidence supporting the creation view. Icons of Evolution: Science or Myth?, Jonathan Wells, Regnery Publishing, 2000. The main evidence supporting the theory of evolution, “icons,” are explained and effectively refuted. The Lie: Evolution, Ken Ham, Master Books, 1987. The theory of evolution is refuted more philosophically than evidentially for a general audience. Biblical Creationism: What Each Book of the Bible Teaches about Creation and the Flood, Henry Morris, Baker Book House, 1993. The entire Bible is surveyed for passages referring to creation or God as Creator. Man’s Origin, Man’s Destiny: A Critical Survey of the Principles of Evolution and Christianity, A. E.

  • 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.

  • Mapping the Creation-Evolution Debate in Public Life
    MAPPING THE CREATION-EVOLUTION DEBATE IN PUBLIC LIFE by ANDREW JUDSON HART (Under the Direction of Edward Panetta) ABSTRACT Evolution versus creation is a divisive issue as religion is pitted against science in public discourse. Despite mounting scientific evidence in favor of evolution and legal decisions against the teaching of creationism in public schools, the number of advocates who still argue for creationist teaching in the science curriculum of public schools remains quite large. Public debates have played a key role in the creationist movement, and this study examines public debates between creationists and evolutionists over thirty years to track trends and analyze differences in arguments and political style in an attempt to better understand why creationism remains salient with many in the American public.

  • Creation Evidences Museum in Glen Rose, and Director of International Expeditions Looking for Living Dinosaurs
    DR. BAUGH, CREATION IN SYMPHONY Tape 1, Sessions 1 & 2 Creation in Symphony: THE EVIDENCE Session 1 Evolution Won’t Work (voice - intro) 150 years ago the theory of evolution found reception in the mind of western man. It was not a new idea. It had been introduced in religious political documents in ancient Babylon, and later in secular contemplations of developing Greece. Erasmus Darwin came up with the idea of natural selection as a mechanism for evolution. His grandson, Charles, introduced the concept to the secular academic community, which was eager to embrace a non-theistic doctrine. This doctrine removed the need for a Creator in the natural world, and the need for accountability in the spiritual world. The text of this video series shows that evolution does not work in theory, or in laboratory research. The evidence is heavily in favor of special creation. In this series of lectures a complete Creation model has been developed, with extensive technical references. Prepare to have your mind dramatically expanded, and your faith academically justified, as our speaker, Dr. Carl Baugh, takes you on a fascinating journey from the microscopic to the galactic. Discover creation in symphony. (Baugh) Hello, I’m Carl Baugh, director of Creation Evidences Museum in Glen Rose, and director of international expeditions looking for living dinosaurs. Welcome to the discussion today. We’re going to discuss very intimate questions, which have to do with your past, your present and your future, and that of all of mankind. We’re going to talk about dinosaurs. Tyrannosaurus Rex. Pachycephalosaurus.

Many creationists have advanced the idea that what one believes about creation and evolution affects his or her worldview. Empirical studies in this area are, however, lacking. By advancing a hypothesis that does not have empirical support, creationists are seen by some in the "mainstream" scientific community as extreme and unscientific [1 OJ.

  • Creation Evidence Museum
    Creation Evidence Museum Lacks Evidence! By Greg Neyman © Answers In Creation www.answersincreation.org/cem.htm The Creation Evidence Museum in Glen Rose, Texas, claims to have evidences of a young earth on display. Careful examination of the main articles they claim show a young earth reveal that they are deceptions, and in many cases, not even clever ones. (To view their page of Museum Displays, visit CEM Online (creationevidence.org), and click on Museum Displays on the left column.) The rebuttals for this museum are a compilation of articles from various websites. It is important to note that Carl Baugh, the person behind the museum, is at odds with other creation scientists. To view Answers In Genesis' original article on Carl Baugh, visit http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/paluxy/whatbau.html . The London Artifact An iron and wooden hammer supposedly encased in limestone. CEM claims that this hammer could not be millions of years old (dated to the same age as the limestone) so the hammer/rock must be only thousands of years old. Glen Kuban, who has studied the claims of young earth artifacts from Texas for the last fifteen years, provides the real story behind this hammer (http://paleo.cc/paluxy/hammer.htm ). The Burdick Print This footprint from what they claim is Cretaceous limestone, is said to show that man and dinosaurs walked together only a few thousand years ago. Glen Kuban provides a thorough rebuttal to this claim ( http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/paluxy/wilker5.html ). He shows the track contains anatomic errors, and demonstrates that abruptly truncated subsurface algal structures indicate this print was carved into the rock.
