The strategy of using design arguments which are divorced from Scripture was tried once before, in the early 19th century, and it failed to convert people or to overcome the growing skepticism in the once-Christian cultures of Britain and America. In our evangelism we need to present design arguments and the Scriptures at the same time.
Science is both a fabulous body of knowledge and a fantastic method of investigation. However, scientific discoveries are subject to interpretation. Evolutionary interpretation of numerous datasets point to an earth that is millions or even billions of years old. Is this true? Has the universe truly existed for millions or even billions of years? Or is the earth young as the Bible claims?
It is difficult to understand how anyone can believe that the nervous system, particularly the brain, could have been produced by evolutionary randomness and selection. Its complexity, which far surpasses anything produced by man, is nothing short of a miracle.
Another marvelous reflection of creation is the astonishing process of embryonic development, including the way a human being develops in his or her mother’s womb. Evolutionists say that the so-called “gill slits, yolk sac, and tail” are useless evolutionary leftovers (vestiges) that virtually “prove” we evolved from fish, reptiles, and apes. How does a creationist respond? Does this represent the stages of evolution, or is there another explanation?
Gecko feet, bat wings, and horse leg bones are among many structures that defy evolution. Design implies a Designer, and life certainly looks designed!
Although some plant species rely on wind or water to transfer pollen from one flower to the next, the vast majority of all plant species need the help of animals for pollination.
Language is more than just symbols and sounds. It is a gift from God that lies beneath the reality of creation.
Christians who believe in the literal historical existence and fall of Adam should also believe that God created everything in six literal days about 6,000 years ago.
Ten strong evidences for the earth’s relative youth that confirm the Bible from geology, biology, paleontology, oceanography, and even astronomy
Curious about creation but don’t know where to start? Let’s begin with the basics.
If the world’s oceans have been around for three billion years, they should be filled with vastly more salt than the oceans contain today.
The earth is surrounded by a magnetic field that protects living things from solar radiation. Without it, life could not exist.
How presuppositions for and against God's Word directs the creation and evolution debate through facts, evidence, interpretation, and worldview.
The Scopes trial showed it was foolish to teach only creation; is it any wiser to teach only evolution?
Studies have shown that essentially all 180 organs once listed as evolutionary vestiges have significant functions in human beings.
Is it really possible to talk honestly and fairly about scientific evidence of creation?
The apparent redundancy of the genetic code has long been called codon “degeneracy”—evidence that the present genetic code is an evolutionary product.
Surprising evolutionists but not biblical creationists, scientists have discovered an additional layer of information in DNA.
Did you ever wonder how instincts are passed down from mothers to their offspring?
We want to see the wonder of God’s creation through your camera’s lens.
Though the Bible is our foundation for understanding earth history, scientific “evidences” have a place.
Speech is a non-material phenomenon; that is why all evolutionary hypotheses for its origin fail.
A simple experiment will help you to see the secret behind the eggshell’s amazing strength.
A recent study shows that bees can do the same work as computers in determining the shortest path when making multiple stops.
It is often challenging to determine the source of specific similarities and differences between animals, but one thing is clear: there is awe-inspiring beauty and variety apparent in living things.
Mosaics are better understood as wonders in God’s tapestry of creation.
PDF DownloadThe great variety in color, shape, pattern, and scent we observe in flowers is a direct result of the intimate association of the flowers with their animal partner pollinators or cohorts.
Our Creator placed enough discontinuity in just the right places, showing us that no natural process could have generated such a diverse creation.
