The New Testament and Genesis

Shop Now

For those who want to believe Genesis is “mytho-history,” or symbolic, or an allegory—well, they also must explain away what the New Testament says!

You see, the Apostle Paul wrote that the first man, Adam, literally brought sin and death into creation, that Eve was deceived by the serpent, and that people have seen evidence for God since the beginning of the world—not billions of years later when humans finally evolved from what God had begun!

Likewise, the Apostle Peter refers to creation and the flood as history. And Jesus compared his second coming to the time of the flood.

Also, Jesus mentions Abel in Genesis as a real person. It’s history!
