Transcript

Many Christians today try and add millions of years and evolution into the Bible. But doing that puts death before sin. And that’s a great problem!

You see, God’s Word tells us that God’s original creation was “very good.” There was no death or suffering in that original creation. But then Adam and Eve sinned, and the punishment for sin is death. God cursed the ground because of them and now our world is broken and groaning from the effects of the fall.

But if God used evolution to create, then there were millions of years of death before sin. And that contradicts what the Bible clearly teaches! God did not use evolution!
