This is Ken Ham, encouraging you to stand on God’s Word from the very first verse.

Transcript

Have you ever wondered where the idea of millions of years came from? You see, for most of Western history people believed in a young earth because they respected the Bible as the history book of the universe. But about two hundred years ago there was a shift. People stopped viewing the rock layers through the lens of a global flood, and they started arguing that the present is the key to the past.

In other words, take the processes happening today and stretch them backwards. When geologists did this, they came to believe earth was very old.

But as we’ll see this week, it’s the Bible that gives us the true history of the world.
