Transcript

Many Christians have accepted millions of years and try and squeeze them into Genesis. But what they’re doing is mixing a pagan religion with God’s Word!

You see, the millions of years don’t come from the rock layers. They originally came from men who rejected the truth of God’s Word. Without the flood of Noah’s day they needed a different way to explain earth’s history. Millions of years of slow processes was the result.

Today millions of years and evolution are used as an excuse for not needing a Creator. They’re nothing more than elements of a pagan religion!

Christians can’t mix God’s Word with man’s sinful ideas.
