The myth of evolution has been one of the two the most effective tools that Satan has used to turn people from faith to disbelief. Actually, the myth of evolution is a collection of cleverly devised fables or myths. These myths, when coupled with the myths about a very old earth and universe, become even more effective. The only reason that this page is here is because so many are losing their faith because of these myths. It must be noted that those who have a real experience with the power of the Holy Spirit to solve problems, reveal truth, bring peace, heal the sick, do miracles, and do righteousness through His people--those people are not swayed by these myths that conflict with the Bible. They may be temporarily confused by the lies (lies put forward as "science"), but if they are in contact with the Real Jesus Christ, there is nothing that can shake them off of that foundation. For those who have a rationalized faith or who are double-minded, the myths of Evolution become an assertion that claims that the truth that is in the Bible is a myth. In fact, evolution is merely a made-up myth that is based on many more made-up myths, arbitrary assumptions, irrational statements, and outright lies. Here are the two most important facts:
Given these facts, it's a wonder that anyone would lose his or her faith over these myths. Yet, most Christians appear to be unaware of the two facts above. While Evolutionism is based on human story-telling and poor logic, Christianity is based on Jesus Christ, the Living Christ, Who reveals Himself to the Christian on an ongoing basis. Believer's have the supernatural trust that is a gift from God. By this trust, we see Jesus and hear His Voice. It is Jesus Himself who reveals to us that the Bible is His Word, His Utterance. And it is Jesus Himself Who speaks to us through His Word. Jesus speaks to us through many different means: Scripture, intuition, bringing Scripture to our remembrance, apostles, prophets, etc. When God speaks to us, faith comes and with faith comes a vision of hope. This vision shows us who we are in Christ in an ever-more-clear understanding. When God speaks, He instructs us what to think, what to say, and what to do. Then, He does the work through us by His grace, His free gift of righteousness. This righteousness of God in us is the moving of the Holy Spirit that transfigures us from glory to glory to be like Jesus, killing our fleshly nature and causing Christ to be more fully formed in us. And this death to self, to the old adamic sin nature, and building up of Christ is the very thing that redeems us, sets us free from slavery to the fleshly nature, to Satan, to the pressures of the world, and to death. So what does God tell us through Scripture?Exodus 20:11 "For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day." Genesis 1:1-31 In the beginning God created the heaven and the Earth. and the Earth [was] without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters. God said, "Let there be light." and there was light, and God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness, and God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night, [and that was the] evening and the morning [of the] first day, God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters." and God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse correctly, and God called the expanse, Heaven, [and that was the] evening and the morning [of the] second day. God said, "Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear." and God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas: and God saw that it was good, and God said, Let the Earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the Earth: and it was so, and the Earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after its kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good, [and that was the] evening and the morning [of the] third day. God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heaven to give light upon the Earth." and God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: He made the stars also, and God set them in the expanse of the heaven to give light upon the Earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good, [and that was the] evening and the morning [of the] fourth day. God said, "Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the Earth in the open expanse of heaven, and God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after its kind." and God saw that it was good, and God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the Earth, [and that was the] evening and the morning [of the] fifth day. God said, "Let the Earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the Earth after its kind." and God made the beast of the Earth after its kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps upon the Earth after its kind: and God saw that it was good. God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the Earth." so God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them, and God blessed them, and God said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the Earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the Earth. God said, "See, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the Earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat, and to every beast of the Earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to everything that creeps upon the Earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for meat." God saw everything that He had made, and, it was very good, [and that was the] the evening and the morning [of the] sixth day. Matthew 1:1-17 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Abraham fathered Isaac; and Isaac fathered Jacob; and Jacob fathered Judas and his brothers; And Judas fathered Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares fathered Esrom; and Esrom fathered Aram; And Aram fathered Aminadab; and Aminadab fathered Naasson; and Naasson fathered Salmon; And Salmon fathered Booz of Rachab; and Booz fathered Obed of Ruth; and Obed fathered Jesse; And Jesse fathered David the king; and David the king fathered Solomon of her who had been the wife of Urias; And Solomon fathered Roboam; and Roboam fathered Abia; and Abia fathered Asa; And Asa fathered Josaphat; and Josaphat fathered Joram; and Joram fathered Ozias; And Ozias fathered Joatham; and Joatham fathered Achaz; and Achaz fathered Ezekias; And Ezekias fathered Manasses; and Manasses fathered Amon; and Amon fathered Josias; And Josias fathered Jechonias and his brothers, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias fathered Salathiel; and Salathiel fathered Zorobabel; And Zorobabel fathered Abiud; and Abiud fathered Eliakim; and Eliakim fathered Azor; And Azor fathered Sadoc; and Sadoc fathered Achim; and Achim fathered Eliud; And Eliud fathered Eleazar; and Eleazar fathered Matthan; and Matthan fathered Jacob; And Jacob fathered Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon to Christ are fourteen generations. (Note: when calculated, this genealogy comes out to about 6,000 years.) Mark 10:6-8 But at the beginning of creation God "made them male and female. ... For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." So they are no longer two, but one. (Note: Genesis is written as real history and Jesus spoke of it as real history.) Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned (Note: there was no death before one man, Adam, sinned.) Now, imagine a teenager being told that molecules-to-man-evolution is scientific fact and that it cannot be questioned. Then the teachers point out that evolution (and an old Earth, which is also claimed to be fact) are in conflict with the Scriptures so the Bible is just a book put together by men with no relevance. If the kids don't know the two facts at the start of this page, they will fall for this lie. And not only kids fall for it. Christian leaders also fall. Most of the older Christian leaders who fell had ways of rationalizing the old Earth myths as being compatible with Scripture. There are several ways to rationalize this, but all of them cause more questions than godly edifying, and none of them are necessary since scientists, after spending untold amounts of time and money, have not been able to scientifically prove that evolution could be possible. Not only that, but, even if they could show evolution to be possible, science cannot prove that evolution took place. Only revelation or circular reasoning can be used to tell how life originated and became what we see today. The fact is that this page would not be here if ungodly people were not using myths about evolution and myths about the age of the Earth to successfully convert over 80% of Christian young people into non-Christians during their years in college. And this page would not be here if research surveys did not show that most of those young people lost their faith years before they entered college because no one ever told them about the following two facts:
This is not a dogmatic claim that the Earth is 6,000 years old. Even though a plain reading of Scripture seems to indicate a young Earth, we can't even deny the possibility that God could have done something that Scripture doesn't hint at and that has left no scientific evidence. It is possible. It just is not worth the time to think about it. As you look over the Scriptures above, what does God say to you? If you believe in evolution, can you reconcile that belief with the Scriptures above without intense speculation, adding to Scripture or taking away from Scripture? What evidence have you personally seen that absolutely proves evolution to you?

How can we know anything about anything? That’s the real question |
