Truth of Genesis
Truth of Genesis proclaims the truth and authority of the Bible from the very first verse. A desire to learn more was birthed in him.
Our goal is to see the Lord Jesus honored as Creator, Savior and Redeemer . We focus on Genesis 1-11 and Creation science to show the inerrancy of God's word. Almost ten years ago Dave was sitting in a service at his local church when a visiting speaker opened up a crisis moment of faith; a conflict between the Bible’s apparent teaching of a young earth and secular sciences’ concept of millions of

The full quote is even better…
“When Moses writes that God created heaven and earth and whatever is in them in six days, then let this period continue to have been six days, and do not venture to devise any comment according to which six days were one day. But if you cannot understand how this could have been done in six days, then grant the Holy Spirit the honor of being more learned than you are. For you are to deal with Scripture in such a way that you bear in mind that God Himself says what is written. But since God is speaking, it is not fitting for you wantonly to turn His Word in the direction you wish to go.”
—What Luther Says. A Practical In-Home Anthology for the Active Christian, compiled by Ewald M. Plass, Concordia, 1959, p. 93.

CMI recently recycled an old article of mine to the front page of Creation.com. A skeptic posted a new comment. Here it is, with my answer. Comments like this are hard for many Christians to answer, so I wanted to share my response more broadly. How'd I do?
https://creation.com/genetic-entropy-and-human-lifespans
Skeptic: "I have read the answers to your 15 questions and your objections and I found the atheists answers to be more rational and logical than your objections. Our knowledge of the universe and life in general is still incomplete so it is hasty to declare evolution is false and become a creationist when we don't have full knowledge of everything. The fossil record is the best proof for evolution when you look at it you can see a clear evolutionary history from ape to man even a child could see that. Just because scientists don't know how life came to be doesn't mean god did it so using the god of the gaps argument wont take you nowhere. Science changes with every discovery made as the history of science has shown. I don't understand why people reject evolution when its staring you in the eye if god created man then why did he created man using body parts from other animals we are not special and unique we have evolved past animal stage into a higher stage"
Dr. Carter's answer: "And yet, when we argue what we DO know, it is clear that an unguided origin of life runs counter to entire fields of knowledge, including chemistry, probability, physics, and even information theory. The creationists are not the ones using a god-of-the-gaps argument when it comes to OoL. And the big bang requires that something on the order of the diameter of an atom to become 10 light years in diameter in one quintillionth of a femtosecond during the inflationary period of the general big bang expansion. There is nothing in physics to suggest something like this could happen, nor when it would happen, nor how fast it would expand, and what was the physical reason for it to suddenly stop? In the end, the big bang is nothing short of magic. It is not based on physics but is a desperate attempt to explain a subset of the observational data using a mathematical trick. Thus, there is every reason to seek an intellectually fulfilling alternative to the secular mantra of naturalism. Yet, you appeal to the fossil record of ape to man. I submit to you that this field is in disarray. Back in the 70s, when I was first learning about it, everything was so neat and tidy. This is no longer true. Even the out-of-Africa expansion has been set on its back foot with the discovery of multiple modern human skeletons, tools, footprints, etc. at the 'wrong' time. And then there are Neanderthals and Denisovans, who were not even part of the supposed rise of Homo sapiens in Africa, yet they were still able to mate with us, to the point where the genomes of certain people in Island SE Asia are up to 10% "non-modern". As to why God may have used similar body plans among the various things He created, this is unanswerable because we cannot be in the mind of any creator, artist, or engineer (and He was all three) as they work. However, if there was no similarity among living things, I know what people in your shoes would be saying, "Where is the evidence of your 'god' now? Everything looks chaotic and random. Nothing looks like it came from the mind of a 'creator'." Your question, then, is a poor one. It is designed to invoke emotion (e.g., fear and doubt) but it has no actual substance.
FYI, God is a proper name. If you wish to have a civil conversation, you would do well to not deliberately insult the person to whom you are communicating by refusing to capitalize the name of someone they hold dear. You are not a neutral party seeking an honest answer to an honest question, as evidenced by your spelling."
Genetic entropy and human lifespans - creation.com The increase in average human lifespan is not due to anything other than nutrition, hygiene, and medicine, and skeptics need more than a high-school-level biology understanding to refute biblical creation.
Common sense logic.

Many impactful events have occurred on earth, Terri Kammerzell's blog highlights a few including "The Flood", which stands as a warning and a reminder that God is a God of mercy and Justice. Jesus stands at the door. Your door. My door. Everyone's door to invite us in before the flood comes. Ignoring the invitation will be cataclysmic.

Sometimes it's hard for me to understand how people can believe in evolution. This blog gives just a few reasons why evolution is not a fact or really even a "theory" as it is most often referred to in literature. Your worldview really makes all the difference in terms of what you will or won't believe.

What is Darwinian Evolution? Why “Darwinian Evolution”? As I mentioned above, “evolve” in itself is not a dirty word. It simply means change. Things change. Change is one of the few absolute guarantees in this world (except when you’re staring at a vending machine). In fact, I don’t
