Creation
The Bible declares that “God created the heaven and the earth.” Those who treasure man’s wisdom above that of God have denied God as creator. Evolutionary thought has been around for a very long time. Aristotle said, “Nothing can be made out of nothing.” This may be true with man but “with God all things are possible.” (Mark 10:27) The question is whether you will accept what the Scriptures say or what man says. Some try and harmonize these but in doing so have to deny that which is plainly stated within God’s Word. For example, some believe that the days of creation can be vast periods of time. The Bible declares that each day of creation had “the evening and the morning.” (Genesis 1:5, 8, 13, 19, 23, 31) It does not say many evenings and mornings. Moses stated that the earth was created in six days and that God rested on the seventh day. (Exodus 20:11) The Hebrew writer’s words should be heeded. “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” (Hebrews 11:3) That God created the universe from nothing is as much a matter of faith as our belief in God. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.” (Hebrews 11:6) Comments are closed.
