The brutal attacks on anyone daring to
challenge the theory of evolution is showing no sign of abating, but Christians
are refusing to be cowed. See, for
example, http://creation.com/expelled-new-movie-exposes-persecution-of-anti-darwinists
.
One of the ongoing cases being challenged in the courts in the US, is
the firing of Mark Armitage by the California State University. Two years ago. Armitage had discovered soft
tissue on a Triceratops fossil. This
made absolute nonsense of both the evolution theory in general, and in
particular the assumptions commonly used for radiometric dating which both
require that the fossil in question should be tens of millions of years
old. No sane person will believe that
soft tissue can be preserved for that long under whatever circumstance! Armitage had thought he could avoid trouble
by simply presenting his irrefutable data without drawing any conclusions. He was wrong.
He later laments: “It is frustrating because I made no conclusions in
the paper, I just presented the factual data. The only conclusions I drew were
that ‘This needs to be investigated further’.” (see
Clearly,
that conclusion is bad enough.
And with the Pope himself now coming out
full-steam in support of evolution, (see Pope Francis Aligns
Creation, Evolution As 'Not Contrary') it is no surprise that the
evolution establishment is confidently stomping all around as ruthlessly as
ever.
The good news of course is that the Holy
Spirit is also actively at work, through several of His agents, to keep alive
the truth of Biblical creation even in this end-time generation. One of the leading lights in this regard is
the Institute for Creation Research
(ICR), Dallas in the United States.
One of the latest products from the ICR
is the groundbreaking 12-part DVD series titled Unlocking the Mysteries of
Genesis. Released in May 2014, the DVD
offers scientific evidence that confirms the Book of Genesis as a factual
chronological record of God’s creation.
According to
the ICR, Unlocking the Mysteries of Creation is directed at the Millenial
Generation and it “supports a
biblical worldview with empirical scientific evidence and offers defensible
answers to some of the most provocative and controversial questions of faith
and science. Through interviews with leading experts, on-location
investigations, insights from cutting-edge research, dynamic animation, and
stunning visuals, Unlocking the Mysteries of Genesis takes viewers on a
memorable journey through some of the most fascinating topics in creation
science. Each episode is designed around a 22-minute topic ranging from the
origins of life to evolution to the age of the universe and Noah's Flood. It is
accompanied by a viewer guide to aid discussion and extend learning with other
suggested resources. This is a fantastic resource to use in small groups,
Bible study's or as a church-wide series. “
Church Arise! is excited that this material is out
finally. We heartily endorse it and urge
every Christian family, Group, and Church to buy a copy to watch and
share! It is available at http://store.icr.org/Unlocking-the-Mysteries-of-Genesis/productinfo/DUTMG/
