Evolution and Presidential candidates, part 6

How many unborn toddlers were murdered today because of the humanistic, paganish decisions of the United States Supreme Court?

“Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins.” James 4: 17 (NIV)

On my Friday, May 19 post (which I believe I actually posted early Saturday morning—I identify my posts by the day I write them not the day posted) I stated the following: For Christians all that should really be necessary to know that GOD created everything is the first sentence, in the first paragraph of the Bible: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1: 1 (NIV) That GOD created man is specifically declared by stating: “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.” Genesis 1: 27 (NIV) Chapters one and two of Genesis deals specifically with creation. The first chapter is an overview of creation. The second chapter is more centered on the specific creation of the first man and woman. That GOD needed billions of years to have man evolve from some slime thing is both ludicrous and contrary to the direct WORD of GOD. Either the Bible is wrong or the Bible is right. It can NOT be both ways!!! The WORD of GOD specifically affirms that GOD CREATED ALL THINGS!!!

In my present study of the Bible, I have been studying declarations of GOD being the CREATOR and repentance. I usually go through the New Testament three times when doing such studies. I am not yet finished with my first time. However, given the topic of my last three posts, it seems appropriate to relate what I have found so far. I do not claim that those stated are all the references possible since this is only my first time through. Also, it must be understood that my study is very specific. Throughout the WORD of GOD the whole thought is that GOD created. Consequently, miracles can and do occur, the human body is more than flesh and bone possessing both a soul and a spirit (which I believe could not be possible if the body had evolved from slime to man), and eternal life is possible, even after the physical body is dead, because GOD created. I have only included those references that specially deal with creation and are from the New Testament.

Then, on that Friday and Saturday, I posted eighteen different references from the New Testament referring to GOD creating the universe, world, man, all things. I spent some of the weekend reading the rest of the New Testament to complete my references. This was a quick read rather than a study and as I’ve said may not contain all references. Nevertheless, I have a total of fifty-five different references in regard to creation—more than I thought would be given. My Topical Bible lists far fewer which is one reason why I do my own study. I was planning to finish listing the references tonight. I don’t think that will happen. I am going to list all fifty–five (thirty-seven remaining) though over the next posts.

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” Ephesians 1: 3-4 (NIV)

“I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace given through the working of his power. Although I am less than the least of all God’s people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things.” Ephesians 3: 7-9 (NIV)

“He (JESUS, the SON of GOD—my addition) is the image of the invisible God, the first born over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. For God was pleased to have fullness dwell in him, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.” Colossians 1: 15-20 (NIV)

“Since then, you have been raised with Christ, set you hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Because of these, the wrath of God is coming. You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. But now you must rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.” Colossians 3: 1-10 (NIV)

“So do not be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me (the apostle Paul—my addition) his prisoner. But join with me in suffering for the gospel, by the power of God, who has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.” II Timothy 1: 8-10 (NIV)

Implicit in this reference is the truth that GOD (CHRIST JESUS and the HOLY SPIRIT) existed before the beginning of time and before HE (THEY) created the universe.

“Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of God’s elect and the knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness—a faith and knowledge resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time, and at his appointed season he brought his word to light through the preaching entrusted to me by the command of God our savior….” Titus 1: 1-3 (IV)

Implicit in this reference is the truth that GOD (CHRIST JESUS and the HOLY SPIRIT) existed before the beginning of time and before HE (THEY) created the universe.

“In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” Hebrews 1: 1-3 (NIV)

“He (GOD—my addition) also says, ‘In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end (Psalm 102: 25-27—my addition).’” Hebrews 1: 10-12 (NIV)

“In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, from whom and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering.” Hebrews 2: 10 (NIV)

“Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.” Hebrews 3: 3-4 (NIV)

Not according to the ludicrous nonsense spouted by those who believe the lie of slime to man. To them, it just happened to happen. What misguided faith they must have if they actual believe that illogical, unscientific garbage!

“Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it. For we also have had the gospel preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith. Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, ‘So I declared on oath in my anger, “They shall never enter my rest.’’ And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world. For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: ‘And on the seventh day God rested from all his work (Genesis 2: 2—my addition).’” Hebrews 4: 1-4 (NIV)

“For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.” Hebrews 4: 12-13 (NIV)

When you give an account to GOD of everything that you did, said, and thought; do you really think you will be able to justify accepting the lie of slime to man instead of knowing the truth that GOD CREATED ALL THINGS!!!

“When Christ came as high priest of the good things that are already here, he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not man-made, that is to say, not part of this creation. He did not enter by means of blood of goats and calves; but he entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption.” Hebrews 9: 11-12 (NIV)

“It was necessary, then, for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence. Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own. Then Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But now he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself. Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.” Hebrews 9: 23-28 (NIV)

Are you waiting for JESUS’S second coming or dreading appearing before the judgment seat of GOD? Or, are you so misguided as to believe the slime to man lie of humanistic apologists, who claim once dead always dead—the only existence is the body, who are trying to condemn you with them to eternal fire?

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for.

By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.” Hebrews 11: 1-3 (NIV)

BY FAITH WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE UNIVERSE WAS FORMED AT GOD’S COMMAND, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.” Hebrews 11: 3 (NIV)

Both GOD CREATED and Darwin’s slime to man requires a kind of faith. Neither will be scientifically proven. I believe believing slime to man takes much greater faith than believing GOD CREATED because slime to man is simply made-up garbage that can not possibly by true. As was once said, eliminate all that is impossible and the truth is then that which remains no matter how improbable. (A poor translation of a Sherlock Holmes’ quote, I think. I didn’t actually check and it has been a long while since I have read any of Sherlock Holmes.) However, the fact is that the only logical conclusion is that GOD created. How else could all things have come into existence? How could that which had no life, become alive? How else could all the different elements have been created if not by a CREATOR? Evolution—from slime to man—is scientifically impossible. Creation without a CREATOR is scientifically impossible. The complexity of the universe is scientifically impossible without a DESIGNER and CREATOR. It has to be AND GOD CREATED!!! We can see it in all creation.

“See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven? At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, ‘Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.’ The words ‘once more’ indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.” Hebrews 12: 25-27 (NIV)

Does any Presidential candidate who believes and declares that man came from slime deserve the vote of any Christian who knows the truth?
