HAS THE GOSPEL MESSAGE LOST SOME OF ITS GLORY SINCE FIRST DELIVERED?

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.. And all was very good" [Gen 1:1, 27 and 31]. ("And won't He give the Spirit to them that ask Him?" Luke 11:13) ...God's rescue from the outcome of "missing the mark" sin "was finished from the foundation/creation of the world" [Heb 4:3]. "My word that goes out from my mouth will accomplish all I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it" [Is 55:11]. Perfect, makes no mistakes. Can lose nothing. Ultimately all will repent.. there may even "be weeping and gnashing of teeth" in "outer darkness" but - "In Christ all will be made alive! Each in his own order - those who are Christ’s at His coming, then the end when Christ hands the kingdom over to God the Father.. that He may be all in all" [1 Cor 15:22-28].

WHAT IS THE ANOMALY? LIFE? OR DEATH? Apologetics

"Science" which is observation, does not prove evolution, nor even support it.

Evolution is a belief like any other. Not aLL scientists believe in the theory.

Atheistic evolutionists most often believe that people of faith do not believe in natural selection - do not believe there has been, and is, change. This is a very untrue perception on their part!

And, they believe natural selection is the same as evolution as to origins of life. Natural selection can be called "mini-evolution" and "origins" as "Maxi-evolution".. worlds away from each other!

By observation it's easy to see that "every thing with its own seed and after its own kind" I.e. within the dog/wolf kind, can be mixing of traits - traits which are present in the genetic code (instructions).
     (Where does information come from?) But there are NO dog-cats.

Darwin, or those after him, thought much of the "peppered moth" - on one island they were white, on another they were brown. Voila! PROOF of evolution as origins, yes?! Because they evolved away from each other/apart.
  -- No!! On one island, researchers found there was white lichen on the trees.. the brown moths were picked off and the white ones thrived. Vice versa on the other island, no white lichen on the brown trees.
  -- this is natural selection (selection a` la natural)...

We may have heard that bacteria evolves resistance to antibiotics?? The antibiotic kills off the non resistant and the resistant multiply. Again trait was present. Not a new trait developed/evolved...

Trees during drought.. with the ability in their dna code to grow deeper roots will survive and multiply, if the ability to not grow deeper roots is not in the code, they will not survive. This is natural selection. (I don't know how they miss that word se-lec-tion.. ..of traits present.)

So.. they say cow evolved from the whale - I kid you not. The bird evolved from the flying squirrel.. no matter that a birds bones are hollow, feather light, perfect for flight.. and a squirrel does not fly, he leaps.

Have we heard of Lucy? She was later found to be an orangutan.. Peking man, found with tools, later found to be monkeys the tools were used on (grisly story that)..
 -- Piltdown man? pieces of a human skull and an ape like jaw, an out and out fraud.. A few years back time  magazine, blazing headline.. missing link found (again) - no headline when later discovered pieces were ten miles apart and in different layers in time (in the geologic layers).

Speaking of the layers.. Precambrian layer, nothing. Cambrian, bursts with variety of life forms.

Richard Leakey, a leading atheist paleo-anthropolist said "..if further pressed I would have to state that there is more evidence to suggest an abrupt arrival of man rather than a gradual process of evolving". - PBS documentary 1990

..That there aRe fossils... all around the world they find billions of dead things buried in mud and sand and carried by water.. looks like a tide in places.. The state of preservation shows very rapid burial.. tracks, ripple marks, even rain drop marks turn up, and can only be preserved by very rapid covering. (A flood handed down legend is present in all lands.. as so was a 'mother goddess' a first 'god' in all lands... fuzzy memories of Eve? handed down..

There ARE other ways of dating the earth than the popular one which can be used to suggest the huGe amounts of time they need for their theory to be any where near plausible.

HELIUM. Evaporates (rises, like ones voice) so quickly, there should be none in our atmosphere.

There's an element in the middle of granite which is like an alka seltzer.. it fades and fizzles out. Very quickly. If granite evolved over millions of years, it could not be there. Some non-atheistic scientists have called this the "thumbprint of God" - they call something else that too I heard not long ago but I forget what it was..

The atheistic branches of science (peer pressure) are in control. Papers written up not in support of their theory are not published in their science journals or what not.. Definitely not listened to.

The 2nd highest law of science, the law of entropy states that all matter (and communication) is in a state of falling apart. Not in a state of improvement.. less order, not better, not more complex or able. (Hence our school room experiment of passing information from one end of the class to the other. Same applies to all matter and the genetic code.) Matter evolved into the so highly complex life? That would be quite the miracle.

Some will say, oh but the sunlight entering the system suspended the 2nd law of science, see that leaf on the tree? how it utilizes the sunlight for energy and increased order? (Improvement.) Proof, matter can suspend the 2nd law of science.

Well, pluck that leaf from off of the living tree.. and what happens to it? It burns up! Same principal as the farmer's compost pile. It heats up, is falling apart.  Disintegrating.

Is it only my drapes the sunlight fades? Only my house, car and body tending toward falling apart? Leave your old chevy in the sunny field for a few decades and just watch what happens to it.

Is it 113 amino acids had to line up exactly perfectly in a specific order in order for that first spark of life to form? The one top mathematicians have said is mathematically impossible. Something like one to the 50th degree.. however that works (i never even conquered algebra..) but seen as impossible no matter how big their god time could be, how many millions, oops now billions.. soon trillions? of years..

Just like the 26 letters of the alphabet make up all sentences, all paragraphs, all books and novels.. so the 110? elements make up all things which are.. If a novel doesn't happen randomly, how could all things that are come about randomly?

So "in the beginning there was nothing.. and nothing exploded and became everything.." Now that's quite an immaculate conception!!

You see, it takes MORE faith to believe in evolution (as to origins). And that faith, as 'they' (God bless 'em) like to accuse Christians of, is just about always, blind faith. They simply believe what they are taught. something Christians are ridiculed for..

And there's so many more points.. so many facts and trivia..! And it's such an exciting topic!! ..and there is surely no reason to ever have to be defensive on this topic.. but rather can take the offensive, without being offensive. Like comparing the Rock to shifting sand! Let it be proved any of the points of this popular theory (which turned Christendom on its ear!! the strong delusion and false prophet who helps the little horn, but is not the little horn, imo)

Besides.. most of us "believe" because of an experience we've had with God!
