I do not think I exaggerate when I say that some of us put our offering in the plate with a kind of triumphant bounce as much as to say: “There – now God will feel better!” I am obliged to tell you that God does not need anything you have. He does not need a dime of your money. It is your own spiritual welfare at stake in such matters as these. You have the right to keep what you have all to yourself – but it will rust and decay, and ultimately ruin you.

Scientific Red Faces

Scientific Red Faces SCIENTIFIC RED FACES by Wayne Jackson

The more we read from the works of evolutionary “scientists,” the more unimpressed we are with their conclusions.

As almost everyone knows, the Earth is supposed to be almost 5 billion years old, while man has been around only some 3 or 4 million years. These estimates are pure speculation based upon dating methods that are grounded in evolutionary assumptions. There is NO hard-core test that can determine the age of the Earth. Most people believe this simply because they accept what is presented in the media.

Several years ago some scientists discovered human bones buried under thick deposits of mud in California. The bones were submitted to “competent” authorities who declared them to be about 75,000 years old. Unfortunately, however, as they dug deeper, they found an old United States Army button. Now, maybe the United States had an army 75,000 years ago—or just maybe the scientific dating methods are not all that reliable!

Recently an archaeological excavation team, led by professor Mitsuo Kawaga of Beppu University, discovered drawings on the wall of a cave on the Japanese island of Kyushu. The excited scientists announced that the drawings were from 10,000 to 13,000 years old. Alas, a lifelong resident of the area came forward to confess that he had often scribbled on the walls of the cave with charcoal when he was a boy. The “scientists” had only missed it by about 99.99%!

Why is it that when “scientists” say that something is billions of years old, the average person believes it as if the object had a date carved upon it?

When Christians accept the dates which are a part of the evolutionary system, they are playing right into the hands of infidelity.
