The hypothesis of evolution fails at several points . It cannot explain the origin of life . Evolutionists sought its explanation in spontaneous generation, an unproved assumption , which is now discredited. It is a well established fact in science that life can only come from antecedent life . Further , it has failed utterly to adduce a single example of one species producing another distinct( organic as distinguished from varietal )species. Bateson said in 1921 "We cannot see how the differentiation in species came about . Variations of many kinds , often considerable , we see daily , but no origin of species.........Meanwhile while our faith in evolution stands unshaken , we have no acceptable account of the origin of species.." Neither has evolution been able to cope with the problems presented by the origin of man . It has not not even succeeded  in proving the physical descent of man from the brute. Much less has it been able to explain the physical side of man's li...

The speaker is God . The time is before time was. The word is omnipotence . The result is the grandest of all gifts . Darkness heard and vanished.  "God said , Let there be be light , and there was light ."  Strive to imagine this scene , when the first voice called the first blessing into being . This world of full delights was one huge mass of unarranged material . It had no form , therefore it had no beauty . It was vacancy, and vacancy wants all that pleases . It would have been cheerless , even if robed in cheering light . But impenetrable night shrouded the lifeless void . From this rude quarry, however , the home of man is to be built . This waste is to be peopled with beings , whose age is immortality. It is to be the field , from which heaven's garner is to be stored. Therefore deformity must assume form:- disorder must melt into order  :-shapelessness must be shaped into loveliness.    How shall this be done ?  -God had but to will , and in one ...

The precise idea of creation is not to be ascertained merely by a consideration of the term used in the beginning of God's written revelation .  The term created is used in the absolute sense to declare the  bringing into existence of the matter out of which the heaven and earth is composed . The first verse of Genesis informs us that God brought the universe into being . The subsequent verses refer to the steps taken to complete the work of creation . These successive parts of the work having been completed, we are told that , "God saw everything that He had made , and behold , it was very good . And the evening and the morning were the sixth day  . Thus the heavens and earth were finished  , and all the host of them ." (Gen.1:31 - 2 :1). Some philosophers while accepting an absolute creation first  , say that this is against reason , but not contrary to faith. It is proper to say ,however , that creation is not against reason , but above reason  and is to...
