QUESTIONMODULE 10, Assignment 10 page 25- 28 Assignment guide.

CREATION THEOLOGY - Systematic Teaching.10.1 Enter into dialogue with the author of “Ex Nihilo” (Dr. de Villiers – prescribed text

book) on the following topic: “Defend both in turn the Young-Earth Theory andthe Old Earth Theory. Motivate your answers”

1. INTRODUCTION.

(A) The Hexaemeron, or the Work of the separate Days.After the creation of the universe out of nothing in a moment of time, the existing chaos

was gradually changed into a cosmos, a habitable world, in six successive days. Beforethe work of the separate days is indicated, the question as to the length of the days of creation calls for a brief discussion.

(B) Consideration of the view that they were literal days.The prevailing view has always been that the days of Genesis 1 are to be understoodas literal days. Some of the early Church Fathers did not regard them as realindications of the time in which the work of creation was completed, but rather as literaryforms in which the writer of Genesis cast the narrative of creation, in order to picture thework of creation – which was really completed in a moment of time – in an orderlyfashion for human intelligence. It was only after the comparatively new science of

geology and paleontology came forward with their theories of the enormous age of theearth, that the theologians began to show and inclination to identify the days of creationwith the long geological ages.

(C) The literal interpretation of the term “day” in Gen. I is favored by the followingconsiderations:

(a) In its primary meaning the word “ yom” denotes a natural day; and it is a goodrule in exegesis, not to depart from the primary meaning of a word, unless thisis required by the context. Dr. Noortzij stresses the fact that this word simplydoes not mean anything else than “day” such as this is known by man onearth.

(b) The author of Genesis would seem to shut us up absolutely to the literalinterpretation by adding in the case of every day the words, “and there wasevening and there was morning” Each one of the days mentioned has just oneevening and morning, something that would hardly apply to a period of thousands of years. And if it should be said that the periods of creation wereextraordinary days, each one consisting of one long day and one long night,then the question naturally arises, What would become of all the vegetationduring the long, long night?

2



(c) In Ex/ 20:9-11 Israel is commanded to labor six days and to rest on theseventh, because Jehovah made the heaven and earth in six days and restedon the seventh day. Sound exegesis would seem to require that the word“day” be taken in the


same sense in both instances. Moreover the Sabbath set aside for rest certainlywas a literal day; and the presumption is that the other days were of the same kind.

(d) The last three days were certainly ordinary days, for they were determined bythe sun in the usual way. While we cannot be absolutely sure that thepreceding days did not differ from them at all in length, it is extremely unlikelythat they differed form them, as periods of thousands upon thousands of yearsdiffer from ordinary days. The question may also be asked, why such a long

period should be required for instance for the separation of light and darkness.

Gen 1:1 In the beginning ELOHIM /YHVH created the heaven and the earth. /E-Sword

2. LOOKING AT THE BEGINNING.Taken from Page 2 Dr. de Villiers “ The first few chapters of the Bible have been anembarrassment for many Christians as far as science is concerned. Throughout thecenturies there has been an ongoing conflict between science and the Bible and it isintended to discuss along these lines” -( taken from E44 Creation “Ex Nihilo” ChristianLife”)

1. Strengthen SCRIPTURAL/HEBREW faith.2. Erase doubts on SCRIPTURAL reliability concerning Creation.3. Reach evangelically those who reject the SCRIPTURES

MARIA: * A lot of people including people called them believers of God “Muslims”bombarded US with a lot of questions and arguments about the validity of the Word of God : The SCRIPTURES.

• The uttermost apostasy is now the “Da Vinci Code” where thereis stated that Jesus and Maria Magdalena had a sexual relationship and had a childand a lot of other frequent argues also about the trustworthiness of the Scripture asThe true Word (and only Word of God).• Regarding the evidence of creation given in Genesis 1 and thesupposed evidence of fossils and fissionable minerals in the geological evidencethat the Earth is billion of years old. Other viewpoints “based on so called science”(but we have to remember that evolution is not science but a believe system.)“Evolution” and the “Age of the earth”

• Well none of the above mentioned or unnamed arguments is the realissue! The true issue is that what I believe that the Bible is the only true Word of YHVH and that you cannot take away or added unto it. That’s Authority!

• Now the question is can we believe in the Bible? A BIG YES!

3. WHAT IS THE Scriptures ; The Scriptures & Torah is YHVH covenant and directmanner of command us to obey, consisting of the Old and New Testament, it is themost informal useful and important Book on any subjects. And to keep the Sabbath.

MARIA REYNEKE

B-DEGREE CALVARY 32706/0503 W.I.T.M.I.Bibliology: A study of the Scriptures . (comes from “biblos” meaning book.)As in studying the Bible we need to look briefly at some short topics.

Supernatural: Why do we value the Scriptures so highly? Because it is theWord of YHVH, because it is His Revelation to us, and because it issupernatural in nature.

The supernaturalness: of the Word is seen in the fact that there is acomplete unity of thought throughout the book. It is a self declaration of Elohim, not man’s view of Him. It is a system of Him. It is a system of lifethat works. This has been testified to through all generations. Finally there isno way that man could have come up with the thoughts and principles of the

Scriptures and Torah (1rst 5 books in Scriptures). Authenticity: The Scripture is trustworthy, credible and authentic.

Yahashua authenticated the Old Testament in His use of it. Genuineness: This relates to the questions of dating and authorship. Were

the books of the Scriptures written by the man that the book states, and atthe time indicated? If not they are not genuine, yet if they are, then they aregenuine.

Preservation and revelation: We will and can see in the Scriptures that it isrevealed that it is the Word of YHVH. We see that it is complete, trustworthy,and genuine. We will see that we can, and should understand the Scripturesas we study, that it is the only guide for our life here on earth & to obey the

commandments of Elohim. Miracles: The Old Testament is based on the Miracle of YHVH revealing

Himself during the Exodus from Egypt and the division of the Red Sea. TheNew Testament’s credibility is based on the naming of its witnesses and thatJesus rose from the dead (1 Cor 15:14-17)

Unity: The 66 books of the Scriptures was written over a long period of timelike 1,600 years Plus minus, ant tell the one unfolding amazing story that isconfirmed through the whole Book. (Old and new Testament)

Historical and Geographical Accuracy: Modern archeologists provedreliable evidence of people, places and cultures as described in theScriptures. Just as divergent the geographic locations are the various books.

Prophetic Accuracy : Central to the Old Testament the prophecy of Jesuswas fulfilled in the New Testament. Most of these predicted events arefulfilled and we read all about it in the Word.

Endorsement by Yahashua : Yahashua recommended the Scriptures andto obey and read Torah with His whole life. He spoke and say “it is written” several times. He endorsed the Old Testament and that it contained thestory about His life (John 5:39-40) History proves that His life surpassesevery other human who was ever born from creation until now.

Survival of the Bible: The Scriptures is the most loved and simultaneouslyhated Book ever written. 500 years before the earliest Hindu scriptures thebooks of Moses were already written. The Scriptures a Measuring Tool: .

MARIA REYNEKE

B-DEGREE CALVARY 32706/0503 W.I.T.M.I.

Language translated book :To date it is the world’s most translated bookever in the universe and the bestseller of them all.

The Scriptures changes lives by the reading power and the Ha Kodesh:It is proven that through many years, history books and testimonies that thosewhose lives has been changed by the Bible is the only true testimonies of time. The Ten Commandments is used to direct moral lifestyles. TheSermon on the Mount gave millions and still today an antidote for stubbornness and legalism. Changed witnesses are a lot we can’t even countthem because not all is written down.

The Scriptures changes Nations: Even entire nations like the Celts of Ireland, The Vikings of Norway, and for today nations like Korea (South)through teaching by Paul Yonki Cho has changed a whole Nation, we cancarry on testimonies of governmental changes in a lot of states was so radicalthat the prisons is empty and the police have not work, they write out just afew parking tickets.

Therefore: there is enough evidence for the Scriptures and Teaching the Torah, that itis the true Word spoken and written down by men over a period of time – no man /humancan come through anything think out or statement what so ever to not agree. Even a socalled Atheist when in trouble called out “O! God help me! Isn’t this ironic? Sometime willcome and soon that ever knee will bow and ever tong confessed that Yahashua was Lord

and everything written in the Scriptures was and is still is the True Revelation of ONETRUE CREATOR YHVH. Maria

4. MAIN POINTS ; CREATION VERSUS EVOLUTION.Dr. de Villiers : (page 2) Verse 1 “bara” infers that God had created the wholeUniverse and earth out of nothing.

I want to explain the above point as follows : 4 points in the order of (a) – (d)Creation as an act by which something is brought forth out of nothing:

(a) The doctrine of creation is absolutely unique. There’s been a great dealof speculation about the origin of the world, and several theories have beenproposed. Some declared the world to be eternal, while others saw in it theproduct of an antagonistic spirit (Gnostics). Some maintained that it wasmade out of pre-existing matter which God worked up into form (Plato);others held that its originated by emanation out of the divine substance(Syrian Gnostics, Swedenborg); and still others regarded it as thephenomenal appearance of the Absolute, the hidden ground of all things

5



(Pantheism). In opposition to all these vain speculations of men the doctrineof Scripture stands out in grand sublimity: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”

(b) Scriptural terms for “ to create” In the narrative of cration, as was pointedout in the preceding, three verbs are used, namely, “bara’, ‘asah, and

yatsar, and they are


((b) Scriptural terms continue.)

“used, interchangeably in Scripture, Gen 1:26,27; 2:7. The first word is the mostimportant. Its original meaning is to split, to cut, to divide; but in addition to this it alsomeans to fashion, to create, and in a more derivative sense, to produce, to generate, andto regenerate. The word itself does not convey the idea of bringing forth something outof nothing, for it is even used of works of providence. Yet it has a distinctive character.

The word ‘asah” is more general, meaning to do or to make, and is therefore used inthe general sense of doing, making, manufacturing or fashioning. The word “yatsar” has,more distinctively, the meaning of fashioning out of pre-existent materials, and istherefore used of the potter’s fashioning vessels out of clay. None of these words inthemselves express the idea of creation out of nothing. “(the doctrine of God – SystematicTheology page 132)

(c) Meaning of the term “creation out of nothing” :” The expression “ tocreate or bring forth out of nothing” is not found in the Scripture. It is derivedfrom one of the Apocrypha, namely, II. Macc. 7:28. the expression “ex nihilo “ has been both misinterpreted and criticized. Some even considered

the word hihilum (nothing) as the designation of a certain matter out of which the world was created, a matter without qualities and without form.But this is too puerile to be worthy of serious consideration. Others took theexpression – “to create out of nothing” to mean that the world came intobeing without a cause, and proceeded to criticize it as conflicting with whatis generally regarded as an axiomatic truth, “ ex nihilo nihil fit” (out of nothing comes nothing). But this criticism is entirely unwarranted. To saythat God created the world out of nothing is not equivalent to saying that theworld came into being without a cause. ELOHIM Himself or, morespecifically, the will of God is the cause of the world. Martensen: expresseshimself in these words: “ The nothing out of which YHVH creates the world

are the eternal possibilities of His will, which are the sources of all theactualities of the world.” If the Latin phrase “ex nihilo nihil fit” be taken tomean that no effect can be without a cause, it’s the doctrine of creation outof nothing. But if it be understood to express the idea that nothing canoriginate, except out of previously existing material, it certainly cannot beregarded as a self-evident truth. Then it is rather a purely arbitraryassumption which as Shedd points out, does not even hold true of man’sthoughts and volitions, which are “ex nihilo” . But even if the phrase does

Also on page 22 showing the Figure of the Hominids, (all outward appearance of sketches is purely fictitious” These following about the hominids : “The hominids are allconsidered to have come independently from a chain of supposed generalized ancestorswhose fossils also have not yet been found. Anthropologists acknowledge that all thehominids have died out excepting.”

Gen 1:26 And YHVH said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let themhave dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, andover all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; maleand female created he them.


1. The happiness of man or of humanity.Some of the earlier philosophers such as Plato, Philo, and Seneca, asserted that thegoodness of YHVH prompted Him to create the world. He sired to communicate Himself to His creatures; their happiness was the end He had in view. Though some Christiantheologians chimed in with this idea, it became prominent especially through theHumanism and also the evolution theory. The best form in which it is stated is to the effectthat YHVH could not make Himself the end of creation, because He is sufficient untoHimself and could need nothing. And if He could not make Himself the end, then this canbe found only in the creature, especially in man, and ultimately in his supreme happiness.2. The origin of Man.If you like titles, you might try the following for this section, Origin of the Originals.

The secular anthropologist has a dim view of man. They view him as only anintegrated part of the natural order. He has form, and must obey the same laws of nature as the other animal life. He is like a laboratory where chemicals areprocessed. He takes in materials for his own use and processes them as do theother animals.

It would seem that our mothers missed the boat when they named us. Myname should be S.D. Laboratories. If man is nothing but one of the (apes) animalsand nothing more than a part of the natural order then man is a product of nature,rather than YHVH. We know better because of the knowledge we gain from theWord of YHVH and the Scriptures and Torah.

The two major systems of thought today, as to the origin of man are Evolution

and Biblical creationism. The evolutionary side is based on speculation, conjectureand assumption and lots of the latter. Biblical creationism is based upon theRevelation of YHVH to man It is truth in all that it communicates and can beaccepted as such. The evolutionist offers many proofs, but no PROOF as such. They havepresented many things over the years and Christianity has been kind enough toshoot all of them down. Indeed, evolution had been laid to rest in the religiouscircles as a false teaching, until a few years ago when Carl Sagan decided to

8



make a bundle of money on the resurrected evolutionary theories of the past. Heis a very good communicator and has been able to gain the capital to producesome very fine television shows to push his new, yet old ideas.

Within the evolutionary proponents we have two basic camps. The out andout evolutionist that holds to The Darwinian thinking and the Biblical people that

want to allow for the evolutionist in Biblical circles (these are the Theisticevolutionists)

We are created in YHVH’S image then it is also somewhat indicated that weshould act in His images as well. You might jot down 1 Peter 1:16 Matt. 5:48 toremember for future reference as well. We are to be conformed to the image of YAHASHUA. We can only do that as we conform to the dictates of the Scriptures.This is where our morals will come from.


(The origin of Man continues)

If we leave the SCRIPTURES and YHVH out of the origin of man that we canlook to apes and tadpoles for moral standards. If YHVH and the SCRIPTURES areleft out then man is left to dream up his own theologies, and that he does.

Some suggest that one is mankind in general and that two is speakingspecifically of Adam. Shafer suggests the term Cosmical in relation to it beingmankind and the term physiological in relation to Adam specifically.

Genesis 1:27 seems to speak quite specifically about the subject of creation(man could not evolve from a ape) since YHVH mentions it three times inone verse it might be indicated that God believes that He is the creator. YHVH didit, He said it, we believe it because faith allows it (Heb. 11:3)

Within man’s abilities of observation, there are things which tend to confuse

us. The evolutionist on the one hand says that we descend from the monkey. Aswe observe the monkey, we can see that we are similar. On the other hand YHVHtells us that He created the animals, and then another order, man. We may seesimilarity to ourselves in the monkey, yet we know from the Word that there is amajor difference. We can respond to the Creator and the monkey can onlyrespond to his surrounding and needs. Man may have many similarities however we have one very prominent anddistinct dissimilarity. Man Has A Spiritual Nature And There Is No Animal That Has This. We Are Formed In The Divine Image.

Genesis does not allow for an evolution for Adam. He was created completeand mature. The fact that Adam was created mature is indicated by the following:

No pacifier, formula or diapers are mentioned 2. He was told to tend the garden.This would require mature motor skills to operate in such a manner. 3. He spokewith YHVH, thus he had speech skills. By the way how do you suppose he felt themoment that he became conscious? Did YHVH create him with memories? DidAdam have a knowledge of YHVH built in- Did he come with completed memorybanks concerning gardening and family life?

YHVH created Adam as an adult, and as a complete being in all respects.There were no recalls on the defective model.

9



One question that has come to many minds is, “When did YHVH create?”There are many theories and ideas. .

We don’t really know when creation took place. There is a feeling that is fairlygeneral today that creation would have been four to 6,000 years before Yahushua

There is no real way of dating the creation. Indeed, I see little value in

knowing, for the evolutionist would not believe it even if we could prove a date. It is easy to see that man of all cultures and civilizations are descended fromone source, and that source Noah, or ultimately Adam. In fact in the late 80’sscientists decided that all of mankind was descended from a woman they calledEVE. This common ancestry of man is called the unity of man.


Harrisburg, PA: Christian Publications, 1926, page 140-141) He views theunity of the race from four aspects: From History: History seems to indicate thatthere was a common ancestry for all races, centered in Central Asia.

From Language: There is evidence that all major languages come from oneoriginal language. The lesser languages could certainly flow from that one originallanguage as well.

From Psychology: There is a commonness to all races in the mind games thatwe play. We all have a concept of right and wrong, though it varies from race torace. From Physiology: Man, no matter the race has a similar physiology. Theheart rate is similar, any race can mate with any other, and the averagetemperature is similar. All races are susceptible to all diseases.” These are takenfrom pages 727-734 The Ages Digital Library THEOLOGY DERICKSON’S NOTES ON THEOLOGY . A Study Gook in Theology by Stanley L. Derickson. Digital

Version 1.0 1997.

Maria: The Scriptures is very clear and tells us what happened and we can by faithaccept it. Man on the other hand, in his lost state, does not want to accept anythingthat the Scriptures has to say, so usually allows himself to create new and better theories (so they think very clever and full of boasting)that are based on very littleevidence, truth or knowledge. I and you can trust that if you have any doubts in thearea of the creation of the earth and man that you will simply accept, by faith, theScriptural account. I have always said, that it would take more faith to hold toevolution, that it does to accept creationism.

Dr. de Villiers : (page 35) “The age for the universe has been determined by manyastronomical techniques e.g. rate of expansion of the universe; birth of a star; massdensity of the universe etc. The calculated average figure being 17,000 million years,give or take a few billion years” E44 Creation “Ex Nihilo” Christian Life.

Maria: Not in a million years can we see distant stars (yoke) Now isn’t this a very oddstatement, really how can anybody see distant stars (millions or billions of light-yearsaway) in a young 6000 year- old universe? Dr. D Russel Humphreys, well knownyoung-Earth creationist and nuclear physicist made a model which bests answers this

10



challenge to-date. This model opposes the starting point assumption of the “big Bang”hypothesis, namely that the universe is bounded, with a center and an edge. Mygoodness can this be? Anybody in his/her right mind knowing about a wonderful Godand listen and read this lies and whatever believe in it will stand before a AlmightyGod. This statement of Dr. Humphreys implies a net gravitational effect toward the

center, with General Realtivity (GR) demanding that gravity distorts time , demandingthat time near the edge be accelerated relative to Earth-based time near the center, arelativistic concept know as “gravitational time dilation” a GR permitted black holerunning in reverse. This past expansion of space-time is supported not only byobservational evidence from the astro-sciences but, more importantly by the writtenWord of God in the Bible at least 17 verses of the Old Testament that refer to theCreator having “stretched (or spread) out” the heavens.


5. YOUNG EARTH VERSUS OLD EARTH.The general meaning of creationism affirms that the universe is a creation of God, andhence that a world – view such as naturalism is untrue.

Lets Look at the following: page 44 With all these evidences available the physicalscientists are convinced that the earth must be millions of years old. E44, Creation “Ex Nihilo” Christian Life. Dr. de Villiers.

Maria: A. : Creation give the world a distinct, yet always dependent existence. Thismeans that the world is not YHVH nor any part of YHVH, but something absolutelydistinct from YHVH; and that is differs from YHVH, not merely in degree but in its

essential properties. The doctrine of creation implies that, while YHVH is self-existentand self sufficient, infinite and eternal, the world is dependent, finite, and temporal. Theone can never change into the other. This doctrine is an absolute barrier against theancient idea of emanation, as well as against all pantheistic theories. The viewpoint of ayoung-earth receives much resistance from the majority of scientists but Paul warns us in1 Cor. 8:2, 3 e-Sword

1Co 8:2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought toknow. 1Co 8:3 But if any man love YHVH, the same is known of him.

Who are ye that you think you can compare your ideas and theology and wrongbelieve with a YHVH that create everything? Christian leaders should guard againstacademic pride in order to rather believe the Scriptures. YHVH is not a God that He

should or can lie (Tit 1:2) and He reveals to us the actual age of what He created.In both issue of a “young earth” versus an “old earth” I came to the conclusion thatin both Christian and secular worlds, those who are involved in the creationmovement are characterized as “Young Earthers”. The supposed battle is between“old earthers” who consists of a group anti-God evolutionists as well as many“conservative” Christians.

11



I am as a supporter in the Torah, willing to accept the authority of the Word of YHVH asan infallible revelation from our omniscient Creator. The Scriptures is the only revelationand the only true revealing of Who YHVH is, self-authenticating and self-attesting.

• The universe is not the existence-form of God nor thephenomenal appearance of the Absolute.

• YHVH is not simply the life, or soul, or inner law of the world,but enjoys His own eternally complete life above the world, in absoluteindependence of it.

• Te is the transcendent ELOHIM, glorious in holiness, fearful inpraises, doing wonders.

• This doctrine is supported by passages of Scripture:

• Testify to the distinct existence of the world, Isa.42:5 Acts 17:24;

• Speak of the immutability of YHVH, Ps. 102:27 Mal.3:6; Jas. 1:17

• Draw a comparison between YHVH and the creature, Ps. 90:2,102:25-27 103:15-17; Isa. 2:21; 22:17 etc. and

•Speak of the world as lying in sin or sinful, Rom 1:18-32 ; I John2:15-17 etc.

B. THE WORLD IS ALWAYS DEPENDENT ON YHVH.

1. While YHVH gave the world an existence distinct from His own, He did notwithdraw from the world after its creation but remained in the most intimate connectionwith it. The universe is not like a clock which was wound up by YHVH and is nowallowed to run off without any further divine intervention.

“This deistic conception of creation is neither biblical nor scientific. YHVH is not onlythe transcended God, infinitely exalted above all His creature; He is also theimmanent ELOHIM, who is present in every part of His creation, and whose Spirit isoperative in all the world. He is essentially, and not merely per potentiam, present inall His creature, but He is not present in every one of them in the same manner. “

THE SCRIPTURES AND TORAH PROCLAIMING THE AGE OF THE EARTH .Using the scripture self as a guide proof of above statement age of earth

6000 YEARS Fall of Jerusalem (588 BC counting backwards the 390 + 40 years = 1018 BC (Ezek.4:4-7)Prophesied number of years till the division of Solomon’s kingdom.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------From end of Solomon’s 40 year reign to start of Calculate backwards +37 = 1055 BCThe Temple in 4th year.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------From starting of Solomon’s Temple in 480th Hence 479 years previous = 1534 BCYears back to Exodus from Egypt--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Exodus out of Egypt to Abraham’s entering Exactly 430 years = 1964 BC (Gen 12:10)

Genealogy of Genesis 5:3-32 precludes any gaps Gives 1,656 yrs between Creation & flood =Due to its tight chronological structure. Creation week to 3987 BC or 4000 BC

The SCRIPTURAL AGE of the earth is calculated at 6,000 years and not millions or billions

YAHASHUA our Savior also the Creator said He made mankind male and female in thebeginning (Mark 10:6) Jesus YAHASHUA was also the Spoken Word go out oncreating John 1:1-4 taken form E-Sword.Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with YHVH , and the Word was

YHVH. Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with YHVH.Joh 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Joh 1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.


C. HOW OLD IS THE EARTH, WORLD VIEWS.

Clearly the SCRIPTURES dates add up to +- 6,000 years

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God 2Tim. 3:15

Worldview : Humanist world view; Man is YHVH and answers to o one – AKA – the big bang theory, supported by evolution

Creationist world view; YHVH made the world – He owns it, man will be

judged because of sin. Main Questions asked by man is * Why am I here? * Who am I? * Where

am I going? * Where did I come from?

Questions answers if evolutionist. Why: There is no purpose of life.. do whatyou want to. Who? If evolution is true, I’m not important I am just protoplasmthat washed up on the beach. Where am I going? - going to the graveyardand recycled. Where dot I come from? - cosmic burp.

To deceive – Mix Truth with a Lie.

6. IN CONCLUSION. I Just want to conclude in also naming the 6 types of Evolution and the effect and

danger in our world and moral society.1. Cosmic evolution – The origin of time space and matter the Big Bang Theory.2. Chemical evolution – The origin of higher elements from hydrogen.3. Stellar and Planetary evolution – Origin of stars and planets – no one has

ever seen a star form.4. Organic evolution – Origin of life.5. Macro evolution – changing from one kind of animal into another.6. Micro evolution – variations within kinds.

Evolutionists assume that adding energy (open system) will overcome the second law of thermodynamics… but there are limiting factors. The universe is a closed system,adding energy is destructive without a more energy destroys.

In 1955 Pres. Eisenhower asked congress for money to promote evolution science in

schools. By 1963 textbooks went from 2-3000 words of evolution, to 33,089 words.The effects of teaching evolution in schools since 1963.

Rise in pre-marital sex

Rise in sexually transmitted deceases

Rise in birth rates for unwed girls in age groups 10-14 years

Increase of children born out of wedlock

Rise in unmarried couples living together

Rise in divorce rates

Violent crimes increase up to 995% children are taught that they are animals

Addiction increase

Drug abuse and increase, S.A.T. scores dropped in schools

7. STUDENT’S OVERALL VIEWPOINT.

2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord YHVH is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering towards us not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” The fire will not touch the ones in the water. YHVH’S judgments will not hurt those inYAHASHUA

We as Believers and Torah keepers must interpret the Word of YHVH and study it in aresponsible way!We are all accountable to YHVH for every soul that has been lost and lie to because of unnecessary confusion by men in their own lust after power, regarding creation. Theissue is not Young or Old Earth, but a challenge to the Authority of YHVH’s Word! Nowtoday more than ever we are in the last days and we will certainly not for long maybethis generation : SEEING YAHASHUA COMING FOR HIS BRIDE. Maria.
