CREATION MOMENTS: 1.15.16


DARWIN'S HEADHUNTERS

Genesis 1:27

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."
Charles Darwin introduced his theory of evolution in 1859 in the book Origin of Species. Many evolutionists, however, would like people to forget that the full title is On the Origin of Species By Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.

It is undeniable that Darwin promoted racist ideas that could then be solidly founded upon "science." Although he never mentioned Man in his Origin of the Species, the implications were there that Man had come from the animal kingdom.

In his third book, The Expression of Emotions in Man and Animal, published in 1872, Darwin left no doubt about his racist ideas, and head-measuring became a full-time occupation to determine which races were more "evolved" than others. Teams of hunters set out to obtain specimen heads from aboriginal Australian and Tasmanian owners … whether the owners had ceased to use them or not! Entire tribes were shot down, and the museum cases of the "civilized" nations became filled with neatly graduated rows of heads giving supposed "proof" of evolution.

Most evolutionists deny this gruesome chapter in the history of Darwinism. Yet it shows that Darwinism is not only racist, it treats humans as if they were animals. Is it any wonder, then, that most evolutionists are in favor of abortion and euthanasia while creationists oppose these practices? After all, creationists – not evolutionists – know that all people, young and old, are created in the image of God.

Heavenly Father, I look forward to the day You put an end to the evil slaughter of unborn babies, each of whom bears Your image. Amen.

THE FISH FOUNTAIN

1 Corinthians 10:13

"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."
One of my favorite books is Rupert Sheldrake's Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home. Though the book was written by a non-Christian author who happens to be a well-qualified scientist from Cambridge, this book is filled with interesting stories about animal abilities that evolutionists are powerless to explain.

For instance, the author describes a school of fish as resembling a large organism. To paraphrase from the book, the school's members swim in tight formations, wheeling and reversing in near unison. When the school turns to the right or the left, individuals formerly on the flank assume the lead. When under attack, a school may respond by leaving a gaping hole around a predator. More often, the school splits in half and the two halves turn outward, swim around the predator, reverse direction, and eventually rejoin each other. This "fountain effect" leaves the predator ahead of the school. Each time the predator turns, the same thing happens.

Some filmmakers have produced fine video-footage taken in tropical waters, showing schools of fish, perhaps several hundred, all swimming in very close formation. Something alerts them and they all turn in exactly the same direction in a micro-second; there is no confusion, no touching.

Clearly, there is one superb Mind in absolute control of each of those unfettered souls to guide and to keep them and to teach us. That Mind, of course, is the one who created the fish and the oceans in which they live. Jesus is His name.

Heavenly Father, thank You for providing me with a way to escape temptation and for sending Your Son to provide the only way to escape eternal torment. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

MEET A CREATIONIST WHO'S ALSO A NUCLEAR PHYSICIST

Titus 2:1

"But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:"
Evolutionists never seem to tire of taunting creationists with such words as: "If creationists were real scientists, their papers would be published in secular scientific journals."

But Dr. Brandon van der Ventel, professor of physics at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, doesn't allow such statements to go unchallenged. "Creation scientists," he said, "have published many articles in secular journals." He adds, however, that papers from many creation scientists "are ignored and rejected" not because they are faulty, but because they reject "the evolutionary (or billions-of-years) paradigm."

Though this professor once believed that "somehow God must have used evolution", he now rejects that. "If the story of the fall of Man is 'mythology'," he says, "then there is no need for a plan of salvation. This is ultimately an attack on the personage of our Lord Jesus Christ and His redeeming work on the cross."

Though most of his fellow academics reject a worldwide flood, he says that "Jesus explicitly refers to Noah's flood…. This raises the question: If the Lord's statement about Noah's Flood is false, then why should we believe His statement concerning eternal life?"

Dr. van der Ventel turned away from evolution when he realized that the Bible is authoritative even on scientific matters. Doubting Genesis, he said, often leads to "a slippery slide to unbelief, where we can end up questioning the inerrancy and infallibility of the entire Bible."

Heavenly Father, I pray that many other scientists in academia will turn to You in faith and that they will inspire others to turn away from evolution. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

HOW TEARS POINT TO A DESIGNER

Psalm 6:6

"I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears."
Many men today believe that the shedding of tears is a sign of weakness. They seem to have forgotten that Jesus wept when told that Lazarus had died. Jeremiah is known as the "weeping prophet" who shed tears over a backslidden nation. Even David, the slayer of tens of thousands, wrote that he often drenched his bed with tears.

Our Designer not only gave us glands to produce tears, He also gave us an ingenious way to dispose of excess tears. Here is how William Paley described this design feature in his nineteenth-century classic Natural Theology:

"To keep the eye moist and clean … a wash is constantly supplied by a secretion for the purpose; and the superfluous brine is conveyed to the nose through a perforation in the bone as large as a goose quill. When the fluid has entered the nose, it spreads itself upon the inside of the nostril and is evaporated by the current of warm air which in the course of respiration is continually passing over it."

Listen closely to Paley's next words: "It's easily perceived that the eye must want moisture; but could the 'want' of the eye generate the gland which produces the tear, or bore the hole by which it's discharged – a hole through bone?"

The answer, of course, is no, not in a billion years! As any rational person can plainly see, these features were designed by our Creator.

Heavenly Father, thank You for supplying my eyes with tears so that I can see more clearly. Most of all, thank You for giving me the eyes of faith to see that I can have eternal life by trusting in the completed work of Your Son on the cross. Amen.

PLANNED PARENTHOOD'S ROOTS IN DARWINISM

Proverbs 20:17

"Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel."
"Planned Parenthood, the leading government-funded abortion provider in the United States, has a history rooted in Social Darwinism, a sociological theory from evolution's doctrine of survival of the fittest."

With these words, Creation Moments' Mark Cadwallader comments on the underlying reasons on why Planned Parenthood has now been shown to commit sickening atrocities the likes of which have not been seen since the systematic slaughter of millions by the Nazi war machine.

"Evolution," he continues, "regards humans as animals – just more evolved. And as Darwin's theory came into acceptance, so-called experts began treating human beings as glorified animals. Videos have come to light showing doctors calmly discussing the manner in which they crush and dismember babies to preserve decidedly human body parts and organs for sale. Hopefully, such exposés will awaken many people to a mass human atrocity in the same way that images of the holocaust did."

He goes on to write that "an original objective of Planned Parenthood has been to cleanse society of undesirable people – including minorities – so that evolution could be advanced." He then points out that such evil acts are "intellectually justified by the fallacy of evolution."

Christians are feeling more and more like exiles in a world that has grown increasingly hostile to biblical foundations. Just as Daniel and his three friends refused to compromise their faith in the time of their exile, so must the church in our day do what we can to expose and oppose the rotted fruit of evolutionary ideas.

Heavenly Father, I pray that You will bring Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers to utter ruin. Until that day, I pray You will change the minds of many who now feel that abortion is their only recourse. Amen.
