Proof The Bible Is True

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future from the vault, Michael Behe is on The Universe Next Door with Tom Woodward to discuss his work that that presents a challenge to neo-Darwinian evolution, including his books Darwin’s Black Box and The Edge of Evolution. Behe explains his “irreducible complexity” concept, and also gives an overview of research by Richard Lenski that shows that random mutation is “like a bull in a china shop.” Note: Behe’s new book, Darwin Devolves: The New Science About DNA That Challenges Evolution, will be out this month! Preorder it now to receive [More]

While not necessarily expressing an adherence to biblical creation, more than 1,000 scientists worldwide have signed on to a “Dissent From Darwinism” statement that expresses skepticism over the theory of biological evolution and calls for the “careful examination” of Charles Darwin’s teachings.   “We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged,” the statement reads.

By Ken Ham This day five years ago, on February 4, 2014, I was finishing up the preparations for the presentation I would make that evening during The tickets to come and watch the debate live in our 900-seat auditorium, Legacy Hall at the Creation Museum, sold out in two minutes, so we knew people were certainly interested! And they definitely were—it’s estimated 3-4 million people tuned in to watch the debate live! And an estimated 20-plus million have watched it altogether. No matter where I go, I hear feedback from people telling me that they watched the debate and [More]

By Michael J. Behe On this episode of ID the Future, Jay Richards interviews biologist and Center for Science and Culture senior fellow Michael Behe on his forthcoming book Darwin Devolves: The New Science About DNA That Challenges Evolution, available now for pre-order. Very recent advances in gene sequencing show that genetic mutations and natural selection sometimes work to create niche advantages, but by breaking genes, not by building new ones. It’s like increasing fuel efficiency by jettisoning things from your car: great if fuel efficiency is a matter of life or death, not so great if you actually wanted [More]

It was an exciting week here at ICR as we watched workers carefully mount nine fossil replicas to the Discovery Center’s exterior wall. Each 12?×12? panel weighs 3,500 pounds! Two of them are based on fossils in ICR’s collection. Artisans carved the replicas out of modeling clay and cast them in concrete. The sequence from left to right reflects the relative order these creatures were buried in the fossil reco… More… …read more Source: icr.org     

By Ken Ham Did Moses really write the first five books of the Bible (known as the Pentateuch or the Torah)? Did he even have the ability to write or the Israelites the ability to read? Most mainstream scholars would answer no to these questions—an answer in direct opposition to the testimony of Scripture (Exodus 17:14, Numbers 33:2, John 5:46). If Moses didn’t write the Pentateuch, this calls into question the truth of Scripture and of the exodus from Egypt. Get answers that powerfully affirm the truth of God’s Word in a brand-new film coming to US theaters March 14, [More]

By Ken Ham Later this month I am heading west for California and a Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) studio to record an episode of Join me on February 20, 2019, in Tustin, California, US, for this afternoon of conversation on creation and evolution, how this relates to the culture, and how you can be equipped to share the truth of God’s Word with others. It’s sure to be a great conversation! Tickets are free but you must register to secure your place. Now, we certainly wouldn’t agree with every theological view shared on the various programs carried by TBN, or [More]

By Ken Ham The book of Hebrews describes the Word of God as, “living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart” (Hebrews 4:12). Scripture is powerful, and we need to be encouraging our children to dig into God’s Word and hide it in their hearts (Psalm 119:11). And you can help families do that through the National Bible Bee’s Summer Study program. Help these young people discover the treasure of God’s Word. Be a Summer Study Host [More]

By Ken Ham Evolutionists have long believed other supposed “species” of humans were primitive and not quite human. Biblical creationists, because we start with a completely different starting point, have long argued that there’s only one species of humans (but a good deal of variety within this species) and that other human varieties were intelligent and fully human, just like us. We believe this because the Bible clearly teaches all humans are descended from Adam and Eve (Genesis 1:27, Genesis 3:20, Acts 17:26), and therefore we’re all related: all one race, the human race. And a new discovery confirms what [More]

By Michael Newton Keas On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid interviews science historian and author Michael Keas about Keas’ new ISI book Unbelievable: 7 Myths About the History and Future of Science and Religion. The myth this time is that the Church tortured Galileo for opposing official teachings on the structure of what we now call the solar system. In fact Galileo had found support for heliocentrism but hadn’t proved it scientifically; there were scientists and theologians both against him and for him; and he wasn’t tortured anyway. There’s plenty here for both scientists and theologians to [More]

By Ken Ham Famous American radio broadcaster Paul Harvey is remembered for a radio program that began, “Now, the rest of the story . . . .” In recent times, Americans have been increasingly waking up to the extreme bias of much of the secular media, with an understanding that you just can’t necessarily trust what the media broadcasts or publishes. Of course, we at Answers in Genesis aren’t surprised by this at all, as our ministry, especially our Ark Encounter and Creation Museum, has been misquoted and misrepresented and has seen facts distorted and information deliberately left out by [More]

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, David Klinghoffer speaks with Dr. Ann Gauger, biologist and Director of Science Communication for Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture, about her recent article “The Transcendental Treasury of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness” at EvolutionNews.org. These abstract concepts don’t derive from the material world, yet we feel impoverished without them; they’re foundations of a life worth living. Materialistic evolutionary explanations for truth, beauty, and goodness fall flat. Some of them even reduce them to mere illusion. It takes a designer who knows truth, beauty, and goodness to explain what we [More]

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID The Future, Andrew McDiarmid talks to Dr. Ann Gauger, a senior research scientist at Biologic Institute and co-author with Dr. Douglas Axe of a new paper recently published in the journal BIO-COMPLEXITY that probes the limits of evolutionary optimization. Gauger explains how she and Axe tested popular hypotheses for protein origins and discovered that while mutation and selection can improve the proficiency of good designs through small adjustments, they seem unable to convert fortuitous selectable activities into good designs.

By Ken Ham In the fight to protect freedom of religion and conscience and the free exercise of religion in America, it seems there’s often bad news. So I thought I’d share some good news with you to encourage you that the fight isn’t over yet and to urge you to continue standing and fighting for our freedoms. Here’s the good news: the state of South Carolina has recently allowed faith-based foster care agencies to abide by their religious convictions and purpose and place children with Christian, church-going families only. An Obama-era regulation barred faith-based and federally funded foster care [More]

By Ken Ham The state of New York has been in the news recently for a horrifying reason. Governor Andrew Cuomo has just signed into law what’s euphemistically called the “Reproductive Health Act.” The New York State Senate passed the Reproductive Health Act (RHA) the evening of the anniversary (January 22) of the tragic Roe v. Wade decision of 1973 that legalized abortion across the US. This act legalized abortion (the murder of children—child sacrifice, I would call it) up until birth for “all factors — physical, emotional, psychological, familial, and the woman’s age—relevant to the wellbeing of the patient.” [More]

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid continues his conversation with historian of science Michael Keas about Keas’ new ISI book Unbelievable: 7 Myths About the History and Future of Science and Religion. In chapter 4 of the work Keas explodes the myth that Giordano Bruno was a martyr for science, as science popularizers such as Neil DeGrasse Tyson make him out to be. Bruno was indeed burned at the stake in 1600 for disagreeing with the Church — which Keas heartily agrees was a bad move on the Church’s part. But Bruno was executed [More]

By Ken Ham Have you ever panned for gold? Explored the Alaskan tundra? Gone fishing while enjoying the stunning panorama of the Alaskan range? Well, you could experience all of this and more alongside popular AiG dinosaur sculptor, adventurer, and singer/songwriter Buddy Davis during a Living Passages tour of Alaska, June 23–28, 2019. Not only will you explore the great outdoors in the “Last Frontier,” but you’ll also enjoy times of worship and teaching with my good friend Buddy. Bodie Hodge and I discussed this upcoming trip with Buddy in a recent Facebook Live video, filmed in the ice age [More]

By Michael Newton Keas On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid continues his conversation with science historian Michael Keas on myths of science and religion, based on Keas’ new work from ISI Books, Unbelievable: 7 Myths About the History and Future of Science and Religion. This time they tackle two golden oldies and a kicker: (1) that the West suffered a thousand-year “Dark Ages” after the fall of the Roman Empire, (2) that the Europeans from this period believed in a flat earth, and — the kicker! — that Christianity was responsible for both errors. Keas asks, if [More]

By Ken Ham Here at Answers in Genesis, we have a heart for children—we want to equip the next generation to think biblically, know how to defend the Christian faith, trust the message of the gospel, and understand how to effectively witness to unbelievers. So, we worked hard to produce world-class children’s curriculum and resources. And one of those great resources, our Vacation Bible School (VBS) program, allows you to reach children in your church and your community with the message of biblical authority and the gospel. I want to encourage churches who put on an annual Vacation Bible School, [More]

By Ken Ham January isn’t usually a time we typically think about the resurrection of Christ—we usually do that in the spring, around Easter season. But the resurrection impacts our lives as Christians every single day. It’s Christ’s victory over the grave that gives us as believers a living hope! So, it’s something we should celebrate each and every day. The Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 15:14–22: And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain, and your faith is in vain. . . . For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ [More]

By Ken Ham During his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus told his followers to use discernment when sharing truth and not “give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs [swine], lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you” (Matthew 7:6 ESV). This means we are to share the gospel but, if and when it becomes obvious the gospel is not welcome and is just being trampled on, we’re to move on and find others who are ready to listen. Some Christians use this as an excuse to avoid engaging with atheists—after all, they’ll [More]
