By Ken Ham Does human life begin at conception or fertilization? At Answers in Genesis and the Creation Museum, we make sure we now say human life begins at fertilization. We don’t use the word conception as we have done in the past when discussing the issue of abortion. Why? Many people may not realize this, but the highly respected Stedman’s Medical Dictionary caved to societal pressures and changed the definition of conception. Why did they change the definition? Before we discuss the why, let’s look at the actual change that occurred. In the 26th edition, published in 1995, conception

By Ken Ham For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. (2 Timothy 4:3–4) One of the observations I’ve made in recent times is that basic beliefs Christians have held to for 2,000 years (and the Israelites before them for hundreds more years!) are suddenly being portrayed as radical beliefs. At times, it’s as if those discovering that Christians hold to these beliefs are in shock that

By Ken Ham She/her, he/him, they/them, ze/zir, and the list goes on—should Christian use transgender pronouns? Should we call a man “she/her” if he asks us to? Should we use “they/them” to describe a person? As what are called “preferred pronouns” increasingly pop up in email signatures, on name tags, and in corporate LGBTQ sensitivity training seminars, it’s a question every Christian must grapple with. Dr. Rosaria Butterfield Repents on This Issue I was reminded of this recently when I saw a column written by Dr. Rosaria Butterfield. Dr. Butterfield, a former women’s studies professor and proud lesbian, is now

If a global Flood like the one described in the Bible ever happened, stories of its occurrence would have been passed down over the centuries. That is exactly what we find. Here are three of the over 200 such accounts. Watch: Other Historical Evidences of a Global Flood – Apologetics Press
By Ken Ham Life or death? In Jeremiah 21:8 we read, “And to this people you shall say: ‘Thus says the Lord: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.’” Now, the choice seems easy to us—choose life, of course! But let’s think about this from the perspective of the Israelites to whom this verse in Jeremiah was originally given. The Chaldeans (the Babylonians) had besieged the city of Jerusalem. These people were described by God in Habakkuk 1:6 as a “ruthless” people (NIV). So the people inside the city would be looking at

By Ken Ham President Joe Biden is wrong, anti-biblical, and escalating the war on children and the war on the family—which is ultimately a war on God. Now, that’s a strong way to start this blog—but it’s absolutely true. Consider a recent statement he made while honoring the 2023 national and state teachers of the year. Quoting a former teacher, he stated, There is no such thing as someone else’s child. No such thing as someone else’s child. Our nation’s children are all our children. Let’s judge President Biden’s statement against Scripture. Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,

By Ken Ham Andy Stanley is a teaching pastor with a large flock in the Atlanta area of Georgia. Recently, I was alerted to two clips from sermons he recently preached—and these clips greatly concerned me. Not only do they contain error, but they show a complete lack of respect for the Word of God as what it is—the very Word of God—and as the ultimate authority. How should we respond to what he is teaching in this clip? Now, before watching this clip, please understand I and others on our staff have watched a number of Andy Stanley sermons.

By Ken Ham Am I a Calvinist or an Arminian? I knew that would get your attention! Because I do emphasize the sovereignty of God and the presuppositions that build my thinking, I’ve had some people say I must be a Calvinist. Then I’ve had others say I must not be a Calvinist because I challenge people to commit their lives to the Lord. Some have told me I confuse them, and they can’t figure out if I’m a Calvinist or an Arminian. So, what am I? Well, first, what do these terms mean? Well, people define them in various

By Brian Miller Today’s ID the Future takes a look at how scientists from MIT and Johns Hopkins University are picking up clever engineering tricks by studying the feather design of the Namaqua sandgrouse. Ordinary bird feathers are already a master class in ingenious design, but as Jochen Mueller and Lorna Gibson show in a recent Royal Society Interface paper, the males of this desert-dwelling sandgrouse from southwestern Africa “have specially adapted feathers on their bellies that hold water, even during flight, allowing the birds to transport water back to the chicks at the nest.” Episode guest Brian Miller details

By Ken Ham In August of 2017, Answers in Genesis launched a brand-new Christian school, led by my eldest daughter, Renee Hodge. That school, Answers Academy, really is the result of the legacy my parents passed to me of passion for God’s Word and biblical authority—a passion we passed on to our children. It’s exciting to see her following her passion for biblical worldview within an educational context to provide a school that is not only a blessing to families here in Northern Kentucky but one that, we hope, will impact America and the world as it serves as a
