Proof The Bible Is True

Imagine hearing that someone has just won the lottery three times in the same year, or a golfer has hit five consecutive holes-in-one! We approach such improbable stories with healthy skepticism. Considering the formation of the first living cell by a perfect arrangement of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and genetic material in a ‘warm pond’, Nobel Prize winner, Francis Crick, said: “… it seems almost impossible to give any numerical value to the probability of what seems a rather unlikely sequence of events …. An honest man … could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at [More]

People often ask, “How can you believe in God when there isn’t a single shred of evidence—how can you take that leap of faith?” But on the contrary, the Bible tells us that “The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.” and “… since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.” The Bible warns us that, “The fool has said in his heart, “There is [More]

Today, we have been so thoroughly saturated with the ‘slow and gradual’ philosophy that when we look at vast cliffs, landscapes and boulders we tend to immediately associate them with very long ages. Richard and Calvin discuss Surtsey, a young island that looks incredibly ‘old’ and how it relates to the creation/evolution controversy.

Many people have trouble understanding how animals got to distant places around the world after disembarking from Noah’s Ark. While it is likely that humans transported some animals on boats, this is not the only explanation available. Somewhat ironically, Richard Dawkins reminds of this when he writes, “Most islands around the world, even quite remote ones like Ascension Island, have animals. Some of these, for example birds and bats, got there in a way that we can easily understand, without postulating a great deal of luck. But other animals, like lizards, can’t fly. We scratch our heads and wonder how [More]

‘Genesis was written so that simple people could understand it’. For people who hold this view what they usually mean is, ‘God really used evolution, but evolution is too hard to communicate to people who lived long ago, so Moses wrote about how God created in 6 days.’ However, today evolution is communicated to children through critically acclaimed children’s books. This begs the question: if God really did create over millions of years couldn’t Moses have written it that way? Related content • Should Genesis be taken literally?

The Apostle Peter links Jesus’ second coming and judgment of the whole world to the historical reality of Noah’s flood. In 2 Peter 3 he prophesied: “… in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, ‘Where is this “coming” he promised? … But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed.” And Genesis is clear: the words all, every, everything, and entire are [More]

How could scratches in rock disprove the biblical flood? Well, scratches in rock, call striations, are sometimes caused by a glacier moving over bedrock, therefore, when scientists encounter striated rock, they often claim that a glacier caused it. Striation occurs in the sedimentary rock that was laid down in Noah’s Flood, evolutionary geologists claim this is evidences of multiple ancient ice ages, so they claim that Noah’s year-long flood could not have laid down these rocks. However, we now know that underwater landslides cause striations, similar to the ones caused by glaciers today. Furthermore, there are important differences between glacial [More]

Dr Lawrence Krauss calls teaching creationism to children ‘child abuse’. He wants to censor any science that contradicts his beliefs about atheism and evolution over millions of years. However, he doesn’t seem to grasp foundational philosophical and scientific concepts. Teaching lies to children is wrong because there is a moral law that says lying is wrong. But if atheism is true then there can be no moral law other than people’s own opinions. To learn more about the science supporting creation see: Related Articles: Does God Exist?

CMI has seen many people return to Christianity after discovering that evolution is not true. Part 1 of this 2-part discussion focuses on how we can apply the Biblical example of Paul to our evolutionized world as he modified his approach to evangelism so that each group he spoke to would understand the Gospel clearly, given their background knowledge of Biblical events.

Refuting Evolution is a powerful, concise summary that explains where the common ‘evidences’ used to promote evolution in textbooks are wrong, while at the same time showing how creation is better supported by scientific observations. It will stimulate much discussion and help students and teachers think more critically about the creation/evolution debate, particularly the often overlooked differences between operational and historical science and how they relate to the topic of origins.

The Creation Answers Book is CMI’s most popular book because it covers 60 of the most asked questions about Genesis and the creation evolution issue.

Question 4 in CMI’s ’15 Questions for Evolutionists’ flyer challenges evolutionists to explain how natural selection can be the creative process evolutionists require. Natural selection explains the survival of the fittest, adaptation and variation within a kind leading to the great diversity of living things. It fits well with the biblical notion that God created life with the necessary programming to live in a variety of environments. Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith discuss the question and the attempts to answer it.

Even many Christians see this as a reason why we should accept evolutionary conclusions rather than take the Bible as plainly read. By doing so they in danger of repeating the same mistake the church made with Galileo.

What do mice and fruit flies have in common? On the surface, you’d not think much, but geneticists have discovered that some of their genes are practically identical. Discoveries like this are often touted as proof of evolution because the similar genes supposedly show that mice and fruit flies are related. But evolutionary scientists did not predict this. Genetics professor Sean Caroll confessed, “No biologist had even the foggiest notion that such similarities could exist between genes of such different animals.” According to evolutionists, mice and fruit flies last shared a common ancestor over six hundred million years ago, therefore [More]

In 2009 atheists in the United Kingdom launched a public campaign to preach their message of unbelief by using advertising space on public busses. These busses are emblazed with the slogan, “There’s probably no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” Some people find this slogan rather odd. If these atheists are so sure there’s no god why does the sign say, “There’s PROBABLY no god.” Atheists have responded by pointing out that they can’t say there’s no god, because that would be taking a faith position. But perhaps more puzzling is the second part of the slogan, which [More]

Many people are under the mistaken impression that people from different racial backgrounds have big differences in their DNA instructions. But this is not the case. The entire human race has an incredibly low level of genetic variety. Some biologists have remarked that if you sequenced the DNA instruction of two humans on opposite sides of the globe they’d have less change in their DNA than two chimps on the same mountain in Africa. These discoveries have profound implications. Since the human race has relatively low genetic variety that means it must have originated recently. The racial groups have not [More]
