Proof The Bible Is True

Research in recent years by leading (evolutionist) geneticists has revealed catastrophically high mutation rates in humans. This would be a good thing if mutations really cause upward evolution. Instead the human race is plunging toward extinction. Based on data from genetics humans could not have been evolving for millions of years, we would already be extinct.

Have you ever wondered how Noah would have fitted dinosaurs on the ark? For example, how would a large sauropod like brachiosaurus even get in the door? This question is often used to challenge the validity of the Bible, but new research has provided a stunning answer. By studying the growth rings in dinosaur bones, scientists have discovered that dinosaurs underwent a tremendous adolescent growth spurt. Take, for example, the huge Apatosaurus. Scientists have hypothesized that their growth spurt started at about five years of age, when they weighed one ton. During the spurt however, they put on about five [More]

Creation Ministries International staff, many from a wide range of scientific disciplines, have produced thousands of articles now available in a massive online database. Some of the topics include the feasibility of Noah’s Ark and evidence for a global flood, scientific arguments that explain observations made from astrology, within a young-earth timeframe. Recent discoveries that support dinosaurs fitting within the Bible’s timeframe, biological evidence that shows that the changes observing in living things have absolutely nothing to do with evolution.

Scientists studying fossil ‘sea spiders’ from ‘Jurassic’ rock found they are just the same as today’s sea spiders. By evolutionary reckoning, that’s no change in 160 million years. In that supposed time, evolutionists say, most of the dinosaurs, birds, many fish and virtually all mammals have evolved—all by natural processes. From finches to albatrosses, and mice to elephants—they all made themselves by evolutionary processes. They also say most of the flowering plants evolved too. And yet the sea spiders haven’t changed in all that time! Curious isn’t it? The Bible tells us in Genesis chapter 1 that God created plants [More]

If Arnold Schwarzenegger had a pet cow, I can almost guarantee it would be a Belgian Blue. These cows are incredibly muscled and have very little fat. Many people think of this breed as evolution in action—because a mutation in its DNA has brought about a supposed improvement. But if microbes really did turn into Belgian Blue cows—which is what evolution teaches—this would require the addition of lots of new DNA information to turn the relatively simple genome of a bacteria into the vastly more complicated genome of a cow. However, in the case of Belgian Blue cows, we see [More]

A question people often ask is “Does the Bible mention dinosaurs”? You might expect that the Bible would mention the most impressive land-dwelling beasts of God’s creation, since He created them on Day 6 along with people. Indeed, in Job Chapter 40, God directs Job to consider the crowning glory of his creation, “Behemoth”, as testimony to his creative power. “Behemoth” is described as a colossal beast, feeding on grass like an ox and living in marshes, with great strength in its loins and power in the muscles of its belly. Its bones are like “tubes of bronze”, and it [More]

Dogs vary greatly in size, from Chihuahua to Great Dane, yet they are all part of the dog, or wolf, created kind; they can all interbreed. Researchers have found that the small breeds of dogs all have something in common, a mutation in the gene that codes for an important growth regulator. This prevents the small dogs from growing to greater size. Mutations do that sort of thing, they destroy genetic information. Sometimes those destructions are useful to us, producing cute miniature dogs that don’t cost that much to feed. But mutations can’t produce the complex information needed to produce [More]

When most people hear the word ‘explosion’, they often think of destroyed buildings and injured people. But geologists have long recognized a different type of ‘explosion’ in earth’s sedimentary rocks, known as the Cambrian explosion. Cambrian rocks are a group of rocks—found around the world—in which we find fossils of many of the major animal groups. This is significant because Precambrian rocks, found below the Cambrian, don’t generally contain much fossil material—but then in the Cambrian—there are fossils in abundance. In fact, this transition is so dramatic that some call it the Cambrian Big Bang. But probably the most devastating [More]

Is the human genome full of parasites? This might seem like a ridiculous question but some researchers suggest that it is. The human genome project revealed a large number of transposable elements. These DNA segments copy themselves and move around the genome. Some scientists claim they serve no function and have dismissed them as parasitic DNA. Some evolutionary scientists claim that similarities with chimps in these supposedly useless bits prove evolution. But new research shows they have functions. One study revealed that transposable elements activate during embryo development in mice, to control gene expression. Another study revealed they activate in [More]

It’s often claimed that evolution is simply change over time. And since change over time can be seen everywhere, then evolution is obviously true. But highly trained creation scientists say there is much more to it than that. For evolution to have turned particles into people a special type of change is needed. That is naturally occurring change that adds new genetic instructions. No one has seen this special kind of change happen, Darwin’s Finches, peppered moths and adapting bacteria are all examples of naturally occurring change but none of them adds new genetic instructions. Not one of them adds [More]

In 2003, the Nobel Prize for Medicine was awarded to the pioneers of MRI scanning technology. But of those honored for this amazing medical breakthrough, there was a glaring omission. Incredibly, the Nobel Committee did not recognize Dr Raymond Damadian, who is widely known as ‘the man who invented the MRI scanner’. The two men who did receive the Nobel Prize certainly contributed to the field, but there is no doubt that Damadian made the pioneering breakthroughs. And what makes his exclusion even more suspect is that up to three people can share the award. It does make you wonder [More]

In 2001 a fossil skull found in Chad electrified the world’s scientific community. Nicknamed ‘Toumai’, this creature supposedly lived when the human and chimp lineages allegedly split, making it the oldest human ancestor ever found. The leader of the team that made the discovery confessed: ‘It’s a lot of emotion to have in my hand the beginning of the human lineage…I have been looking for this for so long. I knew I would one day find it, so it is a large part of my life.’ But not all scientists accept this conclusion. For instance, Dr Brigitte Senut of the [More]

In 1947 a crash landing occurred in Roswell, New Mexico, that people still talk about. According to many UFO believers, aliens from another world crash-landed their flying saucer, and the US government has tried to cover it up ever since. This claim was given impetus with the release of a 1995 documentary that claimed to show genuine footage of autopsies on aliens that were recovered from the crash site. But the credibility of this film experienced its own ‘crash landing’ when one of the actors paid to take part in the documentary publicly confessed it was a hoax. So what [More]

You’ve probably heard that, ‘diamonds are a girl’s best friend’, but diamonds also teach us an important lesson about the age of the earth. Diamonds are made of carbon. One rare type of carbon—known as carbon 14—is radioactive, which means that it breaks down over time. By measuring the amount of decay, scientists estimate how old something is. Some people think that carbon 14 dating proves things happened millions of years ago. But that is wrong, because carbon 14 decays so fast that something a million years old could not contain any carbon 14. Geophysicist Dr John Baumgardner recently investigated [More]

When you consider the 206 bones in your body, a humble toe bone does not seem that significant. But in July 2001, Time Magazine ran a cover story where a single toe bone was the star attraction. The article featured a recent fossil discovery from Ethiopia, which allegedly showed how mankind’s ape-like ancestors first stood up on two legs. Readers were told ‘Meet your newfound ancestor, a chimp-like forest creature that stood up and walked 5.8 million years ago’. Remarkably, however, they based their claim that this creature walked upright, and was supposedly our ancestor, on the shape of a [More]

In some parts of Africa, it is actually an advantage to have mutated, oddly-shaped red blood cells. This condition, known as sickle cell anemia, is usually a disadvantage, but, ironically, it can actually help protect someone from malarial infection because a sickled red blood cell is less appetizing for the malaria parasite. Many people mistakenly view this sort of change as an example of evolution in action—because a mutation in DNA has made people better adapted to their environment. But if microbes really did turn into mankind—which is what evolution teaches—this would require the addition of new DNA information to [More]

In 1978, a team led by Mary Leakey discovered a series of footprints in Tanzania. These are known as the Laetoli footprints. According to many researchers, these footprints are identical to those made by humans. Paleoanthropologist, Donald Johanson stated, ‘Make no mistake about it, they are like modern human footprints’. Why is it, then, that most scientists reject the idea that humans made these footprints? To understand this odd situation, it’s important to realize that evolutionists think that the footprints were made in mud 3.6 million years ago. Therefore, according to such evolutionary ideas, humans weren’t around then, so the [More]

In nature documentaries and science text books, one often hears about creatures that arrived at their body plan very early in evolutionary history and have not made any real changes since that time, supposedly millions of years ago. These are called ‘living fossils’—like the coelacanth and the Wollemi pine. This phenomenon is known as stasis, things staying pretty much the same. And it turns out that pretty much every animal in the entire fossil record appears suddenly and shows this same history of stasis. This was not predicted by evolution! A more recent and radical theory called “Punctuated Equilibrium” recognises [More]
