Why are monkeys and gorillas so similar to humans? Does this support evolution like evolutionists say it does? The theory of evolution tells us that humans have evolved from a common ancestor of primates – such as gorillas, monkeys and orangutans – over the course of several millions years. Almost everyone has been exposed to this type of propaganda in school textbooks, public media and visits to zoos and museums; all of which are adorned with evolutionary half-truths about our origins. Who can forget those famous images, cleverly crafted without any anatomical proof, showing an ape going through the different […]

(What does ’Twas the Night Before Christmas mean to you? Leave a comment down below.) Clement Clarke Moore (1779-1863) wrote the poem “’Twas the Night Before Christmas” in 1822. It is a tradition in many American families to read the poem every Christmas Eve. Here is the familiar beginning portion of it… “‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions […]

(Scroll down to leave a comment on your experience hiding from God) When we read the account of the horrific fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, we may not give the proper attention to the exchange between God and Adam. “The man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” He answered, “I heard you in the […]

In Genesis Chapter 5, something bizarre is happening. This chapter is dedicated to preserving the record of the generations of Adam, so that there would be an accurate record of the promised Seed; the lineage of our savior, Jesus Christ. It also indicates that man lived long ages approaching a thousand years and, of course, this is something unheard of today. There is a pattern established where we see the major patriarchs carrying the promised Seed through Noah’s lineage. Genesis 5:3-5 states: “And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his […]

The dictionary’s definition of complacent is “to be contented to a fault; self-satisfied and unconcerned, especially when accompanied by unawareness of actual dangers or deficiencies.” Sadly this describes far too many in the church today. They have grown so comfortable with their spiritual standing that they have become complacent, to the point where they are living out a Christless Christianity. Complacency vs. content Complacency is never good; contentment is another thing altogether. The Holy Spirit inspired the apostle Paul to encourage us: “I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, […]

Does the Bible support the view of a “Pangea” single-continent at some time in history? An accepted theory in today’s scientific community is that, at one time in earth’s history, all of the continents formed one super continent. Alfred Wegener, a German geophysicist, theorized in 1912 that the earth’s continents could fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, and that they are currently drifting apart at very slow rate. He concluded that there were significant similarities in the geological features of the continents on either side of the Atlantic Ocean; specifically in plant fossils. This theory is called continental […]
