I was raised in the Church of Christ and accepted Christ at the age of 13. In Jr. high I began to see a conflict between what was taught in school verses what my Bible class teacher would tell me was true. Thankfully some of my Jr. High school teachers were Christians and would screen much evolutionary content. In college the true sustained assault began against my faith. My first geology professor told me “to forget about the fables that I learned in church since science and religion do not mix”. I slowly began to become indoctrinated by the naturalistic concepts of historical geology. My dad an awesome Bible scholar and elder in the church for 34 years was shocked at the new Worldview I began coming home with and scrambled to find answers to my questions regarding the six days of creation, the flood of Noah, and other aspects of our faith attacked by evolutionary naturalism. I had come to the correct assumption that either the Bible is completely correct as it claims to be or it is completely a fabrication of man and FALSE!. He spent long hours discussing all aspects in defense of the Bible that I had begun questioning. I told him many times he was not a scientist and did not understand the science behind the methods to date rocks. I slowly began to see the Bible to be true but tried to cram “billions of years” into every possible verse in Genesis chapter one in an attempt to reconcile the two apposing Worldviews. I even questioned the authenticity of the Bible as God’s word and had begun to question the concept of God and that he was possibly a construct of man’s imagination. My Dad gave me a book by John Clayton, but it too was from a theistic evolutionary viewpoint which is in conflict with scripture and the reason the Church is infected by many false teachers! My Dad gave me a book by Dr. Henry Morris called the “Genesis Flood” that changed my entire Worldview and it began a quest to reconcile true operational science with my faith rather than historical natural sciences (such as geology) man has fabricated to explain his origins. True falsifiable, testable, science is not in conflict with the Bible. True repeatable operational science can be verified via the Scientific Method and men do not have to choose between science and the Bible. Man does have to choose between the authority of the Bible and the historical pseudo-science of man, which is an attempt by sinful rebellious creatures to explain his origins by censoring the Creator God. Historical “science” is a philosophy and cannot be proven in the laboratory. Any attempt to reconcile these two apposing Worldviews is pure folly and will not gain these PhDs one iota of respect by the “scientific community”. They will continue to scoff at these weak minded men who have to have a god as a crutch. In fact Eugenia Scott a very well known atheist promotes the idea a getting a “man of the cloth” to speak in defense of evolution since in her words “A backward collar is worth 5 scientists when explaining evolution!”.
Men that believe in evolution through deep time do not believe in a universe created in 6 days, Adam and Eve, sin the cause of death, or the Great Flood. (Gen. 1-11) The have to believe that Jesus Christ the Creator God in the flesh is in the lineage of an APE whether directly or indirectly! I for one could not fathom standing before the Creator of the Cosmos expecting mercy and grace believing such heresy! Ex. 31 The Sabbath was a day set aside by the Creator because “I God created everything in six days!) This 4th commandment written by the very finger of God on stone was 2500 years after the creation of the world and a day was still a 24 hour day!)
Thank God my Dad loved me enough to take the time and effort to guide my path or I could have become an atheist. Worse yet I could have become a theistic evolutionist or other variation infecting the Body of Christ with a distorted Worldview causing others to stumble and loose their faith. Thankfully by the guidance of those that loved God’s word and believed the words to be holy and inspired I came full circle. I now believe every single word of Creator’s love letter to us from the VERY FIRST VERSE.

Since that time a fellow brother and I began a Christian Evidences Ministry in Longview, Texas, which included a local cable television program for 4 years. This close friend and myself had begun teaching and speaking when we could. Sadly we have been censored from teaching, in some instances, by the same people that say “it does not matter what one believes on this topic”…. BUT they continue to spread their false “interpretation” of scripture and Worldview. It meant everything to me and primarily my future eternal life!! Secular humanistic evolutionary concepts have invaded the Body and the Church (in general) has lost its salt and light. Just think how effective the Church could be if we stood in concert against these terrible concepts that devalue human life by saying it evolved by natural means or by guided along by a reduced god. Abortion and euthanasia which are related to the sanctity of life and comes into question when man believes he came from primordial slime by accident. II Peter 3 talks about the last days when men will deny the creation and the flood. Men today deny these historical events and some are leaders in our churches.
Firmly His!
