Scripture On Creation podcast

What is the meaning of the word "day" in the Genesis creation account?  It actually has 3 different meanings.  How about the numerous references to "ancient times" or "forever?"  A study of the use of these various "time" words shows that many have quite flexible meanings--the key to interpreting them correctly is their context.

This week we celebrate 250 years as a nation.  The Founders of our nation assumed not only that there was a God, they understood He was the Creator.  This program considers the Declaration of Independence and other statements of Thomas Jefferson in particular.

This Psalm graphically contrasts the gods Man makes and God THE Maker of heaven and earth.  In response to idolatry, which at its core is Man making his god/s, the Lord God repeatedly in Scripture makes the point that He, the Creator, made Man.

The Creator humbles Himself (stoops if you will) to simply observe the heavens and the earth that He created, yet He cares for us more than we can know.  Hallelujah!

Dr. Scripture continues answering questions from a group of young people he spoke to at a conference.  These questions relate to the creation of animals and the cosmos.

Dr. Scripture answers a number of questions from a youth group: who created God, when did God create everything, when were angels created and more.  Most of the questions focused on God and Man.

The Psalmist begins with "Hallelujah!" and praises the Lord for all His works.  Those works include God's work in creation as well as His acts of righteousness and faithfulness. 

Although we thought we finished Psalm 104, Scott had a couple more questions related to verses 30 and 35.  We consider Psalm 104:30 and 35 in more detail in this final program on Psalm 104.

It's apparent that God intended a single man and a single woman to be mated for life, i.e. polygamy was not God's idea; but how about for all the other creatures? Photo credit PeopleUS.

This program continues Dr. Scripture's response to a student asking for evidence refuting evolution; in particular the millions of years of evolution claimed to have occurred by all evolutionists.

This program was first aired in 2010, but is still relevant today.  It's remarkable how strongly some evolutionists react to any challenge to their theory.  A student shares their experience in an English class.

This final program on Psalm 104 quickly reviews the first 26 verses then considers the last 9 verses.  The question, do animals have a spirit? (vs 29) is discussed, and the Lord's ongoing interaction with His creation is highlighted.

The later portions of Psalm 104 describe a number of the life forms God created.  The plants, animals and Man all live and to a great extent cooperate in the circle of life on earth.  The Psalmist then exclaims, "in wisdom You have made them all!"

We discuss what vss 6-9 refer to--the global flood or day 3 of creation.  Then we note the emphasis in the Psalm on the water so plentiful on earth--that quality that sets earth apart from any other planet--supporting life.

Psalm 104:1-9 describe the "works" of the Creator on days 1, 2 and 3 of creation.  There also seems to be an allusion to the Great Flood, but Psalm 104 more closely parallels Job 38's statement about day 3 than the global flood.

Psalm 103, a Psalm of David, compares the heavens to God's love for His people. It also introduces and exhorts all the works of the Lord to praise and glory their Maker.

The Big Bang is an explanation for the origin of the universe that denies that God had any involvement.  However, to make what we observe in the universe and what we assume the results of the Big Bang should be, Dark Matter and Dark Energy must be proposed.  This program discusses the "Dark Universe."  

Comets are beautiful and mysterious.  They come and go seemingly from nowhere.  However, in order to fit with the evolutionary explanation of the origin of our solar system, astronomers claim they come from Oort's cloud.  "We" just need to find it!

What do the orbits of the moon around the earth, the earth around the sun, and our solar system around the Milky Way have in common?  They are all in their corresponding Goldilocks zones.  A fantastic stroke of good fortune according to an evolutionary worldview.

Our telescopes continue to reveal an ever larger universe, but where does it end?  The Lord tells us in Jeremiah 31:37, we'll never find the edge.

In this prayer the Psalmist pours out his complaint to the Lord; however, in his suffering he finds solace in the fact that the Creator is eternal, and so are His children.  If our identity is truly in Christ, the Savior, Creator, we have an enduring hope.

This well known Psalm is often used in calls to worship and sung by children.  It's a Psalm of thanksgiving as even the title says, and it reminds of "Who made whom."

It is common for unbelievers to claim that the idea of creation, which the Bible teaches, is a reason for their rejection of the gospel.  Should someone who is trying to witness to an unbeliever therefore avoid any reference to creation?

Armitage's research disproves Schweitzer's claim that iron is responsible for the ultrapreservation of dinosaur soft tissues; opportunities for students in the Dinosaur Soft Tissue Research Institute (dstri) are also presented.

Dr. Armitage discusses the evidence that is cited by evolutionists concerning the effect of iron in dinosaur blood and tissue.
