A limestone shale slab from the Green River Formation, USA, has incredibly ‘captured’ a mass of 257 fish swimming together in a school. Interestingly, it is clear to evolutionists that the fish school’s fossilization absolutely required a rapid process.

Ignoring the 100 million killed last century through the evolution-fueled ideologies of Hitler and Marx, Prof. Richard Dawkins has eagerly attacked all the ‘Abrahamic religions’, including Christianity, as intrinsically slaughter-prone. His message: only belief in an afterlife would make one capable of suicidal atrocities. But it was not secularism, but America’s Biblical heritage which made it, f...

Christ’s birth is one of the greatest events in all of history. Although the popular media and most educational institutions largely ridicule the biblical version of the Nativity, a fair-minded analysis paints a different picture. Foretold by Old Testament prophecies, supported by historical evidence, and logically feasible based on the existence of the God of the Bible, the Nativity is much more...

Whatever may have been the exact nature of this star at Christ’s birth, it did give perfect witness to its Creator, Christ. Therefore, key representatives of the world’s great Gentile nations came to fall down and worship the King of the Jews, knowing that one day every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ, the Creator and Redeemer, is Lord (Philippians 2:10,11).

A few people occasionally recalled the legendary Lost Squadron of 1942, but it was only in 1980 that anyone thought of a salvage mission. U.S. airplane dealer Patrick Epps told his friend, architect Richard Taylor, that the planes would be like new. “All we’d have to do is shovel the snow off the wings, fill them with gas, crank them up and fly them off into the sunset. Nothing to it.”

Jesus pre-existed creation, and never came into existence because He existed eternally. It was through Him that all created things came into existence. This entails a plurality in the Godhead, which is taught even from Genesis, and this required our Creator to add human nature to His divine nature.

It is clear that there is one overall reason why birds have always been able to fly, and why man’s attempts have taken off only with the invention of flying planes. What is it? The birds got off to a flying start at the time of their creation. Flight, like birds, could not, and did not, evolve. It was created intact in the beginning.

As we enjoy all the good things about Christmas, we also need to remember that the ‘reason for the season’ is that Jesus came to Earth to be born, to live, and to die for the sins of the world, and then to rise again to give new life to all who put their faith and trust in Him.

The story of the ‘Kallikak’ family supposedly went back to an ancestor code-named ‘Martin Kallikak’, who as a young man had a relationship with a “feebleminded barmaid” that resulted in the birth of Martin Jr. Later, Martin married a “worthy Puritan woman”, and their union produced many productive people. But alas, the damage had been done, because Martin Jr, a drunkard and worthless individual, h...

The respiratory system has many distinctive design features, which show forth the providence of God. Even as we study it scientifically, the knowledge we gain should generate continual thanksgiving, so that we might join the psalmist in praising God along with ‘everything that has breath’ (Psalms 150:6).

Even if other universes could exist, and even if the laws of physics and chemistry in every single other universe did permit abiogenesis, this would do nothing to explain the existence of life in this universe. Do evolutionists really think that the enormous difficulties in ‘goo-to-you’ evolution stories will vanish simply because they claim that other universes exist?

We are made up of 99.99999999% empty space, so how can humans, or anything else, be ‘seen’ or ‘felt’? When we see something, what we are detecting is the light (an electromagnetic wave) reflecting from the surface of the object.

Owl feather features have caught the attention of researchers in the dramatically-expanding field of biomimetics or bio-inspiration, whereby engineers copy biological design.

The price of succumbing to the lure of secular acceptability, at least in physics and astronomy, has been heavy. We have long warned that adopting the big bang into Christian thought is like bringing the wooden horse within the walls of Troy. The Enemy of souls is seeking to seduce believers into embracing a subtle deadly way of evading the authority of the Bible.

The pygmy possum is an ‘opportunistic non-seasonal hibernator’. Their average prolonged hibernation lasts 310 days, with one of creatures reaching 367 days. It’s worth exploring just how this does or does not add to the apologetic arguments about the feasibility of the Flood account. It’s not surprising that as far back as the classic The Genesis Flood creationist authors have been suggesting that...

Komodo Dragons have been known to follow wounded prey at a leisurely pace for weeks. It is only a matter of time before the creature collapses, too weak to fight, and is often eaten alive. Similarly and analogously, I believe there is a stealthy and powerful concept stalking the corridors of many of our Christian churches, schools, homes and minds.

The possibility of altering human genetics to create designer babies or to improve the human species has been in the realm of science fiction for decades. Well, the ‘future is here’. In October of 2019, Netflix released the first season of a new miniseries called Unnatural Selection. It focuses on recent advances in genome editing and the many moral and ethical dilemmas associated with it. As Chri...

The Reformers saw the doctrine of Transubstantion as heresy. But we have seen that the same charge applies to the doctrine of Theistic Evolution. We could well ask ourselves, as biblical creationists, the question: given similar circumstances as prevailed in England at the time, would we be prepared to resist, to the point of death, this long-age creation doctrine that pervades the Church today?

The remarkable dinosaur footprints discovered at Karoola Station in outback Queensland, Australia, provide dramatic evidence of the reality of Noah’s Flood. Further, they provide insight into the nature of the catastrophe and its effect on the animal life at the time. Understanding the effects of Noah’s Flood changes the way we look at the world and how we understand our place in it.

There is an errant concept of ‘creation with apparent age’. A hypothetical modern observer who travelled back in time to see Adam and Eve at the end of Day 6 might infer that they were 20-year-old adults, but in reality they were less than a day old. Similarly, the trees on Day 3 would be mature trees, and a time-traveling observer might infer that they were hundreds of years old. So the question...

There are several things we can learn from detectives like Colombo that we can apply to the enterprise of Christian apologetics in general, and creation apologetics in particular. The next time you’re in a discussion or debate with a skeptic, ask them The Big Question, and push for a real answer.

Before the use of hymnbooks in the 18th century, the main form of musical involvement by English congregations was to intone paraphrases of the Psalms. One Sunday, Isaac Watts opined that the way the Psalms were rendered lacked the dignity and beauty that he felt should characterize every part of Christian worship. His father challenged him to produce something better. In 1707, Watts published his...

The Denisovans are a fascinating subject. It is known from ancient DNA studies that the Denisovans interbred with ‘modern’ humans, and so by the biological species concept that makes them the same species, i.e., Homo sapiens. Hence, by logic the specimens in Homo erectus must also have been fully human, and part of the human kind.

Liligers, ligers, and other cat hybrids are testimony to the fact that all 39 extant cat species alive today (including the domestic house cat) likely came from one original feline/cat kind on board the Ark, which rapidly diversified soon after the Flood.

With so many areas for the church to deal with we need to ask ourselves, how do we make a difference? Where do we focus our efforts? Many Christians believe the creation/evolution issue to be a side issue, an unprofitable area on which to focus. To many it seems divisive, and has little relation to proclaiming the Gospel. Far from being a side issue, the creation/evolution debate is at the forefro...
