Why is creation (as opposed to evolution) so important
today and is under such attack?
Because without the reality of Genesis 1:1--
In the beginning God created the heavens and the
earth
there is no redemption, no Revelation 21:1--
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the
first heaven and the first earth pass away.
Although I was a Christian from my early teen years,
through virtually all of my formal education--four years of high school,
undergraduate studies at Duke University and a Ph.D. in solid state physics
from American University--I never encountered creation as a plausible
explanation for nature. I was working as a research scientist at a
government laboratory when I heard a creationist for the first time, and
that evening transformed my life.
Since that time I have spent over 30 years studying
and teaching on creation. A proper understanding of creation is a solid
foundation on which to build. I believe that the Bible cannot be properly
understood without a belief in and a knowledge of creation, particularly as
laid out in Genesis 1-11.
This seminar concentrates on exploring these first eleven chapters of Genesis and
follows the outline given in the creation course I taught at
Daystar University, Nairobi, Kenya.
The goal of this seminar is to have the Bible come
alive. The topics covered include:
- Worldviews: explaining and contrasting the
creationist and evolutionary worldviews
- Science: definition; Biblical perspective; models
vs. theories
- The Cosmos
- The Creation Account
- The Flood
- History of Evolution
- The Age of the Earth
- Dinosaurs
It is suitable for all adults, high school and junior high
students. Click here to
