I have friends and mentors on both sides of the Christian debate concerning the age of the earth (Old Earth Creationists/Young Earth Creationists).

A Case for Creation 101: The Fall and The Problem of Evil
As an atheist my argument against God was that the universe seemed so cruel and unjust. But how had I got this idea of just and unjust? A man does not call a line crooked unless he has some idea of a straight line. What was I comparing this universe with when I called it… Continue Reading
Case for Creation 101: The Effects of the Fall
Last week we looked at Genesis chapter three and asked the question: Does a spiritual world exist?

A Case for Creation 101: God’s Nature – The Trinity
A misunderstanding that many people have about Christianity, especially those in other religions such as Islam, is the concept of the Trinity. Christians are often accused of “poly-theism” (worshipping multiple gods). However, this is not what Christianity teaches about the Trinity. As we study through Genesis you will notice times where God uses the plural… Continue Reading
