Sermons on evolution

Behemoth

We consider (behold) Behemoth. Here God directs us to a great creature that contains important lessons for us in a world of suffering and circumstances beyond our control. May we gain wisdom as we hear from God.

God’s Care for His Creatures

God demonstrates his understanding and power over the animals that man could never possess. If God can so manage the animal world, certainly he has the understanding and wisdom to manage the world of men. In this message Pastor Tim deals with the common objection to God’s care of his creation. Evolution is said to provide the mechanism to explain the origin and development of species all around us. It is important to understand this false doctrine and how it…

God’s Work of Forming and Filling Part 2

In this talk we explore the amazing design of the many creatures God created. Every single person has a design intuition when we consider living things that fill the earth. We consider this, why people fight against this intuition, and how we must respond.

The First Day and the Age of the Earth

What happened on the first day of creation? When did this happen? And why does it matter so much? In this sermon, we get into the first few verses of Genesis 1 and see that these opening phrases are instrumental to a rock-solid faith in Christ’s call to be a disciple.

Today, the evidence is even more against evolution than it was in Darwin’s day. As we consider the evidence, again we’re amazed at the truthfulness and trustworthiness of Scripture!

Genesis and Modern Biology

The following are the images mentioned in the sermon. Fig. 1. Darwin’s first tree of life from his notes in 1837. Fig. 2. Modern day drawing of Darwin’s tree of life.

Why Genesis Is Important

With such a hotly debated topic as origins there certainly are many different approaches to the first book found in the Scriptures. In this sermon, we briefly review the different approaches to reconciling science and Scripture and then discuss five reasons why affirming biblical origins is important.

Evolution and the Bible

Is it even conceivable to believe in a literal six day creation just thousands of years ago rather than millions of years ago? How can we reconcile Genesis with what we’re told is a scientific consensus on an old earth and evolutionary progress. What we see is that the Bible tells us of that the Creator God made this earth just thousands of years ago by the word of his power and he promises to do the same in the…
