Many in the church have been taught the gap theory, that there is a gap spanning millions of years between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. But there are huge theological problems with this idea that most people have not been taught as part of this compromise to insert deep time into the Genesis account.

Creationists often point out the circularity and non-falsifiability of evolutionary theory: all potential finds can be explained (or at least accommodated) by the Darwinian paradigm. This illustrates the fact that Darwinism is not empirical science, but rather a philosophical starting point that is being assumed from the outset, and from which all available data are always interpreted.

In his History of the Inductive Sciences, William Whewell describes Sir David Brewster as ‘the Johannes Kepler of Optics’. Though the world today is largely ignorant of Brewster’s contribution to our wellbeing, he received a greater degree of recognition in his lifetime than almost any other physicist before or since.

Many students reject Christianity by university, but increasing numbers retain their faith. We reveal the highly effective tips that made the difference.

Evolutionary theory talks about multiple Ice Ages. How do they explain it? What evidence is there for an Ice Age, and why does the Flood provide a better explanation?

Were the events in Genesis actually historical? Where can we look for clues on how to interpret Genesis?

“I would like to present a balanced view to our visitors.” As a Bible-believing creationist this will be tricky, especially concerning your relationship with those who are employing you. With a public commercial audience, it would not be a good idea to criticise evolution/millions of years and push creationist views.

Even if you scrupulously pre-screen every game, documentary, movie, and book your children consume, evolution will sneak in somewhere, and the best thing you can do is make sure your children are prepared with good creation information, and more importantly, that they know that they can come to you with questions.

Skeptics claim Christians can’t do real science because of their faith and some believers say we don’t need science, just faith. So, do we believe 6-day creation because of science or because of the Bible?

Honeybees do not have the benefit of a university education, yet they perform the multiple, complex functions needed to produce honey, and handle complex organic chemistry with ease. Such complexity does not arrive by fortunate happenstance. Honeybees operate using pre-installed programs that only work if all the elements are in place from the word ‘go!’

If the whole Earth were covered by a worldwide Flood, there would have been no place for freshwater to survive. This seems like a huge problem until you examine the possibilities. First, many fish species can adjust to both fresh and saltwater conditions, even if this is not their preferred environment. Second, many species could have easily lost the ability to live in one environment over time. Third, there are multiple ways to preserve freshwater pools and lenses during the worldwide Flood. In the end, this is not a problem at all. Freshwater and saltwater fishes could easily survive this year-long watery catastrophe.

Preserved in amber, the bee is dated at 100 million years old on the evolutionary timeline. The lack of great morphological change supports the biblical creation model in which bees were created only about 6,000 years ago. Ironically, the way in which this bee was fossilized may also point to a massive flood.

Debate rages about whether there is ‘design’ in nature, or if the teaching of intelligent design is even ‘science’. However, the best robotics engineers have yet to design a navigation program as good as a bee’s and run it on a chip with the energy efficiency of a bee’s brain. So it’s reasonable to believe that the honeybee was designed by a Master Programmer whose intelligence is beyond our own.

We discuss the value of applying the mountains of creation evidence to your walk with Christ. Guidelines and some things to think about for developing a solid, unshakable faith.

I want my students to be able to catch this vision as I did, to be critical thinkers and able to grasp the significance of this world and their place in it. ‘The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge … My son, eat honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, is sweet to your palate; so shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul’.

Among the wonders of God’s creation, the honeybee provides some startling evidence against evolution, and for design and purpose by the Creator.
