you can tell science to take a hike (where it contradicts the Scriptures); and, yes, limited evolution and our relationship to Jesus Christ can sit together, albeit in separate seats.
Just remember that science was made for man --- not man for science --- and you'll be alright.
Great advice, you can never go wrong when you rely on the Scriptures. Man and his theories are fine for earthly matters but nothing, absolutely nothing, ever supersedes God's Word. Trust in Him and His Word; if you can do that I can guarantee you that you will receive the peace of God the surpasses all understanding. Contrary to what you've heard, you and I don't need to know everything, everything we need to know, God has told us. Beyond that, everything else is superfluous.
Evolutionists will distract you with their science and other man-derived theories. Ultimately you need to remember this; man's ideas are in a constant state of change and flux, and evolution, like all other man-derived ideas, is no different. Over the last 150 years it's been under constant change, yet through it all the Word of God, and God Himself, have never changed. Stay anchored to the Rock and you'll never be led astray.
So when you hear things like:
There are really two big questions:
1. Why should I believe in Young-Earth Creationism? and
2. If I can no longer believe in Young-Earth Creationism, why should I still believe in Christianity?
Remember that neither question is even remotely big, what is big is what does God say? So if you want to understand Scripture, please don't look to science to give you answers to biblical questions. God has spoken, have faith and trust Him to be true and never ever put your trust in man and his theories, many of which are based on speculation and conjecture. If you do, you'll be disappointed every time. No, rely on the Holy Spirit to guide and direct your path to the Truth which is clearly written in God's Word.
The reason we sometimes can't fully understand the Bible isn't because there is something missing. No, it is because we haven't removed the dirt and film (secular thinking) covering our eyes and replaced it with spiritual thinking. Think of it like having 20/400 vision and instead of looking to man for assistance in seeing the spiritual truth of God's Word, you turn to the Holy Spirit instead. He will help you see and understand all that you
need to know, everything else is just a distraction from the Truth. Don't forgot what the Bible says about the crafty source of all those distractions.
Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made.
Don't be like the scribes and pharisees who were caught up in their own pride and unable to see and hear the truth when it was presented to them. Instead they became pawns of Satan.
John 8:44
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
All lies have their origin with Satan, evolution is no different.
May God bless you in your pursuit of the Truth.
PLease don't let me become atheist.
