Young Christian Leaders' Alliance

Here is an example of one 14-year-old young lady who is doing what she can to spread the gospel!  Deborah lives in England and uses her knowledge of creation science to point people to Christ.  She starts out by asking, "Do you think of yourself as a good person?"  She can then talk to people about how Christ is their Creator, how they have violated His rules, and how they need His salvation.  Check it out the video (above) on Dr. Kent Hovind's website. 

Although Evolutionary scientists will assert that they have no biases or pre-existing ideas for their research, they are indeed biased towards a naturalistic worldview. Evolutionists believe that the origin of everything should be explained by natural means, apart from God. They are fitting their scientific theories to a prior view. On the other hand, many Christians believe the Bible simply because they have been taught it, and thus have the same kind of preexisting ideas.

How can we learn what the beginning truly was? It is important to note that the kind of science which puts men on the moon or explores a DNA genome is not the same as the "science" which attempts to explain where humans originated or how the universe was birthed.  Science is based on observation. Simply put, no one alive on Earth was there to observe how life began and continued through time. There are just some things pure science cannot tell us.  The key to finding truth on a past event is not setting aside our existing ideas, but finding an eyewitness account and testing it with logic and our current observations.

When we take our here-and-now observations and look at them through the Biblical Creation account, we come up with a consistent interpretation, but when we look at them through the Evolutionary view, we see a contradictory and unworkable interpretation.  

One example of this contradiction is that if Evolution were true, we would never be able to know it.  We would not be able to trust our brains if they are the result of millions of chance mutations, created in an unguided or Intelligence-deprived process.  What if the laws of logic were simply Evolutionary survival tools, but did not actually convey truth?  We could never find out, because to do so would be to assume logic to be true.  Also, the naturalist states that the laws of science have always been the same – and thus, he states that the universe must have formed in keeping with processes seen today.  However, the naturalist actually borrows from the Biblical system, because he assumes that the laws of science were established before the universe and everything in it began to form.  

In objectivity, the Biblical framework far exceeds the Evolutionary one in its ability to account for the evidence. God’s version of history is consistent, because He is its ultimate eyewitness! Just as in any historical research, we must allow the account of the One who observed the event to have precedence over ever-changing (and illogical) modern opinions. Ultimately, it is true that belief in Creation requires faith; but, belief in Evolution requires much more.

The theory of Evolution is based on a self-contradictory setof ideas. It depends biologically on two main features: natural selection (theidea that the best-adapted organisms will survive) and the existence of mutations(random changes of genetic structure, in reproduction). It is said that overmillions of years, mutations will gradually occur which will be beneficial toany given organism, giving it a competitive “edge” over others in its class.The trait will thus be passed on as that organism reproduces, eventuallybecoming the standard for the entire species.

However, the fact is that the process of natural selectionhas no inventive capacity, even in combination with mutations. Natural selectionwas created to modify existing systems to keep species as a whole alive, butnot to invent new systems or species. The reason is that in order for amutation (the “fuel” for natural selection) to create new information, it wouldhave to occur simultaneously with an enormous number of other mutations. Everyoperation of life known depends on a system with a number of inter-dependentcomponents, each of which must exist for the operation to occur.

Evolution proposes that sets of mutations did not come to besimultaneously, but were added one by one over many generations. Naturalselection would thus serve not to preserve organisms with elements of the newinformation, but to root out each new individual mutation as it occurred! Farfrom having a competitive edge, the organism or its close descendants which possessedthe mutation would be out-performed by the others around them, having expendedenergy for a useless cause.

There is nothing in Evolution to “see” which mutations couldbe useful in the future. The only goal is for the creature to survive; it mustwork with what it has. Even if it were possible for carriers of the mutatedinformation to keep from being selected against, it would be extremelyimprobable that all the mutations would finally add up to something useful inthe genetic code.

The only option we are left with is that each function oflife was formed with all the necessary components intact. Evolution clearlydoes not provide this answer. However, there is no reason why the creation oflife’s systems could not have been accomplished by a hyper-dimensionalIntelligence. The Evolutionary assumption that the universe and everything init are self-existing is not only unnecessary; it is irresponsible and opposedto rational scientific investigation.

The only way all the inter-dependent components of life’ssystems could have formed is if each were created with advance knowledge as towhat each component was meant for and how each would relate to the other. Dareanyone mention… God?
