Scripture On Creation podcast

Creationists often remark that one of the reasons evolutionists choose to believe in evolution is that it relieves them from a feeling of accountability to their Creator.  In this episode, Dr. Scripture seeks to determine if the Bible concurs with that idea.

This Psalm which acknowledges that God created the eye and ear, laments the actions of the wicked.  However, though the activity of the wicked causes the writer's anxious thoughts to multiply, when he ponders the promises of God he is consoled.  A good pattern for us all to follow!

This short Psalm addresses the Creator, praising Him for His control over His creation.  The Psalmist also presents a contrast between the turmoil of the churning seas--a symbol of the nations, and the majesty of the Lord.

The Psalmist acknowledges the faithfulness of the Creator as he joyfully sings and praises the Lord for His works in creation.  In contrast some NASA scientists are claiming to have discovered evidence that MAY IMPLY the existence of a parallel universe that runs backward.  About such speculators the Psalmist says, "they are senseless . . . and stupid."  His words--not mine.

This sequel to the last program, "Which came 1st, the chicken or the egg? - And related questions," discusses claims made by an evolutionist that scientists will soon be able to reverse-engineer a dinosaur like animal from a chicken--a dinochicken.  Of course, the evolutionary assumption is dinosaurs came BEFORE chickens, the opposite of what the creation account of Genesis 1 tells us.

A person's answer to the question indicates their mindset concerning origins. With that in mind, Dr. Scripture received questions he considered were all related to the chicken or egg question: how are Adam and Eve related to cavemen; did God create viruses; will scientists be able to reverse engineer a dinosaur from a chicken?  He discusses his answers in this program.

The frailty of Man and what could lead to the futility of life is presented to the "Everlasting Creator" in the later portion of Moses' prayer.  The solution to the vanity of life?--fellowship with one's Creator and Savior.  Moses also asks for encouragement in this life's pursuits as well.

In this prayer of Moses he addresses the Lord as Creator.  In it Moses describes the vast difference between God's transcendence and Man's transience.  This Psalm is referred to by 3 New Testament writers, and phrases from this well known Psalm are frequently quoted by God's people today.

These two Psalms were written during the Babylonian captivity.  The temple, Jerusalem and God's people are all downtrodden.  The Psalmists recall the Creator's power and plead that He restore His place, His people and His name to its proper exalted position in the world.

In this prayer which was also set to music, David praises the Creator for His common grace bestowed on all who dwell in the earth.  He also alludes to the fact that the signs evident in creation cause everyone, everywhere to be in awe.
