The vast majority of scientists are atheists, but they would prefer to call themselves humanists. These scientists use evolution as a means to excise God from society and actually teach evolution as fact in schools or colleges.
There is another group of people who are known as theistic evolutionists who say that God used evolution as a method of creation. Evolution and creation are two different ideals altogether and it is inconceivable how they can accept two opposite views at the same time. This goes totally against what God himself said in Exodus 20:11:
For in six days the Lord made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and everything in them; then he rested on the seventh day.”
Then there is another group who believes in the gap theory. That is there is something missing between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2, and that Genesis 2 is really a re-creation and not the original creation mentioned in Genesis 1. What these two latter groups have sought to do is fit evolution into the bible to somehow agree with human science.
Christians must also be aware of other groups that are anti-Christian and publish magazines and other material that is blasphemous and heretical at best. Young people are the most vulnerable to this kind of teaching and we must guide them and teach them the truth about God and the bible.
Evolution is Not Fact
The methods scientists use to support evolution is not verifiable nor factual. There are certain laws that evolution violates, but this does not matter to them because evolution is all about science, and creation is not science. But creation supports these laws and is the only viable method of how life originated.
Two Kinds of Evolution
There are two types of evolution – micro and macro.
Micro-evolution is change within a species and mutation and natural selection plays a role. So no-one disputes the fact that cats descended from one original type of cat. But what the evolutionists promote is macro-evolution, i.e. change beyond the limits of the species to create another different species altogether. Put another way, cats came from another type of creature, and all this happened by itself, with no intelligence behind it. But the thing is, there is absolutely no proof for this type of evolution and even some scientists dispute it, not only bible believers.
As we go along we will see how evolution is more of a belief system and there is more proof for an intelligent designer more than there is for evolution.
