Albert Mohler started a firestorm at the Ligonier Ministries 2010 National Conference when he lectured on “Why Does the Universe Look So Old?” Mohler connected the proponents of Theistic evolution and other old earth advocates with the denial of Biblical inerrancy among some evangelicals.

Science Verses Christianity, Part Last
Posted: September 11, 2009 in CreationTags: Answers in Genesis, Augustus H. Strong, Gleason Archer, Ken Ham, Millard Erickson, Tim Keller, Wayne Grudem
Tim Keller rejects the view of Richard Dawkins who “argues that you cannot be an intelligent scientific thinker and still hold religious beliefs.” But Keller believes the view of a six twenty-four-hour day creation is “fortunately…losing credibility with a growing number of scholars.” In both Dawkins’ and Keller’s view, science has undermined the interpretation of Scripture.

The first tenet of evolution that we discussed was the Eternality of Matter. Next, we will discuss Spontaneous Generation which states that the first life, the first cell sprung from non-life.

The leaders of New Atheism are Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and Daniel Dennett and with evangelistic fervor, the new atheists not only reject theism but have gone on the [...]
Is the Earth “Young” or “Old?”

THERE is a debate today among evangelicals concerning the age of earth. One view is more sympathetic to scientific evidence than the other. I think the reason for different conclusions about the age of the earth, is the inclusion of the so-called evidence from science into the hermeneutics of Genesis one and two. Both “Old [...]
