Dear friends,
Now that the time has changed back to standard time, we can adjust to a new schedule, only to have it change again in a few months. Where is the sanity in this?
On Saturday, we made the trip to Broken Bow to visit the Bone Yard Creation Museum. I heartily recommend this as a very informational and educational place to experience. The exhibits and information shared will give you new insights into creation and provide ways to counter the evolution argument. Everything I saw pointed to the truth of the Bible and the Genesis record of God’s creation.
I have heard most of the arguments against a literal six-day creation, and I trust the Bible when it says God got it done in six days. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1). And in verse 31 of chapter one and verse one of chapter 2, it says, God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day… Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in their vast array.
The heavens attest to the truth of creation. Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of his hands, Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
Romans 1:20; “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.”
In Paul’s letter to the church at Colossae, we read these words concerning Jesus Christ: “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together” (Colossians 1:15-17).
Praise the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness” (Psalm 150:1-3).
In Him,
Pastor Jerry
