In Job 38, verses 8-11 seem to refer to God's creative work on Days 2 and 3. From verse 12 through 30 then, He sites phenomena we know about but can hardly explain--the point being He, the Creator, DOES understand it all.Av Scripture On Creation

In Job chapter 38:4-6 the Creator reveals His design for the planet Earth. In Job 38:7 is the only clue in Scripture about WHEN the angels were created. Verses 8-11 relate to days 2 and 3 of creation.Av Scripture On Creation

Dr. Menton explains the wonders of the created eye and the meaning of the BIBLICAL term "apple of the eye."Av Scripture On Creation

A few years ago the "Creation Community" lost a great spokesman, Dr. David Menton. Professor for decades in Washington University (St. Louis) Medical School, and part of Answers In Genesis, his expertise in biological systems is greatly missed. Dr. Scripture interviewed Dr. Menton in 2019; what we discussed is still totally relevant.…

We've come to chapter 38; the point at which the Creator Himself enters the "debate." He speaks to Job in a whirlwind--the sense being the Lord is not going to be gentle. In verses 4-6 God describes the design of the earth.Av Scripture On Creation

What's beyond space; where is the flaming sword that guarded Eden; what will we do forever in heaven? Dr. Scripture addresses these and other questions.Av Scripture On Creation

Dr. Scripture spoke about creation to middle schoolers at Camp Horizon in central Florida; they had LOTS of questions. Related to Job 38:7, many of the questions were about angels. In this program we address them.Av Scripture On Creation

Starting in chapter 32, a "young" man named Elihu enters the discussion. His comments allude to the idea that Job and his colleagues lived much longer lives than we do today. Elihu also reveals an understanding of Gen 2:7.Av Scripture On Creation

Cavemen and human rights; discovered and socially applied in just our modern era? In Job chapters 30 and 31 these ideas are discussed by Job as he laments his condition.Av Scripture On Creation

In Job 28, Job describes the pursuit of wealth and points out that wisdom should be pursued to an even greater extent. However, Job laments, wisdom cannot be found by Man. Such a pessimistic conclusion is the result of his intense suffering. Yet he proclaims, "the fear of the Lord that is wisdom."Av Scripture On Creation

In Job chapters 27 and 28, Job laments the suffering the Almighty is putting him through, but he refuses to curse God or accuse Him of wrongdoing. Job also refuses to confess to wrongdoing that he did not commit.Av Scripture On Creation

Mark describes the soft unfossilized tissue found in dinosaur bones and the significance of these kinds of discoveries for the claims evolutionary theory makes concerning their age.Av Scripture On Creation

Mark Armitage has published articles describing and showing electron micrographs of unfossilized tissue in dinosaur remains. In part 1 of this interview his background and an initial description of his findings are presented.Av Scripture On Creation

Most people are familiar with the 10 Commandments of Exodus 20 (even if they don't know what they are). There is also an interesting possibility that there are 10 Commandments in the creation account of Genesis chapter 1.Av Scripture On Creation

More comparisons are made between Job's discourse and Paul's "Mars Hill" sermon. One curious aspect of Paul's message is he seems to share only part of the gospel. In these passages both Job and Paul focus on the need to fear God.Av Scripture On Creation

Paul's sermon on Mars Hill in Acts 17 has several similarities to Job's discourse in Job 26. Some comparisons and contrasts are discussed; the identity of God as Creator is key.Av Scripture On Creation

Romans 5:12 indicates that death entered the world because of Adam's sin. However, the meaning or "kind" of death that entered the world does not have a simple answer.Av Scripture On Creation

After the sweeping description of the mighty power and work of the Almighty in Job 26: 5-13, Job points out "these are the FRINGES of His ways!" All we may comprehend about the Creator is like seeing an eclipse of the sun.Av Scripture On Creation

Job 26 presents a sweeping description of the awesome (that's the angelic term) Creator's work in the universe. Hanging Earth in space, controlling the weather and the rise and fall of nations, and more.Av Scripture On Creation

There's a 12 chapter "gap" after Job 13 to the next passage related to creation--but what a passage it is. Job 26 contains one of the "greatest" passages describing the Creator in all Scripture. AND, Scripture On Creation has just overhauled the website, check it out!Av Scripture On Creation

Radiometric dating is widely used to establish the age of various artifacts. Carbon 14 is used to assess the age of artifacts assumed to be in the range of 50,000 years or less. Logical and empirical grounds challenging the "standard" interpretation of C14 dating is discussed.Av Scripture On Creation

A key issue related to the difference between believing in an "old earth" or "young earth" is one's opinion about the interpretations of radiometric dating. Carbon 14 dating is a key technique used to date artifacts. Factors involved in Carbon 14 dating are discussed. This and next weeks programs were originally broadcast on May 9 and 16, 2023.…

Solomon the wisest person of his time (1st Kings 4:29-34) is described as a naturalist in verse 33. Might he have believed in evolution?Av Scripture On Creation

He is Risen! The doctrine of the resurrection (Christ's and ours) is essential for salvation. Although the doctrine of creation is not, an improper understanding of the meaning of the "creation passages" can lead to a crisis of faith and doubts about the gospel itself.Av Scripture On Creation

The inspirational thoughts of Psalm have brought glory to the Creator for millenia. They have also inspired modern day hymn writers to declare the Creator's glory--and grace, just as David marveled, "what is Man that Thou dost take thought of him?" The beloved, How Great Thou Art, and lesser known, How Can It Be are two such hymns.…

Job 13:15 is not about creation, but it is perhaps the keynote verse revealing Job's faith in his Creator. This profound statement is discussed in the context of when we don't understand what and/or why the Lord does what He does sometimes.Av Scripture On Creation

In Job 12:10, Job makes the point that the lives of every living creature are in God's hands. For the believer that's a comforting thought, for the person who rebels against or rejects God's control of their life, it is disturbing.Av Scripture On Creation

Job says we should learn from the animals, Job 12:7-8. We consider the snake, butterflies, poison frogs and flounder; they all point to the wisdom of the Creator.Av Scripture On Creation

A rebroadcast from 10 years ago. A couple questions from listeners are discussed. What does Dr. Scripture think of a newly discovered whale dated to be 12 million years old, and are there genes that greatly increase your chances to live to be 100.Av Scripture On Creation

Many passages in God's Word include glorifying descriptions of Him. In this program we look at several passages that specifically describe the Lord's glory by referring to His identity as Creator.Av Scripture On Creation

Newly discovered RNAs form a whole new category of the versatile biomolecule RNA. These "new" RNAs are tiny relative to the RNAs already characterized. Nicknamed, miRNA, siRNA and piwiRNA, they are involved in regulating a host of cellular functions and even pass on hereditary traits.Av Scripture On Creation

New research has expanded our understanding of the function of DNA that once was thought to be "junk DNA." Newly discovered RNA molecules are involved in the regulation of the cell in ways we never could have imagined.Av Scripture On Creation

In Job 12:7-8 Job advises us to learn from the birds and fish. There are many references in the Bible which encourage humans to learn from the animals God created. We consider many of these creatures' qualities and what we should learn from them.Av Scripture On Creation

Believers likely will quickly respond, "yes," but can you explain why Jesus being born of a virgin is important? The question is discussed in this program relevant to our celebration of Christmas.Av Scripture On Creation

Although skepticism is mounting in the evolutionary community about Darwinism's ability to explain how evolution happens, evolution as the cause for all diversity of life is still adamantly believed by large numbers of scientists, and very unfortunately, also by many educators in Christian colleges.Av Scripture On Creation

The state of Darwinism today is described further. Evidence from the disciplines of genetics and molecular biology casts doubts on natural selection's ability to cause evolution. This is a reprisal of the same phenomenon which occurred several decades ago in the field of paleontology.Av Scripture On Creation

You don't hear about it in the mainstream media or various "science shows," however, large numbers of scientists are skeptical that Darwin's foundational mechanism for evolutionary change-natural selection-explains how evolution happens.Av Scripture On Creation

It's not just in the movies that we can find an obsession with alien life from outer space. The field of astronomy seems focused on it too. The latest data from the Web Space Telescope is discussed in this program.Av Scripture On Creation

Bildad makes a "telling" remark Job 8:8-9, about the short lifespans of their day; a remarkable statement since Job certainly lived well over 200 years, perhaps even 300 years. The indication being, their ancestors lived much longer lives, confirming the genealogical records of Genesis. photo by George Desipris…

A mutation that results in dwarfism also prevents cancer and diabetes, evidence for evolution by means of natural selection. However, though it can be construed as and example of "survival of the fittest," it doesn't solve evolution's need for novel genetic information producing new abilities.Av Scripture On Creation

Shaddai, the Almighty, is a name used to identify the Lord as Creator in Job. It also is used when talking about God as the Judge of His creation. Shaddai made the world, and Man, He has the right to judge the world, and in particular, Man.Av Scripture On Creation
