Questions for Evolutionists

by Dr. Kent Hovind

The test of any theory is whether or not it provides answers to basic questions. Some well-meaning but misguided people think evolution is a reasonable theory to explain man’s questions about the universe. Evolution is not a good theory—it is just a pagan religion masquerading as science.

1. Where did the space for the universe come from?

2. Where did matter come from?

3. Where did the laws of the universe come from (gravity, inertia, etc.)?

4. How did matter get so perfectly organized?

5. Where did the energy come from to do all the organizing?

6. When, where, why, and how did life come from dead matter?

7. When, where, why, and how did life learn to reproduce itself?

8. With what did the first cell capable of sexual reproduction reproduce?

9. Why would any plant or animal want to reproduce more of its kind since this would only make more mouths to feed and decrease the chances of survival? (Does the individual have a drive to survive, or the species? How do you explain this?)

10. How can mutations (recombining of the genetic code) create any new, improved varieties? (Recombining English letters will never produce Chinese books.)

11. Is it possible that similarities in design between different animals prove a common Creator instead of a common ancestor?

12. Natural selection only works with the genetic information available and tends only to keep a species stable. How would you explain the increasing complexity in the genetic code that must have occurred if evolution were true?

13. When, where, why, and how did: a) Single-celled plants become multicelled? (Where are the two- and threecelled intermediates?) b) Single-celled animals evolve? c) Fish change to amphibians? d) Amphibians change to reptiles? e) Reptiles change to birds? (The lungs, bones, eyes, reproductive organs, heart, method of locomotion, body covering, etc., are all very different!) How did the intermediate forms live?

14. When, where, why, how, and from what did: a) Whales evolve? b) Sea horses evolve? c) Bats evolve? d) Eyes evolve? e) Ears evolve? f) Hair, skin, feathers, scales, nails, claws, etc., evolve?

15. Which evolved first (how, and how long, did it work without the others)? a) The digestive system, the food to be digested, the appetite, the ability to find and eat the food, the digestive juices, or the body’s resistance to its own digestive juice (stomach, intestines, etc.)? b) The drive to reproduce or the ability to reproduce? c) The lungs, the mucus lining to protect them, the throat, or the perfect mixture of gases to be breathed into the lungs? d) DNA or RNA to carry the DNA message to cell parts? e) The termite or the flagella in its intestines that actually digest the cellulose? f) The plants or the insects that live on and pollinate the plants? g) The bones, ligaments, tendons, blood supply, or muscles to move the bones? h) The nervous system, repair system, or hormone system? i) The immune system or the need for it?

Is God Listenning to your Prayers?

"For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil." -1 Peter 3:12 / God is saying that He will not listen to vain prayers from people who love to sin and dives into iniquity. Evil represents the action of sinning without feeling guilty, for those who refuse to turn away from breaking his Moral Law. Repent and trust in Jesus.

The Gospel Truth

1 Corinthians 15:1-4, 10
(Program 1811, Airing on 3.22.09 & 3.29.09)

1. INTRODUCTION
   1. The word gospel means “good news”.
   2. It is bad news that makes the good news good.
   3. What is the bad news? Our sins. (1 Corinthians 15:3)
   4. We have tried to explain away sin, calling it a mistake, an error, a misjudgment, or weakness.
      1. Behaviorism says that man is just the sum total of his chemistry and environment.
      2. Evolutionism says that man is an accident, and there is no fixed standard of right or wrong; everything is changing or evolving.
      3. Humanism says that sin is the invention of the church to keep everyone in line.
   5. The Bible has much to say about our sin problem.

      2. Ezekiel 18:20
      3. Romans 5:12
      4. James 2:10
      5. Matthew 5:19
   6. We are not sinners because we sin; we sin because we’re sinners.
   7. We must deal with the bad news (the problem of sin) so that the gospel can be good news for us.
2. THE SOURCE OF THE GOSPEL (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
   1. The source of the gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
   2. How does the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus deal with the problem of our sin?
      1. Pays the penalty of sin. (Isaiah 53:6)
      2. Purges us from the pollution of sin.
      3. Prevails over the power of sin.
         1. Acts 2:23-24
         2. Romans 1:4
3. THE FORCE OF THE GOSPEL (1 Corinthians 15:1-2)
   1. The saving force (1 Corinthians 15:2)
      1. There’s no other way to be saved apart from the gospel.
      2. Romans 1:16
   2. The sanctifying force (1 Corinthians 15:2)
      1. God continues to work in us, making us more like the Lord Jesus.

Guilt?

Have you ever felt guilt for any reason? When you say or do what you shouldn't and feel this dissapoitnment of yourself right in the deepest place of your heart? We know we do wrong and we try to aliviate the action by talking to ourselves, but that makes it worse temporarily. What makes you feel that guilt or what is it that our sense of guilt activates, and how can we make it stop? Well, guilt is not an emotion, it's our conscious communicating us about something wrong that we say or do. People tend to ignore the wrong action to not feel the guilt. The Word say that "the Devine Law it's written in our hearts" meanning that we have a High Standard in which we automatically fall into. We cannot ignore the fact that we have a conscious, because it's there, not evolved from apes, but created by the Law Maker, our God. There are some actions we not do often. We don't notice when we say or do things which hurts others. We don't feel that guilt because we do it unconsciously, in ignorance or any other situation that applies to those 2. The way to make guilt go away is by grasping God forgiveness with repentance. We do need to accept our guilt and know that we should be sorry. Then we have to talk with love and kindness to the person we hurt, even if that person refuses to forgive you. Your sense of guilt will instantlly stop and you are free. When that person refuses to forgive you he/she will start the same process of guiltness until that time of forgiving.

If a person dies and you have no way to say I'm sorry to them, then ask God to take away that sense of guilt, because you know you are wrong and a sinner like everybody else and start doing the contrary of your sins. Turn away from darkness and walk to the light, Jesus is the light in the darkness of sin. Repent and put your trust in the Savior. Read the Bible daily and obey what it says. God bless.

"Love Dare" in my life's perspective

Everything that I will write in here it's how God has been working in my heart through this tool or I will say, book. I thank God for His word and the people who uses His word with knowledge to teach and help me grow throughout this journey. I have learned many things and I know He will show me many more things as I keep walking with Him with persistence. I pray to God for those who also need help in their marriage. There are many people, who are almost hanging their boxing gloves from bad choices in their relationship with their loved one and have no idea what to do, and there are others who projects their marriage as a perfectly fine relationship with their loved one, but when they are alone with each other it's a different story. I thought my marriage was the best until I start reading Love Dare, together with the Bible, let me tell you, I had no idea how bad I was doing.

We born with a conscious and we use it continuously in every decision we make. Most of the time, by my experiences, I have done many things in my marriage that I though it was right, but for my wife was totally not right at all. I overlooked many signs that was telling me to stop abusing other priorities instead of be present for the important ones. See, we born not knowing anything, we start from zero, same as marriage, we born in a new relationship with someone new in our lives and we grow together in a fantasy that everything is possible and we can make it with no problems and no difficulties and the reality is that we fall in our own selfishness. At this point we find 2 doors, one goes to live the way I want and the other goes to establish a healthy relationship with your loved one. This is how love can come to be your own decision and it can rule your house, not only with the wife or husband, but with the rest of the family.

We all want an easy way to do things, but the easy things can be unsatisfactory, I am talking about not confronting the problem and turning away from it. Think about an army's front line, they are prepared for battle, trained to not turn back and to defend their values. They will do their best to push forward to conclude with their objective. Are you prepared and looking forward to manage the problems in your marriage. Are you conscious that you have to change some things in your life like, priorities, as an example? In our house, as man and woman, have to be ready for the battle. We will have many problems like economic, work related, stress, and many, many...many more. I pray that you can have time with your family to watch the movie Fireproof and read Love Dare after. I say to watch the movie first so you can have an understanding of the book. They will show you real life problems and then how it ends when we do things in love. The book have steps to help us understand love. Please, take the time to do it and make sure you don't stop following those steps, because if you do stop, you will not have the benefits of it, and like war, will fall back. Be proud of what you have and fight for it.

“Love is not a fight, but is something worth fighting for”. - Warren Barfield

1 Corinthians 13:1-13
1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,[a] but have not love, it profits me nothing.
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.
9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Hell's Best Kept Secret

Pastor Ray Comfort • Way of the Master.com • 50 min.
Romans 3:19

Brief Sermon Overview:

Why do 80-90% of those making a decision for Christ fall away from the faith? What is the principle that Spurgeon, Wesley, Whitefield, etc., used to reach the lost? Why has the Church neglected it? Don't let anything stop you from listening to this incredible teaching.

Thanking the Lord

It is a blessing that the Lord is working with my family and giving them the chance to be saved. I thank Him for His mercy to all of us. I used to say "I cannot believe that I converted to be one of those annoying and fanatic Hallelujahs." That was when I first met Christ. Now I say that I am more than joyful to be one of them and I am so proud to be God's child, because I know for a fact that He love me and His is righteous. I thought that real Christians were there to judge humanity, I was totally wrong, we are judged already by Him. He wrote His Law in our hearts and by comparing it with what the Bible say it matches perfectly. Why should I destroy my body by drinking or using drugs, that is a slow process of committing suicide. Why blaspheming His holy name, hate others, lie, steal, dishonor my parents, coveting...Why do I want money, lust, cars, evolution, images, earth, etc to be my god? God promised provision and what better provision than salvation. A miracle like no other. Judgment is coming soon and we cannot play like there is no heaven and hell. People don't want to believe in that because they know for sure that by God's standard they will be guilty and will end up in hell. They only want to listen what they want, like I used to be. By believing in Buddha, Allah, Yoga, Mother Earth, New Age, Jehovah Witness, or any sect or religion will not change the reality of God, there is a Judgment Day and that day will be very hard for those who thought that God was a fake or for those who professed to be Christians and lived for the world(“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven." Mat 7:21). I pray to God for those who need His mercy, for those who won't accept the truth.

I did not accepted Jesus to be like any Christian celebrity, or to have a lifestyle religion or sect, or just to impress others with changes in my life or believe that I am perfect, or be better than anyone, no, but to have a relation that I never had with anyone. No one in this life can hold death, or can give life. No one can promise anything to anyone and fulfill it. No one can love, have compassion, be righteous and have mercy like Him. No one is good enough, no but one, only God is good.

Please, I beg you to analyze yourself by reading The Commandments and understand the grace of God. We lie, steal, blaspheme His holy name, we are adulterous, etc. That is our nature as sinners, but Jesus paid the price for you and me 2009 years ago on the cross so we don't have to do it. He ask from us to repent (Turn from our sins) and trust Him (have faith, follow Him), like if you trust in an airplane pilot or a parachute. Read the Bible daily and know this for a fact, God will never fail you, ever.

Don't think about it, do it quick, maybe the next hour your heart will stop forever. Remember this: 140,000 people die daily around the world.

God bless.
