Is the Universe Billions of Years Old - Does It Really Matter
We live in a day when most people believe that the universe is 14.6 billion years old and the earth is 4 billion years old. In fact, a majority of Christians believe in billions of years, because they don’t know what to do with the “science”. Many of our theologians in churches and in seminaries also believe in billions of years or lean that way because they don’t think it really matters. But it does matter because it calls into question the authority of God’s word. Does the Bible give us any clues to the age of the earth?

Creation Evangelism - Who Did It Better?
In the Bible, there are two methods of evangelism. The apostle Peter evangelized the Jews of his day while the apostle Paul spread the gospel to the Greeks. Both required different starting points based on their foundation. This lecture describes the two methods and explains the state of the American culture today, and which of the evangelism methods is more applicable today. After viewing all of these lectures, this is your charge to evangelize the culture.

Mutations - Are They Really the Evolution Solution
Mutations are supposed to be the key driving engine for the theory of evolution. They are supposedly responsible for the small increases in genetic information that is responsible for molecules changing into mathematicians. However, according to evolutionists, if a mutation does not provide a survival advantage, it will not be passed on to the offspring. So any new mutation must provide an increase in information as well as an increase in function. In this lecture, we will look at several possibilities and demonstrate if evolution is the driving engine to evolutionary change, or whether the engine is running in reverse.

Starlight and TIme
Evolutionists will tell creationists that the problem of distant starlight destroys the theory of a young earth. However, those who hold on to the "big bang" have a similar problem called the "horizon problem". This lecture presents a cosmology model based on Einstein's general theory of relativity and the Bible that answers the critics.

Human Evolution - Making Monkeys Out of Man
According to evolutionists, man is the result of random chance mutations from a common single-cell ancestor in a primordial soup which evolved through primates and apes. They have desperately held onto this dogma, even in spite of extremely week evidence. In this lecture, we will look at some of the major claims (some of which have been outright lies) and the evidence (or lack of evidence) they actually have. We will also point out that the touted 2% difference in DNA between humans and chimps was deceptively false and is more like 15% different which poses a huge problem for evolutionists because there is simply not enough time to make up this difference in their evolutionary time frames. Tune in and we will see how the evolutionary bias has controlled the science and the media as we discover how scientists have made monkeys out of man.

Is Evolution a Better Religion Than the Bible is a Science?
The theory of Evolution does not fit the definition of "science" in that it is not testable, observable, repeatable and falsifiable. That makes it a religion based on secular, anti-God philosophies. Many of the leading evolutionary scientists have stated that evolution is a religion. On the other hand, the Bible never claims to be a scientific text book. However, whenever the Bible touches on scientific principles, it has never been proven wrong. In this lecture, we will discover if the theory of evolution is a better religion than the Bible is a science.

Where Did All the Languages Come From?
There are two interpretations of how all the languages came into being. There is the evolutionary model of language development and the Biblical model. For Christians, the answer is pretty simple – God confused the languages at the Tower of Babel. But for those that don’t believe the Bible, what is the evidence for it? Through science, we will see just how Genetics and DNA can help us trace the origin of languages to the original Table of Nations as recorded in Genesis chapter 10, and also determine migration patterns of people. It may even help us determine where Japheth, Shem and Ham may have settled after the flood.
But there are many other evidences. Cultural legends and ziggurats, that display many similar design techniques and architectural features around the world, give credibility to the original event at Babel. The symbols imbedded in the Chinese language also demonstrate the significance of the Creation Account, the Fall of Man, Noah's Flood and the Tower of Babel. So where did all the languages come from? Let’s go see what all the Babbling is about!

How Did the Animals Spread Throughout the Earth After the Flood?
We see similar species of animals and plants in different regions. For example, there are populations of Tapirs in rain forests of Central and South America as well as across the world in Malayan islands. These are called “Split Ranges”. From a Biblical perspective, this is evidence that animals migrated after Noah's flood, and in more than one direction. The secular science world does not have an answer to explain this animal migration pattern across the oceans.
There are only a few theories available that attempt to explain these split ranges. 1) Evolutionary Theory, 2) Plate Tectonics Theory, 3) Land Bridge Theory, and 4) Floating Raft Theory. This lecture will demonstrate that the evolutionary theory cannot adequately explain these split ranges. Using what we know from the Bible, as well as what we observe in our world, we will construct models that provide answers to this question of "How did the animals spread over all the earth after the flood?"

How Did People Live So Long In The Beginning
How do you respond to skeptics of the Bible who often ask, "How was it possible for the Biblical patriarchs to live to be over 900 years old?" The very idea of people living to be over 900 years old seems difficult to believe, not less explain. But the Bible says the early patriarchs lived that long. Did they really live that long or did God use a different measurement of time? If not, how did people live so long in the beginning?
When we look in the genealogies recorded in Genesis 5, 10 and 11, the Bible clearly teaches the early patriarchs often lived to be nearly 1,000 years old. The structure of the genealogies gives the father’s age when his son was born, and then the age that he died. We can use these genealogies to date the age of the earth. We will also look at several theories that may give us clues to how people lived so long and why that may have possibly changed.

Who Was Cain's Wife
Beginning in 1896, William Jennings Bryan emerged as a dominant force in the Democratic Party, when he delivered his Cross of Gold speech that favored a currency backed by both silver and gold, but was defeated in his bid to become U.S. president by William McKinley. Bryan lost his subsequent bids for the presidency in 1900 and 1908.
So you must be wondering what he has to do with Cain's wife.
Cain’s wife is the most sought after woman in history. Everyone is asking about her. Skeptics of the Bible have used Cain’s wife to discredit the book of Genesis as a true historical record. Most Christians cannot give an adequate explanation to this question.
William Jennings Bryan Didn’t Know. Do you?

Where Did All the Races Come From?
The Bible tells us that from one man, Adam, He made every nation of man (Acts 17:26), and that Adam named his wife Eve because she would become the mother of all the living (Genesis 3:20). From our previous lecture "Who was Cain's Wife?", we learned Cain’s wife was his sister, niece or a very close relative. If that was the case, then where did all the different races come from?
On November 24, 1859, Charles Darwin published his book On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection. The subtitle of the book was Or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. As history demonstrates, this book fueled the flames of racism in this country and across the world. Check out the sad story of evolution's shameful past and see how the truth of God's word is the only way to eliminate racism in this world.

Evidences for a Young Earth
Secular scientists fully accept a principal that was developed by a Scottish geologist, Charles Lyell, called the principal of uniformitarianism. This theory says that same slow geologic processes (such as erosion and sedimentation) and their current rates and magnitudes of change is all that is required to determine the age of the earth. It ignores catastrophic events. Therefore these slow gradual geological processes must have required millions of years to occur.
This lecture provides evidence that proves the earth cannot be millions of years old using the same principals. There are hundreds of physical processes that attempt to set limits on the age of the world. But more than 90% of these processes give an age less than billions of years.
I discuss only ten physical processes, out of the hundreds available and I demonstrate that the uniformitarian principal yields far younger results than what is required by evolutionists. The ages derived are not actual, but are maximum limits. The earth is far younger.

Jurassic Park - Cave Men, Knights, Dinosaurs and Dragons
In this lecture we’re going to see what historical evidence there is regarding whether dinosaurs and man lived together at the same time. We see descriptions of dinosaurs in Job chapter 40 and 41, so there must be evidence for them.
There are many interesting cave paintings, petroglyphs, bas reliefs, tapestries, and sculptures in early history that demonstrate that the artists of them fashioned long before the first fossils of dinosaurs were found. The images have very similar representations to the dinosaur fossils that we see today.
Find out what history has to say about the Dragons of old!

Jurassic Park - Did Man and Dinosaurs Live Together?
Evolutionists say that dinosaurs first evolved around 235 million years ago and that no humans ever lived with dinosaurs because they became extinct 65 million years ago – long before man evolved.
But what does the Bible say about man and dinosaurs? Did they live together or not? The word "dinosaur" is not found in the Bible, because it was not coined until 1841 by Richard Owen. But there are some key passages that describe animals that could only be some species of dinosaur.
Listen to this lecture and see what the Bible says about dinosaurs!

Dating Fossils and Rocks
The topic for this lecture is “Dating Fossils and Rocks”. Girls, this is not what your father would approve of. But even though we are all made up of carbon, we are not talking about this kind of carbon dating.
Radiometric dating - Does it prove the earth is billions of years old? Many Christians don’t know how to respond to this question. As a result, many have been led to believe that radiometric dating is the silver bullet of evolution...After all, how can science be wrong?
As a result they have re-evaluated what the Bible says about the creation account and have decided they have to reinterpret the word for “day” as meaning millions and billions of years. This means that the word’s of fallible man is more accurate than the words of an infallible God.
Let's see what the science really says and unveil some of the hidden secrets of the scientific community.

Digging Up the Facts on Fossils
Evolutionists will tell you that the geologic column represents a time line of when various animals lived over millions and billions of years. According to the Biblical model, the fossil remains of the animals we find in different rock layer is a result of their mobility and their ability to escape the rising floodwaters of Noah's flood. This lecture presents evidence that fossils are a result of rapid burial which took place rapidly.

The Stones Cry Out - Geological Evidence for the Flood
Many people say there is no evidence for a global flood that occurred as recorded in Genesis. However, there is actually much geological evidence that is clearly visible, such as transcontinental rock layers; evidence for sediments transported long distances; no erosional features between rock layers; rock layers that have been tightly bent with no evidence of cracking; cross bed sediments; coal formations; and rapid canyon erosion. These are evidences of massive sediment deposition in a relatively short period of time during the great flood of Noah.

The Problem with the Framework Hypothesis
This is the final compromising theory that has become popular by liberal theologians to fit millions of years intothe verses of scripture. Unfortunately, this is one of the most rapidly growing movements in Christian circles. Incidentally, Hank Hanegraaff, the Bible Answer Man, is actually a proponent of this theory. While I have gained much knowledge and have become to understand many passages of the Bible as a result of Hank's teaching, I differ with him on this matter.
The framework hypothesis is a non-literal, topical interpretation of the Biblical creation account in lieu of a literal, chronological interpretation. In other words it attempts to replace the straight forward, literal chronology of the 6 days of creation with a poetical framework.
This lecture will identify the many problems with the framework hypothesis and point you back to the truth of the Bible.

What is a Day?
Many Christians attempt to reconcile the billions of years of evolutionary science with the Biblical chronology of the creation account by reinterpreting what the definition of a "day" (Hebrew - "Yom") is. This reinterpretation of the definition of "day", as used in Genesis 1, is the root of the controversy between an old and a young age view of the earth.
Most early church fathers accepted the days of creation as ordinary days. The “non-literal” interpretation of “day” by many of todays pastors and church leaders is a result of extra-biblical influences (indoctrination from evolutionary scientists), not from the words of the Bible.
This lecture will explore the Hebrew definition of "day" as recorded within the proper context of Genesis chapter 1. We will see that the Bible says about what a day is.

The Problem with Progressive Creation
In order to attempt to harmonize millions of years of evolutionary theory with the real truth of God's word, men have invented different theories. One of these is the Day-Age theory or often called Progressive Creation. There are subtle differences between these two views of Day-Age and Progressive Creation, but they are so similar that I will treat them the same.
Progressive Creation is probably the theory that is being embraced the most right now in many seminaries, Christian colleges and churches. It is the belief that God created new forms of life gradually over long periods of time, where each creation day represents hundreds of millions of years.
In this lecture, we will see why this theory, just like many others, have real problems when it comes to upholding the true Word of God.

The Problem with the Gap Theory
Many people, and unfortunately many professing Christians, have bought into the argument that the world is billions of years old. They have trusted the scientists and the secular textbooks instead of the Bible. Therefore they have invented all kinds of theological interpretations that fit millions and billions of years into the Bible instead of taking the Bible as truth.
The Gap theory is one of those that conveniently tries to justify fitting millions and billions of years between the first two verses of the first chapter of Genesis.
This lecture will point out the various theological problems associated with this theory. Come along on the journey and "mind the gap".

Problems with Theistic Evolution
Many Christians have invented compromising theological interpretations to harmonize millions of years of evolutionary history with the Bible. That is because they do not have Biblically solid answers to the questions that evolution presents and probably have never considered the ramifications this.
Theistic Evolution is the view that God used the process of evolution to create the universe over billions of years and that the six days of creation, as described in the Bible, is either a myth or an allegory.
In this lecture, we will take a look at the problems associated with this theory and analyze the red flags that serve as warning signs of unintended consequences that undermine scripture. Along the way, we will refute the best evidence that proponents of this theory believe - whale evolution.

Noah's Ark - A Feasibility Study
Many skeptics of Christianity, and sadly many within the church, doubt the historicity of the Flood of Noah. Many would prefer to say it was only a local flood instead of a world wide catastrophe. After all, they say, "How did Noah get all the animals on the ark?", "How could he have built the ark to withstand a global flood?", "Were dinosaurs on the ark?" These and many more questions are answered in this first part of a two part lecture on Noah's Ark.
