Dr. Jim Johnson will speak on biblical creation for the “Summer Nights at the Bridge” Wednesday night series at The Bridge Bible Fellowship of Reseda, California. Some think apologetics is limited to answering inquirers who ask about the Christian faith. Others think apologetics is a fancy word for defending the faith. But the Scriptures provide four very different purposes for how we learn and use creation evidences (and what the New Testament calls “many infallible proofs”) to affirm and promote our biblical faith. This presentation includes “4 C’s” of Genesis apologetics: corroborating facts presented in Scriptures; contradicting the false teachings (especially evolutionary myths) that pervade our world; clarifying confusing topics to those who are puzzled, confused, or just curious; and celebrating how creation displays the glorious creatorship of our Lord Jesus Christ. Illustrations include polar bears, fish, humans who lived with dinosaurs like Stegosaurus, answering fools (Proverbs 26:4-5), carbon-14, soft tissue in Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops bones, bait-and-switch and other faith-bashing scoffer tactics, and more.

Dr. Randy Guliuzza will speak on biblical creation at the Designed to Diversify Seminar at Independent Bible Church.
Psychological research shows that humans in every culture perceive designed features and naturally infer they had designers. If this is the case, then the persuasive power in life’s designs is an enormously underused gift from God in apologetic defenses. Design-based explanations of creature features given from an engineer’s perspective bring scientific clarity to apologetics discussions by demystifying fallacious Darwinian origins explanations. If you can properly identify the cause of an organism’s dramatic capacity to adapt—better yet, self-adjust— to different environments, you’re on your way to the most powerful argument against death and survival-driven naturalistic evolution. This strategy points to a beneficent intelligent Designer consistent with the God of the Bible. Read more »

Join us on Tuesday, October 11th – Saturday, October 15th for The Great Recital at the ICR Discovery Center in Dallas, Texas. Professor Tom Meyer and others will present the entire New Testament recited word for word from memory. The Old and New Testament provide us with numerous references to the Bible being spoken aloud to the believing community through public readings. According to the book of Deuteronomy (31:11-13) on the Sabbatical year, the Feast of Tabernacles was further celebrated by a public reading of God’s Word. The repetition of the Torah every seventh year would ideally cause the next generation of Israelites to fear God, thus producing a life of obedience and ensuring a continuation of the nation’s divine prosperity. In keeping with this ancient tradition, ICR is proud to present the entire New Testament recited word for word from memory during this year’s Feast of Tabernacles. Six Christians from all walks of life will gather at ICR’s world class Discovery Center to make history. Throughout church history, there hasn’t been a time that we know of where the entire New Testament was quoted dramatically from memory in one setting, until now. By visiting the event in person or watching online not only will you and yours be part of something very special, but you will be washed by the cleansing of God’s Word and inspired to also hide God’s Word in your heart.

Dr. Randy Guliuzza, Dr. Frank Sherwin and Dr. Tim Clarey will speak on biblical creation at the Unlocking the Mysteries of Genesis Creation Conference sponsored by Alpha Ministries and held at the Fourth Memorial Church in Spokane, Washington. Many Christians wrestle with the seeming disparity between faith and science. They want to believe the inerrancy of Scripture, but it’s difficult to reconcile their beliefs with what science texts teach. The Unlocking the Mysteries of Genesis Conference seeks to resolve this conflict by answering key questions about the design of living things, the age of the universe, and how scientific evidence lines up with the Bible.
