Dr. Brian Thomas and Dr. Jake Hebert will speak on biblical creation at the Unlocking the Mysteries of Genesis Conference held at Lincoln Christian School in Lincoln, Nebraska. 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.

Dr. Frank Sherwin will speak on creation at Calvary Chapel Sierra Vista in Sierra Vista, Arizona. Everyone has a worldview. Sadly, many adopt a materialistic one that embraces Darwinian evolution as an alternative to the Genesis creation account. Mr. Sherwin addresses the critical origins issue with 1 Peter 3:15 as a foundation. Mr. Sherwin will also present on Mount St. Helens. After the eruption of MSH the blast area looked like a lunar landscape. It was predicted by some that it would take many decades for animals & plants to repopulate the blast zone. Surprisingly, this was not the case. Creation ecologists have extrapolated this rapid recovery to what happened directly after the Flood 4500 years ago. Read more »

Its specialized interaction with plants, visual color range, complex vocalization, unique flight, and physiological capabilities are a testament to God’s design. Read more »

Dr. Jim Johnson will speak on creation at Tyndale Theological Seminary in Hurst, Texas. Many Christians are familiar with the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:8), yet not so familiar with the Genesis Mandate (Genesis 1:28-30 & 9:1-7) to “be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth.” The Genesis Mandate, which decree applies to both mankind and all animals, prioritizes both reproductive increase and successful use of geographically diverse habitats. Animals display God’s love of variety, exhibiting biodiversity (miscellaneous birds, mammals, insects, fish, etc.) and diverse habitats (forests, grasslands, wetlands, oceans, deserts, etc.), as our Creator providentially fits His very different creatures to fill very different ecosystems. Understanding God’s purposes and bioengineering, for fitting creatures to fill habitats, is clarified by recognizing and refuting false notions of natural science (1 Timothy 6:20). In considering these things, this series analyzes how Bible-based creation ecology clashes with the errors of deism, natural selection, and utilitarianism. Read more »
