This weekend I am teaching on Saturday and preaching on Sunday at our home church,Tongham Christian Fellowship near Aldershot. One theme on Saturday will be false faiths- and that includes evolution. What bothers me is that many Christians believe in the evolutionist claptrap.
Even today some misguided man e-mailed to tell us how we are wrong and that the earth is really millions of years old. That's not what God says, and if you disbelieve Genesis then you are calling the Lord Jesus a liar, for he taught it as fact and Genesis is the most referenced book in the New Testament. And yes, the flood was indeed worldwide and evidence for it is all round the world with references to it found in cultures worldwide. Science, archaeology and recorded history all back the Bible, rather than the Darwin delusionists. We will be replying publicly on this website to this e-mail, with a full defence of Creationism, as time permits.
Pat has a B.Sc degree (Cum Laude) and I studied geology at college, but this doesn't make us experts, of course. For that you need to go to the best Creationist websites where all the answers are given in great detail to those who sincerely want to find the truth. They are: CreationOnTheWeb.com and AnswersInGenesis.org - there are many others as well. However, I believe that all Christians should be able to give an account of their faith, why they believe the Bible is truth and a defence pf the fundamentals of Christianity, as set out in The Fundamentals: A Testimony To The Truth, written by Protestant conservative theologians between 1910 and 1915.
I am proud to be a Fundamentalist, believing in these major doctrines:
. The inerrancy of the Bible.
.The virgin birth of Christ.
. The substitutionary atonement of Christ.
. The bodily resurrection of Christ.
. The authenticity of Christ's miracles.
The first point is directly related to belief in Biblical creation as an historical narrative, not a fable and something which our Lord believed to be true. If you believe otherwise you are saying that the Bible is not accurate, that six days of creation really meant something quite different and so on. You are creating a bible of your own imagination - not the Holy Bible, rather an unholy mess.
Furthermore, the pseudo science of evolution is based on fantasy- it is a fairy tale for grown-ups, but with more serious repercussions in that it destroys faith and lets secular humanism become the basis for our society- a main reason why society is falling apart. If there is no absolute truth, then we may as well make up our own truth. Your truth is as good as mine, your morality is as true as mine, there are no absolutes etc. etc.
When I speak I base everything on God's word, which I accept as 100 per cent true. Here are details of this week-end's talks:
A DAY WITH ALAN FRANKLIN From 10.15 am Saturday, 12 June. at TONGHAM CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP, Poyle Road, Tongham, GU10 1DU
Alan will give four Powerpoint presentations, each of about one hour: 1. THE EUROPEAN UNION IN BIBLE PROPHECY (10:30-11:30) This is the most exciting time in the history of the world; things the prophets foretold are unfolding, but the church is asleep.Alan will show that the EU is more than just a superstate. 2. CULTS AND ISMS: TRUE OR FALSE? (11:45-1p.m.) Many Christians are prey to cults and isms which often masquerade as Christian, when the truth is that they are the end time deceptions about which the Bible warns us. Alan will contrast the false teaching of some of the major cults and false religions with what the Bible says. This will include “The Big Green Lie Machine” (global non-warming), Mother Earth philosophy, Freemasonry, Mormonism etc. 3. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON? (2pm-3pm) In a concerted drive to make the nation state obsolete, the building of The New World Order is now well under way. Alan will present the latest developments towards global government, the Mark of The Beast, a one world money system and the cashless society. 4. THE MIDDLE EAST IN BIBLE PROPHECY (3:15-4:30pm) Many nations have despised Israel as in Psalm 83v4: ‘Come let us wipe them out as a nation, that the name of Israel be remembered no more.’ Alan’s focus will be on Israel, the fate of the nations around Israel, and the coming Russian invasion.
