First Law of Thermodynamics: "Energy can be transformed (changed from one form to another), but it can neither be created nor destroyed."

Considering that matter cannot be created... How is it that the world began? What exploded in the "big bang"? The Bible teaches that a Creator spoke the world (matter) into existence.

Second Law of Thermodynamics: This law is also known as the universal law of entropy which explains that everything decays over time. Everything gradually gets worse, and nothing gets better.

Quite oppositely, the theory of evolution and the idea of survival of the fittest describes a process by which things improve over time. For instance, unneeded and unused traits become extinct while needed and useful traits such as the eyeball evolve. The Bible, as show in the verse below, is compatible with the idea of entropy.

Psalm 102:25-26 "Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands. They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:"

The Law of Cause and Effect: This law states that for every effect, there has to be a cause.

What caused the Big Bang, or what caused the elements of the Big Bang to form in the manner they did?

The Law of Biogenesis: This law declares that life comes only from life.

The theory of evolution calls for, at some point or another, life evolving from non-living matter.

The Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum: This law describes the tendency of a spinning object to continue spinning in the same direction.

The Big Bang Theory explains that a spinning cosmic explosion started the process of evolution. If the Big Bang Theory were true, all of the planets should be spinning in the same direction today. However, Venus, Uranus, and eight moons, have the opposite rotation of the other planets. Also, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune have moons orbiting in both directions.

Mathematical Theories of Probability: The mathematical chance of something actually happening--the odds.

The odds that the theory of evolution actually happened and created the world we see around us to day is such a staggeringly large number that it would not fit on this webpage. The human eyeball alone is millions of times more complex than anything man has ever to created, and to believe that the eyeball arrived by chance is like suggesting that the Empire State Building appeared in New York randomly and that it did not have a builder.

Hebrews 3:4 "For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God."

Each building has a builder. Buildings do not appear by chance. Each human has a creator. Humans, which are a million times more complex than a building, do not appear by chance.

We encourage evolutionists and creationists alike to visit Creation Science Evangelism's website www.drdino.com and read the articles there. www.drdino.com does a fantastic job of showing the scientific inconsistencies of the theory of evolution and how true science is in harmony with what the Bible says. Note: Pioneer Baptist Church does not entirely agree with all of the doctrinal beliefs held by Creation Science Evangelism and www.drdino.com, but it does, wholeheartedly, agree with and use CSE's research and stance on evolution and creation.

Genesis 2:7 "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul."

Genesis 3:19 "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."

Note: Some may argue that the two verses directly above describe the evolutionary process, however if that were true, then, according to Gen. 3:19, soon we will start evolving back into apes and then back into dirt.

From the very beginning God made male and female. Gender does not evolve, according to the theory of evolution, until long after the big bang.

Genesis 5:2 "Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created."

Matthew 19:4 "And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,"

Mark 10:6 "But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female."

The Bible says that everything you see today was made from things that you cannot see. According to evolution you can see what humans evolved from--apes.

Hebrews 11:3 "...Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

The Bible also says that Eve was the mother of all living.

Genesis 3:20 "And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living."

If the reason God created earth was to have humans glorify Him, why would he use evolution and wait billions of years for humans to arrive on the scene?

Revelation 4:11 "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created."

Psalm 148:1-5 "Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts. Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created."

The verse in Psalm 148 says that he commanded and all those things were created. It does not say that he commanded, waited billions of years, and then they were created.

One argument against the six-day creation is the day-age theory which holds that the six creation "days" were actually long periods of time--not 24 hour days. II Peter 3:8 is often used a proof text for this claim. However, the pattern of the Bible shows that whenever a number is attached to the word "day" that the word is referring to a common day. Also, the creation account specifically says that the creation days had an evening and a morning. Why would God confuse us by writing a Bible that leads us to think of the days as actual days when they were, as alleged by some, billions or millions of years?

Genesis 1:13 "And the evening and the morning were the third day."

Jesus seemed to think that the word "day" meant a time period of hours.

John 11:9 "Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day?"

If the days were not literal, how would the plants survive for millions or billions of years without sunlight?

On the third day God made the plants (Gen. 1:11-13), and on the the fourth day he made the sun (Gen. 1:14-19).

Also, if the first six days do represent billions of years, did God sit around and twiddle his thumbs for another billion years when he rested on the seventh day?

Other people believe in what is called the gap theory. This theory holds that between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2 is a humongous gap that fits billions of year, macro-evolution, and Darwin's theory into it. 

The following two points combat the gap theory.

The theory of evolution claims that dinosaurs were extinct long before modern man evolved, yet the Bible says that Job lived alongside dinosaurs.

Job 40:15-24 "Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox. Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly. He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together. His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron. He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. Surely the mountains bring him forth food, where all the beasts of the field play. He lieth under the shady trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens. The shady trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about. Behold, he drinketh up a river, and hasteth not: he trusteth that he can draw up Jordan into his mouth. He taketh it with his eyes: his nose pierceth through snares."

Job 41:1-29 "Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? Canst thou put an hook into his nose? or bore his jaw through with a thorn?... Who can open the doors of his face? his teeth are terrible round about. His scales are his pride, shut up together as with a close seal. One is so near to another, that no air can come between them. They are joined one to another, they stick together, that they cannot be sundered. By his neesings a light doth shine, and his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. Out of his mouth go burning lamps, and sparks of fire leap out. Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot or caldron. His breath kindleth coals, and a flame goeth out of his mouth... He esteemeth iron as straw, and brass as rotten wood. The arrow cannot make him flee: slingstones are turned with him into stubble. Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear."

A final answer to any theory that tries to make the Bible and evolution coincide is the concept of sin. The Bible clearly states that because of Adam's sin, death entered the world as a punishment for sin. Up until Adam's sin, the Garden of Eden was an atmosphere without pain, sorrow, or death. Theistic evolutionists have to forget about the Bible's concept of sin and death to believe that for billions of years before Adam there was death, pain, and the evolutionary process going on.

Romans 5:12 "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:"

II Peter 3:4 "And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation."

God did not use millions of years to create the world. God created the world in six days. Don't put your faith in the unproven, improbable, ignorant, scientifically problematic idea founded by Darwin. Put your faith in the Bible which has been proven to be scientifically and historically accurate over and over. There are no proven errors in the Bible--this cannot be said for the theory of evolution.

Jer. 26:27 "Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us."

I Timothy 6:20 "O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:"
