Scripture On Creation podcast

There's a 12 chapter "gap" after Job 13 to the next passage related to creation--but what a passage it is.  Job 26 contains one of the "greatest" passages describing the Creator in all Scripture.  AND, Scripture On Creation has just overhauled the website, check it out!

Radiometric dating is widely used to establish the age of various artifacts.  Carbon 14 is used to assess the age of artifacts assumed to be in the range of 50,000 years or less.  Logical and empirical grounds challenging the "standard" interpretation of C14 dating is discussed.

A key issue related to the difference between believing in an "old earth" or "young earth" is one's opinion about the interpretations of radiometric dating.  Carbon 14 dating is a key technique used to date artifacts.  Factors involved in Carbon 14 dating are discussed.  This and next weeks programs were originally broadcast on May 9 and 16, 2023.

After getting some questions from listeners about Dr. Scripture's doctrinal position on creation, i.e. literal interpretation of Genesis 1, global vs. local flood, he expands the "What we believe" statement on the website.  "Stay tuned" there are more additions coming.

Solomon the wisest person of his time (1st Kings 4:29-34)  is described as a naturalist in verse 33.  Might he have believed in evolution?

He is Risen!  The doctrine of the resurrection (Christ's and ours) is essential for salvation.  Although the doctrine of creation is not, an improper understanding of the meaning of the "creation passages" can lead to a crisis of faith and doubts about the gospel itself.

The inspirational thoughts of Psalm have brought glory to the Creator for millenia.  They have also inspired modern day hymn writers to declare the Creator's glory--and grace, just as David marveled, "what is Man that Thou dost take thought of him?"  The beloved, How Great Thou Art, and lesser known, How Can It Be are two such hymns.

Dr. Scripture offers his opinion on the best single piece of evidence to cite if discussing creation vs. evolution with an evolutionist.  And what makes RNA so different from DNA?  The important differences between these two amazing biomolecules are discussed.

Job 13:15 is not about creation, but it is perhaps the keynote verse revealing Job's faith in his Creator.  This profound statement is discussed in the context of when we don't understand what and/or why the Lord does what He does sometimes.

In Job 12:10, Job makes the point that the lives of every living creature are in God's hands.  For the believer that's a comforting thought, for the person who rebels against or rejects God's control of their life, it is disturbing.
