What is Scripture On Creation's doctrinal stand on creation?

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 wise scientist

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?

Creation and the Resurrection

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.

Hymns inspired by Psalm 8

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.

Questions about evidence for creation

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.

Creation in the book of Job. Part 20

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.

Creation in the book of Job. Part 19

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.

Creation in the book of Job. Part 18

Job says we should learn from the animals, Job 12:7-8.  We consider the snake, butterflies, poison frogs and flounder; they all point to the wisdom of the Creator.
