Creation Magazine LIVE! - Season 4 (2015)

Contrary to what many popular Old Earth Creationists like Dr Hugh Ross have said, the Reformers held to a 'Young Earth' position. Examine the documented quotes from these esteemed theologians that clearly put to rest any doubt as to their biblical creationist position.

'Living Fossils' are characterized as creatures found in the fossil record (supposedly millions of years old) that are seemingly identical to creatures living today. This is a thorny issue for evolutionists since Darwin proposed his evolutionary hypothesis. The evidence of 'massive change over time' is dwindling rapidly. Meanwhile the evidence supporting creation is growing rapidly.

The Nazi Holocaust is seen by many as a gruesome but aberrant event in history. But 60 years earlier the Darwinian idea that some humans are not fully human resulted in horrifying brutality perpetrated upon the Herero people in south-west Africa. The Holocaust of WWII serves as reminder of the fruit of evolutionary thinking that began long before and continues today.

If the creation/evolution debate was simply about empirical science, the debate would have been over with years ago. So, why is it that the debate continues? Why can't people from opposing views understand the other person's position? Learn the key concept that will unlock your understanding of the origins debate.

Some evolution-believing Christians have declared that the theory of evolution is compatible with the Christian faith. Can evolution be blended with the Bible? This week we take a close look at the damage this kind of thinking has inflicted on the church, Christian theology and the average person's perception of God.

Biological evolution is a far less controversial topic among Christians than the age of the earth. But one event recorded in the Bible is the key to understanding the majority of the issues people have with the idea of 'millions of years'.

Even evolutionist Richard Dawkins agrees "We have seen that living things are too improbable and too beautifully 'designed' to have come into existence by chance." However, the truth is 'design' indicates a 'designer', and natural selection is inadequate to explain the amazing creatures featured on today's show. Watch Richard and Calvin explain the amazing complexity of animals like the quick drawing Pistol shrimp, terrible termites and the tiny seahorse.

There are a variety of views on creation that could be called the 'creationist' view. Whether Christians hold to the Gap Theory, Day Age Theory, Framework Hypothesis or Biblical (Young Earth) Creation, they all believe their interpretation is correct. Which one is correct? Find out who the real creationists are as we sort through the issues on today's show.

In the famous tale from Homer's "Odyssey" the fortress of Troy was defeated by the Greek army leaving a large wooden horse (secretly filled with soldiers) behind as a supposed gift. The Trojans willingly took it into their city leading to their defeat. Today we retrace how 'deep time' infiltrated the church in a similar way, and led to the lack of biblical authority we see today.

Continuing on from previous episodes ("What the church fathers believed about Genesis" and, "What the Reformers believed about Genesis") we now examine the words of the Son of God in His written revelation to us. What did Jesus believe about Genesis?

Dynamic street evangelist Henry De Roos gives practical advice on how to use evidence about God's creation to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Is it true that no 'real' scientist can be a creationist? Many of the founding fathers of modern science were Bible-believing Christians, as were many of the lesser known scientists who expanded our scientific knowledge. Today we examine the lives of brilliant men of science who were also men of God.

Whoops. What happens when scientists find fossils in the 'wrong' evolutionary sequence? This week, learn how the neat, ordered sequence of fossils required by evolution theory has serious problems, but fits wonderfully with the Bible. The facts reveal that the evolutionary time-line is wrong.

The world seems to think Christianity is for simple, uneducated people who are out of touch with science. This week we share a little of the growing, positive evidence for the truth of creation and Christianity. It really is a great time to be a Christian.

Creationists often point to the incredible evidence of design in nature as proof of God's existence. But what about things that don't look well designed or appear to have been designed to do 'bad things'? Evidence of 'design' is not enough. Find out why the true history in the Bible is essential to understand the world we live in.

Rapid speciation has always been a cornerstone of Young Earth Creationist belief. If all of the animals we see today are descended from the limited amount of animals on Noah's Ark then rapid speciation must have occurred. See the stunning evidence of this very thing and why it is so challenging to evolutionists and 'Old Earth' creationists alike.

God's Word says that animals were created to reproduce 'after their kind' (not to evolve into other kinds over millions of years). But what is a 'kind'? If new species are being produced, does that support creation or evolution? Are the 'kinds' mentioned in Genesis the same as today's species?

Many people say the Muslim god and the God of the Bible are the same. If that's true then the Koran and the Bible should agree with one another, but they don't. Find out why a belief that the god of the Koran could never be reconciled with the God that wrote Genesis.

The theory of evolution is described in much detail in most classrooms today. Names, dates, classifications, etc., all seem to point to a very 'scientific' history of the world. But what about Creation? Does it have a cohesive historical narrative that can be backed up scientifically? Absolutely. Look at the 'big picture' of the Bible's history on this week's show.

State run school systems teach evolution as fact. And most children from Christian homes go to state schools. What can a student do to defend their faith in such a hostile environment? How can parents prepare their children? This week we discuss practical tips and real life examples.

Does it matter whether it was global or local? What does the scripture actually say? If it was a global flood, where's the evidence for it? These and other questions are answered.
