4. IV. Contradictions between evolution and the Bible doctrine of creation: (continued)

5. 3. Evolution - Life began from non-living matter by accident. The Bible - Life came from the living God. Acts 14:15; 17:24-29

6. 4. Evolution - All kinds of life came from previous different kinds. The Bible - All kinds of living things were created at the restoration and reproduce after their own kind. Gen 1:11-12, 21-25

7. 5. Evolution - The universe took billions of years to evolve. The Bible - all was created in six days. Gen 1:14-19, 2:1-3

8. 6. Evolution –Man came from the animals, so is just an animal. The Bible - Man was made in God’s image, unique from the animals. Gen 1:26-28; 9:6; Psa 8:4-8; Heb 2:6-8; Acts 17:24-29; 1 Cor 11:7; James 3:9

9. 7. Evolution - Woman evolved from previously existing animals. The Bible - God formed woman from the side of man. Gen 2:21-22; 1 Cor 11:8-9; 15:22, 45, 47; 1 Tim 2:13

10. 8. Evolution - Man ceases to exist or continues to evolve after death. The Bible - Man still exists after death. Mat 22:23-33; 25:46; Rom 2:5-11; 1 Cor 15:20-22; 2 Cor 4:16-5:1; 1 Thes 4:16-18; 5:9-10; Rev 20:11-15

11. 9. Evolution - Death was a necessary part of man’s development. The Bible - There was no death until after man sinned. Gen 2:16-17: 3:17-19; 1 Cor 15:26, 51-57; Heb 2:14-15; Rev 21:4; 22:3.

12. 10. Evolution - Man has evolved to the pinnacle of his existence. The Bible - man has fallen from his original exalted state. Gen 3:1-7; Rom 5:12; 1 Cor 15:21-22

13. 11. Evolution - Implies there is no real purpose in life. The Bible - Man was created to serve God and receive His blessings. Ecc 12:13; Mat 6:33; 16:24-25; Rom 12:1-2; 2 Cor 5:14-15

14. 12. Evolution - Man should set his own standards based on human wisdom. The Bible - man must depend on the Creator to reveal right from wrong and to provide salvation through Jesus. Prov 3:5-6; Acts 4:12
