Nature Never Stops Talking

Book Solves Three Major Problems for Believers
Let
me just say that evolution seems believable in a room full of experts
but it seems ridiculous when you take a walk in the woods. I
hope we can get the word out before the evolutionists succeed in
immunizing America with the false notion that Intelligent Design is not
scientific and underhandedly trying to undermine science with religion.
They are guilty of the accusations they make - however the masses are
sincere, not realizing the anti-science nature of evolution. My
book is about nature, not Genesis. The article below is being posted on
my website in the next day or two. I am posting it here for you even
though it is written for church folks.
There are several vital reasons churches and church leaders should
recognize the importance of the book "Nature Never Stops Talking-The
Wonderful Ingenuity of Nature". It is more obvious after it is read. "Nature Never Stops Talking-The Wonderful Ingenuity of Nature" solves 3 major problems for believers:
First, the entire educated world is inundated with
evolution presented as well-known fact. From every science TV program
to every non-religious science magazine, to our universities, high
schools and elementary schools.
Consider the diabolical implications when a Church
member shrugs it off as non-offensive because he considers evolution as
scientifically proven and Genesis as harmless fiction.
Consider this: If Genesis is harmless fiction to a
Church member that means they are comfortable believing the Bible is
not all true. If the Bible is not completely true and we can select
which is true and not true, how can the Bible be our teacher? In such a
scenario, we decide when the teacher is right and when the teacher is
wrong.
Second, many Church members say they believe the
Bible is 100% true but absolutely have no answer to evolution’s claims.
Many are afraid to look at the facts because it may undermine their
faith. They understand how important it is to believe that the Bible is
the undisputed Word of God but lean more on loyalty than reason. They
say they do not believe evolution is true. When a sincere friend or
even their own children respectfully ask why they believe evolution is
false, there is no straight answer; instead, a discussion on faith and
the validity of God’s Word. Not that this is not absolutely true, but
it appears many believers feel they must dodge truth to retain their
faith. This contradicts “. . . the truth shall make you free.”
Thirdly, there are many Church members who are
openly or secretly evolutionist believing it is proven science. Some
generously excuse God for incorrect scripture choosing to focus more on
the positive qualities of God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit and “better”
scriptures.
My friends, this generosity is not necessary. God is
flawless and perfect. He needs no excuses. He has no need to either
exaggerate or dodge issues. God is the most down-to-earth, common
sense, intelligent Being in the universe. God wants us all to seek
evidence. Our faith is based on real evidence. Creation is no exception.
It is an error to call something false that is
genuinely true. Likewise, it is an error to call something true when it
is genuinely false. By abandoning evidence to embrace expert opinion we
commit a huge oversight. We are underestimating the testimony of all
nature whose Author is the same as scripture.
Romans chapter 1 verse 20 says “For since the
creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and
divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what
has been made, so that they are without excuse.” NASB
The wisdom found in nature is overwhelming hard evidence of supreme
intelligence. Evolution is a nonsense answer to dodge mankind’s
universal marveling at the obviously incredible beauty and wisdom in
all of nature.
We came to God seeking the truth. Why should we turn
from the truth to maintain loyalty to God? It is preposterous and
unnecessary.
The good news is that God and the scripture NEVER
contradict the truth. Nature and scripture do not contradict each
other. Nature and truth do not contradict each other. Nature and
science do not contradict each other. However, evolution contradicts
science in a big way.
Good lies may stand on 2 legs, but the truth stands
on three. When wisely applied, the truth can topple any 2-legged lie.
"Nature Never Stops Talking-The Wonderful Ingenuity
of Nature" will accomplish some wonderful things for honest readers. It
is an easy read, though thoughtful and thought-provoking. It will
celebrate the ingenuity in nature without reference to the Bible or
God. It relentlessly continues showing obvious examples that are not
controversial to anyone. Here is one of the biggest attractions about
the book; the author begins pointing out the fact that you are agreeing
with hard evidence that seriously undermines the theory of evolution.
Lights begin going off. There are not one or two points to memorize but
a seemingly infinite multitude right under your nose. Undisputable,
observable, provable FACTS easy enough to show a child.
This is terrific news because anybody can then ask
any scientist or professor for a straight answer as to why they wish to
contradict these simple truths. Not religious truths, scientific
truths. Plain evidence.
Anyone can see the ignorance of the evolutionary
theory when pitted against the simplicity of the scientific method.
That’s right, against the scientific method. This is not about
evolution vs. the Bible. This is not about evolution vs. Church
loyalty. This is not about science vs. values. This is about truth vs.
lies. This is about fact vs. fiction. This is the scientific method vs.
theories ignoring the scientific method. Myths are fine but not
parading as science.
We begin to see how lame the evolutionists’ finger
pointing is when they prefer arguing about church and state issues
rather than evolution vs. science. Their ploy is noticeable. They don’t
want to talk science because they have no coherent answers. Instead of
answering direct questions with scientific answers, they hope for
escape by declaring “There is no place for religion in science.” That
is no answer. It is dodging questions again. It is more proof of how
incredibly weak their argument is. You see this going on right now in
at least 21 states and the media quotes the scientists. Evolution
declares itself true by popular vote instead of evidence.
Urgency. Their tactics are intentional and
systematic. What scientific theory needs a campaign? What scientific
theory needs to have a well-funded team to make sure people keep
believing the theory? Evolution does. That’s why the National Center
for Science Education has a $700,000 a year budget to defend and train
others how to argue for evolution. You thought research validated
scientific theories. So did I. They think training people how to argue
against competing theories is the way to make something “stay true”.
Urgency, because if they can convince America and
the world that Intelligent Design is a devious, unscientific scam,
people will not be receptive to a pro-Intelligent Design discussion.
They will think they already know the truth from the newspapers. We
must not permit the scientific validity of Intelligent Design to be
discredited without ever being heard. We must present EVIDENCE in
broad, massive strokes so manipulative speech-making becomes a useless
tool and people want proof, not rhetoric. We simply must arm America
with a reason to defy ignorance and manipulation.
Most non-believers also prefer to not be deceived. Most folks have no
respect for lies. "Nature Never Stops Talking-The Wonderful Ingenuity
of Nature" is a fantastic gift to non-believers because it is not a
religious book but a nature book and this one is an eye-opener (check
the reviews and endorsements) Multitudes look to nature for answers.
Probably more exciting than discrediting the
validity of evolution in the minds of believers is the renewal of faith
that is possible. Evolution discredits the Bible. The reason we believe
the Bible is not because we are Church members, we believe the Bible
because it is true. We have an attraction to the truth on any level.
As always, the Bible is vindicated as authentic
simply because it is. A great lesson can be taught to church members
all around the world. Seek truth with no agenda and you will ultimately
end up seeking God and finding Him true and accurate. Seek the truth
without compromise and you will find the Bible your most wonderful
resource.
These lessons have a great domino effect to the
core. We don’t believe in resurrection because we are afraid to believe
otherwise, but because IT IS TRUE. Often we don’t repent of our secret
sins because we don’t really believe God is watching. If we really
believed all we did and said was being recorded as the Bible says, we
would repent - PERIOD.
As harmless as evolution may seem to many Church
members, believing evolution or trying to reconcile evolution with our
faith is undermining what God is trying to accomplish in our hearts and
lives.
The unexpected scale of importance "Nature Never
Stops Talking-The Wonderful Ingenuity of Nature" not only heightens our
appreciation of nature while undermining evolutionary theory (as a
by-product) but the outcome of believing the simple observations in
this book have immeasurable benefits to our faith and lifelong outlook. Excerpts from the book, table of contents, this and other downloadable articles and reviews of the book are available online: www.NatureNeverStopsTalking.com
