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.Από τον Scripture On Creation

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?Από τον Scripture On Creation

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.Από τον Scripture On Creation

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.Από τον Scripture On Creation

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.Από τον Scripture On Creation

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.Από τον Scripture On Creation

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.Από τον Scripture On Creation

A rebroadcast from 10 years ago. A couple questions from listeners are discussed. What does Dr. Scripture think of a newly discovered whale dated to be 12 million years old, and are there genes that greatly increase your chances to live to be 100.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Many passages in God's Word include glorifying descriptions of Him. In this program we look at several passages that specifically describe the Lord's glory by referring to His identity as Creator.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Newly discovered RNAs form a whole new category of the versatile biomolecule RNA. These "new" RNAs are tiny relative to the RNAs already characterized. Nicknamed, miRNA, siRNA and piwiRNA, they are involved in regulating a host of cellular functions and even pass on hereditary traits.Από τον Scripture On Creation

New research has expanded our understanding of the function of DNA that once was thought to be "junk DNA." Newly discovered RNA molecules are involved in the regulation of the cell in ways we never could have imagined.Από τον Scripture On Creation

In Job 12:7-8 Job advises us to learn from the birds and fish. There are many references in the Bible which encourage humans to learn from the animals God created. We consider many of these creatures' qualities and what we should learn from them.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Before Dr. Scripture discusses Job's understanding of God's creation of Man in Job chap 10, we ask all listeners to share what time/place you would choose to visit in Biblical times if you had the opportunity. So, please drop an email to scripture@scriptureoncreation.org and give your input as we compile a top 10 list of times/events our listeners …

God's control of history and what time in the distant past would we like to visit introduce a discussion about what Eden would have been like, and how old Eve lived to be.Από τον Scripture On Creation

In Job chapter 10 Job begins to "forget" what he said about the Lord earlier--in particular that He is the ALMIGHTY. What Job says almost conveys the idea that Job accuses God of acting like a man.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Believers likely will quickly respond, "yes," but can you explain why Jesus being born of a virgin is important? The question is discussed in this program relevant to our celebration of Christmas.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Although skepticism is mounting in the evolutionary community about Darwinism's ability to explain how evolution happens, evolution as the cause for all diversity of life is still adamantly believed by large numbers of scientists, and very unfortunately, also by many educators in Christian colleges.Από τον Scripture On Creation

The state of Darwinism today is described further. Evidence from the disciplines of genetics and molecular biology casts doubts on natural selection's ability to cause evolution. This is a reprisal of the same phenomenon which occurred several decades ago in the field of paleontology.Από τον Scripture On Creation

You don't hear about it in the mainstream media or various "science shows," however, large numbers of scientists are skeptical that Darwin's foundational mechanism for evolutionary change-natural selection-explains how evolution happens.Από τον Scripture On Creation

It's not just in the movies that we can find an obsession with alien life from outer space. The field of astronomy seems focused on it too. The latest data from the Web Space Telescope is discussed in this program.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Job chapter 9 is an especially vivid description of the power of the Almighty displayed in creation. His making and controlling the stars of the universe are highlighted.Από τον Scripture On Creation

In Job chapter 9 we read the first extensive description of some of the "wondrous works without number (vs 10) the Creator performed in the beginning. The purpose of the description being to demonstrate God's omnipotence.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Bildad makes a "telling" remark Job 8:8-9, about the short lifespans of their day; a remarkable statement since Job certainly lived well over 200 years, perhaps even 300 years. The indication being, their ancestors lived much longer lives, confirming the genealogical records of Genesis. photo by George Desipris…

A mutation that results in dwarfism also prevents cancer and diabetes, evidence for evolution by means of natural selection. However, though it can be construed as and example of "survival of the fittest," it doesn't solve evolution's need for novel genetic information producing new abilities.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Shaddai, the Almighty, is a name used to identify the Lord as Creator in Job. It also is used when talking about God as the Judge of His creation. Shaddai made the world, and Man, He has the right to judge the world, and in particular, Man.Από τον Scripture On Creation

The Hebrew name, Shaddai, is used more to identify God in the book of Job than the rest of the Old Testament combined. Shaddai has the meaning, "Almighty," and is therefore, and not surprisingly, associated with the Lord's power displayed in creation.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Job understands he is sinful and must rely on the mercy of his omnipotent Creator for righteousness. His understanding of the Lord is more like a New Testament believer than a follower of the Law (which didn't yet exist).Από τον Scripture On Creation

In a program describing the Hydroplate Model which attempts to explain not only the dynamics of the flood and its effects on earth, but also cratering on the moon, Dr. Scripture made an incorrect statement. He corrects it and discusses the Hydroplate Model further.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Dr. Scripture visited the Sanilac Petroglyphs Historic State Park in Michigan and saw carvings in stone telling the Anishinaabe people's creation story. Their tradition also includes a global flood story--another example of the worldwide memory of the flood recorded in Genesis.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Does a fire-breathing dragon (Leviathan) sound ridiculous--something only possible in fairy tales? There is a beetle alive today that produces an explosive mixture of chemicals as a defense mechanism. If God created such a beetle, is it so unbelievable that He would also create such a dragon?Από τον Scripture On Creation

Is the monster named Leviathan a real creature that could breath fire? Perhaps it's just a mythological dragon, or simply a type of Satan? In this program a case is made for the understanding that Leviathan is an actual beast created by God.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Leviathan is a terrible "monster" fully described in Job chapter 41. The description is of a fire breathing dragon. However, chapter 41 is not the first time Leviathan is mentioned in Job. In Job 3:8 were learn that Job knew better than to mess with Leviathan.Από τον Scripture On Creation

In the exchange between the Lord and Satan we learn that the created beings, both "good and bad" angels do only what the Lord allows them to do. Thus, although Satan was the instrument of Job's torment, ultimately the Lord was responsible for what happened to Job.Από τον Scripture On Creation

In this second part of the interview, Lt Scripture describes how the brain interprets what it sees when there are no reference points to help put an image in context. And, could extra-terrestrials really be the source of the UFOs being sited?Από τον Scripture On Creation

A recent congressional hearing on UFOs has stirred interest in subject. Navy pilots report seeing strange phenomena while flying over the ocean. Lt. Luke Scripture, a Navy helicopter pilot, shares his thoughts on these occurrences.Από τον Scripture On Creation

We begin reading the narrative, learning details about Job. In verse 6 we get a rare glimpse into the supernatural realm of heaven; what follows is an exchange between Satan and the Almighty that will forever affect Job.Από τον Scripture On Creation

A major theme in Job is creation, however, the purpose of what is revealed about creation is to direct our attention to the One responsible for creating it. The Lord's name El Shaddia (God Almighty) is prominently used in Job and reflects His identity as the Creator.Από τον Scripture On Creation

We continue to consider some introductory information about the book of Job in order to understand the background and context of the book. When did Job live?Από τον Scripture On Creation

The genealogy in Genesis 10 includes the statement in the days of Peleg, "the earth was divided." Is that a reference to the continents of the earth dividing?Από τον Scripture On Creation

A thoughtful young lady asks how the differences in the creation accounts of Genesis chapters 1 and 2 can be explained. Understanding Hebrew literature and vocabulary is the key.Από τον Scripture On Creation

How could the complexity of life at the molecular level have occurred by chance and challenges to the ages assigned to supposedly extremely old materials are questions Dr. Scripture proposes evolutionists cannot answer.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Explaining ALL the phenomena in nature from an evolution or creation perspective is not feasible. As creationists we should admit we don't have all the answers. Case in point: why so many marsupials in Australia?Από τον Scripture On Creation

We're starting a new series, "Creation in the book of Job." First we consider the importance of understanding the type of literature Job is written in in order to interpret its meaning correctly.Από τον Scripture On Creation

The simple or literal reading of Genesis chapter 1 is very different from the secular scientific community's explanation for the origin of the universe, earth and life on it. Many ask, "does the Genesis account have to be taken literally?"Από τον Scripture On Creation

Dr. Scripture's interpretation of the number 120 years in Gen 6:3 is it describes the limitation God will set on the lifespan of persons as a result of the effects of the flood. Recent research seems to verify that limit to the human span. Photo by George DesiprisΑπό τον Scripture On Creation

In the second part of the interview with Ray Wenger, author of Jesus Christ Delivers from Dazzling Deception, several of Satan's deceptions which are prevalent in today's world, including evolution, are discussed.Από τον Scripture On Creation

Dr. Scripture interviews Mr. Ray Wenger, author of "Jesus Christ Delivers from Dazzling Deception." In part one they discuss how the form prophetic passages are written in is often overlooked; the result being confusion about the meaning and timing of events.Από τον Scripture On Creation

This program discusses the article "Deep Time Philosophy Impacts Radiocarbon Measurements" in the 2019 vol 55 No 4 issue of Creation Research Society Quarterly.
