For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

1 CORINTHIANS 1:18

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition

of men, after the rudiments of

the world, and not after Christ.

COLOSSIANS 2:8ROMANS 1:16For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

• Our entire DNA sequence is a

• There are 3 billion bases in a

genome

• This is equivalent to 3 Gigs

WHERE DID ALL THIS

INFORMATION COME FROM?

Whenever information is present, the most rational inference is that intelligence was the source.

“But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.”

- 1 CORINTHIANS 8:6

In fact, we NEVER have found a set of information where intelligence was not the source!

If you divide a line into two parts so that:

The longer part divided by the smaller partis also equal to

The whole length divided by the longer part

then you will have the golden ratio.

THE “SIGNATURE” OF GOD?Researchers spotted the

symmetry, termed E8, in the patterns formed by the magnetic spins in crystals of the material cobalt niobate, cooled to near absolute zero and subject to a powerful applied magnetic field.The material contains cobalt atoms arranged in long chains and each atom acts like a tiny bar magnet that can point either ‘up’ or ‘down’.

Researchers observed that the spinning chain of atoms act like a nanoscale guitar string. Applying the magnetic field caused the atoms to spin and magnetically resonate.“You might expect to see random fluctuations of the spins…but what we uncovered was a remarkable structure in the resonances of the magnetic spins indicating a perfectly harmonious state,”said Radu Coldea from Oxford University’s Department of Physics who led the team.For more info, click to read: “Exotic Symmetry Seen in Ultracold Electrons” by Pete Wilton

we found a series (scale) of resonant notes: The first two notes show a perfect relationship with each other. Their frequencies (pitch) are in the ratio of 1.618…”

He is convinced that this is no coincidence and it reflects a subtle form of order present in the quantum system.

Darwin’s HypotheticalTree of Life

Where are the

Transitional Forms?

“…according to its kind”

- Genesis 1:21-25

Darwin proposed that all creatures share a

single common ancestor and that in future

generations the fossil record would

validate this idea with innumerable “transitional forms”

What we find instead is the sudden appearance of countless forms of life, many of which still exist today in the same form.

CIRCULAR REASONING TO DATE FOSSILS BY ROCK LAYERS,

BECAUSE THE ROCK LAYERS ARE DATED BY THE FOSSILS FOUND WITHIN THEM.

In 2005 paleontologist Mary

Schweitzer and her team found intact

blood vessels and red blood cells in a

fossilized femur bone of a…

TYRANNOSAURUS REX!

THE BIG ISSUE?Evolutionists believe the fossilized

bone is 68 million years old, however,

proteins such as these can survive for

only a few thousand years at best.

In 2009 the same team found a host of soft-tissue structures (collagen,

elastin, and hemoglobin) in a duck billed dinosaur bone thought to be

80 MILLION YEARS OLD!

Could this mean

Humans & Dinosaurs

were alive at the same

time?

Statically speaking, that’s like putting all the parts of a watch in a shoe box and expecting it to assemble randomly while

shaking the box. How much time would you need for that to occur?

EVOLUTION IS NOT SCIENTIFIC FACT

IT IS SCIENCE FICTION

• There is absolutely no TANGIBLE proof to support the hypothesis of evolution• All “evidence” presented by evolutionists is based entirely on assumption,

speculation, and continued reinvention• There is a complete resistance on the part of evolutionary scientists to allow the

evidence to direct the path of discovery. Instead the evidence must conform to their unyielding belief in evolution and thus the hypothetical processes of evolution must continually be revised.

• We see no evidence, either in the fossil record or current times, of species becoming new and different species. We see countless examples, however, of adaptation.

• Often times, especially when in debate, evolutionists will resort to insults and other disparaging remarks against creationists rather than provide counter arguments with any substance or content

• Evolutionists have no real explanation HOW their idea of evolution works. The word evolution is, in itself, used as a description of the process.
