God Created Evolution. He Guides It And Controls It.

By Rev. Bill McGinnis, Director - LoveAllPeople.org


"Evolution" is defined as "a process of change in a certain direction."

This is the primary definition in my dictionary, Webster's Ninth New
Collegiate Dictionary. Your dictionary probably says almost the same
thing.

Few people would argue with this definition. Things change, they evolve

in certain directions. Automobiles have evolved from early simple
machines,
as have airplanes and other manufactured items. Laws have evolved,
music
has evolved. Almost everything created by man has evolved from
something
similar to it which existed earlier. Man, as creator of these things,
has
deliberately modified them over time to meet new conditions and to
include
advances in technology.


In Nature too, we see evidence of evolution. God, as Creator of the
Universe, has developed many things progressively from similar things
which He created earlier. This is the way He works, bringing all things

into existence when He is ready for them to exist.

God created evolution, and He guides it and controls it, for His own
purposes. Evolution is not an accident, and it does not happen
according
to any mechanistic process.

The Atheists believe that "random mutation" is the force behind
biological
evolution. "Random mutation" coupled with "survival of the fittest" is
the
algorithm they believe in. They are wrong. The mutations are not
random,
they are are guided and controlled by God. This is why there is such
overwhelming evidence of Intelligent Design throughout all Creation.
Look
at your hand. Could this possibly have happened all by itself. No. It
was
designed, by God, using his process of Guided Evolution to bring it
into
existence.

"Random mutations" could never account for the intricacy and perfection
of
design we see in Nature. If mutations were random, how many
quadrillions
of failed attempts would occur before the spots on the fish are exactly

the same as the markings on the rocks it lives beside? The mathematics
are
prohibitive. Genetic mutations are quite rare, usually the result of a
mistake in copying the code from one cell to another. And they are
random,
not related to any need of the species. So, over a million years the
fish
might randomly grow bigger fins and a smaller tail before it stumbled
across some helpful change in protective markings. Such a cumbersome,
long-winded process could never result in the timely development of
needed
protections. The species would die out first!

No. God is the Creator of everything, just as it says in the Bible. He
uses evolution as one of His creative tools, and he guides it and
controls
it every step of the way.

One more thing, a source of much confusion:


The Bible speaks of the "six days" of Creation. This does not mean that

everything was created in six literal twenty-four-hour days. The "six
days" is a figure of speech, meaning six periods of time. Similarly,
the

Typical ***** Christian response: say everything in the bible is true but
when the facts are proved to be total crap, distort the meaning so that it
fits. So why did the bible say "6 days", when in fact it meant "about 40
billion years divided into 6 eons of time" ????
Why can't you just admit that the bible was written by a bunch of ancients
who didn't know any better?

Why? because it would mean giving up a life long myth, a myth that provides
false hope and succour for a failing mind in a modern world.
The Bible:
Are we to put people to death those who work on The sabbath? [Leviticus 11.30]
amd is the abomination of eating shellfish greater than that of homosexuality?
[Leveticus 11.10].
Biblical law allowed fathers to stone their rebellious sons to death and
soldiers to kill their enemy's already captured men and take their women as
plunder. It condemns the wearing of two different types of fabric at once, the
lending of money for interest, and cutting one's hair.

Because those are God days. That's the response I've heard.

Why can't you just admit that the bible was written by a bunch of ancients
who didn't know any better?

Steps to being a salad bar Christian:
1) Believe in the god of the religion so you can think you'll live
forever.
2) Accept the parts of the Bible you like or don't mind.
3) Ignore the parts that you don't like.
4) When science comes along with facts that threaten your belief,
adjust belief system so it'll include the science.
5) Repeat step 4 as necessary.
