Adult Bible Class -- A new series begins on March 14

ELEPHANTS IN THE ROOM: 

Evolution vs. The Message of Scripture

One of the great wars being waged against the Christian faith today is done by attacking the biblical teaching of creation.  Many within the Church have tried to find a compromise between creation and science (evolution) called theistic evolution.  This Bible study compares scriptural teaching with theistic evolution and shows that theistic evolution ends up compromising, not just biblical creation but all the major teachings of Scripture: the nature of God’s original perfect creation, the origin and perfect nature of the first humans, the fall into sin, sin’s curse on creation, God’s plan of salvation for sinners, the saving work of Jesus Christ, and the source of “right and wrong.”

Each lesson begins with a study of Scripture and then compares that with the teachings of theistic evolutionists presented in their own words.
