Description
The first book in this two-book set is Elephants in the Room: Evolution Versus the Message of Scripture. “Elephants” are the major theological conclusions of evolution. In that book we watch 13 elephants enter the room and crowd out the message of the Christian faith.
But there is one more elephant. Belief in evolution crowds out a Christian’s faith in the text of Scripture. One More Elephant: Evolution Versus the Text of Scripture covers three topics:
First, it presents what Scripture says about itself: its inspiration, its lack of errors, and its power.
Second, the book continues with a primer on “historical criticism.” This is a method of interpreting Scripture that has evolved over the past three hundred years. It denies that Scripture is literally true and destroys any confidence a Christian might have in the text of Scripture. This is the method theistic evolutionists must use in their attempt to combine Scripture and evolution.
Third, the final three chapters treat the most important theistic evolutionary argument in use today, the Ancient Near Eastern argument. In a nutshell, the argument claims that the Hebrew Scriptures are on the same level as other ancient Near Eastern writings. Modern science has dismissed ancient Egyptian and Babylonian creation myths. Scripture’s teaching of creation and the nature of the universe should also be evaluated in the light of modern scientific discoveries.
The author accepts the six 24-hour-day creation as described in Genesis 1 and 2.
