The opening verse in the Bible says, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” This is cosmology — the science of the origin and development of the universe. In creating the universe, God was the Original Scientist. Note the verse doesn’t say when God created the universe or how God created the universe. This is significant! The verse doesn’t say God created the universe 6,000 years ago, as millions of Young Earth Creationists assert. Could the “beginning” actually be 13.8 billion years ago like scientists claim? And why do so many Christians reject the Big ...

In this text, you will hear the word of God through this amazing document. We will take this amazing journey together and learn why this text is not an official book of the Bible.

Why would any educated scientist with a PhD advocate a literal interpretation of the six days of creation? Why, indeed, when only one in three Americans believes “the Bible is the actual word of God and is to be taken literally, word for word” according to a recent Gallup poll. Science can neither prove nor disprove evolution any more than it can creation. Certainly there are no human eyewitness accounts of either. However, certain factors are present today which are capable of swaying one’s beliefs one way or the other. In this book are the testimonies of fifty men and women holding ...

For centuries, the biblical account of Noah’s flood has sparked controversy. Some reject it as myth, while others struggle to reconcile it with a loving God. But what if the real problem isn’t the flood itself, but how we’ve misunderstood it? In Noah’s Flood Revisited, Reasons to Believe founder and astrophysicist Hugh Ross uncovers fresh insights from both Scripture and science, showing how recent discoveries illuminate the historical reality of the flood—and why it matters today.

What do the Jewish Feasts, prophetic Seals and Bowls from the book of Revelation, and an Earth-bound asteroid have in common? This is the question on the lips of every individual who sees the potential correlation between the impending coming of Christ and the imminent approach of the asteroid Apophis. Since the dawn of time, God has had a plan for all humanity’s salvation, and through His time here on Earth, Jesus fulfilled his portion of that plan by purchasing our Redemption. He confirmed this through His revolutionizing of the Old Testament tradition.

This is not just another 'God' book. This is the definitive slap-down, slam-dunk, no-holds-barred prize title fight between the Divine and Richard Dawkins. Take a ringside seat as investigative journalist Ian Wishart presents the explosive scientific and historical evidence of a divinity code - an "inconvenient truth" that Dawkins and others have no credible explanation for, evidence that is turning both science and religion on their heads.

Here is a revolutionary perspective on the relationship between religion and science that builds a bridge between people of all beliefs.

On a brutal winter's day in 1650 in Stockholm, Frenchman Rene Descartes, the most influential and controversial thinker of his time, was buried after a cold and lonely deathfar from home. Sixteen years later, the pious French Ambassador Hugues de Terlon secretly unearthed Descartes' bones and transported them to France. Why would this devoutly Catholic official care so much about the remains of a philosopher who washounded from country after country on charges of atheism?

The New Answers Book 2 explores over 30 exciting and faith-affirming topics, including: *The fall of Lucifer and the origin of evil* *When does life begin (and why does it matter)?* *Is evolution a religion (and why should I care)?* *Archaeology, Egyptian Chronology, and the great flood* *Could early biblical figures like Noah really live to over 900 years of age?* *What was the Star of Bethlehem (and how did the wise men follow it)?* *The “...

Isaac Newton is remembered as the father of modern science—but few realize he was also a devoted student of the Bible. Behind the discoveries of gravity and motion stood a man who spent decades immersed in Scripture, determined to separate God’s truth from human tradition. Isaac Newton: Workman of God’s Word uncovers a side of Newton history has long obscured. While he revolutionized physics and mathematics, he also quietly penned thousands of pages of biblical commentary, convinced that Christianity had been corrupted by church councils and imperial politics. Drawing directly from ...

Since the Renaissance, people have been plagued by the tense battle between science and religion. Revered evolutionist Stephen Jay Gould suggests, instead of choosing between the two, why not opt for a golden mean that accords dignity and distinction to each realm? With intelligence and clarity, Gould renders the complex simple and sheds new light on this dilemma. In this dazzling gem of contemporary cultural philosophy, Gould posits that science defines the natural world, while religion defines our moral world, and they both can coexist peacefully in respectful noninterference.

Religious fundamentalists and biblical literalists present any number of arguments that attempt to disprove evolution. Those with a sympathetic ear often fail to critically examine these creationist claims, leading to an ill-informed public and, perhaps more troubling, ill-advised public policy. As Aron Ra makes clear, however, every single argument deployed by creationists in their attacks on evolution is founded on fundamental scientific, religious, and historical falsehoods - all of them.

A single purpose lies at the heart of all the great religious traditions: awakening to the astonishing reality of the true nature of ourselves and the universe. At the same time, through centuries of cultural accretion and focus on myth and ritual as ends in themselves, this core insight has become obscured. Here Ken Wilber provides a path for reenvisioning a religion of the future that acknowledges the evolution of humanity in every realm while remaining faithful to that original spiritual vision.
