There has been quite a bit of stir lately concerning teaching of creation in the schools. You know a few years back there was quite a stir because they wanted to teach evolution in the schools. You see in our country all our schools taught creation. All our schools used the Bibles. All our schools had pledge of allegiance to the flag of the United states. We had teachers that would teach the kids right from wrong and would not afraid to say that’s wrong and that’s right.
But today we have higher education. We have a few intellects that don’t think that’s the way to teach anymore. I want you’re turning to Bible to 1 Corinthians in chapter 15 and notice they’re in verse 12, you and I claim to believe that the Bible is true. You and I claim to believe that Jesus Christ is real, that He is really the Son of God. We say we really believe that. We say that we believe that there is a real literal heaven and hell.
We say we believe that because Christ taught that the Bible teaches that. We’re supposedly what the Bible says. You see if you believe in God you can believe in creation without any trouble at all because you can believe that in the beginning God created the world but if you don’t believe in God you can’t believe in creation. True, think about it. So if I don’t believe in God well I can’t believe in creation so I have to believe that the world got here another way.
Okay, the world is here. Either somebody made it or it made itself. Ah, that’s what it is. The world had to make itself. We Christians believe that in the beginning God created him. But that’s so unscientific because we can’t prove it. Why? Have you ever seen God? Ah, see there? Yours is all by faith. But the evolutionists, they believe that in the beginning There was nothing. And then something created something and brought it here. And there we are. How do they know that’s what happened?
That’s their faith. That’s their belief. But that’s scientific. Can they prove that that’s how it happened? No? Well, what are the facts? There are none. The evolutionists has no facts whatsoever. The evolutionists cannot prove scientifically that evolution ever took place. There is none, but that’s scientific. And we believe the Bible, that’s faith. Well, what’s theirs? Okay, so I put my faith in God. Who did you put your faith in? Who wrote your textbooks? They got theirs from Darwin, doesn’t it?
Evolution was this transmutation of species has never been proven. The reason for this is very simple, It’s never happened. Evolution is no more than the imaginations of men who deny the word of God and so are Desperately struggling for some explanation of the origin of life because the world is here if I don’t believe in God I’ve got to have an explanation. How did the world get here? So they’re trying to cram their religious beliefs down the minds and the throats of the kids that go to our schools and in our universities This is what Charles Darwin said in a book that he wrote my life in letters way after he had wrote his Darwin book on evolution.
And on page 210 this is what he said. He says not one change of species into another is on record. We cannot prove that a single species has ever been changed into another. Charles Darwin said that. Says there is no proof. There is none, but people have taken that little thought and have permeated the mind and sewn the seeds and now we’re refunding the consequences. In the little drawing that I gave you, I want you to look at it.
I put this together about 15 years ago. I drew it and then I had my artist that was in our school draw it for me. And you’ll notice there on the left where it has in the little schoolhouse, The word secular humanism, secular humanism, secular means without God. That’s why they call it, you know, you go to a secular school, means you go to a school that don’t teach about God. That’s a secular school. I believe everything is sacred to me.
Everything I do is sacred. The absence of Christianity doesn’t mean the absence of religion. Everything is taught according to somebody’s belief. Secular humanism is the belief that man is the epitome of all knowledge. That man is the measure of all things. Man himself becomes his own God. Why? Because there is no God. Because they believe that if there is no God, how did we get here? here and so by the process of perhaps some four gases that come together and spontaneous combust them and lo and behold the big bang theory and there’s a blob of protoplasm floating around in the ooze of the Nile and life who came from non-life.
Oh wait a minute you see if it’s scientific that can’t happen why because life the law of biogenesis states that life must come from life and exist on previous life. That’s the scientific fact. All life comes from life and has to exist on life in order to live. That’s the scientific fact. So, is these four gases, is it life? No. Then how can it ever give birth to life? It can’t. It’s unscientific. How did you get from non-life to life?
And then you have a little one cell of Miebuh, one cell of protozoan. They’re supposed to grow and produce everything that we have today. I’m supposed to believe that I as the highest form of this evolutionary process on this evolutionary ladder man with his brain can’t produce the one celled amoeba but I’m supposed to believe that the one celled amoeba without a brain produced me. It’s smarter than Iuthor I am, because I can’t make it, but it could make me.
I can’t produce the world, but I’m supposed to believe the world made me. Can you do it? Have you ever seen evolution take place? You never have. There is no scientific facts for evolution. And yet it permeates our society. You say, well, it doesn’t make any difference, just because they teach a little evolution in our school. Oh no, that is the religion of the atheist that’s taken over our institutions. And that’s why you’ve noticed a secular humanism. That’s the root.
Now look at the fruit. Have you ever wondered where these things come from? And you’re going up through there and you’ll see things about the ERA. That was where the women trying to get theirs years ago. It destroys the family. The drug abuse, the God is dead. The theory of evolution, anti-God, anti-American, anti- Bible, anti-Christ, abortion, pornography, homosexuals, the gay rights movement, the right to suicide, death, education, and the end of legal marriages and ban them prayererial in a new world order in euthanasia.
All these things are the fruits of a bad root. And that’s why these things are permeating our society because we let a little seed somebody sow some tears among the minds of our young kids. And now those kids are adults and adults don’t know right from wrong. Adults have no character and no integrity. And they’re in place of leadership or heaching the kids, they’re filth and they’re trash and they’re secular, humanistic, religion to the minds of those that don’t believe that at all.
Let’s pretend for a moment. Here’s a little Johnny. And I believe in creation. And here’s a man over here’s an atheist. He doesn’t believe in creation. He doesn’t believe in God. He believes everything I don’t believe. Can you have a little child? If I get your child, I’m going to try to teach your child what I believe. If that man gets your child, he’s going to try to teach your child what he believes. Don’t you think that you as the parent ought to have a choice and who gets to teach your child?
But they’re trying to force it by the legislation of the pen and force you to put your kids in a school to be taught by a person that will destroy your child, to destroy your home and destroy our country. Because who have come in while we were sleeping and taken over our country. And I don’t like it. I want you to notice here in 1 Corinthians 15, if Christ be preached that He rose from the dead, I’ll say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead.
In other words, some believe it and some didn’t believe. In other words, some say that there is a God and some say there is no God. Some say there is a resurrection. Some say there is no resurrection. Wait a minute. If we say that we believe it, should not we be able to preserve that teaching in our generation and our children? Yes? Well, what right do somebody else have to destroy what I’m trying to teach? You’ll notice over there in the other drawing where it has American Christian.
This is the Christian faith, the Christian faith. When you take the principles of Christianity and you mix them together with civil liberties, you can produce a country like the United States of America. Remember this, there are nations that have been built by the religious beliefs of its people. There’s countries that atheists have built, and they have a communistic type government because that’s what an atheist wants. There are countries that Muslims have built. There’s countries that Catholicism has built, but America is a country that was built upon the principles of Christianity.
Let me read something to you. The proposition that the United States of America or a Christian and Protestant nation is not so much the assertion of a principle as the statement of a fact. That fact is not simply that the great majority of the people are Christians and Protestants, but that the organic light, the institution, the laws, and the official actions of the government, whether that action be legislative, judicial, executive is and of right should be and in fact must be in accordance with the principles of Protestant Christianity.
This is a Christian and Protestant nation in the sense stated in virtue of a universal and necessary law. If you plan an acorn, you get an oak. If you plan a cedar, you get a cedar. If a country settled by pagans or Mohammedans is developed into a pagan or Mohammedan community, by the same law if a country be taken possession of and and settled by Protestant Christian, that nation, which they came to constitute, must be Protestant and Christian. It is in accordance with analogy.
If a man goes to China, he expects to find the government administered according to the religion of the country. If he goes to Turkey, he expects to find the Quran supreme in regulating all public action. If he goes to a Protestant country, he has no right to complain. Should he find the Bible in the ascendancy and asserting its benign influence of not only on the people but also upon the government. Our rights in this country is that Christians can influence government.
They always talking about well you know the separation of church and state. Don’t forget the separation of church and state. You don’t find it anywhere in the Constitution. It’s not there. That’s what people want to use in order to get Christianity out of the influence of government because there’s eight that’s that want to overtake our country. We don’t have to worry about somebody coming in with some guns and bullets and tanks and bazookas and all the rest of it and Star Wars type.
Oh, we got the enemy among us that are destroying our homes and destroying our young people and destroying our government. It’s been taken over from the inside. We don’t have to worry about it from the outside. If any other religion takes over America, it will be her downfall. evolutionary teaching is nothing but the religion of the atheist. And they got into the school. Remember, it used to be Christianity was taught in the school. The Bible was in the school.
They came in and got that out and don’t want it back in. And so what do we do about that? Let me mention this to you. The University of Georgia, one of the oldest universities in this land, started around the same time as the founder of our country And believe it or not, it was for the purpose of training, men and women, and the principles of Christianity. And there are articles of incorporation. Every person on the board of directors for the University of Georgia must be a Christian and profess the Christian faith.
And the reason is so that they would permeate that institution and make sure that everybody who goes there is permeated in the philosophies of Christianity. University of Georgia. I dare you to find out if all of them profess Christianity. If they don’t, they ought to resign their jobs. Because if they don’t, they are traitors to that institution that was founded for the very purpose of training young and men and women about truth and character. But they won’t do that.
Because while good men slept, the enemy sowed some tears. And now the results are coming. And we don’t like the results, but unless Christianity takes and fights back, we all lose this country and you know what a country will be like when it’s run by atheist? Check communism. America is the greatest nation on the earth. And the reason is, is because it’s the only nation that was founded upon Christian principles. nations were founded upon their religion, but this nation was to be different according to the teachings of this book.
And yes, this was a Christian nation founded upon Christian principles and we had God and the Bible taught to all of the kids because it’s truth and it’s right. Why now do we think that evolution is so scientific. Evolution is not scientific. Evolution is not truth. They’ll tell you that look, this form of life that we know today came from a common ancestor on down the line and that there’s animals that they have common ancestors. They used to teach that man came from an ape but they couldn’t ever find him in links.
So they said that the link is missing and they talked about the Crobe-Manyung, the Heidelberg, man the Pitt the Cantonese, the rekness, men the The Knossers will put the kind men all these different bones that they found. That proves evolution. No, it doesn’t. It’s a bone. We can disagree with the interpretation of those bones. If evolution is true, why don’t they produce the facts? If we came from some common insertion, we came from some ape, where’s the bones? Where’s the half-man in half-eight?
There are none. Between non-life and life. There’s the link between non-life and plant life and plant life and animal life and animal life and human life. There is no links that the link is missing. The whole stupid chain is gone. There is no missing link. Who or what is responsible for the first piece of matter? Art matter is here. They say, mind over matter. You don’t mind, no matter. Matter is here. Where did it come from? Who made it?
Did you make it? Do you know anybody that did if it wasn’t God then it’d be by faith Believing something I was in the school one time and I brought my Bible in there in the man’s door. Hey. Oh, yeah No, Bible no Bible in this school. I says Pardon me. I says you ask me to come and speak and I’m here and I’m gonna speak and I’m gonna use my Evidences that I’ve got he said well, we don’t want religion in the school I says why don’t you sit and shut up?
I says all of your books that you have is your religion That’s your beliefs. That’s your faith written by men. He said, well, the Bible was written by masters. So is yours? I said, yeah, but I got all these books by all these different men. I said, I got 66 books written by different ones. I said, if you can use yours, I can use mine. Yours is faith. So is mine. Okay. We’ll take and go with that. See who has the best answers.
And before it was over, the kids were in there just, yeah, it was riot. Jeremiah 10, 12 says that God created the earth out of his power. That’s where matter came from. God created it, made it. And I believe what the Bible teaches. The second law of thermodynamics teaches that everything is running down. Nothing gets better and better and better. But according to evolutionary teaching, things had to start from chaos and get better and better and better and better and better.
That’s unscientific. The second law of thermodynamics is a scientific law. It’s impossible for evolution to happen. Nothing can produce something better than what it is. You can’t produce anything better than what you are. It’s not the survival of the fittest. It’s the arrival of the fittest. How did you get here? How did it get so good? God says it fell and evolution is just getting better so they’re talking about on a collision course. I’ll take the Bible any day.
Have you ever seen a dog have a monkey? Do you ever worry about your cats having chickens? No because of the fixity of the species. You see a dog has 22 chromosomes and a monkey has 54. You don’t have to ever worry about it. Dogs are always gonna have pups. Going down low, do you mind? But I’m supposed to believe that I got here by the process of evolution. There was something less than a human down the road that I came from.
My ancestors may have swung by the neck, but they didn’t swing by the tail. Man has 46 chromosomes. This chromosome count is a steady factor, and this determines what is called the fixity of the species, and it will not change. Dogs always give birth to dogs, and people always give birth to people. and the Bible says throughout the Scriptures and it reproduced after its own kind, after its own kind, after its own kind, and that’s a scientific fact. Evolution breaks every scientific fact known to man.
And I challenge and I dare any evolution to prove anything about their evolution or strategic with some facts. Have you ever heard of them talk about, well, haven’t you heard about the evolution of the automobile, the evolution of the telephone? it did not evolve. Evolution means that something happens without any outside interference working upon it and causing it to take place. Evolution is random chance. Evolution is little microorganism reproducing into complex forms of life that’s never taken place. Never taken place.
A telephone was made, yeah, but somebody made that telephone. A man with a mind, a man with a brain designed that telephone, that’s why that that telephone works. And that telephone by itself did not evolve and become a beautiful telephone today. And now this digital has a picture on it and has all that stuff in it. An answering machine, a fax machine, it didn’t evolve into that. It developed by an intelligent person outside of it making it work. But you’ll hear him talk about, well, the evolution of the car.
The car didn’t evolve. They didn’t do anything by itself. There was an intelligent behind it. You see, I believe in God, because I believe in the beginning God created. I believe God can do anything He wants to do. And I got a good answer. And that’s scientific. It’s scientific to think and to believe that somebody made this world. It’s dominatiotic for any intellectual man to think that it produced itself. Have you ever seen something come from nothing? Have you ever seen it?
Why should you start thinking that now? The world’s here. You come from nothing? Who made the first matter? Where did the first sex come from? That’s a good one. Study about the sex life of the amoeba. How to split up and stay happy at the same time. Somewhere along the line, some blob had to look at the other blobs and look, let’s stop this reproduction business like this. Oh, why don’t you become a male and I become a female?
How stupid some people must be. It catches my imagination to think that somebody thinks, I’m told they’ll believe that swap. That’s trash. That’s somebody’s belief because they refuse to believe what God says and professing themselves to be wise. They become what? Fools. You want to know truth? Get in this book. Belize this book and you’ll learn what truth is all about. Looking Colossians in chapter 2. Colossians in chapter 2. Now look in verse 8. In the book of Colossians in in chapter two in verse eight says, be where?
Let any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. He said, be careful of anybody who has any philosophy that wanna drag you away from the principles of Christianity. In the book of first Timothy, it talks about in this false science, science falsely so-called, they call it scientists, not science. You want to know how things begin? I got somebody who claims to have been in the beginning and knows exactly how the first man arrived.
I know where all the animals came from. I know how the world got here. I know because I have a witness who was there and he testified and he says, you don’t only have to take my word, I, I’ll give you some prophecies and I’ll tell you what will happen in advance. I’ll give you all the answers in advance. Pre-written history, one-fourth of the Bible. So that whenever we read what he says about this, you know, that might be true because you know, he said this and it’s true.
He said this and it’s true. He said this and it’s true. He said this is gonna happen and it’s true. And everything happened just like he said. We haven’t found him wrong in anything yet. All right, who’s the witness for the evolutionist? Dead Men’s Bones. Dead Men’s Bones. And their bones are always suited for the individual and the life in which they find them and there’s no such thing as half in the media. Where’s this half-monkey and half-man? Where’s all these in betweens?
There are no in-betweens. We’re here today. Why is an evolutionist going on today? They say it will have happened so slowly. You can’t see it happening. How do you know it did? How do you know it happened? Because if you have enough time, anything is possible. That’s their scientific fact. If you have enough time, that’s why scientists need billions and billions of years. Have you ever watched TV sometime, National Geographic, and billions of years ago this volcano? You’ve been to billions of years ago.
And they can throw forward being 20 billion, you don’t mean nothing. It’s kinda like government, $4 billion, $20 billion, nothing, nothing. You don’t mean nothing. And you and I, as Christians, ought to stand for what we believe is true and not be ashamed that we believe the Bible. Not be ashamed, I’m a Christian. I’m not ashamed I believe in God. And I won’t bow to no man. Or no university college president. I’ll get who they may be, how many degrees they may have.
They may sound intelligent, But if you don’t know God, you’re, you’re awful. Because that’s what God says. Look up here just a moment. Let it as a hand represent you and me. This wallet represents sin. We all have sin on it. But God loves us. You see, if you don’t believe in God, you can’t believe none of this. You can’t believe none of this if you don’t believe in God. You see, if you’re an atheist, then you don’t believe you got sin.
That’s just, you’re just the product of your environment. I shot like a dog. You don’t blame a dog for acting like a dog. He has no personal responsibility. Well, that’s what they’re doing with people. You’re just an animal. You see, if there’s no God, you’re only an animal. Well, if you’re nothing but an animal, then treat you like an animal. You’re just an animal. How, then, you don’t try to teach a dog morals? Well, if a man’s only an animal, why teach a man morals?
That’s why they don’t want to teach it in the schools. Don’t you understand? If people don’t understand what they’re doing, they think they’re animals. So they treat them like animals, they educate them like animals. That’s why they don’t try to teach you how to them. They teach you what to think. So you can’t think for yourself. You can’t reason because if you could reason, you wouldn’t believe that stuff. The God says it. We’re humans. We have a spirit inside of it and God loves us and he hates our sin and it is sin.
And God says to go to heaven, we have to be perfect as righteous as God. And we’re not perfect. If there really is a heaven and there really is a hell that a man will spend eternity in. God says, you cannot save yourself. That’s why you need a savior. This man represents Jesus Christ. God in the flesh, Christ took our sins, paid for them on the cross, came back from the dead, said, if we’ll believe that he paid for our sins, he’d put that payment to our count and we’d build a heaven on what Jesus Christ did for us.
That is, yeah, that’s free. God loves us and wants us to have eternal life. That’s more important than anything else in the school.
