Class Objective:
The primary objective of this class is to present biblical evidences of scientific principles. The students will be enlightened on the biblical and scientific perspectives of the origin of man, the origin of giants after the Flood, the Wednesday Crucifixion, and the Ice Age and Cavemen.
The following topics will be discussed Class Topics:
The Origin of Man (Bible and Science) The Origin of Giants after the Flood
The Wednesday Crucifixion The Ice Age and Cavemen
Class Discussions:
The Origin of Man (Bible and Science) Tuesday, June 30th The Bible & creation science reveal a common origin of man – God’s Creation. Acts 17: 26 says, “And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;” Evolution says that we all evolved from a common ancestor during a period of millions of years. Evolution science claims that man evolved from primates, who evolved from quadrupedal mammals, who evolved from small rodent-like reptiles, who evolved from small lizards, who evolved from amphibians – the first part- time land dwellers, who evolved from Haikouichthys – the first vertebrates, which are the common ancestors to all living vertebrates alive today, who evolved from small invertebrates, who evolved from multicellular life such as Jellyfish, who evolved from single-celled organisms.1,2 Gen. 1:20 says, "Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life.” The waters brought forth life. God did not create them from nothing. Gen. 1:21 says, “God made the sea animals and the birds from the waters.” Gen. 1:24 says, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind.” Again the earth brought forth life. Gen. 1:25 says, “God made the animals from the earth.”
Gen. 2:7 says, “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” God did not create man from nothing, He made them directly from the dust of the earth. The validity of the origin of man being from God’s creation 6,000 plus years ago, as well as the problems associated with the unproven theory of evolution will be discussed. Scientists are yet trying to figure out how a single-celled organism became a multicellular animal. The Bible and science agree that the first animal life began in the water.
The Origin of the Giants after the Flood Wednesday, July 1st
Bible students have inquired about the origin of the giants after the Flood. Gen. 10:15 says, “And Canaan begat Sidon his first born, and Heth, and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,” The Amorite (the giant) was the son of Canaan, grandson of Ham, and the great-grandson of Noah. Amos 2:9 says, “Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.” The origins of giants before the Flood (Nephilim) and after the Flood [the Amorite giants (Zamzummim), the Canaanite giants (Anakim), and the Philistine giants (Goliath)] will be discussed. The giant gene came through Ham’s family after the Flood.
The Wednesday Crucifixion Thursday, July 2nd Many new converts ask the question, "How could Jesus have been in the heart of the earth for 3 days and 3 nights if He died on a Friday afternoon and rose before sunrise on a Sunday?" Lev.
23:5-6 says, “In the 14th day of the first month at even is the LORD's Passover. And on the 15th
day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread unto the LORD. ” Jn. 19:14 says, “The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day, (for that Sabbath day was a high day).” Mt. 28:1 says, “In the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher.” These scriptures indicate that Jesus was crucified on the Day of Preparation of the Passover meal. The next day, which was the 14th Day of Nisan/Abib, was the Passover Sabbath (Lev. 23:5). The following day, the 15th Day of Nisan/Abib (Lev. 23:6), was the Feast of Unleavened Bread Sabbath. The weekly Sabbath, which was the 16th Day of Nisan/Abib, followed as indicated in Mt. 28:1. In the year of Jesus’ crucifixion, the Passover Sabbath and the Feast of Unleavened Bread Sabbath occurred back-to-back with the Weekly Sabbath. Instructive charts, illustrating the various Sabbaths, will be discussed. Jesus died on a Wednesday.
The Ice Age and Cavemen Friday, July 3rd
Both Creationists and Evolutionists believe that there were "Ice Ages." But what they don’t agree on is the timing. The theory of evolution suggests that the “Ice Ages” began over 2 million years ago and ended about 11,000 years ago. The Creationists believe that the "Ice Age" occurred in the years following Noah’s Flood about 4,400 years ago. Job 38:30 says, "The waters are hid as with a stone, and the face of the deep is frozen." Job 6:15 says, "My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, and as the stream of brooks they pass away; which are blackish by reason of the ice." Some creationists have postulated that men were forced to hide from the elements in caves during the Ice Age. Job 30:5-6 says, “They were driven forth from among men, (they cried after them as after a thief) to dwell in the cliffs of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks.” Gen. 19:30 says, “And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.” Fully-developed humans lived in caves following the Flood.
