Members Popular Post ... Posted September 2, 2016 Members Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2016 I was having a discussion with a new friend a few weeks ago and the subject of Theistic Evolutionism came up. Apparently, she believed in it, but I didn't know that. She asked me if I thought that it was possible for God to have used Evolutionism to bring about things. I told her, "Not the God of the Bible." She asked me why I said that and I replied, "Because Evolutionism has a long string of deaths bringing man into existence, but the Bible says that one man brought death into existence. (Romans 5:12, 15, 17, 1 Corinthians 15:21). I didn't make a presentation out of it; I said it in about 30 seconds or so. I wasn't expecting the affect it would have. She just sat there, looking at me with her mouth open. I asked her if she was okay and she said, "You just shattered my belief in Theistic Evolutionism in a few sentences. Now, I didn't come up with that reasoning. I had heard it somewhere else and it made such good sense that I kept it. You never know what mixture of logic and Scripture will reach people. eswarden, No Nicolaitans, HappyChristian and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From talking to her, she seems to be saved, but I'm going to ask her and show her for certain from the Bible later today.

Members Alan Posted September 15, 2016 Members Share Posted September 15, 2016 Keep us informed on how the Bible studies progress. If there are any specific areas of the scripture that you feel helps her understand the truth let us know. John Young 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MikeWatson1 Posted October 7, 2016 Members Share Posted October 7, 2016 Another way of blowing theistic evolution out of the water is talking about Jesus' payment for sin and resurrection. The whole reason why Jesus did this does not compute with theistic evolution. It's the same issue.. what brings death in to the world. If it's just death before men came in.. natural.. what's the need for Jesus' sacrifice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
