QUOTES OF THE WEEK!

Praise God for the hammer, the file, and the furnace. The hammer molds us, the file sharpens us, and the fire tempers us. - Samuel Rutherford

Blind metaphysical necessity, which is certainly the same always and every where, could produce no variety of things. All that diversity of natural things which we find suited to different times and places could arise from nothing but the ideas and will of a Being, necessarily existing. - Isaac Newton, Father of Universal Gravitation

Gravity explains the motion of the planets, but it cannot explain who set the planets in motion. God governs all things and knows all that is or can be done. - Newton

...this author humbly insists that it is essential to believe the Genesis record of origins in order to please God. Believing the Genesis record obviously includes the manner in which living things were created ("full-grown" with a superficial appearance of history; e.g., Adam and Eve); the order in which things were created 9e.g., the earth before the sun and moon; trees before marine life; and flying creatures and whales before reptiles and land mammals); and the duration of creation events (six 24-hour days only a few thousand years ago). - Dr. John C. Whitcomb
