July 31 - The Powerful Hand of God
Question of the Week: Who is Satan?
| ||||||||||||||||||
In this issue . . .
Q: Who is Satan?A: Christians are often asked questions about Satan: Who is he? Was he created? When was he created?
These and similar questions are valid questions to ask. To answer them, we need to carefully consider what the Bible says, since it is the only completely reliable source of information about Satan. The Bible doesn't give much information about Satan or the angels, but it does give enough to answer some of these questions. God's Word is infallible and the absolute authority, and we need to be leery of conclusions drawn from sources outside the Bible, such as man's ideas or traditions. Let's consider what the Bible says related to these questions. The first use of the name Satan is found in 1 Chronicles 21:1; chronologically, Job, which was written much earlier, surpasses this. Satan is found throughout Job 1 and Job 2. Satan literally means "adversary" in Hebrew. Continue reading to discover more of what Scripture says about Satan, demons, and Hell.

For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

Question of the Week: What's between the layers?
| ||||||||||||||||||
In this issue . . .
Q: What's between the layers? A: If the violent global Flood, described in the astonishing narrative of Genesis 7-8, really occurred, what evidence would we expect to find? Wouldn't we expect to find rock layers all over the earth that are filled with billions of dead animals and plants that were rapidly buried and fossilized in sand, mud, and lime? Yes, and that's exactly what we find. The dominant view today is that slow and gradual (uniformitarian) processes, similar to the processes we observe in the present, explain the thick, fossil-bearing sedimentary rock layers all over the earth. These slow geologic processes would require hundreds of millions of years to deposit all the successive sediment layers. Furthermore, this popular view holds that slow weathering and erosion gradually wore away the earth's surface to produce its relief features, such as hills and valleys. This view has a problem, however. If the fossil-bearing layers took hundreds of millions of years to accumulate, then we would expect to find many examples of weathering and erosion after successive layers were deposited. The boundaries between many sedimentary strata should be broken by lots of topographic relief with weathered surfaces. After all, shouldn't millions of years worth of weathering and erosion follow each deposition? Continue reading as we cover the fifth of six main geologic evidences that testify to the Genesis Flood, and look more closely at a feature that is often overlooked—the boundaries between rock layers. What should they look like, if laid down during a single, global Flood? News to Note Quick Look Another human-race baby: Out of Britain comes more news that upsets the idea of "race." Read more.
