Jn 3:20.Evidence for a young
world
[Evidence for a young
world by D. Russell Humphreys, Ph.D.] "Many of the dating techniques that can be used to determine the age of the
universe and the earth point to a maximum amount of time less than the billions
of years required by naturalistic evolution. Galaxies wind themselves up much
too fast to be billions of years old. There are too few visible supernova
remnants. Comets disintegrate too rapidly and have no mechanism to reform. There
is too little sediment on the sea floor to account for erosion and not enough
sodium in the sea to account for billions of years. The earth’s magnetic field
is decaying too rapidly. Rock layers are bent to extreme degrees, suggesting
they folded rapidly while still soft. DNA and other biologic materials should
decay and not be found in fossils—bacteria alleged to be 250 million years old
should have no intact DNA left, yet they were able to grow.
Radioactive halos present in rocks show a time of rapid radioactive decay in the
past. Too much helium resides in minerals that are supposed to be very old.
Carbon-14 is found in diamonds and coal that are supposed to be millions or
billions of years old. There are too few skeletons of Stone Age humans to
support the alleged 200,000-year timespan. Agriculture and historical writings
have been around for too short a period. In combination, this short list
demonstrates that many dating methods defy the billions of years needed to
support evolution’s house of cards." Evoltuion Exposed, Second Ed., Evidence for
a young world, Humphreys.
Evidence for a young world
Response to comment [from other]: "[I]f you could pick the single most compelling evidence for a young earth, what evidence would you pick?"
They willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water (2 Pe 3:5-6).
Response to comment [from other]: [Dialog, Spammer/same material]
CheeseWiz, you are not known for profound dialogue.
When you do not get a response from me, you'll know why.

Jn 3:20.
Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "[T]his is really getting old."
Just the facts, maam.
Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "[W]hat is it about yec material that is so important?"
Believing that God did what he said he did is evidence of faith (Heb 11:3). Believing the truth of creation gives confidence to the believer (Ps 124:8; 146:5,6). If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? Jn 3:12.
Response to comment [from other]: "None of these verses have anything to do with a young earth theory..."
Nothing has anything to do with anything (2 Ti 4:3, 2
Pe 3:4).
Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "[W]hat is it about yec material that is so important?"
Believing that God did what he said he did is evidence
of faith (Heb 11:3). Believing the truth of creation gives confidence to the
believer (Ps 124:8; 146:5,6).
If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe
if I tell you heavenly things? Jn 3:12.
Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "[S]o you have to believe every part of the Bible and there is no way to tell if some parts are more important than others?"
A Christian believes that the Bible is true (2 Tim.
2:15; Jas. 1:18). Every part of scripture means exactly what the author intended
it to mean. It is our job to find out what that is (2 Ti 3:16, Ac 17:11).
As Adrian Rogers puts it: “If I can talk you into something, someone smarter than
me can talk you out of it.”
Scripture (not Rome) is our final authority. We must be Bereans checking
everything for ourselves. Only the Holy Spirit can take the things of God and
make them real to us (1Co 2:10,13). He will point to Christ not a church, group,
or person (Jn 16:14).
Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "[S]o what does bind and loose mean?"
And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of
heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven [Matt.
16:19].
“What are the keys of the kingdom of heaven? Were they given only to Simon
Peter? No, Jesus gives them to those who make the same confession made by Peter,
those who know Christ as Savior. If you are a child of God, you have the keys as
well as any person has the keys. The keys were the badge of authority of the
office of the scribes who interpreted the Scriptures to the people (see
Neh. 8:2–8). Every
Christian today has the Scriptures and, therefore, the keys. If we withhold the
Word, we “bind on earth”; if we give the Word, we “loose on earth.” No man or
individual church has the keys—to the exclusion of all other believers. We have
a responsibility today to give out the gospel because it is the only thing that
can save people. This is a tremendous revelation. Who is sufficient for these
things? You and I have a responsibility that is awesome indeed!” McGee, J.
