- Scripture plainly teaches that God created human beings ex nihilo as complete male and female in His image.
- To teach or to implicitly endorse by lack of teaching any creation account of human beings other than creation by God ex nihilo violates the teaching of scripture.
- Creation of humans male and female according to the Biblical account is true history.
- Jesus Christ believed and taught that humans were created male and female according the Biblical account.
- Nothing in scripture makes sense except in the light of creation.
- Redemption of human beings on earth makes no sense except in the light of creation by God.
- Jesus’ death and resurrection make no sense except in the light of creation.
- There is no need of a Gospel message if human beings are the result of naturalistic processes; materialistic nature knows no good and evil.
- Biblical creation is integral to the entire arc of the Biblical narrative; without creation of male and female by God ex nihilo no other Biblical doctrine is coherently meaningful.
- Church leaders abdicate their responsibility to lead when they fail to uphold the teaching of Biblical creation.
- Church leaders have for years abdicated their responsibility as ministers of God’s kingdom by being equivocal in their understanding and teaching on creation.
- Church leaders must take responsibility for honoring God by unequivocally teaching creation according the the Genesis account in scripture.
- Failure to teach and show the truth of the Genesis account of creation results in persons leaving the faith.
- Church leaders who explicitly teach or implicitly accept naturalistic explanations (with our without God’s supposed involvement) for human existence do not honor God or his Word.
- Naturalistic explanations fail to explain the origin or existence of human beings.
- Natural selection can be shown to be completely irrelevant to the successful creation and existence of new life forms by evolutionary processes.
- Naturalistic explanations such as mainstream theories of evolution relying on natural selection can be shown to be incapable of explaining the origin of human beings.
- Naturalistic explanations cannot explain the origin of human beings, and therefore they are not made believable by adding divine intervention.
- Attempts to harmonize naturalistic evolutionary theories with Biblically clear creative acts of God dishonor God.
- Attempts to harmonize naturalistic evolutionary theories seek to combine a naturalistic science in no need of God with a creative God in no need of naturalistic processes.
- In light of modern science church leaders are without excuse in not opposing all naturalistic evolutionary theories.
- In light of modern science church leaders must be bold in opposing any naturalistic explanations that cannot explain human existence.
- When human beings die they immediately become Biblical creationists.
- Church leaders should seek to make people Biblical creationists before they die.
- Church leaders will be held accountable for those in their care who become Biblical creationists only after they die.
- Church leaders will be held accountable for those in their care who leave the faith because of a belief in naturalistic evolutionary processes.
- Many people misled by naturalistic explanations for human beings dismiss the entire faith.
- Naturalistic explanations for human beings can be shown to be the key idea undermining belief in a creative God for many people.
- Belief in naturalistic evolutionary processes for explaining human origins does not lead to a recognition of a need for a savior.
- People who believe in naturalistic evolutionary processes are deceived, possibly beyond hope.
- A true account of the Gospel requires a true belief in the creation of humans according to the Biblical account.
- Church leaders should teach that naturalistic human origin stories cannot supply what is true with the Biblical account of humans, including intrinsic human worth, dignity, and eternal being.
- Church leaders cannot coherently hold beliefs in naturalistic evolutionary theories and a belief in the Biblical account of creation at the same time.
- Church leaders should never teach or imply any truth to false evolutionary theories for the origin of human beings lest people needlessly lose their fear of God.
- It is blasphemy to teach that human beings evolved from something that was not a human being.
- If human beings evolved from something that was not a human being then human beings are not made in the image of God.
- There is no natural process that can change a thing in nature into an image of God.
- Church leaders should celebrate human origins as encompassing the creation of human beings in the image of God.
- The main treasure of the church should be the Gospel and the grace of God, neither of which have any meaning if evolution is true.
- The Gospel is not advanced if evolution is presumed to be a legitimate explanation of human origins in church teaching.
- The grace of God has no meaning or importance if evolution is presumed to be a legitimate explanation of human origins in church teaching.
- A naturally produce living being, if such could exist, would have no need of salvation.
- A naturally produced living being, if such could exist, would owe no allegiance either in fact or in conscience to a creator.
- A naturally produced being, if such exists, has no necessary sovereign over it.
- What good is done to the church when the Biblical account of creation is denied, either explicitly or implicitly by omission?
- Life has no material, purely natural explanation.
- There is no known natural cause of a first life form.
- Church leaders must affirm that natural selection can create nothing new.
- Church leaders must affirm that natural selection can, if anything, only preserve already-created living things.
- Church leaders must recognize that a practice of science that by definition limits explanations of human origins to natural processes does so by adopting as necessary the philosophical assumption of naturalism being true.
- Naturalism as a philosophy of nature is contrary to scripture.
- The God of the Bible created ex nihilo and His creation needs no natural causative explanations consistent with the philosophy of naturalism.
- The God of the Bible created humans, male and female, in His image for His glory.
- A person who rejects God’s creation of human beings ex nihilo rejects God’s authority.
- Church leaders should seek to prevent persons from rejecting God’s creation of human beings ex nihilo.
- A person who believes human beings were created by natural, unguided, purposeless process of evolution rejects God’s authority.
- Church leaders should seek to prevent persons from believing false teachings that they were created by natural, unguided, and purposeless processes.
- Church leaders should be teach that evolutionary processes fail to explain the creation of new beneficial features of life by the process of error-laden reproduction of genetic codes.
- Church leaders should teach that human beings are divine image-bearers with a responsibility to honor their creator.
- Those who forbid scientific explanations for the creation of human beings by God based on rational inferences of design in nature do not please God.
- Those who fail to teach without reservation that human beings are the sole product of creation ex nihilo by the God of the Bible do not please God.
- Those who base their explanations for the creation of human beings on their belief that God is a delusion and/or dangerous are enemies of God.
- Human beings have no reason to believe they were created by natural processes and every reason to believe that they are special creations of God.
- Christians and Jews should be unified in their insistence that God created ex nihilo as recorded in the Bible.
- Clergy, priests, rabbi’s and others of the professional clergy dishonor God when they deny—actively or passively—God’s special creation of human beings ex nihilo.
- Bible-believers must not be mislead or confused on the subject of their existence.
- God’s people on earth must not be equivocal on the subject of the origins of their existence.
- God’s people on earth must love those who dishonor God by believing they are purposeless creations of nature.
- Church leaders have a first obligation to those they lead in the faith to ensure they know they are not purposeless creati0ns of nature.
- God’s people on earth must love those who hold an animosity toward God as a basis for teaching that humans are a purposeless creation of nature.
- Church leaders have a first obligation to those they lead in the faith to ensure they hold no animosity toward God as regards creation.
- Jesus believed the creation account of Genesis to be true history.
- The apostles believed the creation account of Genesis to be true history.
- God’s creative act ex nihilo of all creation is affirmed in and throughout all of scripture.
- If the church discards its unique revelation of special creation of humans by God, as recorded in Genesis, the church loses the basis for the faith once delivered.
- If the church neglects its unique revelation of special creation of humans by God, as recorded in Genesis, the church risks losing any persuasion to saving faith.
- The evolutionary requirement of purposeless, natural development of human beings is antithetical to scripture.
- The evolutionary requirement of purposeless, natural development of human beings renders the Gospel useless.
- The evolutionary requirement of purposeless, natural development of human beings affords no intrinsic dignity or worth to any human being.
- There is no inherent human purpose in a purposeless, purely material universe.
- There is no inherent human dignity in a purposeless universe.
- There is no intrinsically sovereign being in a purposeless universe.
- There is no objective right and wrong in a purposeless universe.
- Caring in human beings derives from a recognition of perceived right and wrong.
- Caring in human beings derives meaning only if there are objective things that ought to be and other things that ought not to be.
- Caring in human beings requires an objective moral standard.
- An objective moral standard requires a moral standard giver.
- An objective moral standard is objective as to human beings only if it derives outside of human experience; that is, it transcends nature.
- God is the necessary uncaused cause of all creation.
- By Jesus Christ all things were created and they were created for Him.
- The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth.
- God’s truth as revealed in scripture is not changed by what anyone thinks about it.
