Creation
Research is not
underwritten by any one church or denomination.
Creation Research is a faith ministry
funded by the gifts of God's people to proclaim
Christ as Creator, Sustainer, Saviour, Lord and
Judge. |

In the early 70's, a young evangelist shared with us that
everywhere he went. schools, colleges, youth groups, etc.,
9 out of 10 students complained "Why are you wasting
your time telling us about Jesus Christ when we know Adam
and Eve are not true?" The dilemma? How do we reach
people for Christ who have been immunised against the
gospel by the theory of evolution? |
| The
Creation Research grew out of that request and our aim
is to reach the millions indoctrinated to believe man
evolved from ape-like ancestors, therefore they reject
the Bible as false, creation as myth, and Christ as irrelevant. |
It
is also out aim to encourage God's people to know they
can fully trust Christ and His Word concerning creation
and reach out confidently to a world full of evolutionists
who reject the gospel.

| Converted
by Christ from drug addiction, a young man sat in our
office sharing how
he became a Christian. He had discovered abundant evidence
that Christ had lived, died, and risen from the dead.
Yet he rejected it as irrelevant, because he had been
taught evolution was fact and creation false. A Christian
loaned him a book by a man of science who was also a
man of God. The book dealt with the overwhelming scientific
evidence for creation and the flood. After one week,
the drug addict put is faith in Christ as Saviour because
the facts confirmed the Scriptures were reliable. Creation
was true and Christ was Creator and Redeemer.
Such
a situation ought not surprise us. Christ stated (Luke
16..31) "If they don't accept Moses (Creation,
the Flood, Babel, the Law...) they won't be convinced
by the resurrection." Increasingly in society based
on evolution, people reject Christ without consideration.
To reach them, we must like Paul, "Contend for
the faith" and break down the barriers of evolutionary
humanism with the Factual truths of Genesis and the
faith of Christ as Creator.

A
newly converted farmer wanted to reach out to the neighbours
in his valley. When he began, most said they were not
interested in the bible, because at school they had learnt
the Genesis, the first book, was wrong. Everyone was sure
evolution was right. He bought all the books he could
lay his hands on about creation and started anew. He held
Bible studies in his home on creation. The results - many
of his neighbours are now Christians.

Over
the last 16 years, the Lord has enabled us to visit
and research the dinosaur fields of Canada, USA, the
human fossil fields in the Carribean, Australia, New
Zealand and United Kingdom, the Grand Canyon, the coal
fields of the Western World, the beautiful world of
tropical orchids and much, much more. We went not only
to preach in these places, but to collect and record
the evidence of God's grandeur in creation and His awesome
power in the judgement of Noah's flood. This material
has been presented throughout the western world to both
lay and technical audiences with the same aim - remove
the weeds of evolution doubt, plough up the hard ground
of evolutionary scepticism, and sow the seeds of the
gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The
fossil fields of Central Queensland have provided us
with some magnificent specimens of fossil Nautilus shells
(supposedly 200 million years old). But a fossil Nautilus
is identical to a living Nautilus, proving what God
said in Genesis true - things produce after there own
kind. It doesn't matter how old you think fossils are
or what fossil group you pick, the rocks bear testimony
to this one fact. It is our task to display these fossils
in schools and churches etc., to show fact and faith
go hand in hand.
Christianity
is the one religion in the world where faith depends
on facts. As the apostle Paul said - "if it's not
fact that Christ rose from the dead then your faith
is in vain" (1 Corinthians 15:17). It's just as
necessary for the entire Biblical record to be based
on fact. Whether it's Creation, Noah's flood, or the
Tower of Babel, or the Resurrection, the facts show
you can have faith in them all, and more importantly
in the creator Christ.

Third World Student Plea
"Would
you kindly send me some information of a creation. Cause
I have a great confusion as I'm a high school student.
We never argue in a subject science when we learn a
History of Life. I never expect any of the information
and description of things in science of how we became
to being human. So please I reckon you could help me
come to the answer of my great confusion cause I'm wandering
in the darkness."

Satan
has only recently begun introducing evolution to Third
World countries in order to destroy missionary enterprise.
Don't let missionaries down. Learn from what evolution
has done to western society and help us respond to these
pleas. Let's get in first with our spiritual armour
on and provide third world missionaries and others with
the weapons to do battle against the subtleties of Satan
as he seeks to undermine confidence in God's Word and
missionary enterprise. Pray with us as we produce and
supply suitable materials freely to such students and
missionaries in these areas, in addition to our work
in the western world. It is your support which enables
us to do this. |

Psalm
26:7 sums it up nicely.
"That
we may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, and tell of
all God's wondrous works."
Therefore:-
- We
proclaim the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ;
- Believing
the Bible is the written word of God. It is divinely inspired
and inerrant throughout. Its assertions are factually true
and it is the supreme authority in all matters of faith
and conduct.
- We
accept the final guide to the interpretation of Scripture
is Scripture.
- And
the account of origins presented in Genesis is a simple
but factual presentation of actual events and therefore
provides a reliable framework for research into the origin
and history of life;
- Therefore
we research, document and promote the scientific aspects
of creation are important, they are secondary to the proclamation
of the gospel of Jesus Christ as Sovereign, Creator, Sustainer,
Saviour, Lord and Judge, Who is an equal member of the triune
Godhead - Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
