Soft Tissue and Carbon 14 in Fossils

Soft Tissue and Carbon 14 in Fossils

The article which Richard introduces in this video, is the report from a research project carried out for a PhD degree at Liverpool University, and as such, is going to be far too detailed for most of us to want to read. Even so, the important point that comes out is that there is good evidence for the presence of both carbon-14 and soft tissue in fossils. Carbon-14, which is the key to carbon dating, only lasts a matter of thousands of years, as do all biological soft tissues. It cannot be stressed enough, that we are confronted with increasing evidence to suggest that the fossils simply cannot be millions of years old.

The Bible and Truth

The Bible and Truth

In this video and article, Richard discusses the subject or truth. Whist this may be stating the obvious, we live in a world where we do not know everything. As a result, we cannot know the truth about everything, and in fields such as history and science, discovery of new things can change what was previously believed. Whist we cannot always get to the truth through our own human knowledge, God has revealed His truth through the Bible, and provided us with plenty of evidence that it is a true revelation of Himself, through things such as miracles and fulfilled prophecy. Many have trusted in the truth of the Bible down the ages, and we should have the confidence to continue in the same way.

Irreducible Complexity!

Irreducible Complexity!

This video and article refer to the matter of the design and complexity bacterial flagella, a subject that was specifically covered when Michael Behe published his book Darwin's Black Box back in the 1990s. The bacterial flagellum is an excellent example of irreducible complexity, a term that can be applied to a piece of machinery, in which every part is totally dependent upon all the others, and cannot function without them. This is totally incompatible with the ideas of Darwinian evolution, in which everything gradually developed via a large number of small changes. The incredible complexity of biological machinery can only be reasonably attributed to intelligent design.

The Fossils Still Say No to Evolution

The Fossils Still Say No to Evolution

In this video, Richard introduces an article about findings from fossils that occur in the rock layers normally associated with the dinosaur era. As we observe the fossils, we see new types appearing suddendly with no transitional forms. Also we see various groups mixed together, such as dinosaurs, mammals, plants and sea creatures. This all points to the model of a global worldwide flood, rather than to evolution. On top of this, we also find soft tissue in fossils, which clearly indicates that they can only be thousands of years old.

Richard goes on to say how Jesus believed in a worldwide flood, which can been see from how He said that the last days would be like the days of Noah. This being the case, and with all the evidence set before us, we can have complete confidence in the Bible.

Discerning The Signs of the Times

Discerning The Signs of the Times

This video and article are based upon passages in Luke chapters 12-13. Here, Jesus rebukes the crowds for not discerning the signs of the times, and also tells the parable of the barren fig tree. Those things of which He spoke came to fulfilment with the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. Today, we have other signs of the times, such as:

• The restoration of Israel.
• The Church in every nation.
• Rapid increase in persecution of Christians.

In the light of these signs, we need to be getting ready for the Second Coming.

Wrestling with God

Wrestling with God

This video and article come out of a study of Ruth chapter 1, where Ruth pleads to go with her mother-in-law Naomi. Richard then goes on to cite various examples of people pleading/wrestling with God, such as Abraham, Jacob, Moses, the Syro-Phoenician woman, and the parable of the persistent widow. In the present age when the world is very much at odds with God, it is all the more important that we are willing to persist in pleading and wrestling with God.

Soft Tissue in Fossils and the Judgement to Come.

Soft Tissue in Fossils and the Judgement to Come.

In this video, Richard introduces an article about the finding of nerve tissues in the fossil of a Triceratops, and this tissue was found to be surprisingly flexible. The number of cases of soft tissue in fossils is mounting up to such a degree, that cases cannot be written off as "experimental oddities". We are increasingly faced with clear evidence that this has all got to be due to a recent worldwide flood. Richard concludes by reminding us that just as God judged the earth with water, because of the sin of mankind, so He will judge the world again when Jesus returns, this time by fire.

Multiculturalism and Human Rights from God's Perspective?

Multiculturalism and Human Rights from God's Perspective?

In this video and article, Richard discusses some of the implications of attitudes to multiculturalism and human rights in today's world.

• Whilst recognising that the world's population is diverse in terms of culture and customs, there is nevertheless a real danger that we can end up compromising our Judeo-Christian heritage, simply by doing things in the name of muticulturalism.
• Whilst there is a fundamental need to protect the rights and safety of our citizens, we now see society pushing a human rights agenda, that goes far beyond the laws and precepts of God.

We need the wisdom to see these things from God's perspective.

The Destruction of Christianity?

The Destruction of Christianity?

In this video and article, Richard tells us how, in the 1830s, a group of geologically informed people defended the Biblical account of the Flood on the basis of that which was observed in the earth's rocks. At that time, it included things such as polystrate fossils (i.e. spanning multiple rock layers). Unfortunately their work was ignored with the rise of the Theory or Evolution, and in the long run, this has had a devastating effect on the western world. We now have further evidence such as soft tissue in fossils. Will the Church wake up and start to defend the truth of the Bible, and will the academic world repent?

Hymns/Songs Part of the Collective Memory of the Church

Hymns/Songs Part of the Collective Memory of the Church

This video is a follow-on from Richard's recent post Daily Listening to Hymns, and introduces the need to include contemporary worship songs alongside the more traditional hymns, bringing out the fact that the whole spectrum of worship music, from the Reformation through to the present day, is all a valuable part of the Church's heritage.
