Creation evangelism is successful. So successful, in fact, that creation ministries are growing rapidly around the world. Ministries like the Institute for Creation Research in the United States and the Answers in Genesis in Australia are not able to keep up with the workload from the ever-increasing demand for their services. Lives are being changed. People are coming to know the Lord Jesus Christ as Saviour. The foundations of creation are being restored little by little. Are you, dear reader, a part of this growing, exciting, and vital ministry in these last days?

We can only exclaim with the Psalmist in his words in Psalm 119:

Thy word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against Thee (verse 11).

Oh how love I thy law! It is my meditation (verse 97).

I have more understanding than all my teachers: for Thy testimonies are my meditation (verse 99).

Through Thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way (verse 104).

Thy word is a lantern unto my feet, and a light unto my path (verse 105).

The entrance of Thy words giveth light: it giveth understanding unto the simple (verse 130).

Thy word is very pure: therefore Thy servant loveth it (verse 140).

Thy law is the truth (verse 142).

Thy commandments are my delights (verse 143).

All Thy commandments are truth (verse 151).

Thy word is true from the beginning (verse 160).

Wake Up, Shepherds!

Much opposition to the creation ministry comes from within the church, particularly from those who have compromised with evolutionism and those who hold to liberal theology. First, please understand that I do not want to sound as if I am hitting too hard at those who have compromised between evolutionism and the Bible. Many people simply do not understand the real issues involved. They really believe scientists have proven evolution and every related issue. For many people, a belief in such positions as theistic evolution, the Gap Theory, and progressive creation came out of sheer pressure from their belief that scientists had proved many, if not all, aspects of evolution. Until relatively recently, Christians had not conducted a great deal of scientific research to be able to explain all the problems with the theory of evolution. For many, holding to the aforementioned compromises gave some ability to cope with a confusing array of supposed "facts."
