Biblical Inerrancy and the Young vs. Old Earth Debate | with Dr. Hugh Ross Oct 22, 2024

Show notes

Can you believe in biblical inerrancy AND hold to the old earth creation model? There's been an intramural debate brewing between old earth and young creationists, and some evangelical scholars say it's time to rethink the bedrock doctrine of biblical inerrancy for Christianity to remain viable in the intellectual sphere. But what do the Scriptures, along with what we can observe scientifically, reveal about creation and the age of the earth?

Astrophysicist and Christian apologist, Dr. Hugh Ross, joins Frank from the SES 2024 Steadfast conference to discuss questions like:

How does science demonstrate that there was a creation event?
Is Genesis 1 a polemic against the Egyptian creation story?
Does the Bible leave the age of the earth as indeterminate?
When was Adam created and what does Dr. Ross think of William Lane Craig's view of the historical Adam?
Does a person's belief about the age of the earth affect their salvation?
How do young earth creations address the scientific evidence for an old earth?
Did God artificially age the universe?
What about neanderthals?
Should Genesis 1-11 be interpreted differently than the rest of the book?

Whether you're a young or old earth creationist, this podcast episode will be packed with plenty of information that could challenge or bring clarity to your perspective on when and how God created the universe.

The Eclipse of God | with Dr. Erwin Lutzer Oct 08, 2024

Show notes

Is the American Church still shining as the light of Christ, or have we made too many compromises in the name of "tolerance" and "inclusion"? As darkness grows in our nation, it’s becoming clear that the faith of many has become cloudy and confused, leading to the rise of secularism and threats to the freedoms once rooted in the Christian worldview. Where are we headed, and what lessons from the past should serve as warnings for our future?

This week, Frank sits down with the one and only Dr. Erwin Lutzer about his brand new book, 'The Eclipse of God', which explores how America attempts to redefine God, replacing Him with one made in our image. Dr. Lutzer will challenge listeners to count up the cost of being a faithful follower of Christ in the face of growing cultural persecution and expose how the redefining of God has crept into the American Church.
