Creation evangelism … a necessity
Published May 1st, 2007 in Around AiG, Thoughts and ThingsHere is a great testimony on the effectiveness of chronological teaching
and creation evangelism from a reader of the Answers magazine article
(Vol. 1 No. 1) that was posted recently on AiG’s website.
I’m the 4th and 5th grade coordinator at [our church]. We have been
using New Tribes’ “Firm Foundations: Creation to Christ” for almost two
years now. The results are priceless. From the time I began college, I
have questioned the way the church is generally presenting the gospel
today. In reality, the simple tracts, presenting only the death, burial
and resurrection of our Savior are not having as great of an impact as
they once had. I believe that one of the reasons for this is the
Biblical illiteracy which dominates our society. When tracts were
originally handed out, they were handed given to people who had some
Bible background; but today, people with even minimal Bible knowledge
are difficult to find. Unfortunately, this Biblical illiteracy is also
found in the church–much more than most people would like to admit.
Since we have started using the creation evangelism approach, both our
children, and their parents have grown in their knowledge of the
Scriptures. They understand the Bible to be one continual story, with
one outstanding purpose–the message of redemption through Christ alone!
It is when this outstanding purpose is revealed, and the dots are
connected throughout Scripture, that the lights go off, and a Biblical
understanding of redemption takes place. I’ve also seen this work with
neighbors, and children at the YMCA. I believe creation evangelism to
be, in most cases, a necessity.
CREATION MUSEUM FEATURED ON ONENEWSNOW.COM
A news item from onenewsnow.com states:
Workers at a museum that will focus on the biblical account of creation
say the facility is changing lives, even though it has not yet
officially opened. Most recently, a 28-year-old construction worker
accepted Christ as Savior and Lord after working at the Creation Museum
site for a few months.
Hear This Report…Ken Ham is president of Answers in Genesis (AIG), the
biblical creationist and Christian apologetics group that is opening the
Creation Museum, its $27-million project in northern Kentucky near
Cincinnati. So far, he says, ten contractors have been saved while
working at the museum, where many of the workers hear the gospel as they
inquire about the museum.

NEW GAZEBO AT AiG
A new Gazebo (which was basically donated to the Creation Museum
project) has been installed on the East side of the lake.
On Monday night I spoke in Louisville to the golfers who participated in
the golf outing to benefit the Creation Museum. We praise the Lord for
the various ways funds are raised for the Museum project.
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying
Ken
