In the video below Spike Psarris presents his testimony of how he went from being an atheist believing in deep time evolution to becoming a Christian by first accepting creationism.
Which do you think is more likely? (1) The Big Bang, or (2) The Six 24-Hour Day Biblical Creation? Be honest.
Psarris originally thought the Big Bang also. After all, that’s what he was taught from an early age. But he no longer does. If you want to hear some of the details justifying his creationist position, here is a talk by him on distant starlight, a major challenge to both positions.
Some naturalists hope the Big Bang is true because it avoids a privileged center (Earth). They replace the Creator with a random supernatural explosion. Christians, however, are divided on whether they should compromise by incorporating the Big Bang in their understanding of reality, or not.
If they do, they compromise on Genesis (and Revelation). What they read in those books becomes mythology. If they don’t, they wonder if their position can be justified. Given explanations from people like Psarris and Russell Humphreys or those in the documentary Is Genesis History?, I think biblical creationism can be justified. That means there is no need to compromise.

Good reminder that it starts with the serpent’s doubt of what God said. Thank you, Mary!

Great post, Frank. I never went for the Big Bang theory. Maybe because I don’t have much of a scientific mind. It’s just easier for me to trust and believe by faith that God created Everything–besides, the opening verses of Genesis are some of the most beautiful poetry He ever wrote ❤
Keeping you and your loved ones in my daily prayers, Frank–have a hugely blessed new week!! 😇 Are you toasty in FL, or shivering in IL?
