| Name | Norman Crawford - Creation Part 9 - Q and A |
| Description | 1. What scientific proof do we have the dinosaurs lived?There is ample scientific evidence in the fossil record to prove that there were dinosaurs. There was an age of giant reptiles. Job 40 describes the giant monster behemoth.2. How did Adam name every animal in one day?Adam did not name them in one day. He named the animals. Species and sub-species were a result of 3. Does the Sun have a circuit?The descriptions in the Bible about Sun rising and Sun setting are given from the viewpoint of a man in this world. 4. Did leaves, grass and plants not die before the fall?In Eden, nothing ever died. There was no decay or death.5. What was the length of time between creation and the fall?Adam’s full life is given (930 years) in Genesis 5. It is difficult to know if this time includes the time Adam spent in Paradise. Jim Allen ( ) is a creation scholar who believes that Angels were created on the 4th day. Satan was cast down and immediately joined Eve in the garden to tempt her to sin. The point is that short time spans in paradise fit with the scripture record.6. Who were the Sons of God and the giants of Genesis 6? Are there evidences of their existence today? The mistaken interpretation of Genesis 6 is that these were angels that came to earth. I don’t believe these beings were angels. This interpretation comes from ancient mythology from pagan religions. Genesis 4:26, “And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.” A more accurate reading is “then began men to be called by the name of the LORD.” These were godly men who were called “God’s men” which mingled with the daughters of men in Genesis 6. Genesis 6 does not say the offspring were giants. Genesis 6 says there were giants. Angels don’t marry or procreate. 7. Where did Cain get his wife? How does God condone incest?Someone married his sister. Cain or another brother in the family must have married his sister. When the human race was young, there were no regressive genes and therefore no problems with brother-sister marriages.8. How do we respond to the claim that there are other life forms in the universe?I believe there are other life forms in the universe. The Bible refers to “principalities and powers”. The “third heaven” (2 Cor 12) refers to the presence of the Lord as paradise. 9. Adam and Eve were instructed to “replenish” the earth. Does this mean that the earth was at once empty?“Replenish” means to be “fruitful”. (Gen 1:28)10. Since the school system teaches “theory” as “fact”, would it not be better to withdraw our children and teach them ourselves?Home-school or Christian school is a personal choice. There are benefits to each choice.11. If Adam could not die before the fall, then why did he need the tree of life?The Tree of Life was for his enjoyment. The Tree of Life was not forbidden.12. If Adam and Eve were one (skin) color, then how come there are multiple colors today?Humans adapt to environment. Dark-colored skin is found in sun-exposed places. I do not believe that Canaan’s curse was that we would become black. The sons of Noah were divided and formed their own culture. 13. In your judgment is the C-14 dating reliable?No. The variations of the results is extreme.14. Is it harmful for a Christian to study anthropology?God has witnesses in every area of life. Lawyers, though characterized by dishonesty, are sometimes Christians. Christians are planted in their field of work to be a witness for Him. 15. If men choose to believe spontaneous generations and evolution in spite of lack of evidence, what is our approach to reach their mind?Some people will hear the truth and believe.16. The Beast had power to give life unto the image in Revelation. How does Satan give him life?Satan gives the image “power” to speak. He does not give life. Whatever Satan does is a deception. 17. Will the New Heaven and New Earth be a purged place or a new Creation?The New Heaven and Earth will be new. However, the earth is forever. The matter of the universe is eternal, but the form and function of the universe are temporary. Although the universe is “new”, it is new in character, not new in time. The “new song” in Heaven, the “new Jerusalem” are forever “new” because they will never grow old. 18. Is there is reason why God created the things in Genesis 1 in the order they appear?God created light first to provide an environment for the plants.19. What is the language of Heaven?Heaven’s language is holy. It is unspeakable because of its content.20. Will the canopy of Genesis be restored during the Millennium?The description of the light of the New Jerusalem will be more effective than the canopy.21. Will there be climate zones in the Millennium?It is doubtful. The desert will bloom. Killing frost will be gone. 22. Why did God create carnivores?Poisonous, violent and unpleasant characteristics in animals are the result of the fall. All creation fell when Adam sinned.23. Is Jesus a “creation” when he was incarnated?Some people believe that God created a body for Christ and then the Lord stepped into the body. This is not incarnation. Jesus became a man. He did not simply inhabit a body. He took humanity. He had a human spirit.24. Where can we find proof from scripture that there is Extra-terrestrial life?There is reference to life other than humans, but not Martians. The Earth is suited perfectly for life. There may be other planets that are suited for life, but the Bible makes to reference to them. The death of Christ (Col 1:20) affects the entire universe, not just earth. “Earth, the Theater of the Universe” is where God took care of sin for the entire universe. 25. Is Hell a physical part of God’s creation? Was it part of the original creation?It was created for the Devil and his angels. It must have been created after the Beginning.26. Did Adam have white blood cells and an immune system?God built every necessary part of the human body into our DNA. Animals have the ability to adapt to their environment because they have it built into their DNA. 27. In Job, the “morning stars sang together” and Satan is referred to the son of the morning, were angels part of the creation?Angels are each a separate creation. They do not procreate.28. How do you explain that we don’t use the appendix?Vestigial organs are supposedly unused. However, this is a mis-interpretation, since there is 29. Does 1 Corinthians 11 teach that women should have long hair because of creation?Creation teaches that men and women have distinctions. Long hair is a symbol of her femininity. |
