? ? >> BACK IN 1938, A CAPTAIN
00:00:02.66\00:00:08.16
HENRIK GOOSEN WAS FISHING WITH
HIS CREW OFF THE COAST OF SOUTH
00:00:08.16\00:00:12.23
AFRICA WHEN THEY
CAUGHT A VERY UNUSUAL FISH.
00:00:12.23\00:00:15.93
MATTER OF FACT, IT WAS SO
BIZARRE, NONE OF THEM KNEW WHAT
00:00:15.93\00:00:17.93
IT WAS.
00:00:17.93\00:00:19.10
THEY BROUGHT IT BACK TO A
DIRECTOR OF A MUSEUM IN NEW
00:00:19.10\00:00:22.23
ENGLAND, SOUTH AFRICA, AND AFTER
DOING SOME RESEARCH, SHE SAID,
00:00:22.23\00:00:26.63
"THERE'S A
PROBLEM WITH YOUR FISH.
00:00:26.63\00:00:28.43
IT'S BEEN EXTINCT FOR 65 MILLION
YEARS AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE
00:00:28.43\00:00:32.50
ONE OF THE MISSING LINKS."
00:00:32.50\00:00:34.46
IT HAD THESE STUBBY FINS THAT
IT SUPPOSEDLY USED TO WALK UPON
00:00:34.46\00:00:37.93
LAND.
00:00:37.93\00:00:39.03
THE PROBLEM WAS, WHEN THEY
CAUGHT IT, IT WAS IN VERY DEEP
00:00:39.03\00:00:41.23
WATER, AND IN BRINGING IT UP,
IT DIED AS IT GOT CLOSER TO THE
00:00:41.23\00:00:44.33
SURFACE.
00:00:44.33\00:00:45.26
IT'S CALLED A COELACANTH.
00:00:45.26\00:00:46.93
IT LIVED ALONG
WITH THE DINOSAURS.
00:00:46.93\00:00:49.83
SO HOW COULD THERE BE MODERN
COELACANTHS TODAY -- THEY'VE
00:00:49.83\00:00:52.66
CAUGHT SEVERAL OTHERS -- AND IT
REALLY BE 65 MILLION YEARS OLD?
00:00:52.66\00:00:57.36
OR MAYBE THERE'S A
PROBLEM WITH THE DATING SYSTEM.
00:00:57.36\00:01:00.63
DID WE EVOLVE, OR
DID GOD CREATE US?
00:01:00.63\00:01:03.80
WE'RE GOING TO FIND OUT NOW
IN THIS PRESENTATION OF M.I.Q.
00:01:03.80\00:01:08.13

SONG THAT WE LIKE TO SING AT THE

BEGINNING OF
EACH OF OUR PROGRAMS.
00:03:44.30\00:03:46.90
SEVERAL PROGRAMS BACK, WE ASKED
FOR YOUR HELP TO NAME THE SONG.
00:03:46.90\00:03:51.36
THE SONG WAS JUST
WRITTEN FOR THE SERIES.
00:03:51.36\00:03:53.56
WE'VE GOTTEN MANY TEXT RESPONSES
AND EMAILS WITH SUGGESTED NAMES.
00:03:53.56\00:03:58.53
THERE HAS BEEN ONE CENTRAL
SUGGESTION, ONE NAME THAT HAS
00:03:58.53\00:04:02.23
RISEN UP ABOVE THE REST.
00:04:02.23\00:04:03.86
AND I THINK
WE'VE DECIDED ON THAT.
00:04:03.86\00:04:06.16
THIS IS GONNA BE THE NAME.
00:04:06.16\00:04:07.13
NOW, I'M NOT GONNA TELL YOU WHAT
THE NAME IS, BECAUSE YOU'LL BE
00:04:07.13\00:04:09.56
ABLE TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF.
00:04:09.56\00:04:12.00
FOUR WORDS, REPEATED AT LEAST
TWICE IN THE CHORUS OF THE SONG.
00:04:12.00\00:04:17.33
SO WATCH FOR IT AS
WE SING IT THIS EVENING.
00:04:17.33\00:04:19.66
OUR SONG LEADERS

00:07:16.70\00:07:20.16
THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
QUESTIONS: A SPECIAL SERIES OF
00:07:20.16\00:07:24.23
AMAZING FACTS,
ESPECIALLY FOR TEENS.
00:07:24.23\00:07:27.00
AND YOU KNOW, I'D LIKE TO TAKE
A MOMENT TO JUST SAY -- IF I CAN
00:07:27.00\00:07:29.83
DO THIS -- I WANNA SAY HI TO TWO
BATCHELOR TEENAGERS THAT ARE AT
00:07:29.83\00:07:33.46
HOME, STEPHEN AND NATHAN, WHO I
THINK ARE WATCHING THIS SERIES.
00:07:33.46\00:07:36.86

00:07:39.63\00:07:42.76
FAMILIES.
00:07:42.76\00:07:43.66
>> WELL, PASTOR DOUG,
IT'S QUESTION TIME ONCE AGAIN.
00:07:43.66\00:07:47.26
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:07:47.26\00:07:47.93
I PROBABLY -- NOW THAT
YOU MENTION THAT, I PROBABLY
00:07:47.93\00:07:49.66
SHOULD JUST GREET MY FAMILY.
00:07:49.66\00:07:51.80
THEY'RE WATCHING AT HOME.
00:07:51.80\00:07:52.53
>> THEY'RE GONNA
FEEL LEFT OUT NOW.
00:07:52.53\00:07:53.90
>> THEY WILL.
00:07:53.90\00:07:54.53
I DON'T HAVE TEENAGERS, BUT I
KNOW MY KIDS ARE WATCHING, SO I
00:07:54.53\00:07:56.60
JUST WANNA GREET THE
ROSS CLAN BACK IN SACRAMENTO.
00:07:56.60\00:08:00.33
WELL, LET'S GET
TO THE QUESTIONS.
00:08:00.33\00:08:01.60
I THINK THE FIRST
QUESTION IS READY FOR US.
00:08:01.60\00:08:03.33
>> OKAY.
00:08:03.33\00:08:04.76
>> HI, MY NAME IS
DARQUAID [PHONETIC], AND MY
00:08:07.63\00:08:09.80
QUESTION IS, WHY WOULD GOD LET
OTHERS GET THE WRONG IDEA ABOUT
00:08:09.80\00:08:14.00
EVOLUTION AND CREATION?
00:08:14.00\00:08:16.03
>> ALL RIGHT.
00:08:19.03\00:08:20.00
WHY WOULD GOD ALLOW PEOPLE
TO EVEN GET THE WRONG IDEA ABOUT
00:08:20.00\00:08:23.80
CREATION AND EVOLUTION?
00:08:23.80\00:08:26.06
YOU KNOW, REALLY, THAT QUESTION
GOES TO THE HEART OF ANOTHER
00:08:26.06\00:08:28.40
ISSUE: WHY DOES GOD
ALLOW THE DEVIL TO DECEIVE?
00:08:28.40\00:08:32.40
BECAUSE IT'S -- THE WHOLE
TEACHING OF EVOLUTION IS REALLY
00:08:32.40\00:08:34.83
A DECEPTION THAT MANY PEOPLE
HAVE BOUGHT INTO, ALONG WITH
00:08:34.83\00:08:38.90
MANY OTHER DECEPTIONS.
00:08:38.90\00:08:40.73
WHY DOES GOD ALLOW THAT?
00:08:40.73\00:08:42.26
WELL, OUR WORLD, ACCORDING TO
THE BIBLE, HAS BEEN INVADED --
00:08:42.26\00:08:45.06
KIDNAPPED, TO SOME EXTENT --
BY AN ARCH FIEND CALLED SATAN OR
00:08:45.06\00:08:49.96
LUCIFER.
00:08:49.96\00:08:51.00
HE WAS THE HIGHEST
OF GOD'S CREATED BEINGS.
00:08:51.00\00:08:53.80
HE REBELLED.
00:08:53.80\00:08:55.06
AND WHEN HE CAME TO THIS PLANET
IN ITS INFANCY, HE TEMPTED OUR
00:08:55.06\00:08:58.73
FIRST PARENTS TO
LISTEN TO HIM INSTEAD OF GOD.
00:08:58.73\00:09:02.50
THE BIBLE SAYS IN ROMANS 6,
"WHOEVER YOU OBEY, THAT'S WHOSE
00:09:02.50\00:09:06.13
SERVANTS YOU ARE."
00:09:06.13\00:09:07.63
AND WHEN OUR FIRST PARENTS
BEGAN TO LISTEN TO THE DEVIL'S
00:09:07.63\00:09:10.86
SUGGESTIONS INSTEAD OF THE
COMMANDS OF GOD, HE BASICALLY
00:09:10.86\00:09:14.70
KIDNAPPED THIS PLANET.
00:09:14.70\00:09:16.36
AND SO HE'S BEEN SPREADING
DECEPTIONS EVER SINCE THEN.
00:09:16.36\00:09:19.96
THE IDEA ABOUT OUR ORIGINS
IS ONLY ONE OF THOSE MANY
00:09:19.96\00:09:22.76
DECEPTIONS.
00:09:22.76\00:09:24.60
>> LAST NIGHT, PASTOR
DOUG, WE SPOKE ABOUT THE BIBLE.
00:09:24.60\00:09:27.16
CAN YOU TRUST THE BIBLE?
00:09:27.16\00:09:28.46
WELL, WE HAVE A QUESTION THAT
SORT OF TIES IN WITH THAT THEME.
00:09:28.46\00:09:32.36
AND I THINK IT'S READY.
00:09:32.36\00:09:33.96
? ? THE QUESTION IS, HOW DO YOU
00:09:33.96\00:09:42.83
STUDY THE BIBLE?
00:09:42.83\00:09:44.20
>> THAT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION.
00:09:45.60\00:09:47.73
NOW, WHEN I FIRST BEGAN TO READ
THE BIBLE, YOU KNOW, I WASN'T
00:09:47.73\00:09:52.96
RAISED UNDERSTANDING THIS, AND
IT'S WRITTEN WHERE THE BIBLE IS
00:09:52.96\00:09:56.20
DIVIDED UP AND YOU'VE GOT YOUR
BOOKS OF HISTORY AND THE SONGS,
00:09:56.20\00:09:59.26
THE BOOKS OF POETRY, YOU'VE
GOT THE GOSPELS, MINOR PROPHETS
00:09:59.26\00:10:02.00
AND MAJOR PROPHETS.
00:10:02.00\00:10:03.46
AND I FOUND IT WAS HELPFUL TO
GET AN OVERVIEW OF THE HISTORY,
00:10:03.46\00:10:07.66
WHICH IS THE BACKDROP FOR
EVERYTHING ELSE THAT HAPPENS.
00:10:07.66\00:10:09.73
AND YOU KNOW, FRANKLY, I
LOVE THE STORIES IN THE BIBLE.
00:10:09.73\00:10:13.20
AND SO I WAS READING THE STORY
OF THE EXODUS -- GENESIS THROUGH
00:10:13.20\00:10:18.66
EXODUS -- THE STORY OF THE
JUDGES AND FIRST AND SECOND
00:10:18.66\00:10:22.26
SAMUEL, FIRST AND SECOND KINGS.
00:10:22.26\00:10:24.23
AND THEN I WENT TO THE GOSPELS.
00:10:24.23\00:10:26.13
AND THEN EVERYTHING JESUS SAID
IN THE GOSPELS MADE A LOT MORE
00:10:26.13\00:10:29.26
SENSE.
00:10:29.26\00:10:30.50
YOU MIGHT JUST START BY READING
LITTLE PASSAGES AT A TIME.
00:10:30.50\00:10:34.16
THE PSALMS ARE GREAT IF YOU WANT
INSPIRATION AND ENCOURAGEMENT
00:10:34.16\00:10:37.66
FOR THE TRIALS OF LIFE.
00:10:37.66\00:10:39.23
AND IF YOU WANT WISDOM, I KNOW
SOMEBODY THAT READS -- BECAUSE
00:10:39.23\00:10:42.10
THERE'S APPROXIMATELY 30 DAYS IN
EACH MONTH -- THEY READ ONE OF
00:10:42.10\00:10:44.90
THE PROVERBS OF SOLOMON,
OR ONE CHAPTER, EVERYDAY.
00:10:44.90\00:10:49.03
AND YOU GET A LOT
OF WISDOM THAT WAY.
00:10:49.03\00:10:50.90
SO THERE'S A LOT OF WAYS THAT
YOU CAN APPROACH THE BIBLE, BUT
00:10:50.90\00:10:54.06
FIRST GET THE OVERVIEW
OF WHAT THE MAIN STORY IS.
00:10:54.06\00:10:56.90
YOU MIGHT BEGIN, EVEN, BY TAKING
ONE GOSPEL, LIKE THE GOSPEL OF
00:10:56.90\00:11:00.23
LUKE OR JOHN, AND JUST READ THAT
AND GET THE BACKDROP FOR IT.
00:11:00.23\00:11:05.56
AND THEN JUST LET THE
LORD SPEAK TO YOU EVERYDAY.
00:11:05.56\00:11:07.70
THERE ARE MANY BIBLE-READING
PROGRAMS YOU COULD USE.
00:11:07.70\00:11:09.96
I HAVE ONE ON MY COMPUTER.
00:11:09.96\00:11:10.96
EVERY MORNING I USE IT.
00:11:10.96\00:11:12.40
AND YOU KNOW WHAT I'M
DOING NOW -- THIS IS NEW.
00:11:12.40\00:11:14.70
I'M NOT ONLY READING THE BIBLE,
WHICH I'VE DONE FOR YEARS,
00:11:14.70\00:11:17.10
READING THROUGH THE BIBLE, BUT
I'VE GOT AUDIO THAT WILL READ IT
00:11:17.10\00:11:20.00
TO YOU ONLINE.
00:11:20.00\00:11:21.36
YOU CAN HEAR IT READ.
00:11:21.36\00:11:22.20
SO WHILE I'M READING THE WORDS,
I'M HEARING IT READ AND I'M
00:11:22.20\00:11:24.83
FINDING I'M GETTING NEW
THINGS I'VE MISSED BEFORE.
00:11:24.83\00:11:27.43
IT'S A BOOK -- YOU READ AND READ
IT AND READ IT, AND YOU ALWAYS
00:11:27.43\00:11:30.70
GET SOMETHING NEW.
00:11:30.70\00:11:31.46
IT'S LIKE A MINE; YOU
NEVER GET TO THE BOTTOM OF IT.
00:11:31.46\00:11:34.63
>> ABSOLUTELY.
00:11:34.63\00:11:35.90
ALL RIGHT, WELL, PASTOR DOUG,
I THINK WE HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION
00:11:35.90\00:11:37.76
WE'LL GO TO AT THIS TIME.
00:11:37.76\00:11:39.13
>> MY NAME'S LANE, AND...
00:11:42.93\00:11:45.50
I ALWAYS WONDERED, WHY IS THERE
SO LITTLE INFORMATION ON GENESIS
00:11:45.50\00:11:49.53
AND HOW WE WERE CREATED AND
THE TIME SPAN SKIPS SO MUCH?
00:11:49.53\00:11:54.83
>> OKAY, WHY DON'T WE HAVE MORE
INFORMATION IN GENESIS REGARDING
00:11:59.16\00:12:01.46
THE DETAILS OF CREATION?
00:12:01.46\00:12:04.23
WELL, GOD IN THE BIBLE OFTEN
JUST SETS THE BACKDROP WITH
00:12:04.23\00:12:07.70
HEADLINES.
00:12:07.70\00:12:09.43
AND THEN HE GOES IN AND
HE FILLS IN THE DETAILS.
00:12:09.43\00:12:12.06
THE BACKDROP FOR THE PROBLEM
THAT WE HAVE HERE IN THE WORLD
00:12:12.06\00:12:15.40
IS NOT THAT GOD CREATED US.
00:12:15.40\00:12:17.53
HE BASICALLY EXPLAINS THAT
HE CREATED EVERYTHING, THAT HE
00:12:17.53\00:12:21.46
SPOKE THINGS INTO EXISTENCE.
00:12:21.46\00:12:22.73
MATTER OF FACT, IT SURPRISED ME
WHEN I FIRST READ THE BIBLE HOW
00:12:22.73\00:12:25.43
MUCH INFORMATION THERE WAS
REGARDING CREATION, BECAUSE THAT
00:12:25.43\00:12:29.20
WASN'T REALLY THE PROBLEM.
00:12:29.20\00:12:30.43
THE PROBLEM IS SIN.
00:12:30.43\00:12:31.60
AND SO HE TELLS US SIN WAS
INTRODUCED INTO THE WORLD, AND
00:12:31.60\00:12:34.36
THE SOLUTION FOR SIN.
00:12:34.36\00:12:36.26
MATTER OF FACT, THE FIRST THREE
CHAPTERS OF THE BIBLE TALKS
00:12:36.26\00:12:39.46
ABOUT GOD CREATING MAN, PLACING
HIM IN A PARADISE, AND THROUGH
00:12:39.46\00:12:43.73
DISOBEDIENCE, HE LOST
ACCESS TO THE TREE OF LIFE.
00:12:43.73\00:12:48.63
IN THE BEGINNING, THERE'S A
MARRIAGE, THERE'S A SERPENT.
00:12:48.63\00:12:51.50
YOU GO TO THE LAST THREE
CHAPTERS OF THE BIBLE, AND NOW
00:12:51.50\00:12:54.80
YOU HAVE... SIN IS DEALT WITH,
THERE'S ANOTHER MARRIAGE BETWEEN
00:12:54.80\00:12:59.43
CHRIST AND THE CHURCH, MAN CAN
EAT FROM THE TREE OF LIFE AGAIN,
00:12:59.43\00:13:04.03
AND THE SERPENT IS DESTROYED.
00:13:04.03\00:13:05.96
IT'S THE COMPLETE SOLUTION FOUND
IN THE BIBLE: HOW THE GARDEN WAS
00:13:05.96\00:13:09.66
LOST, HOW TO GET
BACK TO THE GARDEN.
00:13:09.66\00:13:12.06
IT'S ALL THERE, REALLY.
00:13:12.06\00:13:13.60
>> WE HAVE ANOTHER IMPORTANT
QUESTION THAT HAS COME IN.
00:13:13.60\00:13:17.10
? ? THE QUESTION
IS, WHAT IS A GOOD
00:13:17.10\00:13:25.43
BIBLE TRANSLATION TO STUDY?
00:13:25.43\00:13:27.73
IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO STUDY THE
BIBLE, WHERE SHOULD THEY START?
00:13:27.73\00:13:30.73
>> WELL, IF YOU'RE WATCHING THIS
PROGRAM IN ENGLISH -- LATER WE
00:13:30.73\00:13:33.93
EXPECT TO TRANSLATE IT -- THERE
ARE MORE ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS OF
00:13:33.93\00:13:37.80
THE BIBLE THAN
ANY OTHER LANGUAGE.
00:13:37.80\00:13:40.46
AND OF COURSE, THE CLASSIC
KING JAMES VERSION HAS HAD MORE
00:13:40.46\00:13:44.60
IMPACT ON THE ENGLISH
LANGUAGE THAN ANY OTHER PIECE OF
00:13:44.60\00:13:47.73
LITERATURE.
00:13:47.73\00:13:48.90
MY FAVORITE, WHAT I'M USING HERE
IS THE NEW KING JAMES VERSION,
00:13:48.90\00:13:52.06
WHICH IS VERY SIMILAR, BUT
SOME OF THE LANGUAGE HAS BEEN
00:13:52.06\00:13:54.73
MODERNIZED A LITTLE BIT.
00:13:54.73\00:13:56.20
MATTER OF FACT, I'M HOLDING
-- THIS IS GOING TO SOUND LIKE A
00:13:56.20\00:13:58.43
COMMERCIAL -- I'M USING
AN AMAZING FACTS STUDY BIBLE.
00:13:58.43\00:14:02.73
AND IT NOT ONLY HAS THE
BIBLE AND THE RED LETTER AND
00:14:02.73\00:14:04.56
EVERYTHING, BUT IT'S GOT ALL
OF THE AMAZING FACTS BIBLE STUDY
00:14:04.56\00:14:07.73
GUIDES IN THE BACK, ALONG
WITH A CONCORDANCE AND STUFF.
00:14:07.73\00:14:10.43
SO YOU CAN GO AROUND
AND GIVE BIBLE STUDIES.
00:14:10.43\00:14:12.96
AND SO, WE WANTED TO DEVELOP
A BIBLE TO HELP PEOPLE NOT ONLY
00:14:12.96\00:14:15.73
STUDY, BUT TO
GIVE BIBLE STUDIES.
00:14:15.73\00:14:18.20
AND YOU CAN FIND
BIBLES THAT HAVE MAPS IN THEM.
00:14:18.20\00:14:20.36
I THINK THIS HAS MAPS TOO.
00:14:20.36\00:14:21.53
YOU CAN FIND ALL
KINDS OF STUDY RESOURCES.
00:14:21.53\00:14:23.46
SO MY FAVORITE IS
THE NEW KING JAMES.
00:14:23.46\00:14:26.93
I THINK IT'S GOOD TO STICK WITH
A BIBLE TRANSLATION THAT IS AS
00:14:26.93\00:14:30.53
CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL TEXT.
00:14:30.53\00:14:33.36
SOME ARE PARAPHRASED BIBLES
WHERE A PERSON SORT OF PUTS IT
00:14:33.36\00:14:36.36
IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE, AND
THEY MIGHT BE EASY READING, BUT
00:14:36.36\00:14:39.26
THEY'RE NOT ALWAYS
ACCURATE FOR STUDY.
00:14:39.26\00:14:42.20
>> ALL RIGHT.
00:14:42.20\00:14:42.90
WELL, THANK YOU, PASTOR DOUG.
00:14:42.90\00:14:43.90
WE HAVE ANOTHER VIDEO QUESTION.
00:14:43.90\00:14:45.73
>> HI, MY NAME IS KHAN
[PHONETIC], AND MY QUESTION
00:14:49.50\00:14:51.83
IS, HOW LONG WERE ADAM AND
EVE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN BEFORE
00:14:51.83\00:14:54.43
THEY WERE KICKED OUT?
00:14:54.43\00:14:55.90
>> GOOD QUESTION.
00:15:00.40\00:15:02.23
HOW LONG DID ADAM AND EVE LIVE
IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN AND ENJOY
00:15:02.23\00:15:05.23
IT BEFORE THEY WERE
EVICTED BECAUSE OF SIN?
00:15:05.23\00:15:08.53
WELL, YOU KNOW, WE CAN
SPECULATE A LITTLE BIT.
00:15:08.53\00:15:10.56
THE BIBLE TELLS US THAT ADAM AND
EVE WERE PERFECT AND HEALTHY,
00:15:10.56\00:15:14.56
AND GOD HAD TOLD THEM,
"BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY."
00:15:14.56\00:15:17.56
THEY HADN'T HAD ANY CHILDREN
YET, AND SO THEY PROBABLY DIDN'T
00:15:17.56\00:15:21.50
GET TO ENJOY THE GARDEN
FOR VERY LONG BEFORE THEY WERE
00:15:21.50\00:15:23.83
TEMPTED, DECEIVED AND CAST OUT.
00:15:23.83\00:15:26.36
AND SO MY GUESS IS --
AND THERE'S NO EXACT WAY OF
00:15:26.36\00:15:29.10
KNOWING -- IT WAS PROBABLY
JUST A MATTER OF WEEKS OR MONTHS
00:15:29.10\00:15:32.26
BEFORE... YOU KNOW, THE
DEVIL COMES WHEN PEOPLE ARE
00:15:32.26\00:15:34.70
VULNERABLE.
00:15:34.70\00:15:35.76
AND THEY WERE FRESH FROM
THE HANDS OF THE CREATOR, AND HE
00:15:35.76\00:15:39.46
KIND OF HIT THEM
WITH A BLITZKRIEG.
00:15:39.46\00:15:41.10
SO I DON'T THINK IT WAS VERY
LONG INTO THEIR LIVES BEFORE
00:15:41.10\00:15:44.10
THIS HAPPENED.
00:15:44.10\00:15:45.20
BY THE WAY, ADAM'S LIFE IS GIVEN
AS I THINK 930 YEARS, AND THAT
00:15:45.20\00:15:49.30
PROBABLY STARTED
FROM HIS CREATION.
00:15:49.30\00:15:51.86
>> WELL, THANK YOU, PASTOR DOUG.
00:15:51.86\00:15:52.86
AND AGAIN, THANK YOU, FRIENDS,

THE WEBSITE IS MIQTEENS.COM.
00:16:10.73\00:16:14.50
PASTOR DOUG, WE'LL
TURN THE TIME OVER TO YOU.
00:16:14.50\00:16:16.13
>> THANK YOU VERY
MUCH, PASTOR ROSS.
00:16:16.13\00:16:19.23
FRIENDS, TONIGHT'S SUBJECT
IS JUST SO IMPORTANT, BECAUSE IF
00:16:19.26\00:16:24.33
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS, WELL,
IT'LL AFFECT YOUR WHOLE LIFE.
00:16:24.33\00:16:29.06
WE'RE DEALING WITH THE
MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS.
00:16:29.06\00:16:31.46
YOU CAN'T HAVE SECURITY UNLESS
YOU UNDERSTAND THE THREE BIG
00:16:31.46\00:16:34.86
ISSUES.
00:16:34.86\00:16:35.60
ONE: WHERE DID I COME FROM?
00:16:35.63\00:16:38.46
TWO: WHAT AM I DOING HERE?
00:16:38.46\00:16:41.53
AND THREE: WHERE AM I GOING?
00:16:41.53\00:16:44.16
YOUR WHOLE PURPOSE IN LIFE
FOR EXISTING AND YOUR WHOLE
00:16:44.20\00:16:47.03
DIRECTION IS GOING TO BE
DEFINED BY THOSE BIG QUESTIONS.
00:16:47.03\00:16:52.30
THERE IS A MASTERPIECE OF
DECEPTION THAT JUST IN THE LAST
00:16:52.30\00:16:57.23
150 YEARS HAS BEEN SPREADING
THROUGH THE WORLD REGARDING THE
00:16:57.23\00:17:02.96
ORIGIN OF MAN THAT IS EXPLODING.
00:17:02.96\00:17:06.13
IT'S DESTROYING
PEOPLE'S PURPOSE FOR LIFE.
00:17:06.13\00:17:09.46
NOW, THIS IS VERY DEAR TO MY
HEART BECAUSE I WAS RAISED --
00:17:09.46\00:17:12.93
YOU KNOW, I WENT TO
14 DIFFERENT SCHOOLS.
00:17:12.93\00:17:16.03
AND I WENT TO CATHOLIC SCHOOLS
AND JEWISH SCHOOLS, PUBLIC
00:17:16.03\00:17:20.96
SCHOOLS, MILITARY SCHOOLS, FREE
SCHOOLS, ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT
00:17:20.96\00:17:24.40
SCHOOLS.
00:17:24.40\00:17:26.16
AND MOST OF THE SCHOOLS I WENT
TO, THEY TAUGHT THAT WE HAVE
00:17:26.16\00:17:29.63
EVOLVED FROM LOWER FORMS OF LIFE
AND THERE'S REALLY NO PURPOSE
00:17:29.63\00:17:32.36
TO LIFE, THAT WE'RE ALL JUST...
00:17:32.36\00:17:36.23
BIOLOGICAL ACCIDENTS OF CHANCE
AND TIME AND THAT YOUR VALUES
00:17:36.23\00:17:42.26
ARE NO IMPORTANT [SIC] THAN MY
VALUES AND THERE JUST REALLY IS
00:17:42.26\00:17:45.10
NO TRUTH, NOTHING MATTERS.
00:17:45.10\00:17:48.63
AND I USED TO THINK A LOT ABOUT
SUICIDE, BECAUSE I THOUGHT,
00:17:48.63\00:17:51.36
"WELL, IF WE JUST SORT OF
EVOLVED FROM SLUDGE, AND WE'RE
00:17:51.36\00:17:55.60
GOING BACK TO FERTILIZER,
THEN WHAT IS THE PURPOSE?
00:17:55.60\00:17:59.06
AND IF PEOPLE STRUGGLE WITH
UNHAPPINESS SO MUCH OF THE TIME,
00:17:59.06\00:18:02.40
WHY NOT GET IT OVER WITH?"
00:18:02.40\00:18:04.20
IS IT ANY WONDER THAT WITH
THE INCREASE IN THE TEACHING OF
00:18:04.20\00:18:08.10
EVOLUTION, THERE'S ALSO
BEEN A SPIKE IN TEEN SUICIDE?
00:18:08.10\00:18:14.36
BECAUSE I THINK IT REALLY CHOPS
AWAY AT THE PURPOSE OF LIFE.
00:18:14.36\00:18:18.20
BUT IF WHAT GOD SAYS IS TRUE, IF
WE HAVE ALL BEEN CREATED IN THE
00:18:18.20\00:18:22.50
IMAGE OF GOD WITH A GREAT
PURPOSE OF GOD AND DESIGNED BY
00:18:22.50\00:18:26.03
GOD AND HE HAS A PLAN FOR
OUR LIVES, WELL, THAT CHANGES
00:18:26.03\00:18:29.40
EVERYTHING.
00:18:29.40\00:18:30.03
YOUR WHOLE PERSPECTIVE ABOUT
WHY YOU'RE ALIVE IS CHANGED.
00:18:30.03\00:18:33.10
IF YOU AND I HAVE EVOLVED,
THERE REALLY IS NO PURPOSE.
00:18:33.10\00:18:36.83
SO THE DEVIL IS WORKING WITH ALL
OF HIS POWER AND SKILL TO TRY TO
00:18:36.83\00:18:42.03
REINFORCE THIS FALSE
TEACHING OF EVOLUTION.
00:18:42.03\00:18:45.30
AND I SHOULD ALSO ADD...
00:18:45.30\00:18:48.40
I GREW UP BELIEVING IN IT.
00:18:48.40\00:18:50.23
I USED TO LAUGH AT PEOPLE
THAT BELIEVE THAT GOD CREATED.
00:18:50.23\00:18:53.36
I THOUGHT IT WAS ABSURD.
00:18:53.36\00:18:56.03
AND NOW I'M ACTUALLY ASHAMED.
00:18:56.03\00:18:59.26
NOT BECAUSE OF JUST WHAT THE
BIBLE SAYS, BUT THE ABUNDANCE OF
00:18:59.26\00:19:04.43
LOGIC AND REASON AND SCIENTIFIC
INFORMATION, I JUST CANNOT
00:19:04.43\00:19:10.33
CONVINCE MYSELF TO BELIEVE THAT
IT IS ALL AN ACCIDENT OF CHANCE.
00:19:10.33\00:19:15.76
NOW, IN OUR LESSON TONIGHT --
AND I MIGHT NOT EVEN GET THROUGH
00:19:15.76\00:19:19.00
ALL THE QUESTIONS IN THE LESSON.
00:19:19.00\00:19:19.96
I'LL COVER AS MANY AS I CAN,
BECAUSE I REALLY WANNA NAIL DOWN
00:19:19.96\00:19:22.80
SOME POINTS.
00:19:22.80\00:19:23.40
BUT IN OUR LESSON, WE'RE GONNA
COVER A SPECTRUM OF ISSUES THAT
00:19:23.40\00:19:27.16
DEAL WITH,
"WHERE DID I COME FROM?"
00:19:27.16\00:19:29.76
WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY AND WHAT
ARE SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT ARE
00:19:29.76\00:19:31.96
BEING CHALLENGED BY
THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION?
00:19:31.96\00:19:36.06
AND BY THE WAY,
IT IS STILL A THEORY.
00:19:36.06\00:19:39.93
YOU MIGHT GET A LOT OF...
00:19:39.93\00:19:42.46
EVOLUTIONARY SCIENTISTS TO
SORT OF STAND TOGETHER AND SAY,
00:19:42.46\00:19:45.33
"ABSOLUTELY, WE BELIEVE
IT," BUT YOU START ASKING THEM
00:19:45.33\00:19:48.26
INDIVIDUALLY THE SPECIFICS ABOUT
WHAT THEY BELIEVE AND THE DATING
00:19:48.26\00:19:51.36
METHODS AND THE GEOLOGIC COLUMN,
THEY ALL BEGIN TO ARGUE AND
00:19:51.36\00:19:55.83
FIGHT AND CLAW
EACH OTHER LIKE CATS.
00:19:55.83\00:19:58.83
THEY DON'T AGREE.
00:19:58.83\00:20:00.30
MATTER OF FACT, MAYBE BEFORE
I GO ANY FARTHER, I OUGHTTA JUST
00:20:01.70\00:20:03.93
SAY THIS WHILE
I'M THINKING ABOUT IT.
00:20:03.93\00:20:06.36
WHY DO WE HAVE THIS THEORY?
00:20:06.36\00:20:08.80
I'VE GOT A
THEORY ABOUT THE THEORY.
00:20:08.80\00:20:10.93
YOU'RE HERE.
00:20:12.03\00:20:13.83
MATTER OF FACT, YOU
MIGHT DO A CHECK RIGHT NOW.
00:20:13.83\00:20:16.93
FEEL YOUR HEART?
00:20:16.93\00:20:19.13
ARE YOU BREATHING?
00:20:19.13\00:20:21.20
LET'S ASSUME THAT YOU JUST
DON'T IMAGINE YOU'RE ALIVE, THAT
00:20:21.20\00:20:24.00
YOU'RE REALLY ALIVE.
00:20:24.00\00:20:24.86
OKAY?
00:20:24.86\00:20:25.36
LET'S ESTABLISH THAT FACT.
00:20:25.36\00:20:26.40
HOW MANY AGREE WITH THAT?
00:20:26.40\00:20:27.13
YOU'RE ALIVE?
00:20:27.13\00:20:28.03
OKAY.
00:20:28.03\00:20:28.80
AND THESE OTHER
PEOPLE ARE ALIVE.
00:20:28.80\00:20:30.43
THEY'RE NOT JUST FIGMENTS OF
YOUR OWN LITTLE DELUSION YOU'RE
00:20:30.43\00:20:32.56
LIVING IN.
00:20:32.56\00:20:33.20
THEY REALLY LIVE TOO.
00:20:33.20\00:20:34.43
ALL RIGHT, SO WE'RE ALL HERE.
00:20:34.43\00:20:36.10
EITHER GOD MADE US -- WE
ARE THE RESULT OF AN INTELLIGENT
00:20:37.66\00:20:42.53
PLAN -- OR THERE IS NO PLAN.
00:20:42.53\00:20:44.73
YOU REALLY ONLY
HAVE THOSE TWO CHOICES.
00:20:44.73\00:20:47.10
IF THERE IS A GOD, THEN
THAT MEANS HE'S IN CHARGE.
00:20:47.10\00:20:52.33
AND THAT MEANS HE IS, WE'RE
RESPONSIBLE TO HIM, THAT HE'S
00:20:52.33\00:20:56.40
THE LEADER.
00:20:56.40\00:20:57.33
SOME PEOPLE DON'T
WANT GOD TO BE IN CHARGE.
00:20:57.33\00:21:01.36
THEY DON'T WANT TO
BE ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD.
00:21:01.36\00:21:03.86
THEY WANT TO DO WHATEVER THEY
FEEL LIKE DOING, LIKE AN ANIMAL,
00:21:03.86\00:21:07.13
AND NOT FEEL GUILTY ABOUT
DOING IT OR FEEL RESPONSIBLE.
00:21:07.13\00:21:10.76
AND SO THEY'VE DEVELOPED A
THEORY THAT REMOVES GOD FROM
00:21:10.76\00:21:16.13
THEIR CONSCIENCE
AND FROM THE EQUATION.
00:21:16.13\00:21:18.66
THAT IS THE REASON.
00:21:18.66\00:21:21.13
THAT'S WHERE
EVOLUTION COMES FROM.
00:21:21.13\00:21:23.33
YOU KNOW, WHEN I FIRST LEARNED
THIS, I WENT TO A SCHOOL.
00:21:23.33\00:21:26.23
IT WAS A BOARDING SCHOOL.
00:21:26.23\00:21:28.20
NOT A CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.
00:21:28.20\00:21:29.83
MATTER OF FACT, IT
WAS THE OPPOSITE OF THAT.
00:21:29.83\00:21:32.23
HAD A SCIENCE TEACHER.
00:21:32.23\00:21:34.40
WAS MARRIED, PREGNANT WIFE.
00:21:34.40\00:21:38.53
ONE DAY SHE CAME INTO THE
CAFETERIA CRYING HER EYES OUT.
00:21:38.53\00:21:41.46
WE ALL BEGAN TO CONSOLE HER
AND TRY AND FIND OUT WHAT WAS
00:21:41.46\00:21:43.26
WRONG.
00:21:43.26\00:21:43.76
AND SHE SAID, "WELL, MY HUSBAND
IS HAVING ANOTHER RELATIONSHIP
00:21:43.76\00:21:47.16
WITH ANOTHER
FACULTY MEMBER, A LADY."
00:21:47.16\00:21:50.93
AND WE SAID, "WELL, HOW
CAN HE DO THAT SO OPENLY?"
00:21:50.93\00:21:53.46
AND SHE SAYS, "WELL, HE BELIEVES
THIS IS NATURAL FOR ANIMALS AND
00:21:53.46\00:21:56.93
THAT WE SHOULD
JUST GO WITH THE FLOW."
00:21:56.93\00:22:00.13
AND THAT'S WHERE THAT
KIND OF THINKING LEADS.
00:22:00.13\00:22:03.16
HE WAS A SCIENCE
TEACHER, BY THE WAY.
00:22:03.16\00:22:04.53
HE SAID, "LOOK, WE'RE ALL
ANIMALS AND THIS HAPPENS IN
00:22:04.53\00:22:06.23
THE ANIMAL KINGDOM.
00:22:06.23\00:22:07.03
WE SHOULD JUST ACCEPT IT.
00:22:07.03\00:22:07.80
IT'S NORMAL; NOTHING PERSONAL."
00:22:07.80\00:22:09.16
THAT'S WHAT HE
WAS TELLING HIS WIFE.
00:22:09.16\00:22:12.53
AND SO, IT DOES MAKE A
DIFFERENCE WHAT YOU BELIEVE.
00:22:12.53\00:22:14.83
AND BACK THEN, I WAS AN ATHEIST.
00:22:14.83\00:22:16.56
I THOUGHT, "SOMETHING
ISN'T RIGHT ABOUT THIS."
00:22:16.56\00:22:19.63
AND I BEGAN TO THINK THAT
THERE MUST BE SOME MORAL TRUTH.
00:22:19.63\00:22:22.53
THERE MUST BE
SOME ACCOUNTABILITY AND
00:22:22.53\00:22:25.60
RESPONSIBILITY
FOR THE WAY YOU LIVE.
00:22:25.60\00:22:28.06
AND SO HAVING SAID THAT AS A BIG
INTRODUCTION, LET'S GET TO OUR
00:22:28.06\00:22:31.36
FIRST QUESTION.
00:22:31.36\00:22:33.33
QUESTION NUMBER ONE IN
OUR BIG QUESTION-ANSWER BOOK.
00:22:33.33\00:22:36.90
IT SAYS...
00:22:38.70\00:22:40.03
LET'S FIND OUT
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
00:22:42.06\00:22:43.73
THIS IS THE BOOK
THAT'S OUR SOURCE BOOK.
00:22:43.73\00:22:45.50
IN GENESIS 1:3, IT READS...
00:22:45.50\00:22:49.06
NOW, YOU AND I THINK,
"WOW, THAT'S PRETTY SIMPLE.
00:22:56.36\00:22:58.46
GOD JUST SAYS, 'LET THERE
BE LIGHT,' AND THERE IS LIGHT."
00:22:58.46\00:23:01.00
YOU KNOW, I SAW AN INTERESTING
PROGRAM PUT OUT BY NOVA.
00:23:01.00\00:23:04.76
NOVA IS A
SCIENTIFIC ORGANIZATION.
00:23:04.76\00:23:07.43
THEY ARE EVOLUTIONISTS.
00:23:07.43\00:23:10.13
THEY MAKE FUN OF PEOPLE
WHO BELIEVE IN CREATION.
00:23:10.13\00:23:13.03
AND IN THIS PROGRAM CALLED THE
ELEGANT UNIVERSE, NOVA REPORTS
00:23:13.03\00:23:15.70
"THE NEWEST RESEARCH INDICATES
THAT ALL OF THE UNIVERSE CAME
00:23:15.70\00:23:20.10
AS A RESULT OF SOUND."
00:23:20.10\00:23:23.63
I'M QUOTING NOW.
00:23:23.63\00:23:24.76
"ACCORDING TO STRING THEORY,"
SOME OF YOU MAYBE ARE STUDYING
00:23:24.76\00:23:27.56
THAT, "ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING
IN THE UNIVERSE, ALL OF THE
00:23:27.56\00:23:31.26
PARTICLES THAT MAKE UP MATTER
AND FORCES, IS COMPRISED OF
00:23:31.26\00:23:34.96
TINY, VIBRATING
FUNDAMENTAL STRINGS.
00:23:34.96\00:23:38.36
SOUND WAVES."
00:23:38.36\00:23:40.40
HA!
00:23:40.40\00:23:41.16
THAT'S WHAT IT
SAYS IN THE BIBLE.
00:23:41.16\00:23:43.00
"AND GOD SAID..."
00:23:43.00\00:23:46.06
HE SPOKE THINGS INTO EXISTENCE.
00:23:46.06\00:23:48.90
NOW I KNOW YOU AND I ARE
THINKING, "HOW COULD THAT
00:23:48.90\00:23:50.30
POSSIBLY BE?"
00:23:50.30\00:23:51.60
BUT THINK ABOUT HOW LITTLE
WE KNOW, COMPARED TO HOW MUCH
00:23:51.60\00:23:54.56
KNOWLEDGE THERE IS.
00:23:54.56\00:23:55.96
ONE THING YOU'RE GOING TO FIND
OUT, YOU KINDA OF GO THROUGH A
00:23:55.96\00:23:59.03
CURVE IN LIFE...
00:23:59.03\00:24:01.03
WHEN YOU'RE YOU KNOW... 6, 7,
8, 9, YOU REALIZE, "YOU KNOW, I
00:24:01.03\00:24:04.26
DON'T KNOW VERY MUCH.
00:24:04.26\00:24:05.43
EVERYBODY AROUND ME SEEMS TO
KNOW SO MUCH," AND YOUR PARENTS,
00:24:05.43\00:24:07.63
YOU THINK THEY'RE GENIUSES.
00:24:07.63\00:24:08.90
AND THEN YOU GET INTO THE
TEENAGE YEARS AND YOU THINK,
00:24:08.90\00:24:10.43
"WOW, MY PARENTS
DON'T KNOW ANYTHING."
00:24:10.43\00:24:13.53
AND THEN YOU KNOW, AROUND, 18,
20, YOU START COMING OUT OF THAT
00:24:13.53\00:24:16.16
AND YOUR CONCEPT OF HOW MUCH
YOU KNOW STARTS GOING BACK DOWN
00:24:16.16\00:24:19.63
AGAIN.
00:24:19.63\00:24:20.13
YOU GET A LITTLE MORE HUMBLE.
00:24:20.13\00:24:21.36
AND THEN AS YOU GET OLDER, YOUR
IDEA OF HOW MUCH YOU KNOW IS
00:24:21.36\00:24:24.43
GONNA GO LIKE THIS.
00:24:24.43\00:24:25.70
YOUR KNOWLEDGE WILL GO UP
BECAUSE THE FEAR OF THE LORD AND
00:24:25.70\00:24:28.46
HUMILITY IS THE
BEGINNING OF WISDOM.
00:24:28.46\00:24:30.60
SO THE OLDER YOU GET, THE MORE
YOU KNOW YOU DON'T KNOW AND THAT
00:24:30.60\00:24:33.80
MEANS YOU KNOW MORE.
00:24:33.80\00:24:36.23
DID YOU GET THAT?
00:24:36.23\00:24:38.90
THE MORE YOU LEARN, THE MORE
YOU'LL REALIZE, "I DON'T KNOW."
00:24:38.90\00:24:42.26
SO FOR US TO SAY, "HOW CAN GOD
CREATE THINGS BY SPEAKING THEM
00:24:42.26\00:24:45.26
INTO EXISTENCE?"
00:24:45.26\00:24:46.53
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
00:24:46.53\00:24:47.30
HE SAID IT, HE CAN DO IT.
00:24:47.30\00:24:49.40
AND WE MAY NEED TO CATCH UP WITH
ALL THE SCIENTIFIC ANSWERS FOR
00:24:49.40\00:24:51.86
THAT.
00:24:51.86\00:24:52.63
AND SOMEONE ASKED A GOOD
QUESTION: WHY ISN'T THERE MORE
00:24:52.63\00:24:54.60
IN THE BIBLE ABOUT THE
SCIENTIFIC NATURE OF CREATION?
00:24:54.60\00:24:57.76
YOU KNOW HOW MANY BOOKS
WE'D HAVE HERE TO TRY AND GET US
00:24:57.76\00:25:00.43
TO UNDERSTAND HOW GOD CAN
SPEAK SOMETHING INTO EXISTENCE?
00:25:00.43\00:25:04.00
THINK ABOUT THE UNIVERSE AGAIN.
00:25:04.00\00:25:06.63
HE'S VERY POWERFUL.
00:25:06.63\00:25:07.50
HE'S VERY BIG.
00:25:07.50\00:25:08.76
BUT HE GAVE US
WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW.
00:25:08.76\00:25:11.03
AND SO TRUST HIS WORD.
00:25:11.03\00:25:12.76
QUESTION NUMBER TWO:
00:25:12.76\00:25:14.66
NOW, BEFORE I GO TO THE
SCRIPTURE TO GIVE YOU THE
00:25:24.93\00:25:26.56
ANSWER...
00:25:26.56\00:25:28.10
ANY OF YOU EVER
HEARD OF A LIGAR BEFORE?
00:25:29.23\00:25:32.16
YOU HAVE?
00:25:32.16\00:25:33.03
OH, THEY GOT IT UP
ON THE SCREEN THERE.
00:25:33.03\00:25:34.66
A LIGAR IS A CROSS
BETWEEN A TIGER AND A LION.
00:25:34.66\00:25:39.50
I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY DON'T CALL
THEM "TIONS" BUT THEY CHOSE TO
00:25:40.96\00:25:43.13
CALL THEM "LIGARS."
00:25:43.13\00:25:45.43
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU GET WHEN
YOU CROSS A ZEBRA WITH A DONKEY?
00:25:45.43\00:25:48.60
A ZONKEY.
00:25:50.86\00:25:52.10
[LAUGHTER] ISN'T
THAT A CUTE LITTLE ZONKEY?
00:25:52.10\00:25:55.50
NOW, PASTOR ROSS
IS FROM SOUTH AFRICA.
00:25:55.50\00:25:57.46
I DON'T KNOW.
00:25:57.46\00:25:58.26
MAYBE HE'S SEEN A ZONKEY BEFORE.
00:25:58.26\00:25:59.46
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU DO WITH IT.
00:25:59.46\00:26:01.26
IT LOOKS, IT KINDA LOOKS PITIFUL
IF YOU ASK ME, BUT THEY'RE CUTE.
00:26:01.26\00:26:04.53
AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF OTHER
CREATURES THAT YOU CAN CROSS,
00:26:06.53\00:26:08.80
BUT YOU MUST DO IT
WITHIN THEIR SPECIES.
00:26:08.80\00:26:12.66
AND MATTER OF FACT, YOU CAN EVEN
CROSS A WHALE AND A DOLPHIN AND
00:26:12.66\00:26:17.63
WHAT DO YOU
SUPPOSE YOU CALL THAT?
00:26:17.63\00:26:19.73
IT'S A WHALPHIN.
00:26:19.73\00:26:21.36
IT'S TRUE.
00:26:21.36\00:26:22.16
MATTER OF FACT, IN OUR ANSWER,
WE'VE GOT A PICTURE OF ONE.
00:26:22.16\00:26:24.30
GENESIS 1:21, 24.
00:26:24.30\00:26:27.20
THAT'S A WHALPHIN.
00:26:27.20\00:26:28.83
AND IT GOES ON
TO SAY IN VERSE 24:
00:26:44.40\00:26:47.46
ACCORDING TO ITS WHAT?
00:26:52.26\00:26:53.90
KIND.
00:26:53.90\00:26:54.43
THAT MEANS SPECIES.
00:26:54.43\00:26:55.73
NOTICE, ACCORDING TO ITS KIND.
00:26:55.73\00:26:56.86
ITS KIND.
00:26:56.86\00:26:57.53
ITS KIND.
00:26:57.53\00:26:58.43
AND IT SAYS, "IT WAS SO.
00:26:58.43\00:27:00.13
CATTLE AND CREEPING THINGS
AND BEASTS OF THE EARTH, EACH
00:27:00.13\00:27:02.90
ACCORDING TO ITS KIND."
00:27:02.90\00:27:05.96
NOW YOU CAN CROSS
A LION AND A TIGER.
00:27:05.96\00:27:09.43
BUT YOU'RE NOT GONNA
CROSS A ZEBRA AND A LION.
00:27:09.43\00:27:13.56
AND YOU'RE NOT GONNA
CROSS A DOLPHIN AND A DONKEY.
00:27:13.56\00:27:19.06
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'D CALL THAT ANYWAY.
00:27:19.06\00:27:22.16
YOU CAN ONLY CROSS
THINGS WITHIN THEIR KIND.
00:27:22.16\00:27:25.53
NOW ONE, ONE OF THE
GREAT BAMBOOZLING MYTHS THAT
00:27:25.53\00:27:29.96
EVOLUTIONISTS HAVE PERPETRATED
ON PEOPLE, THEY SAY, "WE'VE GOT
00:27:29.96\00:27:32.53
SO MUCH EVIDENCE OF EVOLUTION
IN THE WORLD," AND YOU KNOW WHAT
00:27:32.53\00:27:35.06
THEY ALWAYS POINT TO?
00:27:35.06\00:27:36.10
THEY ALWAYS POINT TO SOMETHING
CALLED "MICRO-EVOLUTION."
00:27:36.10\00:27:39.03
I BELIEVE IN MICRO-EVOLUTION.
00:27:39.03\00:27:40.86
YOU BELIEVE IN MICRO-EVOLUTION.
00:27:40.86\00:27:43.16
EVERY TIME YOU LOOK AT ANY KIND
OF BREED OF DOG, YOU'RE LOOKING
00:27:43.16\00:27:45.86
AT MICRO-EVOLUTION.
00:27:45.86\00:27:47.80
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE BROWN HARE
THAT'S IN THE DESERT AND YOU
00:27:47.80\00:27:50.46
LOOK AT, I DON'T MEAN THIS KIND
OF HAIR, I MEAN THE RABBIT, AND
00:27:50.46\00:27:53.03
YOU LOOK AT THE WHITE ONE THAT'S
IN THE ARCTIC, THEY ARE BOTH
00:27:53.03\00:27:56.56
RABBITS, BUT THEY HAVE
MICRO-EVOLVED INTO DIFFERENT
00:27:56.56\00:28:00.93
STRENGTHS WITHIN THEIR
SPECIES, FOR THEIR ENVIRONMENT.
00:28:00.93\00:28:04.60
BUT YOU DON'T HAVE A
RABBIT EVOLVING INTO A CAT.
00:28:04.60\00:28:08.13
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE.
00:28:08.13\00:28:09.63
THERE IS NOT A SINGLE, SOLITARY
EXAMPLE OF EVIDENCE OF EVOLUTION
00:28:09.63\00:28:13.86
BETWEEN SPECIES.
00:28:13.86\00:28:16.00
THAT'S WHAT GOD SAID.
00:28:16.00\00:28:17.10
"EACH ACCORDING TO THEIR KIND."
00:28:17.10\00:28:19.76
AND YET THEY HOLD FORTH,
THEY SAY, "LOOK, THIS BUTTERFLY
00:28:19.76\00:28:22.53
HAS GONE FROM BEING GRAY TO
BLACK BECAUSE IT'S LANDING ON
00:28:22.53\00:28:25.60
BLACK TREES AND
BECAUSE OF SELECTIVE BREEDING."
00:28:25.60\00:28:29.06
WELL, THEY'RE STILL MOTHS.
00:28:29.06\00:28:31.06
THEY'RE STILL BUTTERFLIES.
00:28:31.06\00:28:33.70
YOU KNOW, I HEARD, MATTER
OF FACT, IT WAS ON THE COVER OF
00:28:33.70\00:28:35.33
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAGAZINE.
00:28:35.33\00:28:36.83
THE ARTICLE, I DON'T REMEMBER
THE YEAR, YOU CAN LOOK IT UP; IT
00:28:36.83\00:28:39.50
WAS CALLED "FROM WOLF TO
WOOF," LIKE "WOOF WOOF," A DOG?
00:28:39.50\00:28:44.46
AND IT SHOWED A WOLF ON THE
COVER AND SOME LITTLE POODLE OR
00:28:44.46\00:28:47.70
SOMETHING.
00:28:47.70\00:28:48.40
I DON'T REMEMBER.
00:28:48.40\00:28:49.46
AND THEY SAID THAT THEY HAVE NOW
TRACKED THE D.N.A. OF ALL THE
00:28:49.46\00:28:52.50
DOGS AND THEY CAN TRACE ALL THE
DOGS IN THE WORLD, ALL THESE.
00:28:52.50\00:28:56.26
REALLY, LOOK AT ALL
THE DIFFERENCE IN DOGS.
00:28:56.26\00:28:57.86
YOU GOT THOSE LITTLE, LITTLE
WIENER DOGS, DACHSHUNDS, AND
00:28:57.86\00:29:00.73
THEN YOU GOT THE CHIHUAHUAS
AND YOU GOT THESE GREAT BIG
00:29:00.73\00:29:03.20
GREAT DANES AND THEN YOU GOT
THE DOGS THAT ARE COVERED WITH
00:29:03.20\00:29:05.20
WRINKLES AND A LOT OF
DOG NAMES YOU CAN'T EVEN SAY.
00:29:05.20\00:29:09.16
THEY GOT SOME POOR
DOG THAT'S A HAIRLESS DOG.
00:29:09.16\00:29:12.73
LITTLE HAIRLESS CHIHUAHUA.
00:29:12.73\00:29:14.43
I THINK THAT'S MEAN TO DO
SOMETHING LIKE THAT, TO BREED
00:29:14.43\00:29:17.06
THAT.
00:29:17.06\00:29:17.66
[LAUGHTER] AND
ALL... THEY SHIVER ALL THE
00:29:17.66\00:29:19.66
TIME.
00:29:19.66\00:29:20.46
YOU SEEN THEM?
00:29:20.46\00:29:21.70
THEY ALWAYS LOOK
SCARED AND THEY'RE SHIVERING.
00:29:21.70\00:29:25.00
ALL OF THOSE DOGS, THEY SAY
THEY CAN BE TRACED BACK TO TWO
00:29:25.00\00:29:28.10
WOLF-LIKE DOGS.
00:29:28.10\00:29:30.40
SO WHEN NOAH GOT ON THE BOAT,
DID HE HAVE TO TAKE A BEAGLE AND
00:29:31.30\00:29:35.23
A GERMAN SHEPHERD AND A HUSKY
AND A DALMATIAN AND ALL THESE --
00:29:35.23\00:29:40.33
NO.
00:29:40.33\00:29:40.93
ALL OF THE DIVERSITY THAT YOU
FIND WITHIN DOGS WAS IN THOSE
00:29:40.93\00:29:43.80
ORIGINAL DOGS.
00:29:43.80\00:29:45.26
LOOK AT ALL THE DIVERSITY OF
PEOPLE YOU FIND IN THE WORLD.
00:29:45.26\00:29:48.03
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:29:48.03\00:29:48.73
PEOPLE CAN CROSS-BREED
WITH PEOPLE, BECAUSE WE'RE ALL
00:29:48.73\00:29:53.56
RELATED.
00:29:53.56\00:29:54.53
WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME KIND.
00:29:54.53\00:29:56.16
BUT LOOK AT ALL THE
VARIATION THAT YOU'VE GOT.
00:29:56.16\00:29:59.30
SO SURE, YOU CAN SEE
MICRO-EVOLUTION THERE.
00:29:59.30\00:30:02.03
BUT WE'RE ALL HUMANS.
00:30:02.03\00:30:03.70
SEE WHAT I'M SAYING?
00:30:03.70\00:30:05.40
AND SO IT'S A SCHEME REALLY
TO CONFUSE PEOPLE BY THAT.
00:30:05.40\00:30:10.63
ALL RIGHT.
00:30:10.63\00:30:11.86
LET'S MOVE ALONG HERE.
00:30:11.86\00:30:12.83
QUESTION NUMBER THREE:
00:30:12.83\00:30:15.30
ANSWER: GENESIS 2:7.
00:30:22.06\00:30:25.03
AND MAN BECAME A LIVING SOUL.
00:30:34.20\00:30:37.16
NOW, YOU AND I CAN TAKE DUST AND
PARTICLES AND WE CAN'T MAKE IT
00:30:37.16\00:30:42.00
ALIVE.
00:30:42.00\00:30:43.90
AND NEITHER CAN CHANCE.
00:30:43.90\00:30:46.43
LET ME, I WANT TO...
00:30:48.60\00:30:50.13
I NEED A COUPLE OF VOLUNTEERS.
00:30:50.13\00:30:53.13
OKAY.
00:30:53.13\00:30:55.80
WELL, YOU'RE IN THE PINK.
00:30:55.80\00:30:56.53
YOU'RE EASY TO SPOT.
00:30:56.53\00:30:57.50
WHY DON'T YOU COME UP, IF
YOU CAN GET HERE REAL QUICK.
00:30:57.50\00:30:59.46
I KNOW I GOT ONE GUY.
00:30:59.46\00:31:00.46
GOT A GIRL
SOMEWHERE, RIGHT HERE.
00:31:00.46\00:31:02.03
CAN YOU GET OUT?
00:31:02.03\00:31:02.53
WILL YOUR FRIENDS
LET YOU OUT REAL QUICK?
00:31:02.53\00:31:03.80
WHILE THEY'RE COMING I'VE GOT TO
GRAB SOME OF MY IMPORTANT STUFF
00:31:03.80\00:31:08.56
HERE.
00:31:08.56\00:31:10.10
OKAY?
00:31:11.56\00:31:13.03
ALL RIGHT.
00:31:14.36\00:31:14.76
YOU WANT TO HOLD THAT FOR ME?
00:31:14.76\00:31:16.23
ALL RIGHT.
00:31:16.23\00:31:16.93
WHAT YOU'VE GOT THERE IS YOU'VE
GOT A BOTTLE OF LAKE WATER.
00:31:16.93\00:31:20.73
IT'S GOT ALGAE AND
ALL KINDS OF BIOLOGIC...
00:31:20.73\00:31:22.63
DON'T DRINK THAT.
00:31:22.63\00:31:24.10
[LAUGHTER] ALL RIGHT?
00:31:24.10\00:31:26.70
NOW, WE'RE GONNA TRY TO MAKE
LIFE RIGHT HERE ON THE PROGRAM.
00:31:26.70\00:31:31.06
HERE'S SOME PEANUT BUTTER.
00:31:31.06\00:31:32.00
YOU NEED PROTEIN.
00:31:32.00\00:31:33.46
SO IF YOU COULD OPEN THAT UP AND
PUT SOME PEANUT BUTTER IN THE
00:31:33.46\00:31:35.80
JAR.
00:31:35.80\00:31:36.26
YOU CAN TAKE THE LID OFF THAT.
00:31:36.26\00:31:38.76
DID I MENTION, DON'T DRINK IT?
00:31:38.76\00:31:39.93
OH, THAT'S HONEY.
00:31:39.93\00:31:42.26
WELL, LET'S, WE NEED
SOME SUCROSE IN THERE TOO.
00:31:42.26\00:31:45.23
SO HERE, WHY
DON'T HOLD THAT FOR HER.
00:31:45.23\00:31:46.60
JUST DON'T GET IT ON THE STAGE
OR I'LL GET STUCK LIKE A FLY AND
00:31:46.60\00:31:48.80
I WON'T BE ABLE TO MOVE.
00:31:48.80\00:31:49.86
OKAY.
00:31:49.86\00:31:51.96
HONEY AND PEANUT BUTTER.
00:31:51.96\00:31:53.20
THAT OUGHTTA MAKE
LIFE, DON'T YOU THINK?
00:31:53.20\00:31:55.63
OKAY.
00:31:55.63\00:31:56.63
ALL RIGHT.
00:31:56.63\00:31:59.13
NO, I JUST WON'T STAND THERE.
00:31:59.13\00:32:01.23
ALL RIGHT.
00:32:01.23\00:32:03.70
AND HERE'S...
00:32:03.70\00:32:06.46
YOU CAN PUT
THAT BACK IN THE BAG.
00:32:06.46\00:32:09.03
AND HERE, WE DON'T WANT TO MAKE
YOU -- PUT SOME PEANUT BUTTER IN
00:32:09.03\00:32:12.60
THERE.
00:32:12.60\00:32:14.50
AND WE ALREADY GOT
OUR SUCROSE IN THERE.
00:32:14.50\00:32:16.63
WE DON'T WANT THIS TO BE
FAT BACTERIUM, SO WE'VE ALSO GOT
00:32:16.63\00:32:18.83
SOME NUTRASWEET.
00:32:18.83\00:32:20.06
WE WANT TO THANK OUR
HOTEL LOCALLY FOR PROVIDING THE
00:32:20.06\00:32:22.43
INGREDIENTS TO CREATE LIFE.
00:32:22.43\00:32:23.80
[LAUGHTER] THAT'S
PROBABLY ENOUGH FOR OUR
00:32:23.80\00:32:28.60
EXPERIMENT.
00:32:28.60\00:32:30.06
YEAH, YOU CAN -- YEAH,
WELL YOU'LL SHAKE IT IN JUST A
00:32:30.06\00:32:32.20
MINUTE.
00:32:32.20\00:32:32.56
WE'RE GONNA PUT THE LID ON,
WE'RE GONNA SHAKE IT UNTIL WE
00:32:32.56\00:32:34.23
GET LIFE.
00:32:34.23\00:32:35.40
[LAUGHTER] SO, WHY
DON'T YOU OPEN THAT UP
00:32:35.40\00:32:37.33
AND PUT SOME OF THAT IN THERE.
00:32:37.33\00:32:40.03
OH.
00:32:40.03\00:32:40.76
THE MOST IMPORTANT INGREDIENT
IS IN THE BOTTOM HERE.
00:32:40.76\00:32:43.06
I'M GONNA BE LICKING MY
FINGERS THROUGH THE REST OF THE
00:32:45.40\00:32:47.63
PRESENTATION HERE.
00:32:47.63\00:32:49.30
OH COME ON.
00:32:51.80\00:32:53.50
THERE WE GO.
00:32:53.50\00:32:54.23
YOU NEED ELECTRICITY.
00:32:54.23\00:32:55.40
THIS IS TO
SIMULATE THE LIGHTENING.
00:32:55.40\00:32:56.80
SO WHY DON'T YOU PUT
THAT STICKY BATTERY IN THERE.
00:32:56.80\00:32:59.23
[LAUGHTER] OKAY, PUT THE LID ON.
00:32:59.23\00:33:02.46
THERE WE GO.
00:33:02.46\00:33:03.40
YEAH.
00:33:03.40\00:33:04.56
NOW YOU CAN SHAKE IT.
00:33:04.56\00:33:07.73
HERE, GIVE IT A GOOD SHAKING.
00:33:07.73\00:33:08.43
WE'RE GONNA MAKE LIFE HERE.
00:33:08.43\00:33:10.93
>> BOY: I DON'T THINK SO.
00:33:10.93\00:33:12.30
>> HOW LONG DO
YOU THINK WE NEED?
00:33:12.30\00:33:14.73
WE GOT ELECTRICITY IN THERE, WE
GOT ALL THE INGREDIENTS THAT ARE
00:33:14.73\00:33:17.26
NECESSARY.
00:33:17.26\00:33:19.43
>> IT'S NOT WORKING.
00:33:19.43\00:33:21.20
>> NOW, I WANT YOU TO THINK
ABOUT HOW ABSURD IT IS, HOW MANY
00:33:21.20\00:33:24.80
MILLIONS OF YEARS DO
WE NEED TO SHAKE THAT?
00:33:24.80\00:33:27.63
HOW MANY BILLIONS OF YEARS...
00:33:29.53\00:33:31.43
BEFORE WE GET SOME LIFE?
00:33:31.43\00:33:32.96
THERE'S PROBABLY SOME SINGLE
CELLS IN THERE RIGHT NOW, BUT IT
00:33:32.96\00:33:34.86
IS EVER GOING
TO PRODUCE A HUMAN?
00:33:34.86\00:33:37.46
NO.
00:33:37.46\00:33:38.83
I JUST WANTED TO ILLUSTRATE THIS
TO SHOW YOU HOW ABSURD IT IS TO
00:33:38.83\00:33:41.90
SAY THAT SOME KIND OF
COMBINATION, ANY COMBINATION OF
00:33:41.90\00:33:44.90
SLUDGE YOU WANT.
00:33:44.90\00:33:45.70
LOOK AT ALL THE SOPHISTICATED
LABORATORIES THAT DOCTORS HAVE
00:33:45.70\00:33:49.40
TODAY...
00:33:49.40\00:33:50.33
[LAUGHTER] YOU
BETTER GIVE THAT BACK TO ME
00:33:50.33\00:33:52.23
IN CASE YOU'RE TEMPTED.
00:33:52.23\00:33:53.26
[LAUGHTER] THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
00:33:53.26\00:33:55.73
LET'S GIVE THEM A HAND.
00:33:55.73\00:33:56.63
THANK THEM FOR
THEIR HELP WITH THAT.
00:33:56.63\00:33:59.26
[APPLAUSE] WITH ALL
OF THE SOPHISTICATED
00:33:59.26\00:34:06.26
LABORATORIES THAT THEY HAVE
TODAY, I MEAN, WE'RE JUST DOING
00:34:06.26\00:34:09.33
A REALLY SILLY EXPERIMENT.
00:34:09.33\00:34:11.23
HAVE THEY BEEN ABLE TO
CREATE LIFE FROM NON-LIFE?
00:34:11.23\00:34:15.70
NO.
00:34:15.70\00:34:16.90
THEY CAN TRY AND RECREATE
ALL THE ENVIRONMENTS AND ALL THE
00:34:16.90\00:34:19.96
INGREDIENTS AND THEY HAVEN'T
BEEN ABLE TO CREATE A SINGLE
00:34:19.96\00:34:22.56
CELL, AND YET THEY SAY THE WORLD
WAS FILLED WITH THESE LIVING
00:34:22.56\00:34:25.93
CREATURES.
00:34:25.93\00:34:26.73
AND YOU KNOW WHAT, YOU KNOW
WHAT'S ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING
00:34:26.73\00:34:29.56
THINGS TO ME -- WE
JUST READ ABOUT GOD CREATING
00:34:29.56\00:34:33.40
MALE AND FEMALE IN
THE BEGINNING -- IS SEX.
00:34:33.40\00:34:37.70
CAN I HAVE A VOLUNTEER?
00:34:37.70\00:34:39.76
NO, I'M JUST KIDDING.
00:34:39.76\00:34:40.60
I'M JUST KIDDING.
00:34:40.60\00:34:41.63
[LAUGHTER] BUT I
KNEW I'D GET YOUR
00:34:41.63\00:34:44.26
ATTENTION.
00:34:44.26\00:34:45.33
NO, I'M REALLY SERIOUS.
00:34:45.33\00:34:46.60
I'M REALLY SERIOUS IN THAT
-- THINK ABOUT, THINK ABOUT THIS
00:34:46.60\00:34:51.80
FOR A SECOND.
00:34:51.80\00:34:53.46
YOU'VE GOT TWO CELLS.
00:34:53.46\00:34:55.30
WHAT'S THE MOST EFFICIENT
WAY FOR A CELL TO REPRODUCE?
00:34:55.30\00:34:59.86
WELL, YOU GOT ONE CELL AND IT'S
GONNA, HOW DID THE EARLY CELLS,
00:34:59.86\00:35:04.33
AND THEY STILL DO IT
TODAY, HOW DO THEY REPRODUCE?
00:35:04.33\00:35:07.16
THEY JUST GO...
00:35:07.16\00:35:08.20
THEY SPLIT.
00:35:08.20\00:35:08.93
NOW YOU GOT TWO.
00:35:08.93\00:35:09.93
AND WHEN THIS ONE WANTS TO START
A FAMILY, IT DOESN'T NEED THIS
00:35:09.93\00:35:11.80
ONE; IT JUST SPLITS.
00:35:11.80\00:35:14.53
YOU GOT ANOTHER
SINGLE CELL OF LIFE.
00:35:14.53\00:35:16.63
WHAT IN THE EVOLUTIONARY SCHEME
WOULD EVER CREATE THE NEED OF
00:35:16.63\00:35:22.43
TWO OPPOSITE GENDERS, THAT
00:35:22.43\00:35:25.16
CANNOT PROCREATE
WITHOUT A COOPERATIVE ACT?
00:35:25.20\00:35:29.60
ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
00:35:31.60\00:35:32.83
GOD SAID HE MADE THEM MALE AND
00:35:32.83\00:35:34.03
FEMALE, AFTER THEIR KIND.
00:35:34.06\00:35:36.53
THERE'S NO, THEY HAVE NO
EXPLANATION AND I'VE TALKED TO
00:35:36.53\00:35:39.06
EVOLUTIONISTS ABOUT THAT BEFORE
AND THEY SAID, "IT'S A PROBLEM."
00:35:39.06\00:35:43.76
THAT'S THEIR ANSWER.
00:35:43.76\00:35:44.66
"IT'S A PROBLEM."
00:35:44.66\00:35:45.80
YOU BET IT'S A PROBLEM.
00:35:45.80\00:35:46.76
THERE'S A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH
THE THEORY, BUT THEY WANT TO GET
00:35:46.76\00:35:49.43
RID OF GOD.
00:35:49.43\00:35:51.50
ALL RIGHT.
00:35:51.50\00:35:52.06
WE'RE GOING TO GO TO...
00:35:52.06\00:35:53.06
OH, THEY'RE TELLING ME WE GOT
A TEXT QUESTION THAT CAME IN.
00:35:53.06\00:35:55.90
ALL RIGHT.
00:35:55.90\00:35:57.30
LET'S SEE WHAT WE HAVE HERE.
00:35:57.30\00:35:58.90
WELL, THERE'S A COMBINATION OF
THINGS FOR WHY YOU ARE THE WAY
00:36:09.46\00:36:13.20
YOU ARE.
00:36:13.20\00:36:13.73
FIRST OF ALL, THE LORD BLESSES
EVERY PERSON WITH A PURPOSE.
00:36:13.73\00:36:18.80
BUT THE, OBVIOUSLY,
YOUR GENETICS HAVE A ROLE.
00:36:18.80\00:36:22.76
YOUR ANCESTRY HAS A ROLE AND
GOD USES THAT FOR YOU TO FULFILL
00:36:22.76\00:36:27.46
YOUR PURPOSE WHEN YOU
TRUST YOUR LIFE TO HIM.
00:36:27.46\00:36:30.00
NOW I MIGHT ASK THE QUESTION, I
HAD A BROTHER THAT WAS BORN WITH
00:36:30.00\00:36:33.46
CYSTIC FIBROSIS.
00:36:33.46\00:36:36.00
IF GOD IS GOOD...
00:36:36.00\00:36:38.26
WHY WAS I BORN -- MY BROTHER
USED TO SAY, "DOUG, LIFE IS NOT
00:36:38.26\00:36:40.86
FAIR."
00:36:40.86\00:36:41.63
HE SAID, "YOU'RE SO HEALTHY AND
YOU'RE SO DUMB, AND I'M SMART
00:36:41.63\00:36:43.60
AND I'M SICK."
00:36:43.60\00:36:45.03
[LAUGHTER] IT'S PROBABLY RIGHT.
00:36:45.03\00:36:48.23
HE WAS VERY BRIGHT.
00:36:48.23\00:36:49.46
BUT MY BROTHER'S
PASSED AWAY FROM HIS DISEASE.
00:36:49.46\00:36:52.30
AND YOU MIGHT SAY, "WHY
DID GOD MAKE HIM THAT WAY?"
00:36:52.30\00:36:54.80
WELL, GOD DIDN'T
MAKE SICKNESS AND DISEASE.
00:36:54.80\00:36:56.70
THAT CAME AS A RESULT OF SIN.
00:36:56.70\00:36:58.96
AND WE'RE GONNA TALK MORE ABOUT
THAT IN ANOTHER PRESENTATION.
00:36:58.96\00:37:02.10
QUESTION FOUR:
00:37:02.10\00:37:04.16
WHEN YOU READ THE
ANSWER, GENESIS 1:27:
00:37:10.93\00:37:14.23
MAN WAS NOT MADE
LIKE THE OTHER CREATURES.
00:37:24.70\00:37:26.53
GOD SPOKE THE OTHER CREATURES
INTO EXISTENCE, BUT WHEN GOD
00:37:26.53\00:37:29.03
MADE MAN, HE PULLED HIM
TOGETHER WITH HIS OWN HANDS.
00:37:29.03\00:37:33.90
MADE HIM IN HIS OWN IMAGE.
00:37:33.90\00:37:35.70
AND ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE, WHEN
IT DESCRIBES THE NATURE OF GOD,
00:37:35.70\00:37:38.63
GOD IS DESCRIBED AS
HAVING A FORM LIKE US.
00:37:38.63\00:37:42.53
OR WE'RE REALLY LIKE HIM.
00:37:42.53\00:37:43.86
HE HAS EYES, HE HAS HAIR, HE
HAS HANDS, HE HAS FEET, HE HAS A
00:37:43.86\00:37:46.83
TORSO.
00:37:46.83\00:37:47.63
GOD...
00:37:47.63\00:37:49.36
BASICALLY
CREATED US IN HIS IMAGE.
00:37:49.36\00:37:51.36
WE WERE TO BE THE
RULERS OF THIS WORLD.
00:37:51.36\00:37:54.70
MAN WAS GIVEN DOMINION OF THIS
WORLD, AND THAT'S OBVIOUS FROM
00:37:54.70\00:37:57.93
WHAT YOU CAN SEE TODAY.
00:37:57.93\00:37:59.70
YOU KNOW, I JUST
REMEMBERED A STORY.
00:37:59.70\00:38:01.83
THERE WAS A MAN LOOKING FOR WORK
AND HE WAS FLIPPING THROUGH THE
00:38:01.83\00:38:04.53
ADS IN THE PAPER AND HE SAW
THAT THE ZOO, THE CITY ZOO, WAS
00:38:04.53\00:38:08.06
LOOKING FOR AN EMPLOYEE.
00:38:08.06\00:38:09.93
SO HE WENT AND
APPLIED FOR THE JOB.
00:38:09.93\00:38:11.80
AND THEY SAID, "WELL, THE JOB
INVOLVES YOUR DRESSING UP IN A
00:38:11.80\00:38:14.90
GORILLA SUIT AND GOING
INTO THE GORILLA CAGE."
00:38:14.90\00:38:17.80
HE SAID, "WHAT?"
00:38:17.80\00:38:18.30
HE SAID, "NO I'M
NOT GONNA DO THAT."
00:38:18.30\00:38:19.76
AND THEY SAID, "WELL, YOU KNOW,
OUR MOST IMPORTANT ATTRACTION IS
00:38:19.76\00:38:22.10
A GORILLA AND IT DIED.
00:38:22.10\00:38:23.96
WE DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW
THAT BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO
00:38:23.96\00:38:25.86
STOP COMING.
00:38:25.86\00:38:27.00
AND UNTIL WE CAN GET ANOTHER
GORILLA, WE NEED SOMEONE JUST TO
00:38:27.00\00:38:28.96
FILL IN."
00:38:28.96\00:38:30.13
THEY SAID, "LOOK, THE D.N.A.
00:38:30.13\00:38:31.90
BETWEEN HUMANS AND
GORILLA, VERY SIMILAR.
00:38:31.90\00:38:34.20
YOU'LL BE A NATURAL.
00:38:34.20\00:38:35.06
WE GOT THIS VERY REALISTIC SUIT.
00:38:35.06\00:38:36.60
IT'S COMFORTABLE.
00:38:36.60\00:38:38.00
YOU JUST GOTTA GO OUT THERE
AND JUST WALK AROUND AND GRUNT A
00:38:38.00\00:38:40.06
LITTLE BIT.
00:38:40.06\00:38:40.56
THE PEOPLE WILL COME, THEY
WON'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE."
00:38:40.56\00:38:42.96
WELL, THE JOB PAID WELL, SO THE
GUY SAID, "ALL RIGHT, WELL I'LL
00:38:42.96\00:38:46.43
TRY IT."
00:38:46.43\00:38:47.83
SO HE GOT OUT THERE
AND AT FIRST HE SAT THERE.
00:38:47.83\00:38:49.43
HE FELT A LITTLE SELF-CONSCIOUS.
00:38:49.43\00:38:50.26
BUT PRETTY SOON, HE SAW SOME
PEOPLE GATHERED AND SO HE KIND
00:38:50.26\00:38:52.36
OF WALKED AROUND
AND MORE PEOPLE CAME.
00:38:52.36\00:38:53.83
AND THE KIDS WERE POINTING, AND
THEY GO, "OH, LOOK, LOOK, LOOK,"
00:38:53.83\00:38:55.46
AND SO HE... HE
STARTED GETTING INTO IT.
00:38:55.46\00:38:57.56
SO HE'S WALKING AROUND ON HIS
KNUCKLES AND PRETTY SOON HE GOT
00:38:57.56\00:38:59.60
UP AND HE BEAT ON HIS CHEST
AND OH, A BIG CROWD CAME OVER.
00:38:59.60\00:39:02.43
AND HE THOUGHT,
"OH, THIS IS PRETTY GOOD.
00:39:02.43\00:39:04.03
I LIKE THIS."
00:39:04.03\00:39:04.70
HE LIKED THE ATTENTION.
00:39:04.70\00:39:05.96
AND THEY HAD A CONCRETE TREE
THERE AND SO HE STARTED HANGING
00:39:05.96\00:39:09.03
ON THE TREE, AND THEY'RE
LOOKING, AND BIG CROWDS ARE
00:39:09.03\00:39:11.13
GATHERING.
00:39:11.13\00:39:11.50
HE SAID, "I CAN CLIMB THE TREE.
00:39:11.50\00:39:12.26
I CAN CLIMB."
00:39:12.26\00:39:13.03
SO HE CLIMBED UP THE TREE AND HE
WAS GETTING SO CARRIED AWAY WITH
00:39:13.03\00:39:15.26
THE GORILLA THING THAT HE TRIED
TO SWING FROM ONE BRANCH TO
00:39:15.26\00:39:18.80
ANOTHER IN THIS CONCRETE TREE.
00:39:18.80\00:39:21.43
AND HE FELL...
00:39:21.43\00:39:23.23
INTO THE LION'S CAGE.
00:39:23.23\00:39:24.86
>> AUDIENCE: AH...
00:39:24.86\00:39:26.33
>> AND NATURALLY, HE SAW THAT
AND HE YELLED, AND THE LION RAN
00:39:26.33\00:39:30.43
OVER TO HIM AND SAID, "BE QUIET
OR YOU'RE GONNA GET US BOTH
00:39:30.43\00:39:33.53
FIRED! " [LAUGHTER]
00:39:33.53\00:39:41.50
ALL RIGHT.
00:39:41.50\00:39:43.63
MAN WAS MADE IN
THE IMAGE OF GOD.
00:39:43.63\00:39:46.50
LET ME GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT
OF INFORMATION THAT MAY HELP.
00:39:46.50\00:39:50.73
ONE REASON THE THEORY OF
EVOLUTION TOOK HOLD, BACK DURING
00:39:50.73\00:39:54.46
THE DAYS OF DARWIN, WHEN DARWIN
WAS DEVELOPING HIS HYPOTHESIS OF
00:39:54.46\00:39:59.83
THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES...
00:39:59.83\00:40:02.86
THE MICROSCOPES
WERE VERY PRIMITIVE.
00:40:02.86\00:40:06.33
DO YOU KNOW BEFORE THE
TIME OF DARWIN, THEY BELIEVED IN
00:40:06.33\00:40:08.00
SOMETHING CALLED
"SPONTANEOUS GENERATION"?
00:40:08.00\00:40:11.00
THEY REALLY BELIEVED BACK THEN
THAT LIFE GREW OUT OF NOTHING.
00:40:11.00\00:40:15.00
THEY THOUGHT, FOR INSTANCE, IF
YOU HAD OLD MEAT THAT WAS JUST
00:40:15.00\00:40:17.73
SITTING OUT THERE, KIND OF
DECOMPOSING, WORMS AND MAGGOTS
00:40:17.73\00:40:20.26
BEGAN TO APPEAR
AND CRAWL OUT OF IT.
00:40:20.26\00:40:22.60
THEY SAID, "LIFE IS
JUST COMING OUT OF THE MEAT."
00:40:22.60\00:40:24.80
YOU LEFT SOME OLD STRAWBERRIES
SITTING ON THE COUNTER.
00:40:24.80\00:40:26.90
ALL THESE -- THIS
MOLD BEGAN TO GROW OUT OF
00:40:26.90\00:40:29.36
IT.
00:40:29.36\00:40:29.96
AND THEY SAID, "LIFE
JUST COMES OUT OF THINGS."
00:40:29.96\00:40:31.53
IT'S CALLED,
SPONTANEOUS GENERATION.
00:40:31.53\00:40:34.76
THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE
WERE THINKING BACK THEN.
00:40:34.76\00:40:36.20
LOUIS PASTEUR SAID CAME
ALONG AND SAID, "UH, NO.
00:40:36.20\00:40:38.73
IF YOU PUT THAT MEAT IN A SEALED
ENVIRONMENT AND FLIES CAN'T LAY
00:40:38.73\00:40:41.60
EGGS ON IT, YOU'RE
NOT GONNA SEE ANY MAGGOTS.
00:40:41.60\00:40:44.16
IF YOU PUT THAT STRAWBERRY
INSIDE A JAR, AND NO SEEDS FROM
00:40:44.16\00:40:49.83
THE FUNGUS LAND ON IT,
YOU'RE NOT GONNA SEE IT SPRING."
00:40:49.83\00:40:54.33
AND SO IT SORT
OF DESTROYED THAT.
00:40:54.33\00:40:55.93
AND BACK WHEN
DARWIN WROTE HIS THEORY --
00:40:55.93\00:40:58.16
OH, WHEN THEY LOOKED AT THE CELL
IT WAS JUST A LITTLE BLOB OF
00:40:58.16\00:41:01.23
PROTOPLASM, AND THEY SAID,
"WELL, THAT MIGHT EVOLVE; IT
00:41:01.23\00:41:03.80
DOESN'T LOOK TOO COMPLICATED."
00:41:03.80\00:41:05.96
WELL, YOU KNOW
WHAT THEY KNOW NOW?
00:41:05.96\00:41:08.16
THEY'VE DONE RESEARCH, AND
A SINGLE CELL OF LIFE IS MORE
00:41:08.16\00:41:12.10
COMPLEX THAN NEW YORK CITY
-- ONE SINGLE CELL OF LIFE --
00:41:12.10\00:41:18.03
MORE COMPLEX THAN NEW
YORK CITY AT RUSH HOUR.
00:41:18.03\00:41:20.96
THINK FOR A MINUTE ABOUT ALL
THAT WOULD BE HAPPENING IN NEW
00:41:20.96\00:41:24.23
YORK CITY AT RUSH HOUR.
00:41:24.23\00:41:25.63
THE SUBWAYS AND THE TRAFFIC, AND
THE PHONE LINES AND THE PLUMBING
00:41:25.63\00:41:28.53
AND THE ACTIVITY...
00:41:28.53\00:41:30.53
THE ELEVATORS GOING.
00:41:30.53\00:41:31.73
ONE SINGLE CELL OF LIFE HAS MORE
MACHINERY AND MORE PROCESSES
00:41:31.73\00:41:35.73
GOING ON, BECAUSE NOW WE CAN
LOOK WITH THESE FANTASTICALLY
00:41:35.73\00:41:39.00
POWERFUL ELECTRON MICROSCOPES.
00:41:39.00\00:41:41.43
THE IDEA THAT THAT COULD COME
BY ACCIDENT: HOW ABSURD IS THAT?
00:41:41.43\00:41:46.50
IF YOU'RE WALKING ALONG IN
THE DESERT, AND YOU SEE A ROCK
00:41:47.56\00:41:51.40
STICKING OUT OF THE SAND...
00:41:51.40\00:41:52.56
YOU MIGHT THINK, "OH, LOOK
AT THAT ROCK MAY HAVE BEEN HERE
00:41:52.56\00:41:54.56
FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS."
00:41:54.56\00:41:55.60
YOU MIGHT SIT ON IT,
REST, TAKE A DRINK OF WATER.
00:41:55.60\00:41:57.50
THEN YOU RESUME YOUR WALK
AND PRETTY SOON YOU COME UP TO A
00:41:57.50\00:42:02.13
LAPTOP COMPUTER.
00:42:02.13\00:42:04.66
YOU WOULD NEVER SAY TO YOURSELF,
"WELL, I WONDER HOW LONG IT TOOK
00:42:04.66\00:42:07.90
FOR THAT TO COME
UP OUT OF THE DESERT."
00:42:07.90\00:42:10.30
WOULD YOU EVER SAY THAT?
00:42:10.30\00:42:11.96
THINK ABOUT HOW MANY PROCESSES
IT PERFORMS AND ALL THE PROGRAMS
00:42:11.96\00:42:15.16
IT RUNS AND ALL THE FEATURES IT
HAS AND ALL THAT IT DOES AND THE
00:42:15.16\00:42:17.80
DESIGN AND THE SHAPE.
00:42:17.80\00:42:18.76
DO YOU KNOW -- IF A MAN IS
WALKING ALONG A TRAIL IN THE
00:42:18.76\00:42:20.73
DESERT, AND HE FINDS FIVE STONES
STACKED ON TOP OF EACH OTHER,
00:42:20.73\00:42:24.30
HE'LL STOP RIGHT THERE AT THOSE
STONES AND SAY, "SOMEBODY WAS
00:42:24.30\00:42:27.06
HERE."
00:42:27.06\00:42:29.43
THOSE FIVE ROCKS STACKED UP
MEANS A TRAIL HAS BEEN MARKED.
00:42:29.43\00:42:32.66
THERE'S BEEN SOME
INTELLIGENCE HERE.
00:42:32.66\00:42:35.00
THINK ABOUT HOW CRAZY IT IS FOR
US TO LOOK AT ALL THE DESIGN AND
00:42:35.00\00:42:38.30
ORGANIZATION AND SYSTEMS IN THE
WORLD TODAY AND SAY, "HEY, IT
00:42:38.30\00:42:41.36
JUST KINDA TOOK A LONG,
LONG TIME; IT JUST HAPPENED BY
00:42:41.36\00:42:43.63
ACCIDENT."
00:42:43.63\00:42:46.03
I BEGAN TO ASK THOSE QUESTIONS,
I SAID, "SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT."
00:42:46.03\00:42:48.83
THERE IS A CONSPIRACY TO
MESMERIZE A GENERATION INTO
00:42:48.83\00:42:54.43
THINKING THAT THEY'RE JUST
GORILLAS, THAT THEY'VE JUST
00:42:54.43\00:42:58.00
EVOLVED.
00:42:58.00\00:42:59.36
IT'S NOT TRUE.
00:42:59.36\00:43:01.86
ALRIGHT, BACK TO OUR LESSON.
00:43:01.86\00:43:03.63
QUESTION NUMBER FIVE:
00:43:03.63\00:43:05.06
YOU CAN FIND THE ANSWER
TO THIS IN EXODUS 20:11.
00:43:12.96\00:43:16.86
THIS HAPPENS TO BE
ALSO THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT.
00:43:18.03\00:43:20.93
HOW MANY DAYS?
00:43:34.83\00:43:36.76
SIX DAYS OF CREATION.
00:43:36.76\00:43:37.70
WELL, IF YOU WANNA COUNT THE
SABBATH, HE ALSO MADE ANOTHER
00:43:37.70\00:43:39.83
DAY THAT INCORPORATED TIME.
00:43:39.83\00:43:41.63
SO LET'S SAY SEVEN DAYS.
00:43:41.63\00:43:42.80
ANYTHING THAT YOU READ THERE
THAT WOULD MAKE YOU THINK THOSE
00:43:42.80\00:43:45.26
SEVEN DAYS --
"REALLY THERE'S A SPIRITUAL
00:43:45.26\00:43:47.13
MEANING TO THAT.
00:43:47.13\00:43:48.03
IT REALLY MEANS 7,000 YEARS."
00:43:48.03\00:43:50.83
OR "IT REALLY MEANS 700,000
YEARS" OR 7,000,000 YEARS OR
00:43:50.83\00:43:56.23
700,000,000 YEARS, OR
FOUR BILLION YEARS OR...
00:43:56.23\00:43:59.06
WOULDN'T YOU HAVE TO SORT OF
TORTURE THE TEXT TO MAKE IT SAY
00:43:59.06\00:44:01.96
THAT?
00:44:01.96\00:44:03.86
IF YOU READ IT
THE WAY IT SPEAKS.
00:44:03.86\00:44:06.70
BY THE WAY, YOU LOOK AROUND THE
WORLD TODAY AND IT'S VERY CLEAR.
00:44:06.70\00:44:10.46
WE DON'T HAVE ANY WRITTEN
HISTORY THAT GOES BACK BEYOND
00:44:10.46\00:44:12.66
4,000 YEARS.
00:44:12.66\00:44:14.20
IT'S LIKE SUDDENLY MAN
WENT THROUGH THIS EXPLOSION OF
00:44:14.20\00:44:17.40
INTELLIGENCE AND CIVILIZATION.
00:44:17.40\00:44:19.03
HE GOES FROM DRAGGING AROUND HIS
WIFE BY HER HAIR, TO BUILDING
00:44:19.03\00:44:22.13
PYRAMIDS...
00:44:22.13\00:44:24.23
OVERNIGHT.
00:44:24.23\00:44:26.23
THAT'S WHAT THEY
WANT US TO BELIEVE.
00:44:26.23\00:44:30.00
IT'S NOT TRUE.
00:44:30.00\00:44:31.83
NOW I WANNA ILLUSTRATE THIS.
00:44:31.83\00:44:33.06
I'VE GOT ONE MORE
ILLUSTRATION HERE.
00:44:33.06\00:44:35.53
I WAS GONNA USE A MOUSETRAP BUT
IT WAS SO SMALL I DIDN'T THINK
00:44:40.00\00:44:42.13
THEY COULD GET IT ON CAMERA.
00:44:42.13\00:44:43.86
YOU'VE MAYBE SEEN THIS BEFORE.
00:44:43.86\00:44:45.00
IT'S PRETTY SIMPLE.
00:44:45.00\00:44:45.96
THIS IS A SIMPLE ILLUSTRATION
THAT HAS BEEN USED --
00:44:45.96\00:44:50.00
IT'S TALKED ABOUT OR REFERRED
TO AS IRREDUCIBLE COMPLEXITY.
00:44:50.00\00:44:55.46
NOW, YOU GOT A MOUSETRAP
HERE AND IT'S GOT SEVERAL PARTS.
00:44:55.46\00:44:58.13
YOU GOT YOUR LEVER, YOU GOT YOUR
HAMMER, YOU GOT YOUR BAIT AND
00:44:58.13\00:45:01.53
YOU GOT YOUR PLATFORM.
00:45:01.53\00:45:02.50
YOU GOT YOUR SPRING.
00:45:02.50\00:45:03.73
SO WHAT DID I SAY,
ABOUT FIVE PARTS THERE?
00:45:03.73\00:45:05.93
AND IF YOU REMOVE ANY --
YOU KNOW WHAT'S AMAZING TO ME?
00:45:05.93\00:45:11.00
WELL, I GOTTA FINISH
WHAT I'M SAYING HERE.
00:45:11.00\00:45:13.93
YOU REMOVE ANY ONE OF THESE
AND THE WHOLE THING LOSES ITS
00:45:13.93\00:45:17.50
PURPOSE.
00:45:17.50\00:45:19.56
ANY ONE -- TAKE AWAY THE
PLATFORM -- ANY ONE PART OF IT,
00:45:19.56\00:45:22.30
AND IT CEASES TO HAVE
A PURPOSE FOR EXISTING.
00:45:22.30\00:45:25.00
IN YOUR BODY AND IN EVERY CELL,
THERE ARE SO MANY MACHINES.
00:45:25.00\00:45:29.90
EVEN IN THE CELLS, THERE
ARE MACHINES THAT HAVE SEVERAL
00:45:29.90\00:45:32.53
MOVING, WORKING PARTS THAT ONLY
HAVE A PURPOSE FOR EXISTING AS
00:45:32.53\00:45:35.96
THEY ALL COME
TOGETHER AT THE SAME TIME.
00:45:35.96\00:45:39.33
THERE IS NO EXPLANATION IN
EVOLUTION HOW ALL OF A SUDDEN
00:45:39.33\00:45:43.16
THERE WOULD BE SOME FORCE THAT
WOULD BRING ALL THE PARTS OF THE
00:45:43.16\00:45:45.16
MOUSETRAP TOGETHER AT THE
SAME TIME, AND MAKE IT A WORKING
00:45:45.16\00:45:47.56
MOUSETRAP TO CATCH MICE.
00:45:47.56\00:45:49.63
OR IN THIS CASE, RATS.
00:45:49.63\00:45:51.46
CAN I HAVE A VOLUNTEER?
00:45:53.13\00:45:54.93
[CHUCKLING] I'M SERIOUS.
00:45:54.93\00:45:57.86
OH, NO HANDS ARE GOING UP NOW.
00:45:57.86\00:46:01.00
WHEN I MENTIONED SEX, I
HAD SEVERAL HANDS THAT WENT UP.
00:46:01.00\00:46:03.36
[LAUGHING]
ALRIGHT, WHO'S MY VOLUNTEER?
00:46:03.36\00:46:07.33
GREEN SHIRT.
00:46:07.33\00:46:08.66
OKAY.
00:46:11.30\00:46:12.40
I'VE DONE THIS BEFORE
AND THIS IS NOT A MOUSETRAP.
00:46:12.40\00:46:14.10
THIS IS A RAT TRAP.
00:46:14.10\00:46:15.20
NOW WE MAY NEED
THIS; YOU NEVER KNOW.
00:46:15.20\00:46:17.70
BECAUSE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
EVOLUTION DURING THIS PROGRAM,
00:46:17.70\00:46:19.66
SOMETHING COULD CRAWL OUT OF
THE STAGE, AND WE MIGHT NEED TO
00:46:19.66\00:46:22.73
CATCH IT.
00:46:22.73\00:46:23.83
OH LOOK, WHAT HAVE WE GOT THERE?
00:46:23.83\00:46:25.90
[LAUGHTER] GO GRAB
THAT REAL QUICK BEFORE
00:46:25.90\00:46:27.80
IT GETS AWAY.
00:46:27.80\00:46:28.96
[LAUGHTER] LET'S
BRING THAT OVER HERE.
00:46:28.96\00:46:32.30
LET'S SEE IF THIS THING WORKS.
00:46:32.30\00:46:34.30
[SNAP] [LAUGHTER]
00:46:34.30\00:46:39.50
DID IT WORK?
00:46:39.50\00:46:40.96
YOU SAW ME JUMP
THREE FEET OFF THE GROUND.
00:46:40.96\00:46:44.06
[LAUGHTER CONTINUES] BOY,
THIS COULD HAVE GONE BAD...
00:46:44.06\00:46:48.33
IF MY HAND HAD
BEEN CAUGHT IN THAT.
00:46:48.33\00:46:51.03
THEY GOTTA BE SENSITIVE.
00:46:53.36\00:46:56.13
GO AHEAD, PUT YOUR
HAND IN THAT GLOVE THERE.
00:46:56.13\00:46:59.40
NO, NO.
00:46:59.40\00:47:00.36
[SNAP] I'M GONNA
LET THIS GO RIGHT
00:47:00.36\00:47:01.93
THERE.
00:47:01.93\00:47:02.70
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR HELPING.
00:47:02.70\00:47:04.00
WE'LL ASSUME IT'S DEAD.
00:47:04.00\00:47:06.33
[LAUGHTER] I DON'T
WANNA PUSH MY LUCK WITH
00:47:06.33\00:47:09.76
THAT THING, AND I'M
RUNNING OUT OF TIME.
00:47:09.76\00:47:12.06
ALRIGHT, LET'S GET
BACK TO OUR LESSON HERE.
00:47:12.06\00:47:15.90
QUESTION NUMBER SIX:
00:47:15.90\00:47:17.43
HAVE YOU HEARD THAT SAID BEFORE?
00:47:27.06\00:47:29.06
"OH, WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR
MILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF YEARS."
00:47:29.06\00:47:31.96
ANSWER: MATTHEW 15:9.
00:47:31.96\00:47:35.50
THEY'RE NOT THE
COMMANDMENTS OF GOD.
00:47:44.96\00:47:46.60
THERE ARE MEN WHO ARE CONFUSING
PEOPLE WITH THEIR OWN THEORIES
00:47:46.60\00:47:51.10
THAT ARE GOING AGAINST WHAT THE
PLAIN TEACHING OF GOD'S WORD IS,
00:47:51.10\00:47:53.53
AS WELL AS THE
EVIDENCE OF SCIENCE.
00:47:53.53\00:47:56.20
IT'S NOT BEEN
MILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF YEARS.
00:47:56.20\00:47:59.50
LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.
00:47:59.50\00:48:01.50
FOR ONE THING, I TALKED
ABOUT THE HISTORY OF MAN --
00:48:01.50\00:48:03.66
A WRITTEN HISTORY.
00:48:03.66\00:48:04.46
BUT WHAT ABOUT IN THE TREES?
00:48:04.46\00:48:06.63
TREES LIVE A LONG TIME.
00:48:06.63\00:48:08.63
THIS IS A PICTURE OF WHAT
THEY CALL THE METHUSELAH TREE.
00:48:08.63\00:48:11.30
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE OLDEST
TREE IN THE WORLD, THERE IN
00:48:11.30\00:48:13.40
CALIFORNIA.
00:48:13.40\00:48:14.86
WHEN THEY DO THE RESEARCH AND
THEY BORED A HOLE AND CHECKED
00:48:14.86\00:48:17.70
THE RINGS ON IT, IT CAME OUT AT
ABOUT 4,800 YEARS, AND THAT'S AN
00:48:17.70\00:48:21.80
APPROXIMATE GUESS, BECAUSE SOME
YEARS -- BECAUSE OF THE SEASONS
00:48:21.80\00:48:25.43
AND THE RAINS, IT CAN SOMETIMES
CONFUSE THE RINGS A LITTLE BIT.
00:48:25.43\00:48:28.86
BUT ISN'T IT INTERESTING
THAT THE HISTORY OF MAN --
00:48:28.86\00:48:32.46
THE WRITTEN HISTORY OF MAN, AND
THE HISTORY IN THE TREES, AND IN
00:48:32.46\00:48:37.06
SO MANY OTHER AREAS, IT JUST
SEEMS TO GO BACK 4,000 OR 5,000
00:48:37.06\00:48:40.36
YEARS.
00:48:40.36\00:48:41.70
AND THEN EVERYTHING SORT
OF DROPS OFF INTO SPECULATION.
00:48:41.70\00:48:45.43
SUPPOSE THAT YOU GO INTO A ROOM.
00:48:45.43\00:48:48.16
I GOT A ROOM,
AND THERE'S A DOOR.
00:48:48.16\00:48:51.50
IT'S A DARK ROOM, AND I OPEN THE
DOOR AND YOU LOOK IN THE ROOM
00:48:51.50\00:48:54.70
AND THERE'S A BURNING CANDLE.
00:48:54.70\00:48:56.73
AND I ASK YOU, "CAN YOU TELL
ME HOW LONG THAT CANDLE HAS BEEN
00:48:56.73\00:49:00.56
BURNING?"
00:49:00.56\00:49:01.90
AND THEN YOU SHUT THE DOOR.
00:49:01.90\00:49:03.60
CAN YOU TELL ME HOW LONG?
00:49:05.56\00:49:08.33
WELL, LET'S JUST SEE.
00:49:08.33\00:49:09.73
IF YOU KNEW HOW TALL THE CANDLE
WAS WHEN IT STARTED, YOU MIGHT
00:49:09.73\00:49:14.50
LOOK AT THE CLUMP OF WAX THAT'S
AT THE BOTTOM, IF IT'S LEAKING.
00:49:14.50\00:49:17.56
GOOD CANDLES DON'T LEAK.
00:49:17.56\00:49:18.60
BUT IF IT'S LEAKING A LITTLE
WAX, YOU MIGHT TRY AND MEASURE
00:49:18.60\00:49:20.56
HOW MUCH WAX IS THERE.
00:49:20.56\00:49:21.96
AND YOU MIGHT DO A BUNCH OF
CALCULATIONS AND SAY, "WELL,
00:49:21.96\00:49:24.30
BASED ON THE SIZE OF THE
CEILING, AND BASED ON THE ROOM
00:49:24.30\00:49:27.53
AND HOW QUICKLY THE CANDLE
IS BURNING, THE CANDLE MUST HAVE
00:49:27.53\00:49:31.10
BEEN THIS TALL WHEN IT STARTED."
00:49:31.10\00:49:34.03
BUT SUPPOSE THERE WAS
MORE OXYGEN IN THE ROOM OR LESS
00:49:34.03\00:49:37.36
OXYGEN IN THE ROOM
BEFORE YOU OPENED THE DOOR.
00:49:37.36\00:49:40.36
DOES THAT AFFECT THE
SPEED AT WHICH IT BURNS?
00:49:40.36\00:49:42.90
IT DOES.
00:49:42.90\00:49:44.33
THE WHOLE DATING METHOD IS BUILT
UPON ASSUMING THAT EVERYTHING
00:49:44.33\00:49:50.23
HAS BEEN THE WAY IT IS NOW,
AND THE BIBLE SAYS IT HASN'T.
00:49:50.23\00:49:55.43
OUR WHOLE PLANET WENT THROUGH
A VERY RADICAL, CATASTROPHIC
00:49:55.43\00:49:59.73
CHANGE ABOUT 5,000
YEARS AGO -- 4,500 YEARS AGO.
00:49:59.73\00:50:05.13
IT'S CALLED THE FLOOD.
00:50:05.13\00:50:06.93
THE WHOLE
ENVIRONMENT WAS CHANGED.
00:50:06.93\00:50:08.76
THE ATMOSPHERE WAS CHANGED.
00:50:08.76\00:50:10.00
AND YOU KNOW THEY SEE THIS
IN THE FOSSIL RECORD EVERYWHERE,
00:50:10.00\00:50:12.00
WHERE ALL OF A SUDDEN ANIMALS,
EVEN MAMMALS, THAT WERE VERY
00:50:12.00\00:50:15.63
LARGE SUDDENLY GOT VERY SMALL.
00:50:15.63\00:50:17.16
IT WAS LIKE THE
OXYGEN LEVELS CHANGED.
00:50:17.16\00:50:19.33
WHERE DO YOU THINK WE GET THESE
MASSIVE COAL BEDS AND OIL FIELDS
00:50:19.33\00:50:22.50
FROM?
00:50:22.50\00:50:23.76
THE ONLY EXPLANATION THEY'VE
GOT FOR THAT IS THERE WAS SOME
00:50:23.76\00:50:26.20
KIND OF CATASTROPHE THAT QUICKLY
COVERED ALL OF THIS LIVING
00:50:26.20\00:50:29.66
MATERIAL AND COMPRESSED IT.
00:50:29.66\00:50:32.60
THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH OIL WE
BURN EVERYDAY AROUND THE WORLD.
00:50:32.60\00:50:35.70
THAT ALL CAME FROM -- YOU KNOW
YOU DRIVE TO SCHOOL ON DINOSAUR
00:50:35.70\00:50:39.56
BLOOD.
00:50:39.56\00:50:41.10
EVER THINK OF IT THAT WAY?
00:50:41.10\00:50:42.46
IT REALLY IS: IT'S A PREHISTORIC
WORLD THAT'S DRIVING OUR WHOLE
00:50:42.46\00:50:47.20
CULTURE TODAY.
00:50:47.20\00:50:48.80
ALRIGHT, THEY TELL ME THAT WE
GOT ANOTHER TEXT QUESTION COMING
00:50:48.80\00:50:51.16
IN.
00:50:51.16\00:50:52.73
HERE IT IS:
00:50:53.70\00:50:55.06
YES, THEY DID.
00:51:03.96\00:51:06.43
AND ONE OF THE BIG REASONS THAT
THEY ARE COMING UP WITH THESE
00:51:06.43\00:51:11.36
DIFFERENT THEORIES IS BECAUSE OF
WHAT THEY THINK THEY SEE IN THE
00:51:11.36\00:51:14.93
GEOLOGIC COLUMN THAT THE
DINOSAURS ARE DEEPER THEN THEY
00:51:14.93\00:51:19.33
MAY FIND SOME OF
THE HUMAN REMAINS.
00:51:19.33\00:51:22.03
BUT REALLY THAT HAS TO DO WITH
WHAT HAPPENED WI5H THE FLOOD,
00:51:22.03\00:51:24.36
HOW QUICKLY THEIR REPTILES
SINK AS COMPARED TO MAMMALS.
00:51:24.36\00:51:28.16
THAT WOULD AFFECT EVERYTHING.
00:51:28.16\00:51:29.06
THAT'S WHY YOU WOULD HAVE
ALL THE SEASHELLS ON THE BOTTOM.
00:51:29.06\00:51:31.23
I'VE BEEN TO A PARK IN THE...
00:51:31.23\00:51:36.36
GLEN ROSE, TEXAS DINOSAUR PARK.
00:51:36.36\00:51:39.33
DINOSAUR FOOTPRINTS
EVERYWHERE IN THAT PARK.
00:51:39.33\00:51:42.03
YOU CAN WALK OUT
THERE AND LOOK AT THEM.
00:51:42.03\00:51:43.53
FAMILIES CAN GO
THERE ON A PICNIC.
00:51:43.53\00:51:44.93
I'VE BEEN THERE.
00:51:44.93\00:51:45.63
AND THEY GOT HUMAN FOOTPRINTS,
BIG HUMAN FOOTPRINTS CROSSING
00:51:45.63\00:51:48.63
OVER RIGHT ALONG WITH
THE DINOSAUR FOOTPRINTS.
00:51:48.63\00:51:50.93
AND IF I KNEW THIS QUESTION WAS
COMING IN, I WOULD'VE SHOWN YOU
00:51:50.93\00:51:52.70
A PICTURE OF MY FOOT NEXT
TO ONE OF THESE FOOTPRINTS.
00:51:52.70\00:51:56.40
I THINK THAT THEY
DID CO-EXIST TOGETHER.
00:51:56.40\00:51:58.93
A MATTER OF FACT, GOT
THAT TYRANNOSAURUS REX.
00:51:58.93\00:52:02.16
HOW MANY OF YOU HEARD ABOUT THIS
TYRANNOSAURUS REX THEY FOUND IN
00:52:02.16\00:52:04.43
2005?
00:52:04.43\00:52:05.80
AND THE EVOLUTIONIST, PROBABLY
ATHEISTIC PALEONTOLOGIST
00:52:05.80\00:52:13.03
DISSECTING A PIECE OF
THE TYRANNOSAURUS REX BONE.
00:52:13.03\00:52:16.36
"60 MILLION YEARS OLD."
00:52:16.36\00:52:19.53
WAS SHOCKED WHEN SHE FOUND
SOFT TISSUE HEMOGLOBIN AND BLOOD
00:52:19.53\00:52:24.50
CELLS.
00:52:24.50\00:52:25.30
AND THERE'S A PICTURE OF IT.
00:52:25.30\00:52:27.13
YOU CAN FIND THIS ONLINE.
00:52:27.13\00:52:28.43
THEN THEY BEGAN TO REALLY
TALK JURASSIC PARK WHEN THEY SAW
00:52:28.43\00:52:30.73
THAT.
00:52:30.73\00:52:31.70
AND THEY SAID, "WHOA.
00:52:31.70\00:52:33.40
WE HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT ANY
SOFT TISSUE IS DESTROYED AFTER
00:52:33.40\00:52:38.03
10,000 YEARS."
00:52:38.03\00:52:39.66
WELL, THEY'RE WRONG
ABOUT THAT: 10,000 YEARS.
00:52:39.66\00:52:41.63
THEY SAID, "HOW CAN WE EXPLAIN
THAT WE HAVE SOFT TISSUE IN A
00:52:41.63\00:52:45.30
TYRANNOSAURUS REX
THAT'S 60 MILLION YEARS?
00:52:45.30\00:52:47.80
THAT COULD NEVER HAPPEN.
00:52:47.80\00:52:48.63
THERE MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG IN
THE WAY WE'RE CALCULATING SOFT
00:52:48.63\00:52:51.43
TISSUE."
00:52:51.43\00:52:52.50
THEY WOULDN'T ACCEPT THAT THEY
MIGHT BE CALCULATING THE DATES
00:52:52.50\00:52:55.10
WRONG.
00:52:55.10\00:52:56.90
THE DATING SYSTEM THAT IS USED
BY EVOLUTIONISTS IS THE HOLY
00:52:56.90\00:53:01.73
COW.
00:53:01.73\00:53:03.53
ONCE YOU SHOW THAT THEIR WHOLE
DATING SYSTEM IS BASED UPON
00:53:03.53\00:53:07.23
BAD DATA, THE WHOLE EVOLUTIONARY
SYSTEM CRUMBLES LIKE A HOUSE OF
00:53:07.23\00:53:11.60
CARDS.
00:53:11.60\00:53:12.43
I'VE GOT SO MUCH
TO SHARE WITH YOU.
00:53:12.43\00:53:14.30
MAYBE I'LL BE ABLE TO COVER MORE
OF THIS INFORMATION IN SOME OF
00:53:14.30\00:53:16.23
YOUR QUESTIONS
THAT WILL COME IN.
00:53:16.23\00:53:18.40
I GOT A QUOTE HERE.
00:53:18.40\00:53:19.50
LET ME SEE IF I CAN
FIND THIS REAL QUICK.
00:53:19.50\00:53:22.40
ABOUT -- YEAH, CARBON 14 DATING.
00:53:22.40\00:53:24.73
THIS IS FROM
COLLIER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA.
00:53:24.73\00:53:28.10
"CARBON 14 IS PRODUCED IN THE
EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE WHEN NITROGEN
00:53:28.10\00:53:31.26
14 OR N14
INTERACTS WITH COSMIC RAYS.
00:53:31.26\00:53:34.06
SCIENTISTS BELIEVE THAT COSMIC
RAYS HAVE BEEN BOMBARDING THE
00:53:34.06\00:53:37.60
ATMOSPHERE EVER SINCE THE EARTH
WAS FORMED WHILE THE AMOUNT OF
00:53:37.60\00:53:40.96
NITROGEN IN THE ATMOSPHERE
HAS REMAINED CONSTANT."
00:53:40.96\00:53:43.86
THEY'RE ASSUMING THAT
EVERYTHING IS CONSTANT.
00:53:43.86\00:53:46.13
THAT'S THE ONLY WAY
THEY CAN USE THAT THEORY.
00:53:46.13\00:53:48.00
"CONSEQUENTLY, C14 FORMATION IS
THOUGHT TO OCCUR IN A CONSTANT
00:53:48.00\00:53:52.16
RATE."
00:53:52.16\00:53:53.10
IT'S "THOUGHT TO";
THIS IS THE ENCYCLOPEDIA.
00:53:53.10\00:53:56.13
"ALTHOUGH THE CURRENT RATIO
OF C14 AND OTHER CARBON ATOMS IN
00:53:56.13\00:53:59.33
THE ATMOSPHERE IS KNOWN,
SCIENTISTS ARE NOT CERTAIN THAT
00:53:59.33\00:54:03.20
THIS RATIO HAS BEEN CONSTANT."
00:54:03.20\00:54:06.23
THIS IS THE ENCYCLOPEDIA ABOUT
THEIR DATING METHOD, UPON WHICH
00:54:06.23\00:54:08.53
THIS WHOLE THEORY IS BASED.
00:54:08.53\00:54:10.70
"ERRORS IN RADIO CARBON DATING
CAN BE CAUSED BY INACCURATE
00:54:12.03\00:54:15.00
RADIATION OR PARTICLE COUNTS,
CONTAMINATION OF A SAMPLE WITH A
00:54:15.00\00:54:18.46
MORE MODERN CARBON AND A STRAY
RADIATION STRIKING THE COUNTER."
00:54:18.46\00:54:22.30
"USING SUCH DATA, SCIENTISTS ARE
ABLE TO DISTINGUISH WHICH EVENTS
00:54:24.10\00:54:26.53
CAME BEFORE OTHERS.
00:54:26.53\00:54:28.26
BUT USUALLY CANNOT PINPOINT
PRECISELY WHEN THE EVENTS
00:54:28.26\00:54:31.73
OCCURRED."
00:54:31.73\00:54:33.40
IT IS A VERY
LOOSE, SLOPPY SCIENCE.
00:54:33.40\00:54:36.30
I HAVE A FRIEND, USED
TO BE AN EVOLUTIONIST.
00:54:36.30\00:54:38.53
WORKED IN A DATING LAB, WHERE
THEY... RADIO ISOTOPE DATING.
00:54:38.53\00:54:42.56
AND WHEN PEOPLE SUBMIT SAMPLES
TO BE DATE [SIC], THEY TELL WHAT
00:54:42.56\00:54:46.10
THEY RECOMMEND THAT THE DATE TO
BE BASED ON HOW DEEP THEY FOUND
00:54:46.10\00:54:48.66
IT.
00:54:48.66\00:54:50.10
SHE SAYS, "IT WAS STAGED
AND YOU SENT THE SAME SAMPLES TO
00:54:50.13\00:54:52.86
DIFFERENT LABORATORIES.
00:54:52.86\00:54:53.93
THEY COME UP WITH ALL
DIFFERENT KINDS OF READINGS."
00:54:53.93\00:54:58.10
AND SO, THE SCIENCE IS SO
TERRIBLY FLAWED, AND YET IT IS
00:54:58.13\00:55:01.73
BEING BROUGHT AND PRESENTED
AS "OH, THIS IS A FACT.
00:55:01.73\00:55:04.53
IT'S A FACT, AND YOU'RE FOOLISH
IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT."
00:55:04.53\00:55:07.16
BY THE WAY, THERE WAS A
VERY SCIENTIFIC GROUP OF PEOPLE
00:55:07.16\00:55:10.30
CALLED NAZIS...
00:55:10.30\00:55:12.70
THAT SAID, "EVERYONE
OTHER THAN ARYANS IS INFERIOR."
00:55:12.70\00:55:16.80
AND THEY WERE CONSIDERED, I MEAN
THEY HAD A MILITARY MACHINE.
00:55:16.80\00:55:20.73
VERY SCIENTIFIC, BUT YOU KNOW
WHAT THEIR BELIEF WAS THAT THEY
00:55:20.73\00:55:23.53
TAUGHT EVERYBODY?
00:55:23.53\00:55:24.33
THE PROBLEM WITH
THE WORLD IS JEWS.
00:55:24.33\00:55:26.43
I GUESS THEY WOULD'VE HAD A
PROBLEM WITH JESUS TOO, RIGHT?
00:55:26.43\00:55:29.66
SCIENTIFIC
PEOPLE, VERY EDUCATED.
00:55:29.66\00:55:32.33
AND I'M NOT TRYING
TO BE HARD ON GERMANS.
00:55:32.33\00:55:35.13
I'M PART GERMAN, MY WIFE'S
GERMAN; YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M
00:55:35.13\00:55:36.83
SAYING?
00:55:36.83\00:55:38.20
BUT ADOLF HITLER AND OTHERS HAVE
SAID, "IF YOU TELL PEOPLE A LIE
00:55:38.20\00:55:41.53
OFTEN ENOUGH, THEY'LL
GET TO WHERE THEY BELIEVE IT.
00:55:41.53\00:55:45.63
YOU TELL ENOUGH PEOPLE A LIE
OFTEN ENOUGH AND WELL ENOUGH,
00:55:45.63\00:55:49.56
AND IF YOU INTIMIDATE THEM FOR
BELIEVING SOMETHING ELSE, PRETTY
00:55:49.56\00:55:53.26
SOON THEY'LL START TO
CAPITULATE AND BELIEVE A LIE."
00:55:53.26\00:55:57.66
WELL FRIENDS, WE'RE ABOUT OUT
OF TIME FOR THIS PRESENTATION.
00:55:57.66\00:56:01.13
BUT I THINK I'VE MADE
THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT.
00:56:01.13\00:56:04.60
YOU DID NOT HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT.
00:56:04.60\00:56:07.56
YOU WERE CREATED BY GOD.
00:56:07.56\00:56:09.23
I WAS TALKING THIS LAST YEAR
TO A FRIEND WHO'S ON NATIONAL
00:56:09.23\00:56:13.36
TELEVISION EVERYDAY.
00:56:13.36\00:56:15.20
DOESN'T BELIEVE IN GOD, HE'S AN
ATHEIST AND WE AND I, HE AND I
00:56:15.20\00:56:19.33
HAVE FRIENDLY CONVERSATIONS.
00:56:19.33\00:56:21.53
AND AFTER WE GOT DONE TALKING
ONE DAY HE SAID, "WELL DOUG, I
00:56:21.53\00:56:24.53
KNOW ONE OF US IS RIGHT."
00:56:24.53\00:56:26.06
AND I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, "YEAH,
BUT... IF I'M RIGHT, NOTHING IS
00:56:27.90\00:56:33.36
MORE IMPORTANT.
00:56:33.36\00:56:35.93
IF YOU'RE RIGHT,
NOTHING REALLY MATTERS."
00:56:35.93\00:56:39.63
IF IT'S ALL A BIG
ACCIDENT, THEN NOTHING MATTERS.
00:56:39.63\00:56:42.76
BUT IF WHAT I'M TELLING YOU IS
THE TRUTH, FRIENDS, THEN NOTHING
00:56:42.76\00:56:45.90
IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN GOD
BEING CENTRAL IN YOUR LIFE.
00:56:45.90\00:56:50.46
CAN YOU SEE HOW
IMPORTANT THIS QUESTION IS?
00:56:50.46\00:56:52.23
AND HAVING THE RIGHT
ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION?
00:56:52.23\00:56:54.23
BECAUSE IF GOD MADE YOU,
HE'S GOT A PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE.
00:56:54.23\00:56:58.50
AND IF THE DEVIL IS TRYING TO
DESTROY YOU AND THERE'S A BATTLE
00:56:58.50\00:57:00.86
OVER YOUR ALLEGIANCE AND YOUR
LOVE, AND JESUS IS TRYING TO WIN
00:57:00.86\00:57:04.33
YOUR, YOUR FAITH AND YOUR
TRUST, NOTHING'S MORE IMPORTANT.
00:57:04.33\00:57:08.60
AND THAT'S MY APPEAL FOR EACH
OF YOU TO KNOW: THAT YOU ARE
00:57:08.60\00:57:11.83
FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY
MADE IN THE IMAGE OF GOD...
