Did you ever...?

When you were a child, did you ever wonder about the things you heard in church, Sunday School, vacation Bible school? Did you ever dare question any grownup about anything that went against the grain of the organized church that you belonged to?

I remember asking why schools taught that we evolved from monkeys but the Bible said we were created in the image of God? Of course, no one was saying God was a monkey!!! Could not get an answer to my question. Still can't. Now my question is, if we evolved from monkeys, why have we stopped evolving? Everything that science says evolved from something else seems to have "stopped evolving". In all these millions of years that the earth has been around and creatures have been around, shouldn't we be at another place by now? In some cases, it seems that nature has gone backwards. Did elephants evolve from mammoths? If so, why are elephants so much smaller than mammoths?

Welcome your comments, thoughts.

  1. The evolutionists have propounded a theory as a fact. They don't know. And their evidence is imperfect.

    The truth is to be found in scripture alone. God reveals Himself as we search for Him.

  2. Judith, please forgive the delay in responding. Life has been busy. Just retired and looking at other business/income ideas. Thank you so much for your comment.
    I agree God reveals Himself but I am also glad He does not discourage questions in our search for Truth. I am learning to question everything and in doing so, I get the answers I need.
    Keep reading. Hope to post more often.
    Blessings to you.
