To those who believe that they can perform an exegetical lobotomy on the Bible and discard the first eleven chapters of Genesis this book comes as a disapointment.Morris takes us through the many passages in the Bible that speak about creation, the curse and the flood, from Genesis to Revelation, including the teachings of Jesus, the disciples and the apostle Paul. One cannot really make sense of any other of the central doctrines of the Bible, such as sin, death as a result of sin, the need for salvation, the physical encarnation of Jesus, His physical ressurection, the promise of a new heaven and earth without curse and death, apart from the doctrine of creation and the fall.As I read this book I took the opportunity to read and mark all the quoted texts in my Bible and even found more interesting texts. I had never studied the biblical doctrine of creation before, and I must say that the simple reading of the relevant biblical texts is quite conclusive: theistic evolutionism and progressive creationism just cannot be made compatible with the Bible.If Jesus, the creator Word, can get himself a new ressurected and special body in a matter of seconds, he can create the whole universe in six days. The opposite also makes total sense.What's more, when Jesus multiplied the fishes and the loaves of bread and ressurected Lazarus, he didn't need trial and error nor randomness. He just did it right there. After all, the Bible makes it clear that he his the creator and sustainer of the universe, just by his Word. I just don't see why I should have more confidence in human scientists then in their creator.It takes a lot of argumentative acrobatics to even try to harmonize the hipothesis of evolution with the Bible, but in the end it just won't work.
I've already collected at least 15 different Christian books by Dr. Henry M. Morris in the paper-printed format, and I've got his work Biblical Creationism in the paper-format too... purchased from way back in August 2009, over 2 years ago. This is one of my favorite books by Dr. Henry M. Morris, so I'm glad to now have the digital Kindle-format ebook version likewise... as well as Kindle versions of his incredibly great Creation And The Second Coming, plus The Genesis Record, and several other Kindle ebooks. I really wish would bring their prices down lower (to maybe $4.00 each) so that I could afford to re-collect all 15 of my paper-printed Morris books in my Kindle. I can't afford to re-buy every Morris book at $10 and $9 prices!I notice that you don't yet have a Kindle version of my absolute-favorite book by Dr. Henry M. Morris, The Long War Against God, so I really hope you'll offer a Kindle version of that Morris book too, as soon as possible. I'm also eager to get a Kindle version of Morris' book The Revelation Record, which is another of his great books that's not yet available in Kindle format.Although Dr. Henry M. Morris held a Ph.D. in Engineering and never got a seminary degree, he was a life-long student of the Bible, and in his long lifetime he produced a larger number of excellent Bible commentary books than most seminary-trained theologians, professors, pastors, or general-public Christian writers. He also wrote a huge number of books related to the Biblical perspective on modern science and the ages-old conflict between Creationism and pantheistic Evolutionism. I consider him to be one of the most courageous Christian writers who ever lived on this planet...
