Can someone be a Christian and a evolutionist?
Evolution was never implied in the word of God. Animals and man were created on separate days. And in separate ways. Both fully formed and ready to multiply as God commanded. Evolution denies the first sin committed. And in doing so, denies the very reason of why Christ died on the cross. Which also denies the old and new covenant for sin atonement. Evolution plus God leaves some questions that the theistic evolutionist does not want to answer.
1) How did sin evolve?
2) How did the soul evolve?
3) At what point during evolution did man recieve a soul that required him to be saved?
4) Since man was made in God's image. If man had to evolve, so did God (to be made in the inage of God). So how did God evolve, and how did His Godship evolve (being God with God like powers)?
5) How did the angels evolve?
6) How did hell evolve?
7) How did heaven evolve?
8) How did the spiritual realm evolve?
9) How did being Holy and rightous evolve?
10) How did Good and evil evolve?
Evolution is life from liflessness. Creation is something from nothing. And is the very reason the questions above cannot be answered by evolution or science. But for the believer, these answers need to be addressed. Because if someone asks how they are biblically cased. and the only answer you can give is science. The person you could have brought to the Lord will realize that God is to weak to have done this the exact way that He said that He did. And being that the bible is the only written source for God, why worship a God to weak to keep His word true? A God big enough to create all things, split the Red Sea, walk on water, and die to forgive sins. Is to weak to keep His inspired word true?
Theistc Evolutionist quote about God: Rejecting His creation is not glorifying Him. The reason that Christians in science overwhelmingly accept that God did it this way, is partly because a God Who creates by evolution is more powerful and capable than a mere demiurge who has to create things a bit at a time.
Here is an example of how evolution makes someone full of hate and bias to a point that they believe that they are favored by God. And everyone else God hates, and will throw them in hell.. http://godhatesrepublicans.org/main/index.html This person even goes as far as to say who will go to hell because they do not agree with his theology. On what he believes truth is. My site might get at people for doing wrong, but this site takes it to an extreme. He even cusses on it from time to time while he speaks about people he hates so, it's almost like you get the impression he can't control himself. In my opinion, this is a perfect example of a fake Christian website. Because I don't know anywhere in God's word were what's is preached there is supported. And yes, this person would claim to be a theistic evolutionist.
