Dr. Whelan's aim in this book is to encourage readers to look at the truth of the history of the Holy Scriptures and to affirm the belief in the verbal inspiration of Scripture and its inerrancy and infallibility. His work focuses on an overview of the truth of six literal days for creation. Natural God-given laws of physics and a cosmological model are examined. The question of evolution is also considered. He shows the earth as being young in accordance with the Biblical record. He also writes that the universe is also relatively young and that we should consider Biblical creation as our starting point.This effort to instiU what God created in six days, as compared to theories of evolution, will undoubtedly generate much discussion.In this work I analyse Bible Creation truth vs evolutionism - a young earth vs an old earth.When it comes to a subject such as this it is wonderful to have an eye-witness as a friend. The Lord Jesus is that eye-witness. As the Son of God - the Eternal Second Person of Elohim and YAHWEH - He walked with Adam in the Garden - but before that was with the Father and the Holy Spirit creating and speaking (Ge 1:3, 9, 11, 20, 26; 2:3, 18; 2:9, 22, 23). We know this truth as Jesus as the Eternal living word (Jn 1:1), told Moses all that Moses needed to know and write down as historical fact.This author has research over 60 works - scholarly books to discuss and confirm the truth of the Bible for this title: Bible Creation Truth - Genesis 1. Man is the apex of the Lord God's creation not the ape of evolutionism. God's creation of His fullness apart from man was different for He said "Let the land produce living creatures..." (Gen 1:24). However, when God made man, it was a personal relationship - "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule ......" (Gen 1:26). Man was made viceroy of God's creation, in charge of all God's work under God until man was disobedient.The aim of this work is to encourage believers to focus on the absolute truth of the history of the Bible - Holy Scripture (2 Tim 3:15-17). The focus is literal Biblical truth as opposed to a focus on metaphor, allegory or poetry. Some will suggest there is a place for these but this leads to liberal relativism. The question is - which worldview? In the theological subject "Apologetics" much has been written emphasising that Christians must be prepared to give a reason for heir hope in Jesus, but also to be well versed in the Historical fact of Scriptural truth. Thus this work is an encouragement for diligent study of literal Biblical truth.In this work, this author will not limit the theology of the existence of God. The Biblical fact is that God does exist and that He is sovereign. The sovereignty of God, (Elohim) (Ge 1;1-2:3), the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit - YAHWEH (LORD) (Ge 2:4ff) is Biblical fact and the truth of the Trinity and the authority of the Person of Jesus is not questioned. Separate chapters are devoted to these truths. Jesus is the eternal second Person of YAHWEH, who came into our history but who has always been present in God's eternity in the loving unity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (1 Peter 1:19,20) Jesus was to be Saviour as this Scripture teaches - Saviour before the world began.This work focuses on firstly an overview of the truth of 6 literal days of creation. The supernatural and miraculous works of God are never questioned. Natural God given laws of physics and a cosmological model are examined. The question of evolution is also examined. There then follows the truth Scripture gives on these questions. Several subjects are repeated and added to, depending on their relation to key subject areas.The Holy Spirit guides born again believers into all truth - keep rejoicing.
