Creation Moment 5/27/2020 - Death & Theistic Evolution
"Death is a terrible, terrible thing. No wonder Jesus wept at the tomb of Lazarus (Jesus wept. John 11:35), even though Jesus knew He was about to bring Lazarus back to life.
This tells me three things about the holiness and love of God.
- How awful sin must be to a holy God that the penalty for our rebellion against Him is such a terrible, terrible thing as death.
- How wonderful is God’s love to us sinful creatures that He sent His own Son to pay the penalty for our sin by means of His death on the cross.
- How inconceivable is the theistic-evolutionary presupposition that a God of love would have used a process of death and suffering over millions of years to produce the first human beings."
