Romans 8:22
Q: Why do we die?
A: Because man rebelled against God (Genesis 3)-we are all sinners.
Q: Why are there fossil layers all over the earth?
A: Because there was a global Flood-Noah’s Flood.
Q: Why are there different languages and cultures?
A: Because of the Tower of Babel and the subsequent judgment.
The Bible gives us an account of the origin of sin and death and thus that we are living in a fallen world.
This is not the world as God originally created it.
Thus the Bible’s history connects to death, fossils, the dirt, plants, animals-to everything.
It is not just a book of moral and spiritual matters, but a book of history that connects to every aspect of reality and explains what we observe in this present world.
As Christians, we should not be trying to fit death and suffering into the Bible, but using the history God has revealed to us, build the right way of thinking (worldview) to correctly understand the origin of death and suffering."
