"At the end of the sixth day of creation, God saw that everything He had made was very good: “Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them” (Genesis 2:1, KJV). The creation was now complete, functional, and interactive from heaven to Earth and throughout the waters.
Following his temptation, man’s disobedience to God’s command regarding “the tree of the knowledge of good and evil” brought sin into this world, and with it the full force of God’s Curse fell upon the first man, Adam (Genesis 2:17, KJV). As the creation was comprehensive, so was the punishment.
This same Curse affected all of mankind during about the first 1,656 years of history, culminating in a global judgment and repopulation of Earth through one righteous man and his family.
Since then, effects of the Curse have continued into recent history. Over the last 200 years, a progressive accumulation of philosophers and scientists have promoted a purely imaginative story: the ground (earth), all elements within it, all plants and animals made from it, mankind with dominion over it, and the vast complexity of the cosmos have evolved through a lifeless force described as nature. Therefore, Darwin’s false god of natural selection (selectionism) became an alternative creator of the universe and everything in it. Clearly, man has “changed the truth of God into a lie” and worships the creature more than the Creator (Romans 1:25, KJV).
God’s Word reveals the true history of creation.We never observe nature as a creative mechanism of increasing order and complexity.."
