Please read my words carefully:
If you see footmark in the sand, you'll say that someone passed from here...
If you see a piece of dog sh*t on the ground, you'll say that a dog passed from here...
So what about the enormous universe, the sky, stars, planets, earth and all the beauty in it, doesn't it lead to that someone made it?!!!

Some people say that everything is created by itself after the big-bang... I won't ask you about what caused the big-bang, but I'll ask you a simple question:
If you take all the letters of the alphabet, multiples of them, and you threw them randomly on the floor. Do you expect (by a chance of one in infinity) to get a poem like shakespear's??!!

Can't you see how organized our universe is, the planets, the eco-system on earth, look even in your own body... Can you control your heart-beat? Can you control your breath while you're sleeping? Who stopped your eye-lashes from growing after reaching a certain length? Who told the baby turtles to move towards the sea and not to the earth after they come out of their eggs? Who taught the bird how to make nests?

My friend, think with your heart and brain. If you're still lost, think about the following:

Do you know how to play safe?
Your point:
If there's no God and you do all what you want in life, then nothing will happen to you after life. But if there was God and you were mistaken, then you'll blame yourself FOREVER...

Believer's point:
If there's God and I followed His commands in life, then I'll be in Heaven after life FOREVER. But if there was no God and we're mistaken, then nothing bad will happen to us after life...

Now you know how to play-safe, in case you're not convinced?

first off, im sorry that someone gave you a thumbs down about this question...i appreciate that you are searching for the correct thing to believe in

evolution, as a science, is in fact not a science at all. Science can be defined as something that is observed and tested. Evolution cannot and never has been tested. If evolution is a constant ever-changing cycle, there should be countless amounts of every stage of humans....so how can they explain why they haven't found one "missing link" as they call it not even a fossil of one.

second, Christianity offers an answer to this question. God is the ultimate Creator of everything. He has always existed, he is existing, and He always will exist. He created Adam out of dirt and Eve from a part of Adam. All other humans were descendants of Adam and Eve.

Neither your teacher or science can claim what your teacher says to you those things they tell you are theories, which no one here today,on earth can say because who of them was there in that time?yet some even go as far as to, number the years, but how can the say this, when they did not see it happen it has not happened in their day has it?Yet we do have information from someone who was there, even before, time itself, and that someone has seen what happened and he tells us in his Word the Bible that he Made Adam and Eve from dust, and gave them the breath of life, and Eve from the rib of Adam. I am not a scientist but I do know that Science does not have all the Answers,but God does have all the Answers even though many people don't want to believe God, and rather believe the lies that Satan tells them as did Adam and Eve right in the Beginning of human history!

Just realize that just your teachers point of view I personally believe God works with science, what make us think when God formed the earth didn't make a noise shush as a bang like when meteors when make crash sound. It talks in the bible about this.
It may come as a surprise for many people that the Bible does not say God created the earth in six days. The Bible starts out. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1). The next verse states, “The earth was without form and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.” The rest of Genesis 1 describes the six-day period culminating in the creation of man.

The words “without form and void” in verse 2 are translated from the Hebrew tohu va bohu, meaning a state of chaos and confusion—waste, destruction, empti¬ness. Why would God have created a world in disorder and then brought it to order? That wouldn’t seem to make sense. Moreover the word for “created,” bara, implies a perfected work—a universe with order and system, not in confusion. Note 1 Corinthians 14:33 says, “God is not the author of confusion.” So God would not have created the earth this way.

Direct biblical evidence against God having created the universe and earth in a state of confusion can be found in Isaiah 45:18. It says, “For thus says the LORD, who created the heavens, who is God, who formed the earth and made it, who has established it, who did not create it in vain, who formed it to be inhabited? The word rendered “vain” is tohu—the same word used in Genesis 1:2 to describe chaos and confusion. So God did not create the earth in a state of chaos. How, then, are we to understand the context of verse 2?

Remember, it begins: “The earth was without form and void…” The word given as “was” here is translated from hayah. This Hebrew word is rendered in Genesis 2:7, 9:15 and 19:26 as “became.” The occurrences of this word in Genesis 1-3 and several other places are in the contexts of changed circumstances. Thus the earth became chaotic and in destruc¬tion. If scientists are correct, it was per¬haps billions of years ago that the uni¬verse was originally created. And, at some later point, destruction came.
Hope this helps Diane

Don't feel so bad...

Faith is just that and Science is based on facts that can be seen and proven... Does that make God and Creation a story? I say no. But, I can't prove it one way or the other. I can however tell you that alot of things in Science prove what our Scripture says about God and Creation. Read my Apologetic and see for your self... All the information is verifiable with research.

Go to www.creationscience.com and get the scientific facts of creation science, that the evolutionist don't want you to see, its mor then just a fruit tree story and an ark story. It explains astroids and comets and how the flood happen ect. From there you can probably do a search for books on creationscience and they can give you other authors and more scientific facts they won't teach you in school.

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, 1 Corinthians 14:33

The first thing you need to ask yourself is, "What do I believe about Christ and why?"

Do you believe in Christ because your mother told you to, if so then the faith you are trying to practice is not yours it's hers and only she can practice it.

Let me tell you a story, I was once confused about my own beliefs, even to the point of thinking there was no God and that life was a hopeless cycle of depression. But I was raised in the church, I should be happy and smiley and kindly and faithful and friendly to the annoyance of all those around me, right? Isn't that Christianity? Not so.

Christianity for, individuals, starts with Chrsit and what He has done on the cross. While I was trapped in my confusion I was reminded of my guilt before God, in fact my confusion resulted in my refusal to accept my sinful guilt. But God in His grace lead me (sin, confusion, guilt, shame, and all) to the cross of Jesus Christ where my sin was paid for in full. To recieve that kind of pardon I knew, by the grace of God, that I had to submit to Jesus Christ as God Almighty, anything less would be an insult to the on who came to serve.

Let me encourage you to look, not so much at the creation of things but at your own state before a holy and just God. Do you know what sin is, do you know that you will be held accountable on the judgement day. But at the same time you need to know this that Jesus Christ came to save sinners, Christ died for the ungodly, God has demonstrated His love toward mankind by killing Jesus Christ and all thos ewho repent and call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved from sin, death, confusion, fear,and hopelessness.

My encouragement to you is to call out to Jesus Christ knowing that a broken a contrite spirit He will never turn away.

The bible has this verse: faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. If you keep listening to those who tell you the bible isn't true, you will be confused. Find a good bible study and really read it, pray to God that He would guide you and show you the truth.

God is not the author of confusion. The day you realize you can trust the bible as His word will be a wonderful day for you. I pray it happens soon.

do not worry... your science teacher was not around when earth was created....she is going by stories told to her....scientists have no proof..they weren't around either.....they just want a godless explanation for the existence of the world...so they believe this....scientists have no proof of a big bang either..

no one was there in the beginning except God, so believe Him...

also, your science teacher is not a scientist...she is an education major, not a science major....her understanding of science is on a high school level...if you are in high school

i am a scientist...much of science is good..... and much is a bunch of baloney....evolution is baloney
