What is a young person to believe? Well, if they don’t have a strong enough biblical foundation along with knowledge of confirmation from real science [and honest education], they can be easy prey for acceptance of false so-called science.

I have heard Yale graduate and writer Eric Metaxas say in a recorded interview, “If you send your child to college or university for an education, be sure not to send them with an open mind.”
He knew by sad experience the devastation that can be caused in one’s life by exposure to professors who are anti-God, anti-Christian, and anti-Bible. This is why it is so important for young people to be thoroughly familiar with knowledge of the truth about the God who created them, and the supernatural Book, the Bible, He has provided for us as an infallible guide for this life and extending into eternity.
George Washington wrote:
“A Bible and a newspaper in every house, a good school in every district–all studied and appreciated as they merit–are the principal support of virtue, morality, and civil liberty” (nas.org/blogs/article/ u_s_founding_fathers).
Roger Sherman, Signer of the Declaration of Independence and United States Constitution wrote:
“That the scriptures of the old and new testaments are a revelation from God, and a complete rule to direct us how we may glorify and enjoy him” (learnreligions.com).
Dr. Ralph Reed, Founder and Chairman of the Faith & Freedom Coalition writes:
“America’s history is being erased and rewritten by America’s schools, colleges and universities, the media, Big Tech companies and the Cancel Culture…America’s children and college students are being taught by our schools that America was built on racism and evil” (Faith & Freedom Coalition, www.ffcoalition.com).
There is not space in this article to go into all the reasons why these attacks against the Judeo-Christian founding of America are happening, but we know the source must be from the enemy of God, Satan. In other words it is a spiritual attack from the powers of darkness perpetuated by those walking in darkness.
From my book Found Wanting: America Needs Revival Now, first published in 2016:
“Without a strong spiritual foundation there is bound to be moral, educational and political deterioration, as well as cultural chaos and confusion. The enemy of God is strategically clever by taking our educational institutions hostage in order to promote a humanistic evolutionary philosophy. If I were Satan and I wanted to come up with a philosophy to influence people away from belief in the Bible and a Creator, especially the young, what better philosophy is there than evolution? What better philosophy than one that convinces people they evolved from a lower form of life such as apes. What better philosophy than one that says all of life and humans are products of unplanned random mutations, and therefore not accountable to a Creator God?” (122 123).
However, almost all of America’s Founding Fathers were well aware of their accountability to the Creator. The Declaration of Independence reads:
“We hold these truths to be evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with unalienable Rights, that among these are life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness” (italic emphases mine).
So, what can Christians do in response to the attacks of the enemy? Simply put, we should continue to obey the commission of our Lord Jesus to be His witnesses in all situations of life. Remember, the early Christians did not let the mighty Roman Empire intimidate them from obeying their calling.
“This is where a biblical creation ministry comes into play. I have observed what happens to young people who become interested in learning and studying biblical creationism. They get excited and motivated to study for themselves when they discover information from the sciences that confirms the historical record of the Bible. When they realize they can actually believe the Genesis account of creation as real literal history, and that real science—whether biology, astronomy, geology, paleontology, chemistry, or archaeology—also supports the accuracy and reliability of the Bible, they are greatly encouraged in their faith.
“Many young Christian people are confused. In church they hear that biblical world history spans approximately 6000 years. But in public education they hear that the Bible is just an old-fashioned religious book with no relevance for today’s world, and that the real facts about history are found in modern science. They are told the universe is over 13 billion years old (this unscientific guess changes from time to time), and the earth is 4.5 billion years old. What is a young person to believe? Well, if they don’t have a strong enough biblical foundation along with knowledge of confirmation from real science [and honest education], they can be easy prey for acceptance of false so-called science as mentioned in Scripture (See 1 Timothy 6:20). This is a very real battle today. Again, Satan is using a clever and diabolical strategy that brings deception into the majority of America’s educational institutions—even those that originally began with strong Judeo-Christian foundations.
“With all of this in mind I believe this is why God gave me the vision for a creation museum ministry in the geographical area of America known as the Bible Belt. Biblical creation museum ministries are effective and needed to counteract false evolutionary teaching with the truth of God’s Word as supported and confirmed by real empirically verified science.
With God’s help, our creation museum stands for the truth of the Bible without compromise. Hundreds [now thousands] of young people and all ages who come through our museum can experience their faith being strengthened. As biblical creationists who accept the Genesis account of creation just as it reads, and are not afraid of science; in fact, we love real science. True empirical science is a friend of biblical truth. How could it not be so if the Bible is the true inspired revelation given to us by our Creator God? He is the Master Designer and the One who set in motion the amazing mathematical and orderly laws of science. Without such design and order in our universe, empirical science as we know it would not be possible” (Found Wanting, 128 129).
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).

We love helping people put the truths of the authority and reliability of God‘s Word into their hearts. We also enjoy getting resources for these truths into their hands. And with the holiday season coming up, the bookstore can be a blessing both to the ministry and to your family and friends!
Everyone has a worldview, and every worldview has questions that it must answer. The truth will naturally produce the best and most sensible answers, and the Bible does just that.
“It’s that time of the year again: Our monthly Creation Classes are about to relaunch for the season! For those who haven’t been to one yet, these informative classes are a time of fun, fellowship, and faith-building presentations….“
