At Creation Experience Museum we have sought the direction of the Lord and have made the decision to close the museum to visitors until Wednesday, April 1, 2020. Most of our guests come from out of state, and in order to avoid exposing our tour guides and staff to possible infection, we believe this is the wisest course of action for the time being. So, let’s all be sensible and follow the advice of the health authorities by following careful hygiene, and let’s pray and not fear. Our God is much bigger than any virus!
There are so many promises in God’s Word to encourage us when facing difficult times. In fact, trials and tests should be seen by believers as opportunities to put faith in God for victorious outcomes. Scriptures such as,
“This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith” (1 John 5:4), and the words of Jesus, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes” (Mark 9:23), and, “If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you” (John 15:7).
So, what should we be doing as Christians in the face of this worldwide virus attack that has now been designated as a pandemic?
We should be praying (as our president has requested) and fasting as led by the Holy Spirit, that God will deal with the situation according to His perfect will. Pray for the protection of our loved ones, our brothers and sisters in Christ, and for all people everywhere. Could something like this actually draw God’s people into a closer relationship with Him and result in spiritual renewal and revival? Let’s be sure to pray as the Holy Spirit leads us.
God bless you all—Rod Butterworth
We’ve all been asked the question. “Why does God allow evil in the world?” But there is another side to that question, a query that cannot be addressed by logic, history, or facts. It’s the heart behind the question, often a bruised heart deeply wounded by evil, loss, or betrayal.
We pay tribute to one of the fathers of the modern Creation movement. Here is a look at his life, influences, and how he contributed to the battle for Genesis.
We’ve seen a lot of popularity growth in the Flat Earth Theory, and its proponents try to tie themselves to Creationism. Here is a Christian response to these efforts.
In the previous month of Creation Matters, we examined answers to the question “How do we know Genesis (and for that matter the entire Old Testament) has been accurately preserved to our time?” In this article, we will unpack a very, very brief overview of the scientific and scholarly side of this question, touching on early manuscripts, scribal practice, and ancient witnesses to the O.T. text.
