Evolution Needs a New Name: Devolution

For the message about Christ’s death on the cross is nonsense to those who are being lost; but for us who are being saved it is God’s power. The scripture says,
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise
and set aside the understanding of the scholars.”
So then, where does that leave the wise? or the scholars? or the skillful debaters of this world? God has shown that this world’s wisdom is foolishness!
(1 Corinthians 1:18-20) Good News Translation

There were two horses on Noah’s ark but now there are at least seven species in genus Equus. That’s speciation or macro-evolution. It’s not a problem because the process of evolution has a scriptural context.

The Fifth Day

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
(Genesis 1:20-23) KJV

We don’t have any problem with the process of evolution. We would even go so far as to say that speciation happens. Let’s face it, Noah’s Ark was only so big.

Evidence is Irrelevant

This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are also suffering
(2 Thessalonians 1:5) ESV

The physical world that we can see is evidence of its past. A fossil skull, for example, is proof that something happened at an earlier time. What we think it’s evidence of is based on our point of view.

Evolution or Jesus?

Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”
(Genesis 2:15-17) NKJV

Evolution is the passage of heritable traits from generation to generation, it requires billions of years of death and dying before humans could sin. The Bible says that there was no death before sin.
