The Bible sets forth that the first man was created perfect, in the image and likeness of his Creator, and that when on trial for life everlasting, he was disobedient and came under the sentence of death; and that all trouble, all sin and sorrow, pain and death for the past six thousand years is the penalty, the result, of that fall from obedience and harmony with God.

Evolution claims that man started as a cousin to the monkey and that instead of falling into sin and death, an evolution process has been bringing him up, up, up to his present high elevation. This theory, having no place for sin or a fall, finds, of course, no place or need for a recovery, through a Redeemer, a Savior. The two theories are absolutely opposed. Whoever believes the Darwinian theory cannot, logically, be a Christian. Whoever is a Christian cannot, logically, hold to the Darwin theory.

The human organism, in its various parts and functions, is a masterpiece of design and workmanship, combining mechanical, chemical, and electrical principles, superbly interrelated and interacting with harmony and precision. It is so extremely complicated that modern science is not able to explain its every operation. It is obviously beyond human ingenuity. Thus it clearly exhibits the hand of a Master Designer and Craftsman. In addition to his physical attributes, man is endowed with a high degree of intelligence and with moral and ethical qualities, which could not possibly come by chance.

The theory of evolution utterly lacks proof. All about us we see that the various creatures are of fixed natures which do not evolve to higher natures. Although those who hold to this theory have tried repeatedly, they have never succeeded in blending different species, or in producing a new fixed variety. No instance is known where one kind has changed into another kind. Surely if unintelligent nature were the creator or evolver, the process would continue, and there would be no such thing as fixed species, since without intelligence nothing would arrive at fixed conditions. Evolution would be a fact today, and we would see about us fish becoming birds and monkeys becoming men. But no missing link has ever been found, nor will be. It does not exist.

Many Christians have attempted to harmonize the theory of evolution with the Bible. They say that the Genesis account of the creation of man is merely allegorical; that Adam was not a direct creation of God, but was the end result of millions of years of evolution from the ape and was, in fact, a monkey-man; that mankind has been evolving upward ever since and steadily developing higher physical and mental qualities, until, in the far distant future, the human family will have attained perfection. But this conception, besides being contrary to known facts, is diametrically opposed to the Bible. The two cannot be reconciled.

If the evolution theory is correct, there would be no necessity for Jesus Christ. Why? Because the whole plan of God, as revealed in the Bible, relates to the fall of man into sin and death and his salvation therefrom. If there was no fall but, on the contrary, man has been evolving upward, where then is the need of a Savior? The Bible throughout teaches that there is to be a restitution of mankind, a restoration to a condition previously enjoyed. Every Prophet of God spoke of restitution. Acts 3:21 points us to “Times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.” If the theory of evolution be correct, restitution would be a great calamity to humankind. It would mean a return to monkey-man.

We may be sure that those who hold fast to the teachings of the Bible will come out on the right side of the argument in the long run. The endeavor of worldly-wise men to get away from God’s Book has led many of them to extremes of thought and of statement, which someday will be fully rectified to their shame. The Bible foretells this, saying, “The wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.” (Isa. 29:14).

The following booklet will help the sincere seeker to be convinced of the truth of Biblical creation and the falsehood of the evolution theory.
