The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved in 50 Arguments
Williams, William A. (William Asbury)
Evolution
“And God said, ‘Let the waters under the expanse be gathered together
into one place (seas and oceans), and let the dry land appear’.” The
contraction of the cooling earth caused the elevation of the land, and
the draining of the waters into the seas. The geologist Lyell says,
“All land has been under water.” Hitchcock says, “The surface of the
globe has been a shoreless ocean.” “And the earth brought forth grass,
herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, wherein is
the seed thereof, after its kind.” Though the sun was not yet visible
on account of dense clouds and vapors, the warm, humid atmosphere was
suitable for the grass, herbs, and fruit trees,—three great classes
which represented the vegetable kingdom. Ages may have again
intervened.
The Fourth Day’s Work. Sun, moon and stars made visible.
“And God said, ‘Let lights be seen in the open expanse of heaven, to
divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for
seasons, and for days and years’.” “And God made the two great lights
to _appear_,” since neither had been seen through the thick clouds,
“the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the
night. He made the stars also to _appear_.” Though created first, the
stars would appear last. Ages more may have intervened.
The Fifth Day’s Work. Animal life in sea and air.
“And God said, ‘Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures,
and let birds fly above the earth upon the face of the expanse of the
heaven’.” “And God created great sea monsters, and every living
creature that moveth which the waters brought forth abundantly, after
their kinds, and every winged fowl after its kind.” Geology and Moses
alike testify that swarms of animals filled the seas. The ages rolled
on while they “filled the waters of the seas and fowl multiplied on the
earth.”
The Sixth Day’s Work. The creation of land-animals and man.
“And God said, ‘Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its
kind, cattle and creeping things, and beast of the earth after its
kind’.” The fifth day animals began to _swarm_ the seas; the sixth day,
to cover the land. “And God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after
our likeness’,” in “knowledge after the image of him that created him,”
(Col. 3:10) and “in righteousness and true holiness,” (Eph. 4:24). Yet
a professor in a great university was so dense as to insist that the
Scriptures taught that the likeness was not in “knowledge,
righteousness and true holiness,” but in the bodily form. “So God
created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him.” The
last of all creation as both revelation and science testify. The image
is mental and moral and spiritual. No such image in any other species.
