The Evolution of Man Scientifically Disproved in 50 Arguments
Williams, William A. (William Asbury)
Evolution
“How can intelligent men and women underestimate the Christ? He is no
longer a wandering Jew with a few followers; He is the great fact of
history and the growing figure of all time—there is no other growing
figure in all the world today. Men—the greatest of them—rise and reign
and pass away; only CHRIST reigns and remains. They shall not take away
our Lord. The Christian Church will not permit the degrading of its
founder; it will defend at all times, everywhere and in every way, the
historical Christ. It believes that ‘there is none other name under
heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.’ No diminutive
Messiah can meet the religious need of the world today and throughout
the centuries. Christ for all and forever, is the slogan of the church.
There has been apostasy in every age; attacks upon Christianity have
been disguised under cloaks of many kinds, but it has withstood them
all—‘The hammers are shattered but the anvil remains.’ The church will
not yield now; it will continue its defense of the Bible, the Bible’s
God and the Bible’s Christ until ‘every knee shall bow and every tongue
confess.’
“While it resists the attacks upon the integrity of God’s Word and the
divinity of the Saviour, it will pray that those who are now making the
attack may come under the influence of, and yield their hearts to, Him
whose call is to all, whose hand is all power and who promises to be
with His people ‘always, even unto the end of the world,’ The Apostles’
Creed which has expressed the faith of the Christian Church for so many
centuries shall not be emasculated by modernism.
“‘Faith of our fathers! living still
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene’er we hear that glorious word—
Faith of our fathers! holy faith,
We will be true to thee till death’!”
46. CAMOUFLAGE OF TERMS
During the late world war, objects were concealed and the enemy
deceived, by “camouflage.” Many undertake to deceive or to hide their
meaning by a camouflage of terms. These terms are chosen to conceal or
deceive. Terms that suggest advance, improvement, learning, science,
etc., are used to describe unworthy theories, beliefs and movements. It
is an unfair trick to win and often meets with undeserved success.
Evolution in the sense of growth and development, is true of a part of
animal and plant life, and in this sense is undisputed. Some speak of
the growth of a child and of all progress, as evolution. In the sense
at issue, it means the development of all the 3,000,000 species of
animals and plants, from one or a few primordial germs, without design
or intelligence, or the aid of a Creator. A distinguished surgeon
declares that evolution from the monkey is mere non-sense but that life
is a constant evolution,—two senses in the same sentence. Such
confusion of meaning brings science into disrepute. The meaning is
shifted to suit.
