LOGOS: INFORMATION always comes from an INTELLIGENCE
LAWS of logic, language-words-meaning, mathematics, &
science actually FORM all of
space/time/matter/energy/LIFE & LOVE.
These LAWS are INFORMATION and the source of everything.
They’re NON-physical realities that existed before the natural
physical universe came into being. They’re SUPER-natural.
Scripture says that our CREATOR is the LOGOS, (John 1:118)
It means source of LOGIC/Information (the WORD).

He®made
the LAWS,© so
He’s the LAWMAKER
– CHRIST.
GOSPEL = Good News vs. Bad News
WHY do you think God created creation?
He was not bored.
He was not lonely.
God is LOVE (agape) 1 John 4 (Father/Son/Holy-Spirit)
- together eternally in a pure unselfish relationship of GIVING
THEY created to share HIS LIFE & LOVE w/ SOULS
- relationships NOT just rules-laws
- the LAW of our Creator Christ is LOVE (John 13:34-35; Rom
10:8-10)

SCIENCE (World) & SCRIPTURE (Word):
SCIENCE says think logically & believe based on evidence
- Direct   ……………..…   Indirect
(Example = BONES – what vs. when/how)
- Hypothesis-Theory-Law?
* CAN only support either of these with evidence &
tests.
* CAN NOT prove either one as true or fact.
* BUT can prove either one to be false = falsify
SCRIPTURE says think logically & believe based on evidence
- Prov 14:12 & 15; Heb 11:1; etc. …..
- Smoke is evidence for belief in an unseen fire.
- Creation and history (HIS-story)
. . . . are evidence
for our unseen

EVIL-UTION? MICRO-EVO? MACRO-EVO?
- struggle, survival of fittest, pain, fear, suffering, & death
MICRO-EVOLUTON = a true
reality
MACRO-EVOLUTION = a false
belief
BUT, it’s just natural selection.
It’s a belief that somehow over time
NEW BIO-INFO was produced.
It’s just the selecting of already
existing genes (BIO-INFO).
No new major structures or new
kinds of creatures are formed.
Only darker/lighter,
bigger/smaller

- made totally NEW CREATURE
KINDS?
- made microbes into mice,
monkeys, and men
Different KINDS are NOT related.
® Good Shepherd Initiative
- made totally NEW
PARTS/PROCESSES?
It’s a blind belief in many unseen,
unknown mechanisms instead of
God.

MACRO-evolutionists believe M&M’s made Everything!
Mystery Mechanisms that made everything NATURALLY
1. UNIVERSE? ( NOTHING + M&M  Info/Laws, Universe
2. LIFE? (NON-living chemicals + M&M  Bio-Info/DNA/Machines?)
3. KINDS? (SURVIVAL + M&M  New bio-info DNA, new organisms?)
4. REPAIR? (DNA + M&M  Fixed MUTATION meltdown?)
5. MORALITY? (Molecules + M&M  Minds that are
somehow able to know GOOD vs. BAD

IT’S NOT A MINOR ISSUE. It’s a matter of life or death.
1. GOD: Good Shepherd or Great Predator?
2. GRAPHE: Is the Bible really God’s trustworthy Word to us?
3. GOSPEL: If there was no first Adam, was Jesus death
useless?
4. GLORIFY: What image or character are we to reflect?
Is it the Creator’s love & cooperation,
or selfish survival & competition?

WHAT’S COMING? In your LIFE? After you DIE?
NEW CREATION: Isa 11; Rom 8; under HIS LAW of LOVE
- He is the only source of pure unselfish love and life
- He is the JUDGE and He is the only SELF-existent Being.
- The Hebrew term “bara” means to CREATE new out of nothing.
- Only God can do this (2nd Law of Thermodynamics).
- He HELD all things together totally at the beginning
- His form of punishment is SEPARATION
* He LETS GO & things fall apart. He does NOT lash out.
- Our SIN causes SEPARATION. SUFFERING, & DEATH.
We cannot be good enough by our efforts.
We need Him to forgive us
& transform us (metamorphosis).
