Does anyone have the right to murder an innocent human? Pro-choice arguments for abortion are refuted in this episode.
Science continues to reveal more complexity at the smallest levels of life. As a result the evolutionary account of its origins is rapidly trending toward mythology. May God receive the glory for His incredible creation!
If evolution was true, the further back into history we look should reveal a gradual decline in man’s intelligence. Science shows otherwise. Man, created in God’s image, has always been intelligent.
On July 15, 1942, six P–38 Lightning fighters and two B–17 bombers left a secret US Army air base headed for a British airfield to fight Hitler. They never made it. Find out how this story relates to the Ice Age and the authenticity of scripture.
Cloning and stem cell research technologies have been around for a while now, and they often generate controversy. Discover the Biblical response that Christians should be taking regarding these things.
Can certain geologic features like tillites, chalk beds and paleosols be explained by a global flood? Skeptics say no. Find out how the Biblical flood makes more sense of the very features used to try and disprove it!
Does the Bible say pi equals 3? Does it mention unicorns as real animals? Does it say that insects have 4 legs? Skeptics answer yes, but are wrong, again!
Jesus prayed that believers, “would be brought into complete unity, or become perfectly one”. Jesus prioritized unity. Listen to this episode to learn how this relates to Christians who hold different views of creation.
What are mammoths? When did they live? How did they live? Why did they become extinct and can they be cloned? Find out about these creatures and how they relate to the creation/evolution debate on this week’s revealing episode.
We are often told creation is religion and evolution is science. But is evolution really science? On this week’s episode, see how the theory of evolution exhibits most of the characteristic fallacies of pseudoscientific theories.
Many people were taught that fossils are evidence of things happening slowly over millions of years. But they’re not. On this week’s episode, find out why standard evolutionary explanations for fossil formation don’t work.
Updated research shows much bigger differences between chimp and human DNA. The significant differences refute human evolution.
Racism based on skin shade exists. However, Critical Race Theory analyzes racism based on faulty assumptions and faulty reasoning. (part 2 next week)
A popular myth is that radioactive dating methods confirm the geologic time-scale and the concept of human evolution. The methods appear so impressive that many Christians accept them as evidence that the earth is very old. Many have been taught that radiometric dating methods are absolute. But exactly how solid are those dates?
Many Christians wonder about what our eternal existence will ‘look like’. Bible believing Christians know that God is going to create a New Heavens and a New Earth. Hints about what it will be like are found in Genesis.
One of the most common questions asked of Christians is some version of: “If God is so loving, why are there bad things in the world?” The implication being that if God created this world in the state it is in, He can’t be ‘very good’ Himself. And the Bible explicitly says that God created everything there is in 6 days. So when exactly were bad things created?
Some people think that evolution has nothing to do with an individual’s philosophical outlook. But atheism can’t exist without evolution! The question of origins has only two possible answers, and for atheists there is only one choice.
The Bible describes a global flood about 1600 years after creation. The most devastating catastrophe ever recorded would surely leave evidence, wouldn’t it? So what are consequences of Noah’s Flood?
Easter is a celebration of Jesus resurrection. This is the central event of Christianity, and continuously attacked by skeptics.
Contrary to what many popular Old Earth Creationists have said, the Reformers held to a ‘Young Earth’ position. Examine the documented quotes from these esteemed theologians that put to rest any doubt as to their biblical creationist position.
How old is the earth? Six to ten thousand years old? Older? How precisely can a creation date be calculated? Why do most scientists believe the earth is old? This episode explores one of the most controversial issues in the church, and answers these and many more questions about when God created.
God described His original creation as 'very good' but did that include the death of animals before Adam sinned? We explore the implications of animals dying before the Fall.
Contrary to scripture, old earth creationists and theistic evolutionists often claim that there were animals dying long before Adam and Eve. But did creatures just live happy peaceful lives and then quietly die? What does the fossil record reveal?
A persistent evolutionary argument is the concept of vestigial (left over) organs in humans, supposedly inherited from man’s evolutionary ancestors. One popular idea is that humans are sometimes born with tails.
Charles Darwin is often presented as a brilliant, iconic figure who singlehandedly changed the scientific landscape. His picture is on the British ten pound note, and he is looked up to by many as a great scientist. But research over the last 100 years reveals a different story.
Does it matter whether it was global or local? What does the scripture actually say? If it was a global flood, where’s the evidence for it? These and other questions are answered in this episode.
Does belief in old earth creation or young earth creation impact the Gospel? If so, how? If not, are these topics side issues? How important are they really? Should they be included in your church's Statement of Faith?
The theory of evolution is described in much detail in most classrooms today. Names, dates, classifications, etc., all seem to point to a very ‘scientific’ history of the world. But what about Creation? Does it have a cohesive historical narrative that can be backed up scientifically? Absolutely! Look at the ‘big picture’ of the Bible’s history on this week’s show.
Continuing from last week, we examine more failed climate predictions, find the root of the claim that “97 % of scientists” agree that climate change is man-made, and consider the dangers of a singular focus on fixing the climate.
Underlying assumptions and worldviews behind different approaches to climate change are summarized along with questionable scientific models.
Many people say the Muslim god and the God of the Bible are the same. If that’s true then the Koran and the Bible should agree with one another, but they don’t. Find out why a belief that the god of the Koran could never be reconciled with the God that wrote Genesis.
God’s Word says that animals were created to reproduce ‘after their kind’ (not to evolve into other kinds over millions of years). But what is a ‘kind’? If new species are being produced, does that support creation or evolution? Are the ‘kinds’ mentioned in Genesis the same as today’s species? Find out!
Rapid speciation has always been a cornerstone of Young Earth Creationist belief. If all of the animals we see today are descended from the limited amount of animals on Noah’s Ark then rapid speciation must have occurred. See the stunning evidence of this very thing and why it is so challenging to evolutionists and ‘Old Earth’ creationists alike.
Creationists often point to the incredible evidence of design in nature as proof of God’s existence. But what about things that don’t look well designed or appear to have been designed to do ‘bad things’? Evidence of ‘design’ is not enough. Find out why the true history in the Bible is essential to understand the world we live in.
Many seem to think Christianity is for simple, uneducated people who are out of touch with science. This week we share a little of the growing, positive evidence for the truth of creation and Christianity. It really is a great time to be a Christian!
Whoops! What happens when scientists find fossils in the ‘wrong’ evolutionary sequence? This week, learn how the neat, ordered sequence of fossils required by evolution theory has serious problems, but fits wonderfully with the Bible. The facts reveal that the evolutionary timeline is wrong.
Is it true that no ‘real’ scientist can be a creationist? Many of the founding fathers of modern science were Bible-believing Christians, as were many of the lesser known scientists who expanded our scientific knowledge. This episode examines the lives of brilliant men of science who were also men of God.
Dynamic street evangelist Henry De Roos gives practical advice on how to use evidence about God’s creation to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Continuing on from previous episodes, “What the church fathers believed about Genesis” and, "What the Reformers believed about Genesis”, we now examine the words of the Son of God in His written revelation to us. What did Jesus believe about Genesis?
In the famous tale from Homer’s “Odyssey” the fortress of Troy was defeated by the Greek army leaving a large wooden horse (secretly filled with soldiers) behind as a supposed gift. The Trojans willingly took it into their city leading to their defeat. Today’s episode retraces how ‘deep time’ infiltrated the church in a similar way, and led to the lack of biblical authority we see today.
There are a variety of views on creation that could be called the ‘creationist’ view. Whether Christians hold to the Gap Theory, Day Age Theory, Framework Hypothesis or Biblical (Young Earth) Creation, they all believe their interpretation is correct. Which one is correct? Find out who the real creationists are as we sort through the issues on today’s show.
Even evolutionist Richard Dawkins agrees “We have seen that living things are too improbable and too beautifully ‘designed’ to have come into existence by chance.” However, the truth is ‘design’ indicates a ‘designer’, and natural selection is inadequate to explain the amazing creatures featured on today’s show. Watch Richard and Calvin explain the amazing complexity of animals like the quick drawing Pistol shrimp, terrible termites and the tiny seahorse.
Biological evolution is a far less controversial topic among Christians than the age of the earth. But one event recorded in the Bible is the key to understanding the majority of the issues people have with the idea of ‘millions of years’.
Some evolution-believing Christians have declared that the theory of evolution is compatible with the Christian faith. Can evolution be blended with the Bible? This episode takes a close look at the damage this kind of thinking has inflicted on the church, Christian theology and the average person’s perception of God.
If the creation/evolution debate was simply about empirical science, the debate would have been over with years ago. So, why is it that the debate continues? Why can’t people from opposing views understand the other person’s position? Learn the key concept that will unlock your understanding of the origins debate.
The Nazi Holocaust is seen by many as a gruesome but aberrant event in history. But 60 years earlier the Darwinian idea that some humans are not fully human resulted in horrifying brutality perpetrated upon the Herero people in South-West Africa. The Holocaust of WWII serves as reminder of the fruit of evolutionary thinking that began long before and continues today.
‘Living Fossils’ are characterized as creatures found in the fossil record (supposedly millions of years old) that are seemingly identical to creatures living today. This is a thorny issue for evolutionists since Darwin proposed his evolutionary hypothesis. The evidence of ‘massive change over time’ is dwindling rapidly. Meanwhile the evidence supporting creation is growing rapidly!
For many people the age of the earth is a settled issue. Even many creationists believe the earth is millions of years old. But the original, main geological arguments used to solidify the concept of ‘deep time’ in the 1800’s have been abandoned today. It is time to re-examine the ‘millions of years’.
Transhumanists believe that humanity will evolve to the next level within our lifetime by utilizing modern technology. Explore the Darwinian roots of this growing worldwide movement and see how it exposes man’s sinful desire to ‘become God’.
God is the ultimate engineer! Recent scientific discoveries show amazing design in the living world, far exceeding our current technology. Engineers are attempting to copy this design as they invent new technology often without acknowledging the original Designer.
Similarity in living things is hailed as knock-down evidence for evolution. Find out why it actually powerfully supports Biblical creation.
Uniformitarianism (long shown by creationists to be an inadequate way to explain observable strata worldwide) was once the foundational ‘doctrine’ of the modern geologist. This has now changed to ‘Neo-catastrophism' for many. Why, and does this theory fare any better?
Can a physicist really accept a recent creation? Find out in this revealing interview with physicist Dr Jim Mason.
This episode provides a fascinating look at human culture through the eyes of one of the fathers of the modern creation movement. Author, speaker and founder of Creation magazine Dr Carl Wieland is our guest.
Everything (ultimately) progresses toward disorder. The second law of thermodynamics is often misused by both evolutionists and creationists. The clarity that Dr Wieland provides about this most fundamental law provides powerful support for the Christianity.
Why focus on the origins debate if it is not a salvation issue? How does a believer's view about Genesis and creation affect their view of salvation?
This episode tackles what is one of the biggest stumbling blocks to understanding the debate about origins: the difference between operational and historical science.
Wow, there really is evidence that dinosaurs lived after the flood, but the flood was less than 5000 years ago.
Are there any facts that are so powerful that anyone who hears them would believe creation? Powerful evidences for Biblical creation this week on Creation Magazine LIVE!
Biblical authority has been called the ‘issue of issues’ for Christians. This episode summarizes historical milestones that have led away from biblical authority.
Many scientists say that the evidence from genetics incontrovertibly shows humans did not originate from a single pair. This episode looks at specific arguments by bible skeptics and shows how wrong they are.
All Scripture is God-breathed, yet it was written by men. So, can we really trust it as completely accurate, or were factual errors included by the Bible's human authors?
Has the law of biogenesis (life begets life) been broken? Evolution says yes. However, when established scientific laws that describe the natural world are broken we recognize that as supernatural, or miraculous. So then, does the origin of life require the supernatural?
Do atheists believe in miracles or magic? They would say no, but believing that everything can develop without a supernatural creator requires it.
All thinking people have to answer the question of origins. This episode explores what atheists have to believe about where they came from.
Genetic mutations are occasionally beneficial, activating new functions in living things. These kinds of changes do not support evolution but fit well with biblical creation.
Extra-Biblical historical records testify to the ancient nations beginning as family units from Noah's descendants. This powerfully supports the Bible's history.
Jesus referred to the Genesis creation account as happening recently. But if God created over millions of years could Jesus be mistaken about creation?
Some Old Earth Creationists (such as Dr Hugh Ross) have taught that old earth teaching was common among the church fathers, and the a young earth interpretation is recent invention. In this episode we set the record straight by looking at what the church fathers actually said about how and when God created.
Do faith and facts relate to each other at all? Is there evidence for Christian faith? Yes! A biblical worldview is the best fit for the facts.
Continuing from previous episodes in past seasons, this week we look at a collection of Bible-supporting scientific evidences for a recent creation from a wide variety of fields.
Radiohalos are the result of nuclear decay. They provide powerful evidence that the earth is young and radiometric dating is highly inaccurate.
The public education system only endorses one view of origins. Would it be better if the scientific evidence for creation was also taught? Would it be more 'fair?
Genesis 6 records that the sons of God and the daughters of men produced the Nephilim. Several views are presented on the identity of the Nephilim.
Some Christians believe in evolution. Does this mean they are not Christians? Scientists and theologians are interviewed to answer this question.
Some Christian thinkers have been influenced by evolution to the point where they are questioning the Genesis account of creation including rejecting a historical Adam.
Skeptics accuse creationists of pushing ‘bad science’ and religious ideas. This episode examines evolution according to the evolutionists own criteria.
Science, creation, Genesis and spiritual growth. How do these things relate to each other?
Grand Canyon is often used as evidence for gradualism and evolution, however, examining the canyon shows that catastrophe, rather than time, carved it. Join us as we explore the Canyon via river raft. The geology of Grand Canyon testifies to the massive catastrophe that caused its formation.
Data from the 2015 flyby of Pluto confirmed biblical creationist predictions and posed serious challenges for the ‘millions of years’, evolutionary story.
The book of Romans says that the evidence of God’s creation is ‘clearly seen’ by all and that people are ‘without excuse’ for their disbelief (Romans 1:20). If evidence for creation is that obvious, why then does it seem that public education and media almost always present evidence as pointing to an evolutionary conclusion?
Are biblical creationists damaging Christianity by ignoring modern science? We have been accused of that, but the truth is exactly opposite. Science supports Scripture.
There are many good Christian organizations in the world today doing vital work. Where does Creation Ministries fit into all this and why are they worthy of support? This week we examine the critical role CMI plays in evangelism and the church.
Should Christians celebrate Christmas? Some people suggest that most Christmas holiday traditions came from the pagan world. Is Christmas based on pagan traditions?
There has been a long standing belief that man started extremely primitive and increased intellectually over time, but is this what the evidence shows? This week we look at the true history of ancient man and determine how smart he really was.
Fossils provide remarkable support for the Bible's account of history, beginning with creation and including a global flood. This week we focus on some fossils that are very difficult to fit into the 'millions of years' timescale, but fit wonderfully with the Bible.
Major scientific problems with the Big Bang are explained along with its incompatibility with Scripture!
Many Christians feel that Genesis is a side issue and that modern Christians should just focus on New Testament teachings. What would we know about origins if we only studied the New Testament?
Millions of people from all around the world have reported seeing what they think are aliens from outer space. How should Christians respond to these reports? The Bible provides direction for understanding aliens and UFOs.
What is the evidence for it? Where does it fit into Biblical history? What caused it? This weeks’ episode has the answers.
Leading evolutionists at a special conference agree that what is taught in classrooms today is inadequate in explaining our existence. But teaching that God created is not considered.
Is ape and human DNA really 99% similar? Many people believe humans evolved from and apelike ancestor, but science disagrees: we were created!
Jesus and Paul linked important doctrines to a real, historical Genesis. This episode explores tips on telling others the truth about how to be saved, considering that many think the Bible cannot be trusted.
Why is there so much death in the world? Is God responsible for it? How should Christians answer questions about why evil exists? This week on Creation Magazine LIVE! we consider the difficulty answering these questions if Genesis is not historical.
Why do evolutionary hoaxes and fakery continue to be taught? Some of the worst examples of this are explored on this week's episode.
Is it reasonable to be a Christian? What is the evidence that the Bible is really the 'word of God'? This episode of Creation Magazine LIVE! summarizes basic truths showing that Christianity is a logical, rational faith and not at all a blind faith.
Is the big bang the only possible explanation for what we see in the heavens? How observations in astronomy fit with the Bible -- this week on Creation Magazine LIVE!
Many students reject Christianity by university, but increasing numbers retain their faith. We reveal the highly effective tips that made the difference.
Were the events in Genesis actually historical? Where can we look for clues on how to interpret Genesis?
Skeptics claim Christians can’t do real science because of their faith and some believers say we don’t need science, just faith. So, do we believe 6-day creation because of science or because of the Bible?
We discuss the value of applying the mountains of creation evidence to your walk with Christ. Guidelines and some things to think about for developing a solid, unshakable faith.
Did God use evolution to create? Could Jesus and Paul be wrong about creation? Tune is as we discuss statements by leading theistic evolutionists.
Questions and objections to the Genesis creation account continue to lead many people away from Christianity. We tackle some of popular questions showing how evidence from science and history supports the Bible. Who did Cain marry? How did ‘bad things’ arise? Where are all the human fossils? How did people live so long before the flood? Who were the Nephilim? Where did all the races come from?
Archaeological discoveries provide powerful support for the accuracy of Scripture. Today we highlight fascinating portions of an interview with a leading archaeologist.
The Creator God of the Bible spoke the universe into existence. This great miracle is supported by the conclusions of science, logic, and history. Key reasons why God did not use evolution are summarized in this episode.
Are Christian deluding themselves? How do we know there is a God, and specifically the God revealed in the Bible?
Evidence for evolution from many fields has been thoroughly refuted but continues to be taught. We summarize key refutations from areas including: Vestigial organs, Junk DNA, Humans and chimp DNA 99% similar, Homology, Human embryos go through evolutionary stages, Transitional fossils, Pakicetus, Tiktaalik, Ape-men, Human evolution, Radiometric dating, Distant starlight.
Before we can hope to understand creation we need to be sure of the literary style of Genesis. Is Genesis poetry or does it record actual historical events? We compare the structure of biblical poetry with historical narrative and see which form of literature Genesis matches.

Living things change genetically, but those changes will not evolve a single cell into a human. Today we explain why.
How should Christians react to stories of strange lights in the sky and terrifying night time abductions? Aliens and UFOs and the Bible, on this week's episode.
Dinosaurs are typically discussed within a deep time/evolutionary framework. But, scientific and archeological discoveries present challenges to that understanding. Biblical history provides a superior framework for understanding dinosaur discoveries.
Did God use evolution to create the universe? Some people think so. Today we critique an article arguing for ‘evolutionary creation’.
When did God create? How long are the Genesis days? When was Adam created? Could millions of years be added into the Genesis account? These and other controversial questions are discussed.
Through eye-popping computer animation, based on recent scientific discoveries, this week's episode explores amazing biological machines at work in our bodies.
Did the flood really happen the way it’s described in the Bible? Or was it just a local flood that got exaggerated over time? Could Noah get all those animals on the ark? Where did the water come from?
How old are fossils? When was the fossil record produced? Could fossils have existed when God called His creation "very good"? The answer to these questions have profound effects on the Gospel. Tune for the answers in this mind expanding episode.
Continuing from last week, what was the world like before sin? Are science and faith actually incompatible? How do beliefs about where we came from affect morality?
What fossil evidence supports dinosaurs and humans living at the same time? Do scientists ever find dinosaurs buried with animals that were not supposed to have evolved yet?
Is creation/evolution a side issue for Christians? Does it have any impact on the Gospel? We’ll provide some clarity about the links between scientific discoveries and beliefs about the creation/evolution issue.
What is the nature of the relationship between faith and science? Can the apparent separation between science and faith ever be eliminated? Many scientists are convinced that evolution happened, does that mean it did? Join the discussion.
Have the continents moved apart? If so, when? Creationist Antonio Snider, the first person to publish on continental drift proposed that the continents separated during the Flood. Today his original idea is backed by cutting-edge computer modelling.
The Bible says that all people know there is a God because of what He created. Many atheists say there is no evidence for design. This episode explains how we recognize when something is designed and explores some of the amazing design all around us—the evidence for an intelligent Designer.
Could the Genesis creation days be millions of years long? Join us as we dive into the language of the biblical text and discover how long God took to create the universe.
All dating methods involve making assumptions. But many scientific dating methods, with reasonable assumptions, do not support deep time and an old universe. Hundreds of dating methods support a young earth and recent creation of the universe.
Natural selection is erroneously used as evidence for the evolution of people from a single cell. Actually, new discoveries involving natural selection support Biblical creation and powerfully refute evolution. This episode explains why the changes scientists observe will never lead to the evolution of one kind of animal into another, regardless of how much time is available.
Did God create millions of years ago, or only thousands? Can we know for sure? How accurately can a date be determined? Watch this week's episode for a discussion on these topics.
Surveys show that many youth who grow up in the church will leave. Today we examine these surveys and present a powerful solution that is already making a difference.
