Eternal Purpose

Matt Miles • May 14, 2020

     There are some people, even Christians, out there that question the importance and/or purpose of a ministry like Creation Truth. They usually look at our Mobile Museum of Earth History fossil exhibit and say, “So what?” or something along the lines of “Dinosaurs don’t really matter when it comes to salvation.” It is important to remember that the purpose of this ministry is not solely tied to dinosaurs or science. Yes, we deal with both of those issues, but our purpose runs much deeper to the spiritual authority that Jesus Christ holds for eternal salvation.

     Creation is the single most important moment in the salvation process. Some people would begin arguing with that statement in favor of the Cross or Resurrection. While both of those events are absolutely essential to salvation, they are not the most important. Without the creation of everything by the Lord Jesus Christ, there is simply no authority for Him to save us. He has authority over all because He made it all. Because He is our Creator first, He can save us for all eternity by giving His life on the cross. Through the resurrection we understand His conquering over death with life, and thus giving it to us. He tells us in His infallible Word of how He created it all and shows His identity as Cause, Maker, and Sustainer. Without that, we would be bound hopeless in our sinful death.

     Our mission and purpose at Creation Truth Foundation is to show unequivocally that in the beginning the Word of God started His plan and purpose for us, as recorded in the pages of Genesis. The historical record must be right from the beginning or the rest of the Bible becomes just “good” teaching stories with no redemptive value. But if the historical record of Genesis is correct as written, then and only then is our eternal salvation sure with all the hope we desperately need at this moment in time.  Our purpose and importance at CTF is to continue to battle the skepticism that is running rampant in the church today. Please consider lifting us in your prayers over the next several months as the Covid crisis has significantly impacted our ability to be in the place we are called to be, the local church. We will begin traveling as soon as the invitation is extended for us to come. We are ready to go and encourage the faithful to trust the entirety of the Bible because of who our Creator says He is in Genesis. Blessings.

Lighthouse in front of a Milky Way Galaxy sky

As we begin a new year, it brings new potential and a figurative “clean slate”. Yet at all times it is always good to remember that the Lord never changes and neither does His purposes. His desire is that all come to Him for salvation. As it is not all will seek their Creator, yet He is always at work around us guiding life through the present sinful, cursed world. His purposes are always to bring glory to himself as our Great Almighty Lord God. This divine guiding, moving, and protecting of His Spirit in the affairs of life is called Providence , our theme for the year here at Creation Truth. His Providence has always been at work since the beginning, guiding for the purpose he has designed us for. Over the course of history, we as people have missed it or chosen not to follow it. Providence of the Lord is what guided His people out of Egypt to the Promised Land. Even while suffering judgment for their sin in the desert, there was Providence , providing for their needs with daily manna and encouraging them on to the Promised Land. At just the right time, Providence bestowed to us a Savior, Jesus Christ. Never would we have planned or made provision for the Savior of the world in the manner He came to earth. All of His work while in the flesh was done to point us to Him and His Glory. Providence was fulfilled on the cross for all eternity with the way for all to find the Lord and salvation, to be guided out of death and overcome the trial of this life through His death, burial and resurrection. Providence , 250 years ago, guided our country’s forefathers to seek a land to freely worship their Creator and Savior, with freedom from tyranny and a pursuit of liberty for all. Even though not all were followers of the Lord, it was still more than evident that they knew His Providence had a protecting hand on us. Only by His great Providence did we become a country, for the Lord knew we would become a beacon of that freedom and, ultimately, the only true freedom that comes from Christ. Through many trials and failures in history we have sinned before our Lord, and we must continually repent and seek Him for forgiveness. His Providence has allowed our nation of people from many tongues and tribes to melt together. We have been, and I pray continue to be, the largest Christian nation in the world, proclaiming who He is before all else.  This year, as we focus on His Providence , may you seek Him and be reminded of all the times He has guided, protected and blessed you for His name. David wrote in Psalm 31:3-5 of the Lord’s Providence : “For You are my high rock and my fortress; For Your name's sake You will lead me and guide me. You will bring me out of the net which they have secretly laid for me, For You are my strength. Into Your hand I commit my spirit; You have ransomed me, O Yahweh, God of truth.”(LSB) We at Creation Truth Foundation look forward to another year of opportunities to serve, champion, and exalt His Name. May you be guided, protected and blessed through Providence this year.
