Remember Now Your Creator

G. Thomas Sharp • April 23, 2019

Both the history of religion and science, especially since 1870, exhibit the ease at which evolutionism encroached the sacred halls of Biblical faith. Never was so much mumbo-jumbo impinged upon so many unsuspecting people with so little evidence. The fact of the matter is that naturalistic origins have never been proven; it was just asserted carte blanche , and with great excitement and fervor! But proof or no proof, this world of make-believe rapidly was ingratiated into the secular university domain, and since then has taken the culture by storm…and our one nation under God has ceased to exist!

The rabid disbelief fostered by naturalism, it seems to me, is foundational to the rise of antichrist. One thing is for sure, godless evolutionism certainly has antichrist tendencies, and has for sure influenced a significant Biblical decline in the West!

The positive secular response to naturalism reminds me of a statement I once heard Dr. Gary Parker make. He was discussing the vehemence and bluster of evolutionists in their attempt to prove how something (as the first life form) can arise from nothing, and he remarked that many origin arguments are won simply because their proponents shout the loudest…more on this later!

The late Dr. Henry M. Morris, father of the 20 th century revival of Biblical Creationism, exhibited in his famous book, The Long War Against God (p. 22), the glaring nature of evolutionists by quoting Dr. Stanley Beck, entomologist at the University of Wisconsin:

Twentieth century biology rests on the foundation of evolutionary concepts … The evolutionary basis is also apparent in peripheral independent fields such as chemistry, geology, physics and astronomy. No central scientific concept is more firmly established in our thinking, our methods, and our interpretations, than that of evolution. (Stanley D. Beck, Bioscience 32, Oct. 1982, p. 732)

But what is far more perilous is the development of a significantly weakened and evolutionized Christian evangel. Hundreds of Christian disciples (if not thousands) have been schooled in “so-called” accredited science programs immersed in godless evolutionism, and as a result have become protagonists for some form of evolutionized explanation of Creation. It seems as if we have forgotten the wisdom of Solomon, “Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth…fear God and keep His commandments.” (Ecclesiastes 12:1,13)

There are moments in life that we experience the Lord’s Providence, which is the continual guiding and caring of us for His purposes. We may go though trials and suffering now to refine our faith in preparation for eternity. Other times we may see it for the here and now, with the aligning of plans for His purpose in our life, maybe with the opening or closing of a door. Many times we see Providence only in hindsight, looking back on life and seeing His hand working, molding and inspiring us for His plans and to His glory. I can see the Lord’s Providence at many times over the course of my life. Early in my grade school years I developed a love for building models I was recently reminded, along with my father, that we built a train set together in our basement. Following that, I began to build model cars and airplanes. I now know that love of building, tinkering and problem solving was Providence preparing me for this ministry. The Lord taught me early on how to stay focused and pay attention to detail. What I thought was only a hobby at the time is now something I must use on a regular basis in things such as fossil restoration, building crates, trailer and vehicle maintenance for our mobile museum. Later in high school, while active in church, the Lord called me to serve our children’s church ministry. I began to help teach others about Jesus. It seemed insignificant at the time. I remember helping in lesson times and the puppet ministry. I even was cast as “Pastor Rufus” in one of our ongoing puppet skits. My opportunities to share Christ and be an example to those younger than I was tremendous. Again through His Providence, the Lord was guiding me and calling me to ministry. He developed in me the love of teaching His Word to others, priceless to me today. Then in college Providence brought Theresa and I together. The Lord knew exactly who I needed to be my bride for life. She is strong in my weakness and more Christ-like than anyone I know. She is the perfect helpmate and partner for me in ministry as well, which has so far been 34 years, to be exact. Many times the Lord has used her discernment to direct me through a situation that I did not see correctly. I am thankful every day for Providence that brought us together in life and eternal work. As I look back on my life, there are more Providential moments than I have space to write. Most of those times have directly guided me to this specific ministry and my call to preach and teach His Word. Looking back on life and identifying those moments of Providence from the Lord is humbling and awe-inspiring. Please take a moment to remember your own moments when Providence has been evident in your life. This ministry is about identifying Providence from the beginning. His plan from the start is us spending eternity in His presence. Our sin messed some things up, but not His plan. He always has and always will know exactly how to guide and care for us so that we bring Him the glory, now and eternally. There is not a month that goes by that we here at CTF don’t praise the Lord for His Providence through you, our supporters and sustainers. Join with me in thanks for His Providence each day, guiding as only our Creator and Savior could do. Psalms 31:3-5 Blessings.
