“You Don’t know the Half-Truth of It”

ctf • June 26, 2015

The clarion call of many ministries in the creation science education camp is also that of Creation Truth Foundation — “worldview matters.” It surely does. Errors in worldview have lately promoted the worst of the world’s lack of inhibitions as reflected in matters of STS (science-technology-society).

Worldview error is what causes the world to celebrate the “courage” of man in his 60’s who once achieved rock-star status as the male role model for American boys … now a “hero” as he decides to become a gelding. Insane. And, of course, by worldview error we mean any clear departure from the biblical worldview. One might think instant insanity might not be the result of departing from the authority of the Scriptures, but … just take one look around!

Worldview error has caused the world to celebrate the return to a century-ago debunked secular theory of the universe, which says that all matter and energy are eternal and had no beginning. Such is the latest new-and-improved version of the canonized Big Bang Theory of cosmology. Even as the science data forces them into more and more of a corner on this, their response is only to intensify their “atheistic apologetic” into high gear and “just try harder.”

As more distinctions blur in the definitions of “man” and “woman” and “marriage” and “family” it is no surprise to see science and politics trying desperately to legitimize these new and confused “definitions.” I remember Huey Lewis’ song “Whatever Happened to Old Fashioned Love” from the 80’s. Its prophecy has certainly come true.

And from whence cometh all this confusion? Much of our CTF staff were at a lecture by evo-atheist evangelist Richard Dawkins, at a nearby major university campus a few years back. The title of his lecture was “The Purpose of Purpose.” His conclusion (of course)? There is no purpose. Well then, what shall we say about that? “There is nothing new under the sun.” I guess we can’t be too surprised.

And it’s not even a new thing that our civilization should use “science” to “prove” that these extra-biblical worldview conclusions are valid. Just be on your guard. The “spirits of strong delusion” have surely been unleashed as predicted upon this current generation. What do we do? Remember our purpose. Remember our calling. We’re not perfect, but our Master is – and so is His Word. Hold fast. Stir up the gifts. The hour is late. The night is dark. Let His heavenly light shine forth in our human lives. Amen.

Keep thinking, DrJ

Summer of 2025 is two-thirds finished. We have taught at 7 different camp weeks along with 6 VBSes. Ryan and I have had a busy summer for the Kingdom. Our travels have stretched from Ohio to Colorado and all points in between. We have taught in churches and connected with many supporters and friends. This summer, as usual, ministry has taken us away from family for periods, but there has been great returns for the sacrifice - more than fifteen souls have been added to God’s eternal Kingdom and even more seeds planted with life-changing fruit produced, from the young to old. Again and again we encounter students that are fired up with a passion for knowledge of the Word of God. As these students have found answers to questions or faith-challenging issues, they are better equipped to share their faith. This summer we have had the opportunity to reconnect with many students whom we taught at a younger age. Now they are in their teens or heading to college. Their testimonies of strengthened faith because of the mission God has called us to is more than rewarding. It never gets old to meet grandparents, or even great-grandparents, during VBS that have lived their lives as followers of Christ yet have never seen the impact of Genesis to the Gospel. Just yesterday this happened with a grandmother who was overjoyed and appreciative of our teaching and message. Knowing more about dinosaurs Biblically allows for them to have new lines of communication with their cherished grandkids. Our ability to give these great warriors of the faith answers that can impact their families for eternity is priceless to us.  Please continue to lift us up in prayer as our summer is not over yet. As always, know that your support is making an impact for the Kingdom that we are eternally grateful for. If you are thinking about having us come next summer, don’t hesitate to contact us as summers fill quicker than the rest of the year. Summer has and will continue to be a crazy busy time for Kingdom work. Blessings.
