Nature—Flawed by the Curse

Answers with Ken Ham

This is Ken Ham, inviting you to Kentucky to see the life-size Noah’s Ark at Ark Encounter.

Some Christians view nature as the “67th book of the Bible,” putting creation on the same level as God’s Word.

Now they say this partly because they believe the fossil record is millions of years old. And since the fossil record is part of nature, which they say is the 67th book, they say God’s revelation tells us the Earth is very old.

Well, God’s Word tells us creation groans from sin. You can’t claim a fallen creation is on the same level as the perfect, infallible Word of God!

The Bible makes it clear that the universe is only thousands of years old, and that death and fossils came after sin.
