A Day Is A Day | Ernie's Musings

 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night. (Psalm 90:4)

Theistic Evolution attempts to marry the biblical creation account with the theory of evolution. Theistic evolution proponents suggest that God is the ultimate Creator, but that He employed evolution to accomplish His creation. One of these compromises suggests that the days of creation were long periods of time -- perhaps millions or even billions of years. Granted, God can do what He wills; He could have created over a long period of time. So what is wrong with this compromise? Find out ... http://erniecarrasco.com/2015/10/25/a-day-is-a-day/

What Do I Say? | Ernie's Musings

I caught him approaching me from my right side. Instantly my internal alarms sounded as the wiry frame came near. I thought, “Here it comes. This guy is going to hit me up for some gas money, and he’ll have some sob story about his dad suddenly having a stroke, and he has to drive his mother up to Oklahoma City to see him.” Read more ... http://erniecarrasco.com/2015/10/20/what-do-i-say/.

And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit  of God moved upon the face of the waters. (Genesis 1:2)

Ever since Charles Darwin published his On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life, (in which, by the way, he never addresses the main thesis of his book) it seems that Christian theologians have been scrambling to defend the Genesis creation account and allow for millions of years of evolution ... They fear being labeled as ignorant and uneducated and likened to geocentric flat-earthers. Rather than defend the clear teaching of Scripture on this matter, they will either completely capitulate to the evolutionists, or they will find some compromise to accommodate evolutionary concepts.

Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.   (Zechariah 3:4b)

I do not know this for a fact, but I would venture to say all human societies, even the most primitive, wear some type of clothing. Why is that? And where did concept originate? Read more ... http://erniecarrasco.com/2015/10/11/clothing/

Jesus Said It | Ernie's Musings

Jesus Said It | Ernie's Musings

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.   (Matthew 24:35)

The general conception of Jesus, if He is thought of at all, is that He was a nice guy, a good teacher, and perhaps a miracle worker. A lot of what He said are words to live by, like, “all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them” (Matthew 7:12), and “Judge not, that ye be not judged” (Matthew 7:1 – taken out of context, a great verse for Christian bashing). There is no doubt that Jesus taught many things that benefit when applied to every-day life. Those kinds of teachings find general acceptance by all, but Jesus also said many things that many in this politically correct culture would find offensive.
