3. Biblical Creationism
Biblical Creationism is the belief that the physical
universe was created by God. The Biblical
Creationism is not science because the Biblical
Creationism is accepted by faith.
The teachings that Creation tells are:
 God Created by Direct Acts
 God Sustains His Creation
 God Reveals His power through His
Creation
 God revealed the Sequence of Creation in
the Bible
 God specially created mankind

4. Biblical Creationism
• Because God Created Mankind, Mankind is
responsible to God
• God´s creation is Degenerating

5. Non Literal Views of Creation
Gap Theory says that God
created a “First Creation” in
Genesis 1:1 that lasted a long
time and in Genesis 1:2 that
Creation was destroyed.
Long Day Theory says that a
day was millions of years
refering to 2 Peter 3:8.
Progresive Creationism say that
God created in billions of years
by batches.
Theistic Evolution say that God
created using evolution.

6. Lamark´s Theory
The Theory of Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics is
Lamark´s theory. This theory say that organisms acquired
characteristics and they are passed to the offsprings and
they make better the characteristic. This theory has a
major problem that is that acquired characteristics are not
passed to the offsprings because they are not in the genes.

7. Darwin Theory
The theory of Darwin is the Theory of Natural Selection that
says that organisms produce new traits to survive and this
is call the survival of the fittest. This theory is similar to
selective breeding . But can natural selection explain the
many organisms alive today?

8. De Vries Theory
The theory of De Vries is evolution by mutation. This theory
say that evolution was posible because the organisms
mutates to have a new trait. The problem with this theory
is that most mutations are harmful or letal or even no
noticeable and it most be a germ mutation to be passed to
offsprings.

9. A Record of Evolution?
Evolutionists use
clasification , fossils, and
others to make a record of
evolution. They make
evolutionary family trees
but there are missing links
when it is separated and
this missing links or
transisional forms are still
missing.
