Evolution or Divine Intervention

By Dennis King

Divine Intervention and Darwin’s Theory of Evolution are opposing intellectual points of view. Which do you favor? How to you feel when the “experts” sheds light only on the “facts” that support their point of view? Many scholars that support the work of Charles Darwin are quick to discount God as the Creator of all. One might surmise that Darwin did not believe in God. That is not true.
Seemingly, everybody has been exposed to Darwin’s Theory. Did you know its original 1859 title was “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life”? Or, later, in the 1872 sixth edition, the title was changed to “The Origin of the Species.” Then it became Darwin’s Theory of Evolution of Species. Meaning distinct species transformed into other species.
Darwin's Theory of Evolution is the widely held notion that all life is related and has descended from a single, common ancestor: bananas and birds, fish and flowers—are all related. Darwin's general, all-purpose theory presumes the development of life from non-life and stresses a purely naturalistic or undirected "descent with modification." That is, complex creatures, evolve from more simplistic ancestors naturally over time. In a nutshell, as random genetic mutations occur within an organism's genetic code, the beneficial mutations are preserved because they aid survival—a process known as "natural selection." These beneficial mutations are passed on to the next generation. Over time, beneficial mutations accumulate and the result is an entirely different organism (not just a variation of the original, but a totally different creature).
Two crucial pieces of the puzzle of Darwin’s faith were the deaths of his father in 1848 and his 10-year-old daughter Annie three days after Easter in 1851. His father’s death was very stressful. Reflecting later, Darwin wrote, “I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so the plain language of the [New Testament] text seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, Brother, and most all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished. And this is a damnable doctrine.” His wife was so distressed by this passage in his autobiography that she expunged it from the first published edition of that work.

Introduction

There are many conflicting ideas on Divine Intervention and Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. Can you believe in evolution and still be a saved Christian? What are the Christian requirements to gain eternal Salvation?

Near the end of His first earthly ministry, Jesus, Son of the Most High, willingly, though somewhat reluctantly, died on the cross for the remission of all our sins so we could have a chance of salvation. Three days later, He physically rose from death, left the burial tomb, and proved to the Apostles—He was alive again before ascending to heaven. While there is no multiple choice bible test you have to pass to get to heaven. you can not get there on your own merit or good deeds. Any chargeable sin will deny entrance into Paradise.
