How To Interpret Fossils
Description: Mr. Mitchell’s presentation will highlight information found in his new book, Fossils: Description & Interpretation – Within a Biblical Worldview. A point of focus will be the foundational ideas upon which the book is based:
- Most fossils are evidences of a single, year-long, cataclysmic event that took place on the earth some 4,500 years ago (the Genesis Flood).
- These fossils have great value today because they are a reminder of, and proof of, God’s judgment, power and grace.
- These fossils are not evidences of many events over hundreds of millions of years that have value today because of their great age and their proof of the macroevolution of life.
In order to emphasize the truth of the book’s foundational ideas, the “18 Facts of Paleontology” will be enlisted to make clear the superiority of the Biblical Worldview over the Secular Worldview. Fossils only make sense to the critical thinker if the vast majority of them are understood to be the result of the global Flood at the time of Noah.
A variety of apologetics and biblical creationist educational materials will be available for sale at the meeting, including the book Fossils: Description & Interpretation. There will also be a number of actual fossils available at the meeting for sale. The book and fossils can be a great help in explaining the true history of the earth to young people.
