See, I imagine in a group here like this if I said to you Do you believe that Jesus Christ bodily rose from the dead?

00:06

I would hope that you always say Oh, yeah, Jesus Christ bodily rose in a day, but but let me let me make a simple statement You weren't there

00:14

How do you know Jesus rose from the dead? I mean, where do you get that from? Anyway that he rose from the dead.

00:19

Tell me where you're from You don't have a movie rerun of it You have in the Bible. Okay now look

00:26

Richard Dawkins who's a scientist says that a man can't rise from the dead Because he's a scientist shouldn't we take what he says and reinterpret this and say it's not really a bodily resurrection

00:35

So wait a minute. He's an atheist. He's against God. You can't take his word and reinterpret this Why not a lot of churches and Christians do that with what he believes about origins and reinterpret

00:44

Genesis It's the same thing See look if I was to get into church after church if they'd let me

00:57

And even the churches that teach the gospel and I was to do this here's what I think what happened Do you believe

01:03

Jesus walked on water? Yes. How do you know the Bible says you didn't see it happen? No, well, how do you know the

01:08

Bible says okay Do you believe Jesus fed thousands of people because you didn't see it happen? I know that the Bible says do you believe the

01:14

Israelites crossed the Jordan River and the Red Sea is miracles But you didn't see it happen I know that the Bible says do you believe the

01:20

Israelites wandered in the desert for 40 years and against everything we experience and observe Today their clothes didn't wear out and their shoes didn't even wear out

01:28

Yeah, I know it sounds sounds um sounds hard to believe but you know what God said that that's what happened and God can do that So you believe it?

01:37

Yeah Because the Bible says I see you believe a man was swallowed by a fish and lived in a fish for three days and went And preached to a city Yeah, well, that's what the

01:43

Bible says. Yep Then you get to Genesis in most of our churches and Christian colleges and seminaries today and you say now the

01:51

Bible says God created in six days man from dust woman from his side There's a flood that covered the highest hills under the whole of heaven that death came after Adam sinned and what do you hear?

02:01

Oh, no It doesn't mean that why not because of what Richard Dawkins says because of what the secularists are saying because of science because of In other words, you don't take what it says here

02:12

You take what someone says out there and you reinterpret it and people once you unlock that door

02:19

That's the Genesis 3 attack. Did God really say six days? Did he really say yeah a global flood?

02:25

Did he really say dust to Adam saw ribbed to Eve? Did he really say death after sin and it moves on over to did he really say virgin birth?

02:33

Did he really say resurrection? We wonder why we're losing coming generations see for the older generation

02:40

It doesn't affect you know Many of them believed in the gap theory and you know millions of years in some way of the days weren't ordinary days and they ignored

02:47

Genesis, but they trust in Christ for salvation doesn't affect doesn't affect them going to heaven.
