- 00:02
- I am evolution.
- 00:20
- I am random chance accidents that bring us purposeless nothing, which somehow leads to everything.
- 00:28
- I am creation. I show order and completion. I had to break a few scientific laws to get here.
- 00:36
- The law of conservation of mass energy, which says no matter of energy can never be created nor destroyed.
- 00:43
- The law of causality, which says that every effect must have an equal or greater cause.
- 00:50
- Yet I ask you to believe that everything came from nothing. Not to mention the law of biogenesis, which says that life always comes from life, yet I teach that life came from non -living matter.
- 01:03
- I never go against these scientific laws because I am created by the one who made the energy. The great cause that made all the effects, the living
- 01:11
- God who created life, matter, the laws of nature, and all things. I am marked by an invisible past.
- 01:19
- Fossils show none of my expected in -between forms. I am witnessed in the book that tells how
- 01:24
- I came about, the Bible. I am talked about in almost every science textbook. Their information often changes and disagrees, but it's all the truth.
- 01:35
- At least for today. My book has stood the test of time. Like the God that revealed it, my truth never changes.
- 01:43
- I am clever storytelling. If what you see doesn't fit with what I'm saying, we'll make it fit.
- 01:50
- I only need a small amount of evidence to be considered true because everyone wants to believe me.
- 01:56
- I am the search for truth, the narrow path. Even when you're given amazing evidence I was made by the creator of all, most will not acknowledge me.
- 02:04
- You'll be popular if you believe in me, even if I'm wrong, which of course I'll cleverly cover.
- 02:11
- You will be ridiculed if you believe in Jesus the creator, but in him there is hope and purpose.
- 02:17
- I am a fingerprint of the eternal God and you are a reflection of his image. I am freedom. I free you from having to be responsible to anyone but yourself.
- 02:27
- Freedom to die? I point to the one who gives freedom to live. Freedom to be loved by the one who knows you inside and out, forever.
- 02:37
- I reflect a society that declares we don't need God, we are our own gods, if you must use that word.
- 02:44
- I reflect the designer of everything from this vast universe to the smallest particle. His ways are far beyond our ways.
- 02:51
- He doesn't need us, but yet he calls. Will you hear? I am heard from the loudest voices, rock stars, movie stars, even many of your teachers.
- 03:01
- Even powerful religious leaders. I am the still small voice calling you to follow the creator and submit to him as a savior.
- 03:08
- I call a fetus a glob of tissue, a choice. I call it a masterpiece of the creator from the very first cell, with a lifetime of choices to make.
- 03:17
- I am millions of years of death. Death? Yes, all the death, through natural selection, brought about life.
- 03:25
- Millions of years of death to get here. Death is my champion, and time and chance are his allies.
- 03:31
- Yes, I, the creation, groan in pain because of sin and death. But death was the payment for the wrongs we commit, not a way to advance the world.
- 03:40
- Yet within me is also evidence of new life. The way I am sustained, the miracle of a tree growing from a tiny seed, all point to my creator,
- 03:50
- Jesus Christ, the one who stretched out the universe and allowed his human hands to be stretched out and nailed to a cross, to pay off that death sentence for me and for you.
- 04:01
- It's free for anyone willing to admit their wrongs and believe that he died and rose again. Amazing life.
- 04:09
- Eternal life. Believe in me and you can have your own way today and die tomorrow, and I will be served.
- 04:15
- For when you die, there will be no reason for your random existence. Believe in God and you will find ultimate purpose.
- 04:23
- The plan he had for you since the very foundation of the earth. Because he loves you. Stop! Choose me.
- 04:29
- Just accept it. Nod your head. Agree. Then move on. Oh man, I have claimed the lives of so many.
- 04:36
- Today you believe in me a little, tomorrow you believe in your myth a little less.
- 04:42
- No. Think. Don't just believe because everybody else does. Because if you look, really look, at me and the words he revealed, you'll see him.
- 04:51
- Find him and you will find life. Eternal life. It's your choice.
- 04:57
- I call heaven and earth to record this day against you that I have set before you. Life and death, blessing and cursing, therefore choose life that both you and your descendants may live.
