Then the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”
(Genesis 2:15-17) NKJV
Evolution is the passage of heritable traits from generation to generation, it requires billions of years of death and dying before humans could sin. The Bible says that there was no death before sin.
Ponder this: If death isn’t punishment for sin, but it’s a natural process of life, what do we need to be saved from? Incorporating the evolutionary origin of humanity into Christianity negates any need for a savior. Is the origin of humanity by Evolution or Jesus Christ?
The Evolutionary origin of humanity is impossible, but the process of Evolution, as change in allele frequency in a population over time, began at the fall of man in Genesis 3. Jesus can save you, Evolution can’t.
Salvation
- Call upon the name of Jesus Christ,
- believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
- confess your sin.
