On February 12,
2006, 412 “churches” in 49 states will “Celebrate
Evolution Sunday.” This event is designed to
convince Christians that evolution and the Christian
faith are completely compatible. I delivered
this sermon to show how evolution and Christianity
are not compatible and that an honest reading
of the Bible actually rebuts the claims of the
evolutionist.
The issue of evolution is extremely important. It relates to the foundation of
what we teach at Institute on the Constitution. Evolution is the starting point
for the pagan view of law and government. Creation is the foundation of our Founder’s
view of law and government, a Biblical world view.
As our Founders clearly stated in the Declaration of Independence, “all men … are
endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are
Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Our rights come from our Creator
not from civil government. If we were not created, if we all evolved out of that
slim in the swamp, then we have no Creator, and therefore no unalienable rights.
That is why the pagan view of government which rejects a Creator ultimately results
in tyranny. If there is no Creator, then the one with the most guns controls
everyone else. The subjects only have the liberties the tyrant chooses to temporarily
allow them to have.
Our task is to teach the Biblical view of law and government that was expounded
by our Founders in order to Restore our Republic. To that end I offer this sermon
to help equip true patriots in refuting the Lie of Evolution.

but slightly lower quality version is available for those using a dial up connection
to access the internet. This file is only 4-5 MB in size. If you have Microsoft's
Media player you should now be able to play them as a data stream without having
to first download them to your hard drive. Macintosh users can open these streams
in iTunes or download the audio file first and add it to your iTunes library
to listen to again and again. Now PC users can also download a free iTunes player
