Burden & Blessing

In Part 2 of our review of Matt Walsh’s videos against the Biblical view of a Young Earth Creation, Pastors Mark Tiefel and Nathanael Mayhew discuss a few additional issues. Why would Matt Walsh single out Ken Ham and not the other scientists on the Answers in Genesis team? First, Ken is probably the most familiar, and while he doesn’t have a scientific PhD, he has many people working with him who do. Leaders in the fields of biology, astronomy, geology and more work side by side with Ken Ham and also accept the historical record of Genesis 1. Matt Walsh is also inconsistent when he says that he is not insisting on his own view, but then says that Ken Ham, and all other young earth creationists, are wrong. They also dig into Matt Walsh’s view that Genesis is “metaphorical and theological,” and the theological problems you have if you take it in a metaphorical way. There is only one interpretation of any verse, and that is God’s intended interpretation. Join us for a journey through Biblical interpretation and defending the truth of God’s inspired Word!

Pastors Mark Tiefel and Nathanael Mayhew discuss and respond to popular Catholic blogger Matt Walsh and his unscriptural attack on Young Earth Creation, and the account of creation in Genesis 1. Since Matt Walsh is popular in conservative Christian circles, and many of our listeners may have seen his video, we felt it was important to respond and point out the truth, as well as the blatant errors of Matt Walsh on this topic. They discuss…

• How we read and understand the Bible and whether Genesis is literal (historical) or metaphorical.
• The actual Hebrew word for “day” and how God intends it to be understood in Genesis 1.
• The importance of science, and what it can and cannot tell us.
• And the reason why this is so important and how Walsh’s views are dangerous to true Christianity.

We hope you find this helpful and instructive.
