Must be Creation!

Amazing!  As the political cartoon by Gary Varvel, showing the inside of an empty cave-tomb with a round rock at the entrance, a blanket on an empty rock bed, with a head-covering folded and words on the wall “GOD’S NOT DEAD,” so scientists are now “discovering” the Bible is correct – and, yes, all will know it always has been correct, totally correct.  Eric Metaxas, the author of the recently published book,“Miracles: What They Are, Why They Happen, and How They Can Change Your Life,” gave an interview to the Wall Street Journal – it is outstanding for those who know the true creation history.  “Every knee shall bow” (Isaiah 45:23, Philippians 2:10) to the God of the Bible, Christ Jesus, knowing that He has always spoken the truth.  Click on the following to read Eric Metaxas in the Wall Street Journal:  http://www.wsj.com/articles/eric-metaxas-science-increasingly-makes-the-case-for-god-1419544568

Last Month (January) – AzOSA’s Kartchner Tours – Caving Fun!

On Saturday, January 17th and Saturday 24th, AzOSA’s ever-popular “Big Room” tours at Kartchner Caverns were sold out and a hit!  Fourteen “cavers” and Jim Clarke (AzOSA’s resident geologist) rode the tram a short distance up the hillside and entered the beautiful underground world of the Big Room.  After spending about an hour enjoying the caverns’ incredible formations, Jim and the group gathered at the group picnic ramada for a 20 minute talk about the area’s geology and cave formation.

On January 17th, a couple who was not with our group heard Jim start to speak and joined us for his entire presentation.  The couple is shown on the left side of the photo, back row.  They said when Jim mentioned the Bible and how it fit into the creation, they just had to stay and listen!

We received several suggestions for field trips and are currently looking into a trip to Antelope Canyon and a half-day raft adventure on the Colorado River from Glen Canyon Dam.  If you have any suggestions for other field trips, please email Jim at geology@azosa.org

GRAND CANYON Trip – June 6, 2015

Grand Canyon Creation Bus Tour – Sat. June 6, 2015
Get on the Grand Canyon Bus with Us & Our Tour Guide Russ – Canyon Creation Expert & Founder of Creation, Evolution & Science Ministries –
Even if you have previously been to the Grand Canyon, on this Bible-based Tour you will be shown things you perhaps never saw before – Russ will show you the original Creation rock created by God on Day 3 of Creation which God called “good!” (you will be able to touch it with your hand); as well as the Judgment layers laid down by the global Flood of Noah’s day; along with proof that more than a mile-high of sediment used to exist above the Rim of the Canyon that is now gone as a result of the global Flood Of Noah’s day, and much more. Save your Tweens, Teens, Twenty-something’s & yourself from the “billions-of-years” lies of secular “science” falsely so-called, and see true scientific proof that the Bible is TRUE Word-for-Word & Cover-to-Cover!

On Sat. June 6, we depart from the New Life Worship Center parking lot, 11001 N. 99th Ave., Peoria, AZ 85345, at 7:30am and return at9:00pm. (We will also pickup & dropoff at the Flagstaff Sizzler/Taco Bell for those up North who wish to go.)
The trip includes lunch, snacks, and bottled water. We will be traveling on a luxury coach bus complete with DVD screens, large viewing windows, and an on-board restroom. Russ Miller’s Creation vs. Evolution DVDs will be shown during the ride to and from the Grand Canyon. At Grand Canyon’s Desert View, the Watchtower area, we will stop for lunch and an on-the-rim talk by Russ. From Desert View, it is on to Mather Point where you can either ride the bus to Bright Angel Lodge or walk 2.8 miles along the paved rim trail to the Lodge.  During the walk, Russ will point out Canyon features and answer questions. We will end up at Bright Angel Lodge where there will be free time to explore the lodge.

So many people have not heard the truth, and we need to share it with them. So please be bold and invite folks so that they can benefit from the great speakers we line up. Other simple ways to help?

The Wasteland of Unbelief reviewed by Richard Stevens

The book’s title gives the impression the book is a longish rant, but The Vast Wastelands of Unbelief actually offers a collection of concisely stated insights into a number of selected issues arising from the ongoing “new atheist” critiques of Christianity and of belief in God generally. Vast Wastelands does not merely insult or dismiss the atheists’ points but lively challenges them on their merits.

The book provides the atheists’ positions quoted and cited to sources, so the counter arguments are focused and cogent. What you might have only heard about atheist positions is now set forth in text so you can speak or write about it with confidence.
