Newly Discovered  Fossil Sheds Light On One Of Evolution's Biggest Problems:

THE CAMBRIAN EXPLOSION

The Cambrian fish had 60 cell types, equivalent to an encyclopedia of brand-new biological information, appearing suddenly and fully formed, with no ascent from prior ancestors. Nearly 70 percent of animal phyla have their lowest occurrence in the Cambrian strata, new animals appearing suddenly and fully formed, and those same body plans have not changed.

"For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor a bad tree which produces good fruit. For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.”

- Jesus Christ (Luke 6:43-45)

Are There Contradictions In The Bible?

Jesus rose “on the third day” (Acts 10:40); Jesus rose “after three days” (Mark 8:31); Jesus rose

after "three days and three nights" (Matthew 12:40). Which will it be?

550 Million Years of Non-Evolution?

Newly discovered sea creature challenges evolutionary interpretations.

“If it really is a ‘living fossil’—a creature with ancient fossil representatives yet still alive today—that can be found in the Ediacaran rocks, then how will secular biologists explain that evolution had no effect on it over the course of 550 million years? After all, during that same supposed time, evolution was morphing something like mindless sea squirts into scientists.”

The Unfathomable Size Of The Universe

The latest Hubble deep field survey (October 2016) shows an unfathomably large universe... about 10 times more galaxies than we originally thought, putting the new estimated total at around 2 trillion. That means there are more galaxies in our viewable universe than there are stars in our own galaxy—by a large margin. And this is just the parts of the universe we can see. Much of it is obscured behind a cosmic horizon where the light cannot reach us. The unimaginable size of the universe should make us pause and re-evaluate our lives and the power and majesty of our Creator (Who "became flesh and dwelt among us" - John 1:14).

“Behold, Behemoth, which I made as I made you; he eats grass like an ox. Behold, his strength in his loins, and his power in the muscles of his belly. He makes his tail stiff like a

cedar; the sinews of his thighs are knit together. His bones are tubes of bronze, his limbs like bars of iron. He is the first of the works of God; let him who made him bring near his sword! For the mountains yield food for him where all the wild beasts play. Under the lotus plants he lies, in the shelter of the reeds and in the marsh. For his shade the lotus trees cover him; the willows of the brook surround him. Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened; he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mouth. Can one take him by his eyes, or pierce his nose with a snare?"

- Job 40:15-24

Why Is The Universe So Finely Tuned?

The Finely Tuned Universe

"For by Him [Jesus] all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have

been created through Him and for Him."
