Fourteen theological scholars address key topics related to the age of the earth, which is the crucial issue of debate in the church today regarding origins. Bringing to bear rigorous biblical, theological, and historical arguments in favor of a six-day creation, the global Flood, and a young earth, they also provide much-needed critiques of a number of contemporary old-earth interpretations of the book of Genesis. This fresh defense of the literal history of Genesis 1-11 nicely complements other studies which focus more on the scientific evidence of young-earth creationism. As such, this book can serve as a versatile supplement to other works, but is also designed to be used as a standalone text for seminary and Bible college professors and students, pastors, missionaries, and others who want in-depth apologetic resources. Coming to Grips with Genesis: Biblical Authority and the Age of the Earthincludes: Forewords by Dr. John MacArthur, President of the Master's Seminary and Senior Pastor of Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, CA; and the late Dr. Henry Morris, Founder and President Emeritus, Institute for Creation Research Detailed analysis of the verbs of Genesis 1 A defense of the Genesis 5 & 11 genealogies as strict chronologies Reasons for rejecting millions of years of death and natural evil before Adam's sin Careful reflection on Jesus' teachings regarding a young earth… (altro)

An excellent resource to study the critical issue of Biblical Authority and the Age of the Earth (the subtitle of the book). A group of 12 scholars, all except one with earned Ph. D.'s, provide a comprehensive survey of the critical issues that every informed Christian leader must make a decision on in regards to the place of and the appropriate ways to interpret Genesis. This is not a light book, one that can be assimilated quickly and the material is of primary importance in a day of skepticism about the role of the Bible and its place of authority in Bible-believing churches. The two editors have provided a huge service to the evangelical church in organizing this material for all students of the Bible. Some, even many, of those who hold to other ideas about creation, such as progressive creationists, evolutionary creationists, theistic evolutionists and old-earth creationists, have never given serious study to this subject from the perspective of young earth creationists. They do themselves a favour by carefully studying this book. It is so easy to only deal with "strawman arguments" to dismiss positions that oppose your own. By reading this book, you will at least give some credibility to your own arguments for your own position. And, if you are brave enough, you might even present your own counter-arguments once you have understood what responsible young earth creationists actually teach. If unity is to be had in the evangelical church, we must come to some understanding of one another, even if lock step agreement is not achieved. It is the truth that sets one free...and we recognize that the ultimate truth is, of course, the Son of God. This book, I believe upholds the Truth, by correcting false notions to arrive at better understanding of certain truths, found in and taught by the Scriptures. ( )
While a future companion volume could discuss some these scientific and philosophical issues from a special creationist perspective, Mortenson and Ury present a volume bursting with robust, respectful, and cogent scholarly expositions of biblical creation which are not often accessible today. The academic community stands in debt to the authors for this distinctive contribution.
