God and Evolution Conference at Phoenix Seminary (Jan. 18-19, 2018)
The debate about biological origins continues to be hotly contested within the Christian church. Prominent organizations such as Biologos (USA) and Faraday Institute (UK) insist that Christians must yield to an unassailable scientific consensus in favor of contemporary evolutionary theory and modify traditional biblical ideas about the creation of life accordingly. They promote a view known as “theistic evolution” or “evolutionary creation.” They argue that God used—albeit in an undetectable way—evolutionary mechanisms to produce all forms of life.Dr Grudem has identified some of the main theological problems with theistic evolution and presents them in the following two powerpoint presentations.
