CELEBRATE PRIDE MONTH

CELEBRATE PRIDE MONTH
This message gives the Biblical examples of the behavior of hard-core sodomites (homosexuals). That would include all the various transgenders and other “fairy tale things” (to quote from Shrek).

It was removed from the Bath Bible Institute YouTube page due to pressure from the loving, caring, tolerant lavender lobby, but it remains on Bro. Don Nesbitt’s YouTube page.

THIS stuff is THE issue of our day and if we don’t confront it head-on, we are shirking our duty.

“If I profess with the loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except precisely that little point which the world and the devil are at the moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ.” – attributed to Martin Luther

HUMAN FOSSILS

This has been an excellent conversation to which I’ve (Ian Juby) sadly been distracted from. It’s an excellent question “Where are all the human fossils?” but the truth is, the evolutionists themselves have acknowledged that there’s been human fossils found to the tune of tens of thousands of them. Let’s take a look at the history:

When Bill Cooper published about the “Lady of Guadeloupe” in 1983, and then in his awesome book “After the Flood” he lit a firestorm – especially with the British Museum of Natural history because he had spent years there researching for his book. He detailed numerous artifacts in the museum that seemingly no one knew of – including the famous lady of Guadeloupe: https://coolinterestingstuff.com/the-mystery-of-the-guadeloupe-woman

I have no idea who’s webpage that is, but I’m pretty sure that’s actually my photo of my cast of the Guadeloupe skeleton.

We now of course know there was multiple fossil skeletons of completely modern humans found at that site, dated somewhere between 12 and 25 million evolutionary years old. Then curator of the British Museum, Chris Stringer, hit the roof after he found out Cooper had published on the skeletons in HIS museum’s closet – the skeleton shown was actually on display for over 50 years in the British Museum and was quietly removed and put in the basement after evolutionism took hold. Stringer took issue with the suggestion that he or the museum was hiding evidence that went against evolutionary theory and its hallowed timescale. They hauled the skeleton out and put it on public display, even calling a press conference to show the world they weren’t hiding it. And they then denied that the rocks in which the fossil was found were actually as old as the geology suggested.

As a result, geologist John Mackay went to the Island of Guadeloupe in 1985 to settle once and for all the assigned evolutionary age of the fossil site. Mysteriously, though the entire island had been surveyed geologically, the Clerc site (from whence the fossils allegedly came) had *not* been included in any geological surveys. Why not?

So Mackay conducted a geological survey (which was published in Ex Nihilo tech journal in 1986 https://creation.com/images/pdfs/tj/j02_1/j02_1_141-153.pdf) settled several questions and brought up a few more questions. What he did settle though was that the matrix in which the Guadeloupe skeletons were found match the Miocene deposits of the island. He brought all his paperwork and research to the British Museum and confronted Chris Stringer with the information. Upon seeing this, Stringer calmed down and was much more humble and open to the claims of Cooper and other creationists. Mackay pinned him down and flat out asked him “How many human fossils do you know of?” Stringer thought about it for a while, and it was Mackay’s turn to be shocked: Stringer responded with “Oh, about 30,000 or so?”

30,000??? So you’re probably thinking the same things Mackay did, and what I did when he recounted this story to me. That’s an awful lot of human fossils that we’ve never heard anything about – and that’s what was acknowledged by a leading evolutionary scholar – one who is clearly “in the know” regarding the fossil evidence of humans. Thing is – they’ve even acknowledged this right under our noses and I don’t know about you – but I completely overlooked it for decades.

John Sanford and Chris Rupe brought up a significant point in their book “Contested Bones” – they noted that ALL of the major players in the evolutionary paleontology camp digging in Africa for our ancient ancestors had found fossils of humans: homo. Louis and Mary Leakey, Richard Leakey, Tim White, Don Johanson – every one of them, even written right in the abstracts of their papers, acknowledged finding fossils of homo at every site they excavated. Please notice that this is what *they* are acknowledging. This does not even take into account the major points of contention we would have with their interpretations of the fossils they claim were not homo.

For example, the AL-129 knee was found 2-1/2 kilometers away from the Lucy skeleton, and some 60 to 70 meters deeper stratigraphically. Yet whenever Johanson talked about the AL-129 knee, he always talked about it interchangeably with the knee that was found at the Lucy site. This has led to much confusion and criticisms on both sides of the creation / evolution debate, but I lay the blame at the feet of Johanson – even if it was just honest miscommunication. In the PBS NOVA special on the Lucy find, Owen Lovejoy spoke quite frankly of the AL-129 fossil knee:

“When Don brought the Hadar knee back from Ethiopia and laid it out on my living room floor, I knew instantly, that was a HUMAN KNEE” (emphasis mine, and I’m going by memory here so that may not be an exact quote).

With Johanson narrating, Lovejoy then demonstrates on camera how the knee locks upright just like a human knee, and exactly UNlike an ape’s knee. Thing of it is – he’s right. It IS a human knee! Yet they do not report the AL-129 knee as belonging to homo. Why not? Because they honestly believe that humans were not around in rocks that old, therefore they attribute this clearly human knee to Lucy, which is a combination of ape and pygmy human fossils.

So the reason I bring that up is because it’s a stunning example of the evolutionists finding what they frankly admit is a completely human fossil, but in the technical literature they classify it as an ape-like creature. A. afarensis in this case – not even CLOSE to human. The fossil knee that was found with Lucy is probably also a human knee. So here we have, with just one of the famous hominid fossils, multiple human fossils mixed in. Now let’s start counting up the other fossils found all over the African sites that *they* call homo. Then let’s start counting up all of the Neanderthal fossils
which many evolutionists acknowledge are human. You can start to see a little bit why Stringer would give such an outrageous number off the top of his head.

Please note, I have not brought up any allegedly “controversial” fossils like fossil human footprints of the Paluxy. Just in that one mile strip of the Paluxy on which the McFall site is located, about a hundred fossil human footprints have been found. This does not take into account ooparts like the Calaveras skull (for which I think Lain and Gentet did a fantastic job contesting for it in CRSQ 33). The Calaveras site is actually quite interesting because *hundreds* of human tools were found in the same gravel bed in the gold mine from which that skull came. Other human fossil bones and fragments were also retrieved from that bed. So I’m not taking any of those fossils into account, and that’s hundreds upon hundreds of examples in a few sentences. Shall I go on about the Nampa figurine? Other clearly man-made artifacts found in sediments allegedly too old?

So as far as human fossils go, there’s been tens of thousands of them found and even acknowledged by the evolutionists themselves. What that number would be if you included contested finds, I do not know – except it would be a bigger number than “Oh, about 30,000” 😀

GEM Winter Update

GEM Winter Update

Decemberrrrrrr had an unusually cold spell. We had a couple of weeks of sub-zero temperatures and several days of that were in the ten-below range with wind chills of -30. January has been much more mild and now we are entering February, looking forward to spring.

OPPORTUNITIES!

        I’m finally getting some more opportunities to minister in a variety of ways:

RADIO

        This morning was my first of three or four appearances on “Unconfused”, a radio talk show hosted by Pastor Stephen Miller in Lubbock, Texas on KRFE (AM580). I will do that Monday mornings when I’m available until I start working Mondays (probably March).

ON THE ROAD

        I will be at Liberty Baptist Church in Rochester, IN (Pastor Bill McSpadden) April 13, 14, 15 (F-S-S) for five sessions (https://www.rochesterlibertybaptistchurch.com). Those of you from nearby churches are invited to attend the Friday and Saturday sessions.

We’re working on scheduling something at Bible Baptist Church in Asheville, NC (Pastor Andrew Sluder). It will probably have to be in the fall when I start getting three-day weekends again. It’s a 14 hour drive, so the extra day is imperative. I can take some days off work for meetings (I am for the Indiana meetings), but I don’t want to burn then faster than necessary.

AT HOME

        Pastor Brenenstuhl, my pastor here at Wyldewood Baptist Church in Oshkosh, WI asked me to do a six-week, for-credit, summer session for our Wyldewood Baptist Bible Institute, complete with Powerpoint. I already have two of the six ready to go. I also teach our King’s Kids Wednesday evening youth ministry about once a month. They get to see fossils and artifacts, I bring but they’ve never been able to see my Powerpoint lessons.

Sometime within the next two months I’ll be at Bible Baptist Church, Winneconne WI, Pastor Robert Hatch.

Last month I did an Awana session (two actually) at nearby Plymouth Congregational. Director Jim Engler says I am the most requested special speaker during the year.

NOW is the time to schedule a weekend meeting for your church. Call 920-376-0828 or respond to this email. Places more than about 8 hours away may have to wait until fall so we can take advantage of the extra day. For those of you interested in having me for a meeting, I have created a page on my website that tells what I have, what I might need, and some pointers and basic information. Check it out at: http://genesisevidence.org/my-needs/

GEM Holiday Update

GEM Holiday Update

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas! (as politically incorrect as that is to say). I was able to visit my 82 year old mother, who lives with my brother and his family (wife & eight kids) in Michigan over the Thanksgiving weekend.

I recently received something to be truly thankful for. In early November I was given a promotion and a $2.50/hr raise at work! That will make a huge difference. I will be able to start getting ahead instead of struggling to keep my nose above sea level.

Also, I had my day off work changed from Fridays to Mondays (from now till spring). This will really help for weekend meetings. I now don’t have to be back to get up at 4:30 am on Monday morning, so I can stay late on Sundays and not have to return home until Monday. Plus, I can now travel further for meetings with Saturday and Monday as travel days. My range is now anywhere within about 12 hours of Oshkosh, WI. Or, for shorter trips, I will also have Saturday evenings available for sessions.

So NOW is the time to schedule a weekend meeting for your church. Call 920-376-0828 or respond to this email. For those of you interested in having me for a meeting, I have created a page on my website that tells what I have, what I might need, and some pointers and basic information. Check it out at: http://genesisevidence.org/my-needs/

I have a few local meetings upcoming in the next month or so. One in Oshkosh, another in Winneconne. I’m ready to get back on the road. After probably the most difficult year of my life, it would sure be an encouragement to me to pick up some meetings.

I just acquired a couple of new items to add to my collection of fossils, castings, and artifacts. One is the oldest known example of Hebrew writing – and it has a scriptural message. Another I may be getting soon is the remains of an apparent mechanical item (probably a plumbing implement) that was found in-situ in alleged dinosaur-aged strata. Either dinosaurs had plumbing, or evolutionists are wrong about them living millions of years ago. Some of the other items will be exciting for children. They all work to prove the word of God, Genesis in particular, is absolutely true and reliable.

I also have three new messages in the works. One, on the flood and aftermath, will be debuted at my meeting on Oshkosh. Another, on the apostle Paul’s relevance to creation issues, is almost complete. I have also had a few of my messages put on my website. Search http://GenesisEvidence.org for them.

In Christ the Creator,

October GEM Update

October GEM Update
Greetings in Christ (the Creator)!
 .
My email program is giving me some SSL certificate errors which is requiring me
to send mail from their website instead of the program (I can receive email
normally). The website doesn’t allow me to format email like the program does,
so this might be more plain in appearance than usual.
 .
MASS SHOOTING: The hot news currently is the mass shooting in Las Vegas. Many
details are unknown and probably will remain so. The devaluing of life is a
direct result of America abandoning the foundation set in Genesis. Genesis shows
Adam being created in the image of God and having value for that reason. Genesis
declares life is so important that forfeiting one’s own life is the just penalty
for taking the life of another.
 .
BEARING ARMS: The right to bear arms comes into play here. Cain killed Abel in
Genesis. He probably used a rock (could have been a stick, his bare hands, or
even a knife). God did not institute any weapons controls after that. The weapon
was not the problem. The heart of the killer was the problem. In fact, in the
New Testament, Jesus told His disciples to get arms even though it was against
Roman law for a Jew to be armed (according to Josephus’ annals). That tells us
our rights come from God (as the Declaration states), not from government. The
constitution protects our rights, but it doesn’t grant them.
 .
Our only chance to reach our society and transform our decaying culture is to
give them a foundation in Genesis (as well as the saving gospel of the Lord
Jesus Christ). That’s what my ministry endeavors to do – to put the foundation
under the gospel so it can go from transforming individual sinners to the entire
culture. America was founded not only on Christian principles, but on a reliance
upon God our “Creator” as the originator of our unalienable rights.
 .
UPCOMING MEETINGS: I’ve been contacted by three churches who want to schedule me
for this fall. Specific dates haven’t yet been set. Fall is upon us, so now is a
good time to contact and schedule me for a presentation. I have Fridays off work
from now till spring, so NOW is the time to schedule a weekend meeting for your
church. Call 920-376-0828 or respond to this email. For those of you interested
in having me for a meeting, I have created a page on my website that tells what
I have, what I might need, and some pointers and basic information. Check it out
 .
ANDRES UPDATE: Our Couriers for Christ missionaries said the area of Switzerland
where Andres lives was quite far from where they were. So instead of calling
him, they contacted a missionary friend of Nico Verhoef who is closer and he is
going to pay Andres a personal visit! Even better than a phone call! Keep that
in your prayer. The visit may have already happened by now.
 .
I hope to hear from you while I have 3-day weekends free. Until next month,
 .

GEM September Update

GEM September Update
Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him ; male and female created he them.
Mark 10:6-7 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female . For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother , and cleave to his wife ; 

        The big current issue is the transgender movement. Our government, public schools, and the media no longer know the difference between men and women or boys and girls. They wail at the thought of circumcision, then they have no problem with a young child undergoing “sexual reassignment surgery”.Young children do not, and should not, have much concept of normal sexuality, yet society is forcing upon them dangerous, perverted sexual concepts. This is immoral, perverted, and criminal child abuse.

This is a result of America , including churches, getting away from Genesis. In Genesis God tells us about creating male and female. In Genesis God tells us about marriage. When Jesus Christ speaks on those topics, He quotes Genesis .

We will not solve this moral perversion until our CHURCHES go back to emphasizing Genesis. Everything in scripture has its origin in Genesis. Our very salvation is not only pictured in Genesis, but the NEED for salvation is found only in Genesis. Without the fall in Genesis, there is no reason to be saved in the first place.

NEW MESSAGES! 

        I have three new messages. One of them is complete. Another will be complete as soon as I finish another read through the Pauline epistles.Two dilemmas I had when beginning this ministry were:

1. Showing all the fascinating fossil, castings, and artifacts defending the biblical account was light on scripture, and the scriptural messages were lax on showing the evidence. That’s not as much of a problem for longer meetings, where both kind of messages can be presented, or for multiple presentations to the same church, but it’s a problem for shorter events. I prayed for the Lord to give me some messages that had a good combination of both. He did this with messages like, “

Jesus Saith, (I am the Truth )”, “And God Said, (and it was so)”, and “Fear Not, Only Believe“.2. Some of the topics can be technical and dry to the average person. I prayed to be able to make interesting messages and make them understandable to even children, yet scientifically accurate and robust. The Lord has answered that. At the most high-level creation conference I’ve been a part of, the “Society of  Creation” seminar at Concordia University, I presented with nine other speakers representing nine doctoral degrees. One of the comments the organizer of the event received from the audience was that I was the only one everyone could understand. These new messages have a good balance of technicality, understandability, and intrigue.

The new messages are:

The FLOOD and the ICE AGE: An exciting defense of the biblical account as the ONLY reasonable explanation for what we observe today and for the ice age. 

A-PAUL-ogetics : Showing the importance of apologetics (making a reasoned defense) of the Bible and the gospel. The Apostle Paul used apologetics extensively. This will also look at Paul’s references to Genesis. 

The PLANETS (and outer space): Still have a ways to go on this one, but it will be important since things in space are what evolutionists appeal to for defending their belief in billions of years.

From LAST Update:

“Some friends of mine from Chicago (Kat and Connie) came to visit last month and brought their nephew, Andres, who was just home from Switzerland. Andres is a very bright college kid. He speaks four languages fluently. As to be expected from a secular education, he is agnostic. We spent a couple of hours going through many of my fossils and artifacts and he had his world view blown away! The ladies told me when they got back he was still in awe of the things he saw. Pray for him to get saved.“

Last week, Andres went back home to Switzerland. This week, our Couriers For Christ missionaries took a trip to Europe to work with noted missionary Nico Verhoef and one of their stops was in … Switzerland!

Through modern technology I was able to communicate with Kat in Chicago and relay information immediately to Larry Ingalls in Europe so they can make a call to Andres. When Andres was in Oshkosh, he was witnessed to by our Wings As Eagles missionary pilot, Terry Rushing at our aviation ministry hangar. Then I showed him my creation stuff and explained how it defended the Bible. Now, he will be witnessed to (unexpectedly) by yet another person from Wyldewood Baptist Church over in Switzerland. God is chasing him all over the world.

2017 GEM UPDATE

2017 GEM UPDATE

Rom 11:29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

        Last time we met, I was celebrating the most successful span of my ministry, seeing many visitors, having great meetings, seeing many get saved. My step-daughter was planning on taking a mission trip to Puerto Rico (which recently concluded with incredible success). Then the devil stepped in. I went through a sudden, unexpected, devastating divorce after a joyous ten year marriage. That already automatically disqualifies me to many of the brethren, but I am not trying to be a bishop (1 Tim 3), only to serve the Lord with the things He has equipped me.

That obviously derailed some of my plans. After time, counsel, and prayer, Pastor Brenenstuhl has been encouraging me to get back on the road. Anyone wanting more details about my situation is welcome to contact him (or Pastor Robert Hatch who is also familiar with my situation). Both will testify that I am scripturally “blameless” (according to 1 Tim 3) in the ordeal. I am limited to what details I include on my website because I do not wish to besmirch my ex-wife publicly.

I have had a couple of local meetings recently, including one in town at Plymouth Congregational where the kids have been bugging their Pastor to have me back in since I was there in 2015. We had scheduled a meeting in the winter that was preempted by a bad ice storm. I have two more planned for the summer/fall awaiting definitive dates.

I now have to work a full-time job, so I can only do weekend (or holiday) meetings (evenings for some closer places) and can’t travel as far – but I get Fridays off for more than half the year (beginning NOW, through next spring). Getting a job like that where I can still do some travelling and ministry was really an answer to prayer.

FROM LAST UPDATE:

I have a few future meetings planned for later in the year, including a return to Bible Baptist Church of Winneconne, WI (Pastor Robert Hatch) in August and a meeting for the Northwoods Creation Association in Ashland, WI this fall. Tacked onto the NCA meeting will be a weekend session at Harbor Lights Baptist Church (Pastor Randy Hoffman) up in Ashland. Then comes a return to Truth Baptist Church in Portage, WI (Pastor Reggie Williams) for a weekend in October.

        Those meetings all went well and were happening during the brief time the above event was happening.

GOOD NEWS:

After trying and failing at several kinds of diets, a couple of friends told me about “intermittent fasting” a concept where the only rule is to do all your eating in an eight-hour window and fast the rest of the day (only drinks with zero calories). It is the most painless way I’ve ever heard to lose weight. One of my friends lost 50 pounds, the other lost 100 pounds in one year. Since starting at the end of last June, I’ve dropped from 275 pounds to under 185 pounds, a loss of over 90 pounds! None of my clothes fit anymore :-)

Some friends of mine from Chicago (Kat and Connie) came to visit last month and brought their nephew, Andres, who was just home from Switzerland. Andres is a very bright college kid. He speaks four languages fluently. As to be expected from a secular education, he is agnostic. We spent a couple of hours going through many of my fossils and artifacts and he had his world view blown away! The ladies told me when they got back he was still in awe of the things he saw. Pray for him to get saved.

If you want to help me get my ministry revved up again, NOW is the time to schedule a meeting for your church. Call 920-376-0828 or respond to this email.

JULY UPDATE

JULY UPDATE

GEM Grace Display

INDEPENDENCE DAY!

        It was truly independence day for 15 people in Milwaukee this week who professed Jesus Christ as Saviour!

We had a tremendous VBS week at All Bible Baptist Church in Milwaukee, WI (Pastor Pete Methum). It was seven busy days. We had the morning VBS at Tri-County Baptist (Pastor Clayton Jones) and evening sessions at All Bible, for a total of 15 sessions over the week.

We averaged 40 kids a day (plus 15-20 adults). We had 18 visitors during the week. It’s hard to tell sometimes with kids, but during the week over 20 kids, and at least two adults, made indications that they had trusted Christ as Saviour. Trying to whittle out the ones who didn’t seem to really grasp the message, I’m pretty confident at least 15 were legitimate (if more were, that’s better yet!).

I spoke on things like dinosaurs and giants in the morning sessions. Things kids usually like. However the message that really got their attention (this being a group mostly of inner city, “minority” kids) was my lesson on “Evolution and Racism”, exposing the racist foundation of the theory of evolution and the racism of Darwin, Marx, Hitler, and others influenced by the theory. Even better was that was the day the mother of several of the kids came. She told Pastor Methum it was the best message she’d ever heard. She raised her hand for receiving Christ as Saviour!

GRACE BEYOND WORDS

        Right after that I spent a few days as an exhibitor at the “Grace Beyond Words” conference at Quentin Road Bible Baptist Church in Lake Zurich, WI (Pastor Jim Scudder), compliments of Bro. Phil Stringer. My old creationist compatriot, Dr. Carl Baugh, was there, as was Tim Carpenter, the Bearing Precious Seed (Bible printing) representative out of my home church, Wyldewood Baptist, and our former Pastor Randy King. The messages were superb. I went to two of Bruce Malone’s workshop sessions (he also is a creation speaker) and got some ideas for future messages of my own.

My display was quite popular and I made many contacts in the upper Midwest. I have travelled several times to New York, down to Texas and Mexico, to Alabama and Florida, out to Washington state, to Russia and Poland. I love to go to different places, but I’ll also love to sprinkle meetings closer to home in between the longer trips.

My new laptop came in handy. With a 10 hour battery, I was able to show the online videos of my messages. I’ve only had a few available, but, just in time, several more were put on YouTube at my previous meeting! http://genesisevidence.org/home/what-gem-offers/gem-online-messages/

All Bible

NEW YORK

        We had a great time at First Baptist Church in Parishville, NY (Pastor Pedro Morales) for three messages on Sunday and another on Wednesday. They added Monday and Tuesday messages by popular demand. The Morales’ were very gracious hosts, doing their best to try to accommodate my food preferences. Pastor Morales put all the messages on YouTube, which I was able to use right away in my display at the Grace meeting in Illinois.

We shared an additional common bond with Pastor Morales being a native Puerto Rican, and my daughter, Hannah, taking a mission trip to Puerto Rico this winter.

I tacked on to that a return meeting to Baldwinsville, NY at Temple Baptist Church to fill the pulpit for retiring Pastor Bruce Craig. Their new pastor is  arrived the same week. He is Kevin Griffin, who was a Bible college friend of my good friend, Robert Hatch. All three recent pastors of Temple (the other being Aaron Overton) were in attendance (and no one got into a fight 🙂

On a recommendation from our Couriers for Christ missionary, Don Stertz, and from Tim Breckheimer (Temple’s song leader who I’ve know for 15+ years on the internet), Pastor Craig had me in for a Pastor’s Fellowship which gave me good exposure and is mostly responsible for the several trips I’ve made to churches in New York.

I also got to meet Mr. & Mrs. Dominic Pardi. Their son, Chip (Dominic), has been an internet compatriot of mine (and Tim) for probably 20 years on numerous email groups and forums. Additionally, I got to meet Linda Overton, who was in town at the same time.

COMING UP:

I have a few future meetings planned for later in the year, including a return to Bible Baptist Church of Winneconne, WI (Pastor Robert Hatch) in August and a meeting for the Northwoods Creation Association in Ashland, WI this fall. Tacked onto the NCA meeting will be a weekend session at Harbor Lights Baptist Church (Pastor Randy Hoffman) up in Ashland. Then comes a return to Truth Baptist Church in Portage, WI (Pastor Reggie Williams) for a weekend in October. A return to West Virginia is in the works. My 5th trip to New York is scheduled for the end of October. More on that next month.

I’ve still got room for more, especially toward winter! NOW is the time to schedule a meeting for your church. Call 920-376-0828 or respond to this email.

JUNE UPDATE

JUNE UPDATE

Barnum Brown
Harambe

This country is going APE!
         The two hot news items lately are BOTH an indication of how destructive the concept of evolution has become in our society.

We have the continuing saga of people not knowing what gender should use which facilities. President Obama came out with a directive insisting schools open up their bathrooms, locker rooms, showers, and sports teams to any gender.

Gender is a grammatical term in the first place. There are two sexes, male and female. Our society would know that if they followed Genesis.

The scary thing is that by giving “transgenders” government sanction and protection, it allows any pervert predator to have access to girl’s dressing rooms. It gives teenage boys across the country to take advantage of that and gain access to the showers with your young daughters!

The good news is that the directive also applies to sports teams. We are already seeing some boys join girl’s teams. When enough girls are forced out of sports, the left will have to back off on this gender blender nonsense at least some. Their hypocrisy will be exposed.

The other item is the accident at the Cincinnati zoo where a toddler somehow got into the gorilla enclosure. The gorilla tossed the kid around like a rag doll and surely would have killed him eventually. Had the gorilla dragged the child through trees and rocks on the ground instead of in the moat, the damage would’ve been indescribable. So the zoo officials quickly decided to shoot the gorilla after determining all other alternatives were dangerous for the child. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n08waK_9Upk

        The enviromentalists went ballistic over the demise of the animal. Again, a knowledge of the first few chapters of Genesis would tell them that Adam was created in God’s image and breathed into by the Spirt of God to become a living soul. Humans are infinitely more valuable than animals. It was a shame to lose the gorilla, but it would have been a horrible tragedy to have lost the child. The same people who think nothing of swatting an insect went apoplectic over the ape, but bugs are animals, too.

Again and again we see the evolution issue and the veracity of the early chapters of Genesis are a transforming factor in society. Getting away from Genesis brought us to this post-modern immorality. A return to Genesis can transform us back, if anything can. Current events constantly tell us that creation ministry is desperately needed in our society.

MEETINGS

We had a blast at Temple Baptist Church (Pastor Vince Williams), in Norwich, NY for a week-long series of meetings. I love getting to cover several different topics over more lengthy meetings. We had several visitors including a public school teacher.

One of the senior members there said, “I’ve learned more this week than they taught me in 30 years in the world!” It’s great to see someone’s faith in the Bible confirmed and strengthened like that.

Just before the final session it rained in the distance and formed a beautiful rainbow as a backdrop.

One of the coolest things was that Pastor Williams was looking up stuff for overhead graphics and found out that Barnum Brown was buried just a few minutes from his home (Oxford, NY). Barnum Brown was the most famous paleontologist in history. He’s the man who discovered T-Rex, among the several tons of dinosaur bones he excavated. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_Brown

        I had my normal monthly meeting at Door Bible Baptist in Brussels, WI. They said they are praying for me to remain credible. I sure hope that is the case. So far, every time I’ve encountered anyone who is an expert in a particular field, my stuff has passed muster. I also got to hear Pastor Mark Englebert preach at a recent fellowship meeting.

COMING UP:

        I’ll be back in New York soon at First Baptist Church in Parishville, NY (Pastor Pedro Morales) for three messages on Sunday and another on Wednesday. I tacked on to that a return meeting to Baldwinsville, NY at Temple Baptist Church to fill the pulpit for retiring Pastor Bruce Craig. Their new pastor is expected to arrive the same week.

At the end of June will be a VBS for All Bible Baptist Church (Pastor Peder Methum) in Milwaukee. Pastor Methum has been sending his youth to the VBS at Bro. Clayton Jones‘ church in Franklin, WI (where I have been a few times, including their VBS) and decided to have his own program this year (though I’m sure the gang at Tri-County is welcome). All Bible is an inner-city church with an outreach to minority children who will really benefit from seeing the racist implications of evolution.

In July (6, 7, 8) I’ll be an exhibitor at the “Grace Beyond Words” conference at Quentin Road Bible Baptist Church in Lake Zurich, WI, compliments of Bro. Phil Stringer. My old creationist compatriot, Dr. Carl Baugh, is also scheduled to be there.

I have a few future meetings planned for later in the year, including a meeting for the Northwoods Creation Association in Ashland, WI this fall. Tacked onto the NCA meeting will be a weekend session at Harbor Lights Baptist Church (Pastor Randy Hoffman) up in Ashland. Then comes a return to Truth Baptist Church in Portage, WI (Pastor Reggie Williams) for a weekend in October. A return to West Virginia is in the works.

I’ve still got room for more, especially July and August! NOW is the time to schedule a meeting for your church. Call 920-376-0828 or respond to this email. If any of you are interested in having me for a meeting, I have created a new page on my website that tells what I have what I might need, and some pointers and basic information.

PERSONAL ITEMS:

        I was forced to bite the bullet and buy a new laptop. It was more money than I really had available to spend, but it is well worth the cost. It’s much better and faster than my old laptops and has a convenient touch screen.

Our daughter Hannah won the grade point average award at Wyldewood Christian school. We are still celebrating. Our oldest boy, CJ, graduated from high school this month. Our oldest daughter, April, is working her way through college. I just saw an article where it takes five times as many hours to pay for tuition than it did in my college days, which makes her effort quite impressive. Our other boy, Michael just started driver’s training today.
