Bringing Creation Science to New England

Read about our Vision, Mission, and Beliefs:

The Vision:

No matter which way you swing it, the truth of the origin of the universe will directly impact the most important questions concerning our lives: why are we here? What is our purpose? Is there a higher power we should listen to? For millennia, cultures have constructed myths and stories to explain our own origins, from pagan myths to holy books to philosophical armchair ramblings. Today, a singular story dominates the intellectual landscape: the theory of evolution, which states that all living things (animals, plants, bacteria, etc.) are directly descended from a common ancestor billions of years in earth's past. While compelling as a purely scientific idea, the theory of evolution comes with theological and philosophical baggage. It reduces eternal, metaphysical things like love and justice into purely biological processes designed purely for the reproduction of genes, it clashes with the idea of a fallen creation, and it negates the doctrine of sin causing death. As a result, it stands in stark contrast with the Biblical narrative. It is time to push for a reformation of thinking when it comes to creation; not because we just can't stand the science, but because the dominant scientific consensus simply cannot be reconciled with philosophy, the Biblical account, or the universal human experience. We are taking a theological stance against evolution, and a scientific stance in favor of Biblical creation.

 What We Believe

1. The Bible is the inerrant Word of God. It was written by men who were themselves inspired by the Holy Spirit. It accurately describes the history of the world and defines the relationship between God and His creation.
2. Adam and Eve were the first humans (Genesis 2). They were specially created in the image of God and lived in the Garden of Eden, as described in Genesis 103. Interpreting Adam and Eve as nonhistorical is
3. Creation is in a fallen state because of the Fall of Man (Genesis 3). When God created the universe, it was "very good" (Genesis 1:31). There was no sin, death (physical or spiritual), or suffering. Adam and Eve's sin in the garden brought a curse on creation, introducing death into the natural world (Romans 5:12). This fallen state is the reason mankind, and all creation, are born into a broken world and are in need of a Savior.
4. The Flood of Noah's day was worldwide (Genesis 11). Noah and his family were the sole human survivors of the flood, which dramatically reshaped the world.
   
5. Jesus is the son of God, who died on behalf of sinners and rose again from the dead. As the Gospels describe, Jesus Christ offers salvation through his death and resurrection. While Adam caused the death of many through his act of sin, Jesus Christ is the "Last Adam" who offers salvation through his act of sacrifice (Romans 5:15-21, 1 Corinthians 15:45).
6. The theory that all life evolved from a common ancestor (i.e. the theory of evolution) is incompatible with the theology of the Bible. Universal common ancestry (U.C.A.) contradicts Biblical theology in major ways, including but not limited to: the denial of the special creation of man, the existence of death and suffering before human sin, and the doctrine that creation itself is not in a fallen state. In these ways and more, U.C.A. challenges ancient and fundamental Christian doctrines concerning why the world needs a Savior.
