How ever&mdash\;&ldquo\;There is a way which seems right to a man\, but its en d is the way of death.&rdquo\; (Proverbs 14:12) These wizards include evol utionists\, new agers\, atheists and sincere followers of false religions. The wise man\, on the other hand\, knows the right path to follow and to whom he should listen. Christians are to learn how to walk as wise men\, & ldquo\;making the most of our time\, because the days are evil.&rdquo\; (E phesians 5:15) Come join us as we take a walk on the &ldquo\;wise&rdquo\; side.

Isn&rsquo\;t this discussion unnecessarily di visive to the Christian community? Are we not losing credibility with the scientific community and hurting the cause of Christ among non-Christians by insisting on a literal interpretation of Genesis 1-3?&rdquo\; Learn to respond biblically to such charges so that &ldquo\;no one takes you captiv e through philosophy and empty deception.&rdquo\; Old-earthers\, progressi ve creationists and other wizards come try and stump the wild-eyed\, fanat ical\, six-day creationist.\n\nFollow Christ? It&rsquo\;s just a &lsquo\;F AD!&rsquo\; Will it Pass the Test of Time?\n\n(II Timothy 1:7) Christian p arents and teachers want their children and their students to love God.
