AFTER THEIR KINDS

How wonderful, your dog has just had puppies! But do you now have to sort through the litter and make sure there are no baby giraffes or kangaroos?


In God’s account of creation in Genesis 1 we repeatedly read that both plants and animals were created to reproduce “after their kind.” Genesis 1, in speaking about the creation of plants, repeats three times in just two verses that they are to reproduce “after their kind.” We see the same phrase repeated later in the chapter when animals are created.


Why does God stress this principle? Even before creation God knew that man would eventually sin and then seek to hide his responsibility by trying to explain things without a Creator. God knew that this idea of evolution would capture the faith of millions over the history of the world.


And so He stresses what our experience shows so that He might be harder for men to hide from All things do reproduce after their kinds. And despite evolutionists’ strong faith in evolution they cannot offer on e established scientific fact to explain how one kind of creature might eventually make a completely different kind!

Isn't it wonderful that current controversies are answered from the beginning?
