The "Genesis Gap" of Creationism Revisited: The Biblical "Ruin-Reconstruction" Event
Lowrance, James M.
Synopsis "The "Genesis Gap" of Creationism Revisited: The Biblical "Ruin-Reconstruction" Event"
There is an area of theology that many Christian Bible teaching Ministries seemingly refuse to address to any reasonable length, regarding "Young Earth Creationism" versus "Old Earth Creationism" and that is a teaching called "The Genesis Gap" (sometimes also called "The Gap Theory of Creation" and "The Ruin-Reconstruction Theory"). Some specific areas of the teaching that I reference in this book, are not often being addressed in the detail they should be by most ministries that teach Bible creationism, in regard to the role of "fallen angels". This is an extremely important area of theology, as it relates both directly and indirectly to the biblical creation events, to include the original creation of things and judgments that fell from God the creator, upon some of his creations that became perverted due to purposeful rebellion from his will. This would also include information regarding Satan himself as it relates to a past dispensation that he and other angels were involved-in, that resulted in their fall from a holy heavenly realm, following their own rebellion against the authority of God their creator. While these subjects may not at first glance, appear to be key elements in regard to the Ruin-Reconstruction Bible teaching, they are in fact very key to it. It is my hope to demonstrate their importance in regard to this essential doctrine of Old Earth Creationism. (NOTE: While I have other titles available on this subject, this one contains additional perspectives and views and is not a repeat of my previous works. This book is approximately 6,193 words in length.) - - [Readers please note that while this doctrine passes scriptural rules and even common sense ones, it is still a necessity for me to add reminder, that all scripture studies, should and do come under reasonable scrutiny. This should be the stance for every Christian.]CONTENTS: CHAPTER ONE: Why am I Writing This -- My Third Book on the Genesis Gap?CHAPTER TWO: Angels in Heaven Who Rebelled Against Their CreatorCHAPTER THREE: Depriving Our Youth of Sound "Old Earth" Creationism TeachingCHAPTER FOUR: Straddling the Fence between Creationism and the Theory of EvolutionCHAPTER FIVE: Bypassing the Spiritual and Intellectualizing CreationismCHAPTER SIX: Did Angels Exist before Mankind was Created?CHAPTER SEVEN: Does God Allow the Temptation of Evil?CHAPTER EIGHT: The First and Second Adam: Death and Life Brought to MankindCHAPTER NINE: The Genesis Gap is both Logical and Scriptur
