Now, in verse 20, he says, And God
said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the
moving creature that hath life, and fowl that
may fly above the earth in the open
firmament of heaven.
Now, you do have here a certain amount,
and don't misunderstand me now, evolution.
Now, if you mean by evolution, not just
everything came from one little cell, but that
God made one of each creature, and you
will notice it says he made each one
after his kind, and that doesn't mean species,
as even Darwin said.
It means more than that.
The word is filia.
I have been reading what one scientist has
said, and he's been looking around for another
word.
Well, I had a professor in seminary, a
very brilliant man.
He gave the name filia, and if you
look that up, that would include not just
one horse, but it would include every animal,
including a zebra, everything that belongs to the
horse family.
God created one like that.
Now, there's been development from those, by the
way, and I believe that that is true,
but to say that everything originated from one
little amoeba, and God is not the creator,
that's the thing we object to, there's been
tremendous development, I think, and also development, and
that means it went downward.
God created great whales, every living creature that
moveth which the waters brought forth abundantly after
their kind, and every wing fell after his
kind, and God saw that it was good.
Do you notice that?
When God does it, it's good, and God
blessed them, saying, be fruitful and multiply, fill
the waters and the seas, let fowl multiply
in the earth.
And by the way, this scientist said that
if we're going to teach the creation story,
ought to teach the stork story.
Believe me, the Bible certainly gets rid of
the stork story if you read it very
carefully.
These animals had to bring forth, and it
will be true of man also.
You don't find little Willie under a stump,
and the stork didn't bring little Susie either,
but God did create the heavens and the
earth, by the way.
Now, will you notice, and the evening and
the morning were the fifth day.
Now, we have the first five days.
