Evolutionary Thinking

The theory of evolution is a science that tries to prove to the world that all diverse living organisms and intelligent beings are the result of some strange accident that happened billions of years ago. Suddenly life appeared from nothing and began to progress, being reborn into new complex species, taking something better from previous generations. As a result of this evolution, animals appeared that at some point in history decided to become intelligent beings.

If anyone has studied biology and anatomy, they can declare that any disease and mutation lead to degeneration and death, without improvement of subsequent offspring. And the complexity and harmonious structure of a living organism at the genetic level amazes every researcher, putting any theory of evolution at a dead end.

But one way or another, this theory has not gone into the past as a dummy, but has firmly entered the school curriculum, established itself in secular society and is purposefully imposed on the world as the only logical explanation of where we came from and where we are going. But at the same time, it continues to be a theory. And a theory is an assumption that requires proof, and there are none in the "theory of evolution," and what supposedly exists can be put in one suitcase. And on this suitcase of ancient bones, learned men try to build fantastic assumptions about the development of the world. But modern technologies and visualization of their arguments come to their aid.

Unfortunately, this evolutionary spirit has very firmly established itself in the minds of many people, and the world has swallowed this foolishness and created scientific atheism - a science in which there is no place for God. And the place where there is no God is filled with darkness, cold, and immorality. For products of random occurrence there can be no moral values, morality, and meaning to their life. The concept of evil or sin is absent, and the culture of society and social values are unnecessary restrictions that can be ignored. And all this is taught to our children under the guise of a theory that in 170 years of its appearance in the world, they have still not been able to prove.

Unfortunately, children's study of this science brings many psychological and moral problems into their lives. When a person cannot identify themselves and understands that they are a simple accident in which the fittest survives, then the whole meaning of life comes down to taking everything from life, living only for oneself and for one's pleasure, achieving one's goals at the expense of others and doing what one wants with impunity. And for many, accidental life is not worth valuing and fighting for, and there is no meaning and joy in it when you are not at the top of power and strength. But it is also sad that the place in a person's heart that is intended for God is filled by another spirit, opposite to God's, and intelligent beings simply do not have the strength and power to resist the presence and influence of demons in their lives. And what will the spirits of wickedness in high places give people? Many problems that will be impossible to solve on their own.

What influence does the evolutionary point of view have?

• loss of faith in God;

• doubt in Biblical truths;

• destruction of perception of reality in the creative process of our world's development;

• absence of alternative points of view;

• narrowing of horizons;

• predominance of material values and passionate desire to possess them;

• absence of moral guidelines;

• no responsibility for one's behavior in light of Eternity;

• absence of fear before just punishment for sin;

• the concept of sin becomes blurred or completely absent;

• everything is evaluated from the position of strength and power;

• not recognizing one's specialness and uniqueness;

• loss of meaning of life and impossibility of understanding it;

• devaluation of human life;

• predominance of pride and selfishness in one's heart;

• animal fear before one's death;

• development of apathy, depression and emergence of suicidal thoughts;

• loss of compassion;

• development of discrimination;

• destruction of family values and respect for parents;

• raising a godless generation;

• loss of spiritual heritage.

Fortunately, in such societies God has established laws that restrain godless passions and keep people in fear of punishment. God continues to love even godless representatives of the human race and desires that they be happy and go toward the light, living in utter darkness. Even in the laws of the most atheistic countries, many principles of God's laws are embedded that cannot be rejected, otherwise there will be catastrophe and anarchy and lawlessness will begin.

The most ardent defenders of the theory of evolution are not professors with academic education, but young elementary school teachers who received an educational program and must teach children according to it, without delving into the meaning of the program. The state educational system does not allow changes to be made to the curriculum and therefore teachers and parents have no chance to change anything in the proposed subjects.

But believing parents understand what spirit dominates in secular schools and therefore, if they do not have the opportunity to send their child to a Christian educational institution or teach them at home, then they need to ask for special wisdom to get ahead of teachers in instilling the correct understanding of human origin and wisely resist the secular upbringing of their children.

Truth that has convinced a child will forever remain in their heart and no amount of lies will be able to shake what has a firm foundation, logical explanation and mass of evidence in nature and God's Word.

It is also worth understanding that those who have evolutionary thinking are victims of worldwide deception and need true light, which can only be given to them by those who believe in the True God and Jesus Christ whom He sent.

God-fearing parents need to be wise and careful in communicating with an unbelieving teacher, because any negativity extracted from communication will necessarily be reflected on their children who are under the influence of this educator.

I have heard many testimonies from believing brethren who studied in Soviet schools or sent their children there, about how they resisted the atheistic spirit, how they went through difficulties and trials, and came out of the fire as victors, and some were lost forever.

Dear parents, if you have the opportunity not to send your children to secular schools, then do everything to protect your heritage from the corrupting influence of the world. Even if this prompts you to change your place of residence or lose your job in a comfortable place, take advantage of any opportunity for your children to receive true spiritual education. It is worth it and will delight you in all subsequent years when you see the fruit of the Spirit in your children's lives.

If you do not have such an advantage and life circumstances force you to send your children to secular schools, then fight for them, and God will help you in any difficult situation and lead you through this trial and the flame will not scorch you.

It is worth remembering that God's law and the Bible have survived all regimes and have not undergone changes, and have clearly conveyed to us what is still relevant, valuable and correct, giving meaning to life and its values.
