Martyn Isles joins Answers in Genesis which I believe was orchestrated by God. Martyn was used mightily by God in Australia when he became CEO of Australian Christian Lobby (ACL) at a young age. Recently, when the Board of ACL decided Martyn was no longer doing the work ACL had been established to do (lobby politicians) and they decided to part company, I was sure Satan must have been behind the move.
Now that Martyn has joined Answers in Genesis which was established by Ken Ham. I am confident God is the prime mover. I knew Ken Ham when he was in Australia. I think it was back in the 1970’s, Ken co-founded Creation Science Foundation (CSF). As CSF played a major role in my coming to Jesus Christ in 1982, I was a keen supporter. When Ken and the CSF Board decided Ken should move to the USA, he asked me if I would take on the role of CEO of CSF Australia. At the time, I was CEO and owner of Christian Press Pty Ltd and knew God was calling me to take Christian Press to the secular market under the banner Care & Share Products so I declined. The man who was destined to take on CSF was not aware of it at first but God had His way and in the end and Carl Wieland took what is now Creation Ministries International (CMI) to become a truly International organisation impacting the world mightily for Jesus Christ. Likewise, God has used Ken to establish a Kingdom ministry, under the banner of Answers in Genesis that is impacting the USA in a mighty way. I am now confident as I am sure Ken Ham is that Martyn Isles is the man God has prepared to take Answers in Genesis to a new level. The short video below outlines Martyn’s new position with Answers in Genesis.
It Begins with Genesis
God’s people need to stand on the truth of God’s Word beginning in Genesis 1:1 and not compromise with the secular religion of the day—evolution and millions of years. The more this compromise runs rampant in the church, the more we will see people doubt God’s Word in Genesis and be put on a slippery slope to unbelief.
A Biblical Worldview
There is no such thing as being “worldview neutral” because that belief in itself is a worldview! Moreover, Jesus dispelled the myth of neutrality when He stated, “He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad
” (Matthew 12:30).
CHRISTIANITY: Followers of Jesus Christ who base their thinking on the Bible—and the values they hold to—are increasingly under attack throughout the culture.
ORIGINS: Creation or Evolution? The evidence reveals incredible design in the universe (e.g. DNA – complex information that controls the machinery of each living cell) and complex laws that control how the universe functions. All the evidence screams Creator not Evolution by random chance from a Big Bang.
CULTURE: Our culture is rapidly decaying as the biblical worldview is ostracized and suppressed. More than ever, Christians need to stand on the authority of God’s Word!
FAMILY: The family is under attack today like never before. The Bible provides solid answers and God’s design for family, parenting, and marriage.
LOGIC: In logic and reasoning eventually you have to appeal to an absolute authority. Which is your authority: the Bible or man’s word?
MORALITY: Does morality—right and wrong—depend upon what the majority decides? Or is morality founded upon the rock-solid foundation of God’s Word?
PRESUPPOSITIONS: Presuppositions are simply beliefs that everyone has that affect how we think, view the world, interpret evidence, and read the Bible.
RACISM: Scripture declares there is only one race—the human race! Since we are all descendants of Adam and Eve and we are all one blood, there is no basis for racism.
SANCTITY OF LIFE: Mankind is made in God’s image and therefore human life is sacred. But euthanasia, eugenics, and abortion flow naturally from pond-scum-to-people evolution.
WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LIFE? Why am I here? What is the purpose of life? Do I even matter? Your worldview determines your answers to some of life’s most perplexing questions.
WORLD RELIGIONS: Is the biblical God just one of many deities? Is Christianity just one of several paths that lead to heaven? How do we know who is right?
