1. There are supposed contradictions
between the Bible and modern science. This objection would cover such topics as
the age of the earth, the evolution of life, attributing supernatural agency to
natural phenomena (1 Samuel 7:10; Psalm 18:7-16; etc.). It should be remembered that science admits that it
cannot produce absolute truth but only educated guesses. Science has often
proved science wrong. Not all scientists agree. The question arises: With which
of the various scientific theories past or present should we try to make the
Bible agree? As to natural phenomena, such as rain, thunder and lightning,
etc., the Bible does not deny the existence of natural laws which are
responsible for these occurrences, but it does claim that God has control over
nature, and that if He so chooses He can use natural phenomena in seemingly
miraculous ways.
