Mistakes God Did Not Make: Part 4

from The Preaching of the Cross

Some sermons don’t try to sound polite, they try to be clear. Brother James keeps moving through an old, worn booklet he loves, “Mistakes God Did Not Make,” and uses it to challenge evolution, agnosticism, and atheism with a simple question: can your worldview stay consistent when you follow it all the way to the end? From population control and planned parenthood arguments to the logic of “survival of the fittest,” we press on the places where modern certainty starts to wobble. We also take on familiar Bible objections people repeat without reading the text: the appendix as “proof” of a lower origin, the claim that Scripture teaches a flat earth, and the broader accusation that faith is anti science. Along the way, we talk Bible and science in plain language, pointing to passages about the circle of the earth and the idea of the earth being hung “upon nothing,” then turning the spotlight back onto the easy assumptions skeptics swallow. The conversation sharpens when we deal with theistic evolution, liberal Christianity, and the habit of denying miracles while promising eternal life. We dig into what it means to claim there can be no miracles, and why “thinking without a brain” may be the biggest miracle claim of all. We also address cultural myths like “we’re all God’s children,” expose bad teaching around racism and the mark of Cain, and answer common ridicule about Noah’s flood and long biblical lifespans. If you care about Christian apologetics, biblical creation, and the real-world stakes of theology, listen through to the end and tell us what part challenged you most.
