The Bible does not support the theory of evolution. Instead, it presents a clear account of creation by God in six literal days, as recorded in Genesis 1. Evolution, which teaches that all life forms developed over millions of years through natural processes, directly contradicts the biblical narrative of sudden, purposeful creation.
Genesis 1:25–27 affirms:
“And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind… Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.’”
The phrase “according to its kind” is repeated throughout the chapter, emphasizing distinct boundaries between created organisms. This stands against the evolutionary idea of common ancestry across species.
Furthermore, the creation of man is presented as unique. Unlike animals, humans were formed in the image of God, with a distinct spiritual nature and moral responsibility. Evolution undermines this distinction and denies the special creation of humanity.
Exodus 20:11 reinforces the literal six-day creation:
“For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day.”
Jesus Himself affirmed the Genesis account, referring to Adam and Eve as historical individuals created “from the beginning” (Mark 10:6).
The theory of evolution promotes a worldview based on human reasoning and naturalism, while the Bible presents a theocentric view grounded in divine authority. Belief in evolution leads to the rejection of a historical Adam, the original sin, and ultimately the need for redemption.
Faithful interpretation of Scripture upholds that God created all life in six days, each after its kind, with man as a direct creation of God, not the product of evolutionary processes.
