BioLogos: The Deceptive Agenda to Undermine Biblical Truth with Evolutionary Mythology

This morning, I ran across an article by Gregory Adaka on BioLogos that claims you can reconcile faith in the living God with the religion of evolution—an increasingly popular claim in Christendom, yet a claim that is as absurd as it is dangerous.

BioLogos, a nefarious organization masquerading as a bridge between faith and science, is dedicated to undermining the authority of Scripture by promoting such horrors as “theistic evolution.” Adaka's article is a prime example of this deception, attempting to blend the clear, unchanging Word of God with the ever-evolving fancies of human speculation.

Adaka begins by reminiscing about his secular upbringing in the UK, his eventual move to Nigeria, and his fluctuating relationship with Christianity. He claims, "It wasn’t until my first year of residency as a medical doctor that I rediscovered my Faith for good." But let's be clear—this rediscovery is not the faith of the Bible. It's a half-hearted submission to the doctrines of fallible, ever-changing scientific consensus.

To be completely clear, true faith is grounded in the infallible, unchanging revelation of God, not in the transient theories of men. Sadly, Adaka’s version of faith is one that submits the authority of Scripture to the creeds of science, a move that fundamentally undermines the Christian faith.

Adaka recounts an encounter with a fellow medical resident, describing how a conversation about evolutionary creationism "changed everything." He writes, "I realized that there was room for God in our evolutionary origin story."

This statement reveals a grave misunderstanding of both the Bible and evolutionary theory. The only way to make room for evolution in the biblical creation story is to discard or distort key parts of Scripture. The Bible is clear that death entered the world through Adam's sin and that this death necessitated the redemptive work of Christ. Evolution, with its narrative of millions of years of death and suffering before human sin, directly contradicts this foundational Christian doctrine. If death existed before sin, the entire gospel message collapses.
