“And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.” Revelation 12:9
Our English cell group had a great meeting last Saturday night. Chris a German friend did a good job of explaining that there is really a Creator-God by giving such a very relevant illustration. We encountered a question regarding the existence of the pre-historic man from a man who adhere evolution. We don't want anybody else goes out from the meeting with a confuse mind but of course we cannot avoid and so I spent my half day developing an article regarding this to answer the question Biblically.
I had attended a government school when I was in high school and I found out that the theory of evolution has been well accepted and taught as they thought the most factual theory to explain the origin of man. That is the sad picture we can readily observe today.
What is the real problem nowadays? The trouble is that many people today consult the inaccurate data of science to find out whether the Bible is true. They criticized the Bible, instead of consulting the Bible to find out whether their scientific conclusion is telling the truth. Science has a lot of mistakes. They have consulted the works of the so called “intellectual giants” rather than God’s word, the work of the INFINITE ONE. Scientists have done a lot of amazing invention and are intellectually genius but they are human, subject to make mistakes. Of course there are two kinds of science-the false science (inspired by Satan) and the true science (inspired by God).
Whenever I encountered a question like related to evolution, it would only remind me of the power of Satan to create confusion everywhere to block the humanity to believe God. In fact because of his active inspiration of the false science, he has been very successful to lead many to believe that there is no God.
How about the issue of amalgamation? There is so much wickedness in the world and who is inspiring them? SATAN does. Look at these two passages for example;
“Also you shall not have intercourse with any animal to be defiled with it, nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it; it is a perversion.” Leviticus 18:23
“When a woman offers herself sexually to any animal, you must kill both the woman and the animal. They must be put to death. They deserve to die.” Leviticus 20:16.
God said don’t but many have disobeyed. Go to Google engine and search women or men having sex with animals and you will be amazed the wickedness of the world which is inspired by the devil. Science tries to prove and said it is impossible that the sexual union of man and animal could produce offspring. Yes, that is if our world is only mere science-base without thinking the supernatural phenomenon authored by the spirit world (both good and bad). So is it impossible for Satan to do this? Look at these;
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6: 12
With great surprise a disciple asked Jesus, “And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, 'Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have weeds? He said to them, 'An enemy has done this. So the servants said to him, 'Then do you want us to go and gather them?” Matthew 13:27, 28.
While God put everything in order, Satan, the enemy of God, works to create confusion. It is not impossible for Satan to do such wonders. He will be a skillful deceiver. "He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs... “ Revelation 13: 13-15.
The work of Satan is to confuse to deceive the world. The point is that Satan is actively involved and responsibility for all evil confusion in our world. Satan has mighty power to amaze the intellectuals and leaders. He works confuse to get their attention. Look at this carefully;
“The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "When Pharaoh says to you, 'Perform a miracle,' then say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,' and it will become a snake." So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD commanded. Aaron threw his staff down in front of Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a snake. Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts: Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs. 13 Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.” Exodus 7: 8-13.
Satan can do miracle almost similar to what God could do. Whenever God created a genuine, there is a counterfeit and Satan masterminded them. The point is we must believe that Satan the enemy of God is powerful to manufacture amalgamated living organisms to deceive us. Satan has been trying to establish facts that could appear to be scientific.
With this, I believe the plain statement of one of the great religious author;
“But if there was one sin above another which called for the destruction of the race by the flood, it was the base crime of amalgamation of man and beast which defaced the image of God, and caused confusion everywhere. God purposed to destroy by a flood that powerful, long-lived race that had corrupted their ways before him.” Spiritual Gifts, vol. 3, 64.
If God could inspire holy men, Satan could also inspire his wicked men to have sexual intercourse with animals. Do you think they couldn’t produce confuse offspring under the inspiration of Satan? Do you think Satan couldn’t make them to appear as pre-historic men that look like half human and half beast? If you are not fully convince yet that Satan is powerful enough to mastermind this, then read again Exodus 7: 8-13 to see how Satan successfully deceived Pharaoh.
Secondly, how about the almost unbelievable endless species of animals cause by amalgamation? The inspired author added, “Every species of animal which God had created were preserved in the ark. The confused species which God did not create, which were the result of amalgamation, were destroyed by the Flood. Since the Flood there has been amalgamation of man and beast, as may be seen in the almost endless varieties of species of animals, and in certain races of men.” Spiritual Gifts, vol. 3, 75.
Take note that Satan is the mastermind of amalgamation. Therefore the endless of variety of species are not evidence to support evolution theory, as many believed, but it is the evidence of the mighty work of the enemy of God. The Lord commanded “Keep my laws. Do not let your cattle have offspring by those of a different sort; do not put mixed seed into your field…” Leviticus 19:19. But somehow many hardened their hearts and did not obey God and they were inspired by the devil.
Finally, Christian must be aware that, “our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6: 12.
Satan is a mighty deceiver “And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.” Revelation 12:9 And so Apostle Paul warns us to “Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.” Ephesians 6:11.
