It is often claimed that since the DNA of chimpanzees and humans is 98.5% identical, they must have shared a common evolutionary ancestor millions of years ago. 

Dr. Bierle was doing a presentation on creation and evolution, when a person in the audience asserted that a date for the global flood 4,500 years ago would not allow enough time for the three reproducing couples on the Ark to repopulate to the present population of about eight billion people. Does the Bible’s claim make historical and mathematical sense? (cf. Genesis 7:13)

Anyone who is acquainted with the Bible should be familiar with the apostles of Jesus. References to Peter, Paul, James, John, and others occur throughout the New Testament. Many people have also heard the names of some of the great church fathers of the Christian faith such as Augustine, Irenaeus, Origin, and others.

It is estimated that by 2026, more than three million farmers in India will be able to access underground water using solar pumps. Once they are installed, these pumps can supply water using light from the sun without additional expense. This will increase badly needed food production in parched rural communities throughout India, Africa, and elsewhere. With the extra water they can even grow cash crops which provide income for poor communities. That’s the good news.
