Recommended Resources on
Biblical Creationism
I highly recommend the following resources which affirm and defend the biblical account of creation. The biblical account of creation (i.e., “young-earth creationism”) is based upon the belief that Genesis 1-11 are historically reliable. Most of these resources are written by scientists who provide rebuttals against the ideas of deep-time and neo-Darwinian evolution. Other sources are written by biblical scholars, theologians, and historians who discuss topics such as biblical hermeneutics/exegesis, history, and theology.
​
Those who deny the historical reliability of Genesis 1-1 (e.g., old-earth creationists, progress creationists, evolutionary creationists, theistic evolutionists, atheists, agnostics, etc.) are responsible for reading and understanding the beliefs of young-earth creationists and providing responses to the arguments presented in these resources.
