There is a constant effort made to explain the work of creation as the result of natural causes; and human reasoning is accepted even by professed Christians, in opposition to plain Scripture facts. There are many who oppose the investigation of the prophecies, especially those of Daniel and the Revelation, declaring them to be so obscure that we cannot understand them; yet these very persons eagerly receive the suppositions of geologists, in contradiction of the Mosaic record. But if that which God has revealed is so difficult to understand, how inconsistent it is to accept mere suppositions in regard to that which He has not revealed!

Der gøres stadig store anstrengelser for at forklare skaberværket som et resultat af naturlige årsager, og menneskelige teorier antages selv af bekendende kristne i strid med skriftens klare kendsgerninger. Der er mange, der er imod, at profetierne, især Daniels og Åbenbaringens, gøres til genstand for omhyggeligt studium, idet de hævder, at de er så dunkle, at vi ikke kan forstå dem. Og dog griber disse mennesker med iver geologiske teorier, som modsiger den mosaiske beretning. Men hvis det, Gud har åbenbaret, er så vanskeligt at forstå, er det da langt mere inkonsekvent at acceptere teorier om det, han ikke har åbenbaret!
