While we can’t characterize Christians who promote old-earth theories as being false converts, their position weakens their testimony to an already cynical secular society.

“He will always deserve worship, reverence, and praise. His throne will be forever lofty and exalted.“

“God’s plan for those who would listen and respond is perfect love!”
