Volume 141 of Answers with Ken Ham

This is Ken Ham, CEO of the ministry that built a full-size Noah’s Ark south of Cincinnati.

Yesterday we learned that Jesus said God created Adam and Eve at the beginning of creation. They weren’t made millions of years after the beginning, but at the beginning. This means Genesis is history and the millions of years are a fairytale.


Well, in Luke chapter eleven, Jesus speaks of the blood of the prophets that have been shed since the foundation of the world, and he mentions the first and last martyrs of the Old Testament—from Abel to Zechariah. This means Abel, the son of Adam, lived very soon after the foundation of the world, not millions of years later.


Millions of years doesn’t fit with Genesis and it doesn’t fit with the New Testament either!
