AUSTRALIAN BIBLICAL CREATION
I am perhaps best known for my paintings of trees and my slogan:
'God's creation, my inspiration. He put the Art in my HeArt'

GREETINGS AND WELCOME FROM WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Lyn and I are Biblical Creationists, based in suburban Perth, Western Australia.
Whenever we can we escape suburbia to enjoy God's creation in the Outback.
Even though we both worked long and hard in horticulture and floriculture, in our retirement we enjoy working in our garden with its trees, flowers and ponds.
We also enjoy our artwork. Lyn is a mosaic artist and I am a landscape artist.
I hope you enjoy my writings, paintings and the photos that my wife and I
have taken in our wanderings in various parts of Australia.
(Plus images, videos and writings kindly supplied by other sources).

NOT ALL PEOPLE SHARE OUR BELIEFS.
We don't all share the same beliefs, but we do all share common ground with our freedom of choice.
We can choose, to be Creationists or not, Christian or non-Christian and when it comes to evidence for our beliefs, again we all share the same common ground. We all share the same evidence. Our evidence comes from the same earth, the same fossil layers, the same flora and fauna, the same solar system, the same past, present and future and we all share the same facts.
Where we differ, is in the way we choose to interpret the evidence and because we start with different presuppositions, we interpret the facts differently.
We then assume these things to be true, but we are unable to prove them.
Our reasoning is based on presuppositions. This is particularly relevant when dealing with past events.
We all exist in the same present and all facts exist in the present.
In trying to understand how the evidence came about, we ask questions such as: Where did the animals come from?
What happened to the Dinosaurs?
How did the fossil layers form?
And so on.
What we are really doing is trying to connect the past to the present.
But none of us were there in the past to observe these events.
So how can we know what happened and how can we explain the present?
These are the questions that I attempt to explain on 'Australian Biblical Creation'

'REAL' SCIENTISTS BELIEVE IN GOD AND CREATION!
Never say: "Real Scientists don't believe in Creation"

DO YOU THINK you ARE a biblical creationist?’
Not sure if you are or not? Do the test. (Creation Ministries International)
Nine questions to ascertain whether your future pastor, youth group leader or Bible College principal takes a straightforward view of Genesis.
Nine questions to ascertain whether your future pastor, youth group leader or Bible College principal takes a straightforward view of Genesis.
IN A COURT OF LAW
We all share the same freedom of choice & we all share the same evidence.
We can all choose to believe or not to believe. We can build our presuppositions on the historic writings of the bible or we can build on our presuppositions on newly presented evidence (the recent writings of others) or we are at liberty to develop our own theories or we can simply go on not believing the truth.

We can build our presuppositions on the historic writings of the bible or we can build on our presuppositions on newly presented evidence (the recent writings of others) or we are at liberty to develop our own theories or we can simply go on not believing the truth.
Colossians 1:16
"For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him" [The 'Him' is the Great 'I AM' - GOD!]

The Bible believing Christian claims to have been enlightened in these matters. They rely on the historic records in the Bible and recognize them to be the Word of God who was there before the beginning and has revealed to us all, the major events of the past.
WHY I AM A BIBLICAL CREATIONIST
I believe the Bible is the Word of God and that it is accurate and truthful in all that it says. It has, to my satisfaction, been tested and found to be true in history, archaeology and fulfilled prophecy. Therefore I accept the Bible’s authority in the account of the origin of life. |
I believe the biblical account of creation because to me it is the best explanation for the complexity of design in nature that I have personally witnessed.
Everything I see in Skies, Oceans, Deserts and Forests points to a divine designer.
I have worked closely with flowers and in them I see wonderful and precise design. The beauty and purpose of flowers, their variations in shape, colour and fragrance, to me, all point to a divine artist.
The age of the earth cannot be proven nor disproved by science or by scripture.
All methods used are based on presuppositions. Both supporters of a young earth or an old earth believe what they believe by faith alone.
The scientific evidence for the age of the earth is the same for both young earth and old earth supporters. Research based on this shared evidence by either party amounts only to a feasibility study but never to proof.
The Christian and the Jew (if faithful to the Holy Scriptures) has faith in the Word of God. Others who do not have faith in the Word of God may have faith in the word of man, faith in themselves or just give up and either believe in a god of their own imagination or ..... simply don’t believe anything.

WE ALL HAVE A GOD GIVEN FREEDOM OF CHOICE
We may choose to accept or reject God’s gift of what I believe is the true and historic explanation of the beginnings of things as recorded in the Bible, but in so doing, no matter what ones faith is in, no matter what ones presuppositions are based upon, we all accept God’s gift of freedom of choice.
I see this as more evidence for there being a Loving & Caring Creator God of all things. Our Gracious God gives us a freedom of choice to accept or reject the truth. He offers us the answers to the questions we all ask and offers us a way to eternal life. |
BEGINNING OF WISDOM
My belief that our shared evidence points to God's Creation, makes me no greater a person than one who chooses to not believe. However I lay claim to being wise.
My wisdom is not gained through my 77 years on this earth (as at 2022) .
True wisdom is gained by ones acceptance of and respect for their Creator God.
Proverbs 9:9-10
Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; Teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. “ The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

About Young Earth Creationism
As a Young-earth Creationists I believe the biblical account as stated in Genesis 1, of God creating all things in a literal six (24-hour) days.
I believe this occurred around 6,000 years ago. I also believe that a little over 4,000 years in the days of Noah, the surface of the earth was destroyed and radically rearranged by the global flood .
All land animals and birds not in Noah’s Ark (along with many sea creatures) perished, many of which were subsequently buried in the Flood sediments.

Job 38:4-7
Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding.Who determined its measurements? Surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone, When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?” |
I PRAISE GOD FOR MY ABILITY TO PRODUCE ART
God's creation, my inspiration. He put the Art in my HeArt'
In my art I attempt to capture the essence of the natural world around me in its diverse splendour, colour and intrigue, but compared to the awesome wonder of God’s creation, the work of this mere mortal, reverts to nothing more than paint, crudely daubed, onto canvas. |
