The May/June 2010 volume of Modern Reformation, published by Dr. Michael Horton (Westminster Seminary, Escondido), noted for his radio program, The White Horse Inn, included a note by eight geologists who are members of the PCA. It can be accessed at http://modernreformation.org. In the article, these men propose that the denomination accept the old-earth view of Genesis based on arguments from the discipline of geology. This response was developed to demonstrate to laymen that their arguments are neither based on proper authority nor are scientifically compelling. It will also show important connections between prehistory and Enlightenment secularism. All of these considerations should drive us back to the Bible.
There is a concerted effort today for some to abandon the historic position of the Church concerning the age of the earth. More specifically, there are those who have a different interpretation of the creation account in Genesis 1 and 2 which is far different than how it has been understood and expressed in the historic confessions, particularly those confessions which underlie the Reformed churches.

In this article by Dr. John K. Reed, a noted geologist and elder in the PCA, argues for the historic view and shows the inherent errors of this modern view. I would encourage everyone to read through this article carefully because sooner or later you will be confronted with this modern approach to the doctrine of creation.

In His service and grace,
