Did God Really Say That?: Creation and Biblical Authority

Have you ever wondered as a Christian whether Adam and Eve really were the first two humans living? Or, where did Cain get his wife? Is the earth really 4.6 billion years old? Are humans related to apes? Why is there death in the world? Was Noah's Flood worldwide? Where did languages come from? What about cave men? What about distant starlight? Did Jesus really rise from the dead? This book will give you the answers to these questions. Written in a down-to-earth style that bridges the gap between the academic and the popular, you will will find it very readable and enjoyable.
