This is the biblical explanation of creation and the inclusion of evolution. All things were made by and for God. This book explains the different geologic periods, animals, dinosaurs, and fossil records. This book should leave the reader with the undeniable knowledge that all was created by God and that all other theories are just educated guesses. For professing themselves wise men, they became fools.
