Why is what you believe about creation important to your role as a Christian educator?
-
Teaching middle school science has given me many wonderful opportunities to teach Intelligent Design in many of my lesson. I am honored to equip my students with the knowledge they need when they encounter evolutionists in later grades. We can see God’s design in all areas of creation, from the composition of Earth’s elements, and the parts of our solar system, down to our very DNA. We can be confident that our omniscient Creator knows us and is worthy of our trust as we follow Him and His perfect ways.

Creation is very important to my role as a Christian educator because it is the foundational belief of what I teach in every subject! If God did not create the world, if it happened by chance, then there would be no one in which to believe. The understanding of Creation is the understanding of time and life as we know it in our humanness!

If an educator does not have faith in Genesis, the rest of the Bible will very soon fall as well. If someone is unable to accept the first sentence, the rest of the book will make little sense.

What I believe about creation is imporatant to my role as a teacehre because God has created every human being in his image. Because of that, each child I teach has value, not in what they can accomplish or learn, but just by being them.

It’s important to understand what the scripture says about creation. All our teaching should flow from the Word and answers to life’s fundamental questions should be answered through this teaching. We need to know what the Word says and be able to teach it to the next generation.
