Evolution and Creation: Harmonizing Science with Scripture
Science provides evidence and explanations for the Bible. The Bible finishes Science. The two are supposed to be Inseparable. Science shows the existence of God and The Bible tells us about who that God is. Don't they complement each other? Okay, first off we will start with Biological Origins.
Evolution is the gradual change of a species' traits over time. This change forms new species better fitted for future generations. In the Book Of Genesis, we see the different ages or generations of creation. These show different times and what creatures lived during those periods. See how they complement each other?
SEA EVOLUTION (MICRO-ORGANISMS TO SEA CREATURES)
In Evolution, there is something called the Cambrian Explosions. These are mini-big bangs that occurred in the evolution of biological species. They resulted in multiple diverse new groups of species out of "nowhere". Darwin's theory is not enough to explain this phenomenon, but the Bible does! This is where the Bible comes in to finish science.
In Genesis chapter 2, Moses writes an account. He describes it as, the genealogy of the creation. It details the heavens and earth when God made them in Chapter one. This indicates different generations or ages when God created the heavens and the earth. You also know them as days.
Fast forward to the fifth day (the fifth age of creation). God tells the sea to fill up itself with moving creatures. This initiates a sudden outburst of new species out of "nowhere". This is the fifth generation of creation and this shows the reason for the Cambrian Explosions. In prior generations, chapter one of Genesis shows the evolution of the first forms of biological life from the oceans. This is consistent with science.
Science says, after the big bang, The Earth formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a disk of gas and dust orbiting the young Sun. Initially, it was a molten, extremely hot body. Over millions of years, as the planet cooled, water vapor condensed and rained down. This likely happened due to comets and volcanic outgassing. Eventually, this process formed oceans. 
On the third day in Genesis chapter one, God gathered the waters He initially formed into one place. Then, He caused the dry land to appear from it. Science holds that life emerged in these early oceans much later—around 3.5 to 4 billion years ago. The earliest forms of life were single-celled microorganisms. These simple life forms gradually evolved over billions of years into the complex life seen today. We know from scripture that various spirit creatures existed in the waters before it was put into one place. Because plants, trees, and other herbs originally came from the waters. The dry land emerged from the waters. Therefore, microorganisms existed in the waters before moving sea creatures or species formed.
LAND EVOLUTION (HUMAN BEINGS FROM COMMON ANCESTORS)
This is the BIG PART. Did we evolve from a common ancestor thousands of years ago? Scientists suggest there is a link between Humans and African great apes from. Let's find out.
Now, in the book of Genesis in the 6th day or age of creation. God formed land creatures out of the dry land. This dry land was gotten from the sea. God also formed man during this time later from the dust of the ground. Humans originally come from God. He created them from the dust. God also breathed His Spirit of Life into them. But this observation is not evident to science. Science discovered the generation of a separate human race that evolved out of other creatures or species. In scientific terms, common ancestors.
Where did this separate Human race come from? It came from Cain. He was the first man to be banished completely out of the Garden of Paradise. Where God walked in the Garden with Adam and Eve. Cain knew his wife and built a city outside The Garden of Eden. He established the first genealogy of the human race that is apart from God. This is where evolution is last traced back to.
Who was Cain's wife? In the beginning all animals, species or living creatures were alive. They were living souls. They could talk and commune with Adam. This is why God asked Adam to name all the creatures. Why? To see if he would find a suitable partner for himself, since he could not, God made Eve. A creature of the same species, equal but opposite from Adam. So after Adam and Eve sinned against God, they lost their glorious body and were naked. God gave them an animal skin of a sheep to cover their shame. Hence, why we have flesh bodies and not actual dust bodies today. So because of this after Cain was expelled completely, he knew other creatures that were outside the garden. Forming a hybrid race of creatures and common ancestors science has detected. Which forms our population today, some are traced from Adam, others from common ancestors. This points to something bigger in the Bible and our world as a whole.
We will stop here for now. Comment and share this revelation. Ask any questions. Let us know if you want a part 2. We will explain how science supports scripture. This will be from the cosmological basis of the Big Bang Theory. Or if you prefer a continuation of this lecture, let us know!
God bless you!
