"Science Falsely So Called"

"O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called 'knowledge'--" (1 Timothy 6:20-- NASB)

The KJV says, "
and oppositions of science falsely so called."  I submit to you that this is the modern expression of, "the fruit of the tree," in Genesis three. 

George Barna, well known researcher, recently reported, "In America, 3500 to 4000 churches close their doors each year.  Churches lose an estimated, 2,765,000 people each year to nominalism and secularism."  And, I may add, for so very many people who sit in church services week after week, not only in America, but around the world, their church has al
ready "closed." These people already have been secularized, willingly dominated by colleagues, media, and their culture.  Americans recently affirmed this in the past national elections.  Most people voted their race, ethnicity, gender, and social status.   It was not the Democrats who won the election; it was, "the opposing arguments of what is falsely called 'knowledge." (!!) 

The central reason for the reign of, "
falsely called 'knowledge,'" or, "science falsely so called," is that for generations now, American universities and seminaries have willingly embraced all forms of Darwinism to the almost total exclusion of the Word of God.  Here is how "amazon.com" describes the book, Endless Forms: Charles Darwin, Natural Science, and the Visual Arts: "Charles Darwin's revolutionary theories of evolution and natural selection have not only had a profound influence on the fields of biology and natural history, but also provided fertile territory for the creative imagination."  I have no doubt that the plague of closed church doors and secularized Christians is due to the fact that American churches have replaced the Bible with, "creative imagination." 

The battle is raging ferociously, and it is only those who are radically, yes, radically obedient to Jesus Christ, Word of God, and His "
God-Breathed" Words who will survive in such an environment.  If you are not in such a church------------------------------------ change churches.

Father, in Jesus' Name, I thank You for the promise of Your Word, "
which also effectively works in [us] who believe."  Amen.
