This is a rather unusual chapter, as it consists of only one page. Morris gives the story of Jesus relating how if the people will not listen to the prophets, they will not be persuaded by Jesus' words and miracles.

Clearly there are no facts to back up his young earth position, so the only weapon he has is emotions. On to chapter four...
