Death Before Sin

     When you consider the age of the earth debate, the heart of the matter is death before sin.  If it were not for this one argument, most young earth creation science arguments would disappear.  A proper understanding of this concept is critical to having the right interpretation of the Scriptures.

     We invite you to delve deeper into this issue in the articles below.  We've identified articles from other old earth creationist websites, as well as posting some from our own website, giving you the perspective of nine different old earth creationists.  God Bless as you study His Creation!
