Ours is a world of violence, greed, sexual perversion, and a thousand other ills. The rebellious nature of fallen man is the fundamental cause of these woes. But the trigger that multiplied and exacerbated existing evils was the “scientific” heresy of Darwinism. An idea is mental dynamite and this new view of human origins motivated heads of nations, leaders of business, and teachers in schools and universities to act on the Darwinian assumptions that life is a violent struggle between competitors where only the fittest (the cruelest) can survive. Results included “legitimized” wars, oppression of the poor and helpless by the rich and powerful, racism, colonialism’s increased extortions, and crime. Darwinism also bewildered minds and broke hearts, for sin was no longer sin but only a relic of our animal natures. The most influential philosopher of the nineteenth century was fashioned by the reading of The Origin of Species. Nietzsche became the father of nihilism and violence (Superman). Kaiser Wilhelm, Mussolini, Hitler, and many other dictators absorbed Darwinism through Nietzsche. The speeches of Mussolini and Hitler resound with phrases from the Origin. The Holocaust is the most widely known result. Today there is a “youth bulge” in many nations, especially those belonging to Islam. As higher education becomes part of the cultures of all the world young people in particular discover that life has no meaning, and that the rule governing survival is one not hampered by morality. Those with tender natures who flee from violence against others often turn upon themselves in hopelessness and despair, and suicide rates among adolescents are forever rising higher. In recent decades the scientific evidence against Darwinism has blossomed. Multitudes of scientists of note now reject it. Sadly, most people are unaware of this. Among Christians, especially those of fundamentalist background, recent scientific progress in this area is frequently unknown. Theories have been devised to answer Darwinism that are often inaccurate, and revelation of their errors often leads to disillusionment among believers. Multitudes cling to evolution and always will because it is “the only game in town” for those who reject God. But the pillars of Darwinism—the competitive, violent struggle for existence, the “survival of the fittest,” the inheritance of acquired characteristics, the almost infinite number of intermediates (many links), fashioned by gradual, minute changes, the theory of gemmules, racism, etc.—have been shattered. While it is estimated that forty per cent of scientists in general believe in God, prayer, and morality, only about two per cent of those teaching in universities do. Universities are the hotbed of secularism and atheism, and it is here that young Christians enter a lion’s den of dangerous ideas without any intellectual and spiritual armor.

They saw no man but Jesus only.—Matthew 17:8 This book is Christ-centred, Cross-centred, and gospel-centred. It focuses on the fulfilment of a promise that God made well over three thousand years ago. God promised that one day he would dwell with us and walk with us, and he would be our God and we would be his people. That promise was fulfilled in Jesus, who was ‘God with us’. Jesus came to show us what God is like. He took our sins upon himself, and on the Cross he was judged and condemned for them so that we could be free of condemnation. That’s what God is like. Here in Jesus Only, there are gospel gems that you won’t find anywhere else—gems that will inspire you to praise God for his great love and wisdom

Jesus Only

This book answers the objections of unbelievers to the early chapters of Genesis and sets out in clear detail the scientific evidence that discredits the influential teaching of Charles Darwin. The everlasting gospel proclaimed in Scripture is central to this book, and readers will be challenged and edified by these pages. There is no other volume in print that covers so much ground, and yet it is easy reading."I believe in Heaven, nothing else makes sense of Earth."

Genesis Versus Darwinism: Abridged Version Especially for Adventists

To his commentary on Daniel, Dr. Ford has now added a detailed study of the Revelation to John, and it is a pleasure for me to write a few words in commendation of this work as I did for its predecessor. Since the exegesis of Revelation is a subject on which I myself have published some reflections, readers will know that not all the conclusions reached by Dr. Ford coincide with my own views. His confessional background is different from mine; to me, for example, the New Testament antitype of the sabbath is that divine rest into which "we who have believed" find entrance. His estimate of the historical and geographical reference of many of the details of Revelation differs from mine; to me the book is primarily intelligible in the light of the church's experience in the Roman Empire in the second half of the first century A.D. But, just because the visions of John were seen in that contemporary context, they have a permanent and universal relevance, especially for readers living in a situation not unlike that in which John and his first readers lived. And Dr. Ford's study deserves special commendation because of the clarity with which it brings out that permanent and universal relevance. He has read widely in exegetical literature, as the wealth of quotation in the following pages shows; yet throughout he has exercised his own judgment on the meaning of the text. Above all, the book of the Revelation emerges from his study as a powerful witness to the authentic biblical gospel. It is always a source of pride and joy for me to greet and commend the work of a former student, but when the work proclaims the faith of the gospel so eloquently as Dr. Ford's work does, the pride and joy are doubled.
