Today (Thursday) has been a “sick day” for me – a heavy cold has settled in and all I could do was rest.  This meant the kids prepared dinner and then had the fun of watching a dvd while eating.  We have had a young children’s dvd on The Garden of Eden waiting for such a time.  My children kept finding errors with its presentation of the Bible though.

 

  • In the beginning there was God – but He was speaking out into a sky full of stars before He actually started making anything
  • As a whale jumped out of the water a myriad of other fish splashed out and fell back into the water – more fish appeared (this type of thing actually happened with two different days of Creation.)
  • It appeared as if animals were hunting other animals before the Fall.

 

It was a timely reminder that we need to be vigilant in the things that we bring into our home.  I was pleased that my older children were able to discern these things – though I am sure that some people would slight it off as just an artistic expression.  My younger children though will only come to a place of discernment themselves when they are given clear, constant, true messages.

 

Timely also that next week we were planning to do some Creation Science with Nomi and Daniel!
