It is impossible to have a coherent, biblical worldview without an acceptance of the historical, grammatical understanding of the book of Genesis. This is the thesis of our tape series Back to Genesis. Taken from a composite of conferences featuring Douglas Phillips and Dr. John Morris of the Institute for Creation Research, this audiobook presents an uncompromising look at the book of beginnings and its influence on science, theology, and ethics. According to the authors, there is an important reason why the first eleven chapters of Genesis are so under attack today since every major doctrine of the Christian faith finds its origin and explanation ultimately in these chapters. Furthermore, the entire ethical foundation of Christian society is predicated on a literal understanding of Genesis, from the doctrine of marriage to the mandate for clothing. Even the great legal commentator, Sir William Blackstone, began his famous commentary on the laws of England by pointing out that Genesis was foundational to the very concepts of freedom and just law in a society. From Genesis, we understand notions of justice, mercy, property rights, and many other foundations of freedom. 9 CDs.
