Summary

Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Jason Lisle joins Todd for this episode of Wretched Radio. Segment 1 • Astronomy reveals God's design; astrology denies Him and is condemned in Scripture. • James Webb Telescope findings shock secularists—mature galaxies where none “should” exist. • Science confirms Scripture: the universe looks designed because it is. Segment 2 • Intelligent design without Christ still leaves you lost—salvation requires the gospel. • The universe’s perfect balance exposes the myth of cosmic randomness. • Creation confirms Scripture and calls us to bold, Christ-centered apologetics. Segment 3 • Denying Adam’s literal existence crumbles the foundation of sin, death, and redemption. • Genesis reads as real history—grammar, structure, and Jesus affirm it. • Evolutionary compromise leads to gospel confusion and theological collapse. Segment 4 • Old-earth views distort sin, death, and the atonement—Christ died physically because Adam’s sin was physical. • Popular theories (Day-Age, Gap Theory) conflict with Scripture and science. • Literal Genesis was the historic church view—until secular science shaped theology. ___ Thanks for listening!

1:01.7	Ritchin Radio begins in three, two, one. If it brings her to the same point that it brings you,
1:09.0	it doesn't matter whether she called it God along the way or not.
1:11.6	That understanding works for you, so therefore it is absolutely right for you.
1:15.5	All beliefs have become only relatively true.
1:18.9	And of course, to the world, religion is just some personalized experience, not a divine revelation.
1:25.9	And the church is catching the disease. It's time for Rretched Radio with
1:31.1	Todd Freel. Welcome in, welcome in to Ratchet Radio. I am Jimmy Hicks in the studio just momentarily,
