Twenty years ago Daniel R. Williamson needed to understand the truth about God. Thus, he went on a methodical mission to put the puzzle together about creation both spirituality and scientifically. With his book God Uncovers Creation: Reconciling the Bible and Science, Mr. Williamson uncovers the answers both believers and non-believers alike desire to know about God’s creation and the Bible.
The backbone of his book is the intensive research of the Book of Genesis in the Bible. The author explains in vivid detail each process of each of the six days of creation from a Biblical standpoint. He then writes his scientifically proven facts to back up his conclusion that indeed the Bible is factual. He states each “creation day” was created with three sets of creative words; which manifested in evening, morning, and a seed in the form of light. He further explains, “…even the number of the antichrist’s name, which is 666, lends creditability to the hypothesis that it takes three “Let there be” statements to make a day.”
Another important message Mr. Williamson wrote is within his chapter Secret to Life, as we all have three significant powers. The first power available to us is the ability to choose what voice we will listen to. The second is the power to choose the subject matter of our imagination. The third power is the ability to influence others. Williamson believes that Eve’s actions in the Garden of Eden are a clear example of the three powers of mankind.
God Uncovers Creation reveals many topics which answer many important questions raised regarding evolution and creation. Such as: Why did the dragon in theBook of Revelation have seven heads? Why were earth’s living creatures created on day six? Will our planet and our universe be destroyed? How and why were certain ancient works accomplished? Daniel R. Williamson points out how questions that have often turned people away from God are easily answered when one looks at the Bible along with his scientific evidence with an open mind.
Mr. Williamson stated in his book there was a previous universe, and after this universe ends, another will follow. He also wrote that Satan’s number could be616 instead of 666. Contrary to popular religious beliefs of these two points, overall I feel Mr. Williamson is sincere with his conclusions. He provides tremendous proof in favor of God having created the world in six days and puts another “nail in the coffin” of Darwinism.
God Uncovers Creation is for everyone who wants a better perspective on how literal creationists see things. It is a refreshing, solid book -- both scientifically and theologically -- and provides scientific support enhancing the faith of those who already believe in creation while challenging those who don't to consider whether their belief makes sense.
