Title: The True
Account of Adam & Eve
Author: Ken Ham

In today’s newspapers, have you
ever seen headlines that questioned the reality of Adam or Eve as real people? There are many skeptics in the world who
question everything and believe nothing without undeniable proof. Yet, one of the most profound proofs of God
is human beings. When I became a Christ
follower, I was schooled in the framework of various beliefs of how life
began. Today, many search in outer space
to try and locate other life forms. Many
refuse to believe what is right before their eyes here on earth. People today are quick to believe in so many
different viewpoints proposed by man without considering the reality of a
Creator.
What do you believe about creation,
the flood, sin, and other realities? How
do you tell what is truth and what is not? What is the measurement or standard you use to
tell truth from a lie? Here Ken Ham
offers in written form the answers asked by many for many years in an
intelligent manner. The premise of the
book is first of all to look at the Bible, first recognizing it to be the
absolute authority of our lives. We also
need to understand and believe that the Lord revealed His truth and through man
gave us His Word without error!
The book is more than just about
Adam and Eve. There is teaching on
creation including the meaning of the word “days” in Genesis chapter one and
two. We are reminded of how man was
created, God pronouncing “good” and ending with “very good” after
creating. One of the truths brought out
in this work is that we must start with the Bible and go back to it to see the truth. Much is shared in this book that is written
for easy reading or a conversation with anyone. It includes scripture references to continue
to help the Body defend the truth.
When I opened the book, my first
thought was how beautiful the drawings were.
I realize they don’t come close to the reality of Eden and more, but it
gives us a glimpse of the beauty that was there long before man came on the
scene. The book speaks straight forward
about sin and the consequences of sin.
Ken shares the hope of salvation that God gives us in Genesis 3 and
throughout the entire Bible.
It could be that some might think
this is a children’s book and dismiss it, but really it is a book that will
captivate readers of all ages. I can see
it being given as a gift to those who don’t yet know the Lord Jesus or
understand or see the beauty of God. All
mankind seeks to belong and to be loved. The Bible is the written roadmap of finding
what all hearts yearn for. I hope and
pray you will consider getting a copy as a gift for someone, for your home
library or to use in teaching. Thanks
goes out to the author for continuing to help equip the Body to be ready to
give a reason for the hope we have in Christ.
My rating is 5+ stars.
