In the debate over how the universe began, the battle lines are clear. And regardless of which side you’re on, there are important questions that relatively few in either camp have bothered to ask, much less answer. Questions like:

• Why is the issue of origins so universally controversial?
• How can creationists support biblical claims that so obviously seem to contradict modern science?
• Whose side of the argument does scientific evidence support?
• What roles should science and the Bible play in a person’s beliefs about the physical universe?

With the curiosity of a student and the precision of a veteran Bible teacher, John MacArthur goes to the heart of the battle in his study The Battle for the Beginning. An in-depth examination of Genesis chapter 1, The Battle for the Beginning takes you on an instructive, fascinating journey into the Bible’s own claims about creation, evolution, and the vital issues at stake.
