No Hand Holding in Islam!

Hello Friends,

This past fall when Dana and I were on the temple mount, we were told we couldn't hold hands.

Why? The Muslims didn't tell us why.

Could the reason be that they are so much into hatred that they have problems showing affection to their 4 wives??????

Get thee behind me, Satan!

Hello Students,

Please remember we need to be careful. We must use the right Holy Bible, like the King James Version.

One of the reasons why:

“And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Luke 4:8 King James Version

“…Get thee behind me, Satan…” is edited by Satan in the New International Version, New American Standard Version, New Revised Standard Version, New Jerusalem Bible, New American Bible, American Standard Bible, New World Translation (Jehovah’s Witness), etc.

In Jesus,
Bruce

Amazing Ancient Manuscripts Confirm the Genesis Account of Creation

There are amazing discoveries in ancient manuscripts that confirm the teaching that God created the heavens and the earth and how He did it. The earliest of writings are the Sumerian cuneiform writings found in ancient Mesopotamia. There are classes a person can take to read the tablets. The language is known as Akkadian. It is so exciting to go back as far as the earliest written language and discover that they too have an account of Noah’s flood. It may not be word for word as in Genesis but the timing and the writings do not conflict. There is a lexicon that can be downloaded online for free if you are interested in doing some translation to read some of the ancient texts for your self. Although you could just skip it and read the English versions but then what would be the fun or challenge in that? http://www.sumerian.org/sumerian.pdf. You can just download it to your desk top. While though I may not agree with all the Genesis account written into the Epic of Gilgamesh. I do find it interesting. I don’t have to believe everything I read. I can as a rational being with intelligence though glean some important facts that validate Biblical experiences and add to my knowledge bank.

Personally, if a pastor cannot read at least the Greek New Testament from the original text or interpret it then he is not worth my time. I want to know more and more about the text in its original language. My opinion counts though where I am concerned and personally I vote with my feet when I feel my valuable time is being wasted. It takes a while to dress and do my hair and drive some place on a weeknight or Sunday. So in the words of the New Testament Writer….I want to make my calling and election sure. I am not going to rely on anyone else to tell me what I need to do to be saved. I want to make sure it lines up with the Bible and I want to read it for myself. I am not wasting my valuable time or life based on opinion. I need hard facts.

“ Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: 11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:10 & 11

Is Jesus, Jehovah? YES!

Hello Friends,

If one were to follow the verses given below one would hopefully receive the revelation that Jesus is Jehovah. Jehovah is coming in the beginning verses with phrases describing himself. Those same phrases are used in reference to Jesus proving they are one and the same.

King James Bible

“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8

“And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.” Revelation 21:6

“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 12 “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last (Is 44:6).” Revelation 22:12-13

“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” Revelation 22:20

The verses above are stating Jesus is coming as "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." As Jehovah is described.

“Thus saith the LORD (Jehovah) the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD (Jehovah) of hosts; I am the first, and I am ​the last; and beside me there is no God.” Isaiah 44:6

New World Translation

“I am the Al´pha and the O·me´ga,” says Jehovah God, “the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8

And he said to me: “They have come to pass! I am the Al´pha and the O·me´ga, the beginning and the end. To anyone thirsting I will give from the fountain of the water of life free. Revelation 21:6

Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to render to each one as his work is. 13 I am the Al´pha and the O·me´ga, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. Revelation 22:12-13

“He that bears witness of these things says, ‘Yes; I am coming quickly.’” “Amen! Come, Lord Jesus.” Revelation 22:20

“This is what Jehovah has said, the King of Israel and the Repurchaser of him, Jehovah of armies, ‘I am the first and I am the last, and besides me there is no God. Isaiah 44:6

Scientific Proof of the Scripture text that Two Become One Flesh!

This is a very informative video which gives scientific proof of what the word means in Genesis and Corinthians about One flesh. Watch it through and consider what it means.

(Gen 2:24 [KJV])
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

(1Cor 6:15 [KJV])
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

(1Cor 6:16 [KJV])
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

(1Cor 6:17 [KJV])
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

(1Cor 6:18 [KJV])
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

(1Cor 6:19 [KJV])
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

5 Ministries

“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;” Ephesians 4:11

“For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: ​14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even ​Christ:” Ephesians 4:12-15

The church of today must have apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers! Prophets and apostles are still for today! Last Sunday, an evangelist ministered in our church meeting. Dana and I are both pastor- teacher. In other words, Dana is called to be both a pastor and a teacher.

Reconstruction

Hello Students,

Having been raised as a Lutheran, then becoming a Baptist (Baptist Bible colleges and seminaries, Baptist pastor and Bible camp director), then becoming a Pentecostal, and finally an Apostolic, having experienced deception I am determined to be Biblical in all of my teachings!

Typically, man's teachings are not Biblically based. Most Apostolics have a solid foundation in soteriology, but from that point on they are basically Baptististic. Why?

My goal is to have Biblically based church meetings, Bible college and seminary classes, books, booklets, charts, sermons, etc.

This requires me to use the Bible and the Bible only to determine doctrine, church structure, attitudes, etc.

I must reconstruct most of what I have been taught to agree with Jesus' teachings.

What about you? Do you want to be totally Biblically based? What about those thoughts you have had about why you do what you do? Are you tired of dead worship meetings? Are you tired of having the same church meeting format from Sunday to Sunday? What will happen to you if you step out of the mold? Will your denomination excommunicate you?

Apostolic Tracts in Foreign Languages

Hello Friends,

Do you need tracts written in foreign languages?

Below is a link to Apostolic tracts.

There is a large problem with these tracts from the UPCI, they use Satan's perverted bibles. The only Bible available today that is acceptable is the King James Bible. All other so-called Bibles are perversions. Someday hopefully, real Christians will translate a New Testament based on Jesus' preserved Word. Until then, the King James Bible is the best!

http://www.globaltracts.com/

A thought would be to take the foreign language tract, then replace the perverted Scriptures with Jesus' best translation. If you would like to know which is the best in a certain language, please email me.

Klein's Year in Review

Hello Friends,

Looking back at 2010:

We traveled to Canada, Israel, and twice to Mexico.

We started a local New Testament church in Kaplan, Louisiana.

We ministered in many churches in the USA.

We did a lot of writing of Christian material.

Please pray for us as we serve Jesus Christ this coming year.

Your Past doesn’t have to Dictate Your Future!

These words sound good, but Biblically I can show you they are true.

Turn in your Bible to 2 Corinthians 5:1-18

1. Old things are passed away and all things are become new.

(Verse 16 says “henceforth” meaning from this time forward.)

2. We are now the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

3. He is no longer holding things that have been put under the blood against us.

4. How do we put things under the blood of Jesus?

a. You repent of your sins. True repentance is not just crocodile tears and sorrow because you were caught doing wrong. It is making an about face turn from sin and walking the other way. (Matthew 3:2, Matthew 3:8, Matthew 4:17, Acts 2:38, 2 Corinthians 7:9, 10, 11)

b. Water baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ is for the washing away of sin. If you haven’t been baptized Biblically, consider it. (Acts 2:38, Acts 2:41, Acts 16:15, Acts 22:16, 1 Peter 3:21)

c. The infilling of the Holy Spirit which gives us the resurrection power of Jesus Christ living on the inside of us also gives us power to:

1. Witness (Acts 1:8)

2. Overcome sin (1 John 5:4)

3. Be raised from death unto life with Jesus Christ (John 5:24, Romans 5:21, 2 Corinthians 2:16, 1 John 3:14, Romans 8:11)

Regardless of your current lifestyle or whatever things you have done in the past the Bible says that becoming a Christian according to what the Bible teaches is a brand new life.

‘Casting out Demons’

Some Christians teach Jesus spent 1/3 of His ministry casting out demons, another 1/3 of His ministry healing the sick and raising the dead and 1/3 of His ministry was teaching and preaching.

Is every Christian to be casting out demons? YES!

“And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;” Mark 16:17

The above verse is teaching that everyone who believes is to be casting out demons (devils). A sign following a true believer is his or her ability to cast out demons. Do you believe? Then why don’t you cast out demons?

Do you desire to know how to cast out demons?

Come to Acadian Lighthouse Church to receive training, so you too can cast out demons!

All Christians are to be Involved in the Healing Ministry

“And these signs shall follow them that believe; … they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” Mark 16:17-18

“Verily, verily, I (Jesus) say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” John 14:12

At Acadian Lighthouse Church, we take the Holy Bible literally! One of our members had a knee that was very painful. It had been very painful for along time. One of our members who has the Gifts of Healing laid hands on her, then Jesus Christ healed her. Today, she is walking around town without any pain in her knees! Thank you, Jesus!

All who come to Jesus get healed:

“..and healed all that were sick.” Matthew 8:16 (Matthew 15:30-31)

“..who (Jesus) went about … healing all..” Acts 10:38

“..any sick with divers diseases ... healed them.” Luke 4:40

Other Christians healed all:

“..they were healed every one.” (Saint Peter) Acts 5:16

“..others.. which had diseases.. came.. were healed.” (Saint Paul) Acts 28:9

“Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up;..” James 5:14-15

What is Life All About?

“And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me. 14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you? 15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.” Luke 12:12-15

Many people today are at odds with each other over things that will not matter when death comes knocking on their door. I like the old joke about a man meeting Peter at heaven’s gate carrying a huge suit case of gold. Peter had him open the suitcase and laughed at the contents. He then asked why in the world was a suitcase of road pavement so important? “The Bible speaks of streets of purest gold. Earthly treasures are not as important when you look at them in perspective. Let’s walk in divine precepts now. Treasure what is important. Treasure your family and friends. This is a new year and many are dieting. How about giving up things like resentment, guilt, unforgiveness and all the things that are spiritual weights this year? I promise you will feel better and look better.

Why Learn Biblical Greek?

Why are there over 100 English translations of the New Testament? Why are there so many English translations of the same Biblical Greek phrase? Which English translation is correct? The original preserved Majority Byzantine Greek Biblical manuscripts are correct. The Greek New Testament is the New Testament! All English Bibles are translations.

Some areas where the English Bible is not correctly translating the Greek Bible (NT manuscripts)
Verse	Word(s) from Translation	Right Word for Greek	Actual Greek Word
Matthew 28:1	“of the week”	Sabbath	σαββάτων
Mark 16:2	“of the week”	Sabbath	σαββάτων
Acts 20:7	“of the week”	Sabbath	σαββάτων
Acts 12:4	“Easter”	Passover	πασχα

By learning Biblical Greek, you can have a better understanding of what Jesus Christ is trying to say to you. He wants you to know the truth about the “Sabbath”. He wants you to know the truth about His love, etc. Greek is easy!

You are invited to attend the Biblical Greek course at Apostolic Theological Seminary and Bible College. Classes starts January 22. You may also take courses in Biblical Theology, Old Testament Survey, Spiritual Gifts, etc. Everyone can be a student!

Light for Your Path

Faith in Jesus Christ is part of the greatest inheritance you can give or receive.

I was preaching last Sunday about faith. As a child, I can still remember the faith of my Grandmother Anastazie Guidry Dartez. She had a framed print of Jesus Christ praying on his knees at a rock, hanging on her bedroom wall. I have searched for several years all over the internet and in different art and antique shops for that picture to no avail! I had mentioned it during the sermon.

Monday morning when I opened my front door to my surprise there sat a copy of it on my doorstep. I asked everyone who was at the church meeting; none of them had placed the framed picture by our door! The Lord told someone to come to my house and put it there. It was exactly the same print and just as old. I cried for an hour after finding that picture.

I am so thankful to Jesus Christ for my heritage. I grew up in a family that prays and believes Jesus is God and answers prayer. I am so grateful that the path to Jesus was laid out before me. I had a Mother and Grandmother who prayed daily.

The Apostle Paul spoke of such faith being passed down from one generation to another in the following passage: “When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.” 2 Timothy 1:5

Keep praying even though you don’t think the situation is changing. Jesus answers prayer. Keep pointing your children down the right path.

Which Bible Should You Use? King James Version vs. New International Version

If you have a book like the New International Version, New American Standard, Revised Standard Version, etc., please look-up these verses: Matthew 17:21 – Matthew 18:11 – Matthew 23:14 –Mark 7:16 – Mark 9:44 – Mark 9:46 – Mark 11:26 – Mark 15:28 – Luke 17:36 – Luke 23:17 – John 5:4– Acts 8:37 – Acts 15:34 – Acts 24:7 – Acts 28:29 – Roman 16:24

Who doesn’t want you to know the facts left out? Satan! He left out Words when he quoted God’s Words to Eve. He left out Words when he quoted God’s Words to Jesus in the wilderness. Satan continues to cause Words to be edited from Jesus’ Holy Bible. In the New Testament alone, there are 64,000 less Words in the New International Version than the King James Version!

“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Words shall not pass away.” Matthew 24:35

“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Words shall not pass away.” Mark 13:31

“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Words shall not pass away.” Luke 21:33

“But the Word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the Word which by gospel is preached unto you.” 1 Peter 1:25

“For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” 2 Corinthians 2:17

Majority Byzantine Greek Manuscripts vs. Minority Edited Gnostic Alexandrian Critical Greek Manuscripts

Majority Byzantine Greek Manuscripts – Greek NT for the King James Version More than 5,000 Greek manuscripts

Edited Minority Gnostic Alexandrian Critical Greek Manuscripts – Greek NT for the New International Version, and most new books. Less than 40 Greek manuscripts.

At Apostolic Theological Seminary and Bible College, we teach Biblical truth! We don’t have a denomination to please! Classes start January 22, 2011. Come to learn more truth and Biblical Greek.

Knowledge of the Word Changes Your Life

Col 3:10 And have put on the new [man], which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

In studying this scripture this morning I began to look at the Greek manuscript. In clarifying the text the word man is added but in reality the preceding scripture Col 3:9 refers to the word anthropos

Not lying to one another is mentioned also in Col 3:9

The definition of lying here is ψεῦδος pseudos

Pseudos means false. To give a false impression would also qualify as lying. Anything that is defined as pseudos means false or something that appears to be true and even has the appearance of truth but is indeed not the real thing when closely examined.

In Jesus Christ we no longer do and say the things we used to do before we came to Him.
How do we do this?

Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Yet we have to wonder how is my mind renewed? How can my mind be transformed? Is it done automatically? Lets look to the scripture for another text that has out answer:

First of all, we have to give some of our own effort or self will over to Jesus in this matter.
The Bible says to put off lying and anger. These are choice we make every day. We have the choice to sin or not to sin. Knowing the consequences of sin as a Christian we need to make the
Biblical choice. There is not excuse the Bible says we sin when we are drawn away by our own lusts.
James 1:15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: Prov 17:27; Eccl 5:2;
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein , he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

We have some things we need to put in order that we might match up to the life the Word is calling us to. Yes, the Holy Ghost changes us but we also have to give our will over to obey the will of the Lord.

Look at these scriptures Titus 3:2-5

2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. Phil 4:5;
3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.
4 But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,
5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Secondly, the scripture speaks of the Renewing of the Holy Ghost. We have given a new life by the Spirit of the Lord.

Here is what 2Peter chapter 1 has to say about it:

2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. I
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

What example does the Bible give of a servant who knows the Lord's will yet does not apply it to his life?
Luke 12:47-48

47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself , neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes .
48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes . For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

These are some things to think about today. I hope this helps you along your path of
living for Jesus Christ.

In Jesus,
Dana Klein

Light for Your Path

“But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall He come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” Micah 5:2

It is so amazing how such good things can come from small places. The name “Bethlehem” literally means , “House of Bread”. It is in this small place that Jesus Christ was born. The Lord kept this promise. This small town of Bethlehem was a pivotal point in history for God’s people.

The Prophet Isaiah wrote the following prophecy:

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6

We find in Matthew 1:21 the following words which fulfill Isaiah’s prophecy:

“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. 22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. 24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.” Matthew 1:21-25

Jesus is all the things Isaiah said He would be. He is the “child” promised. He is the “son” given. He is “wonderful.” He is our “Counsellor.” He is the “Mighty God.” He is the “Everlasting Father.” He is the “Prince of Peace.”

Wait as David the King Waited!

“And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.” 1 Samuel 16:1

“Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.” 1 Samuel 16:13

“David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.” 2 Samuel 5:4

David became king at the age of thirty, and he reigned forty years in all. David waited for Jehovah’s time for him to reign over Israel. David waited possibly thirteen to seventeen years for God’s Words to be fulfilled. During some of this period of waiting, David was fleeing from Saul who was determined to kill him. The point is David held to Jehovah’s promise patiently waiting his time as king. The Holy Bible doesn’t have him speaking about his kingship. David simply waited.

The application for Christians is to receive your personal promise by direct or indirect revelation then believe the promise will be fulfilled in Jesus’ time frame. If you have been told you will minister in Mexico, wait and stay committed to Jesus. He will fulfill his promise.

Biblical Theology vs. Systematic Theology

At Apostolic Theological Seminary and Bible College, we teach only Biblical Theology!

Why? What is the difference between Biblical theology and systematic theology?

Biblical Theology is based only on what the Bible teaches!

Systematic theology is based on the systematic theology of the denomination’s theology. Systematic theology searches for verses to support the denomination’s theology.

‘Biblical theology is not systematic theology or exegesis; nor is it merely a different arranging of the same material.’ Dr. Charles Ryrie, Biblical Theology of the New Testament, Pg. 9

Creation vs. Evilution (Evolution)

Are there any facts to support 'evilution', NO! Since there aren’t facts to support evolution, it is not even a theory; it is a hypothesis. ‘A hypothesis is an educated guess at how something will happen while a theory is a hypothesis that has been proven. Once you develop a hypothesis you can test it out in hopes that you can make a theory out of your guess.’ Ask.com

Progression of Man? Evilutionist's so-called ‘Proof’ There is not a missing link!
-------------------------------
Java Man - Man Based on an ape’s skull
Heidelberg Man - Based on a human jawbone
Nebraska Man - Based on a tooth of an extinct pig
Piltdown Man - Based on a jawbone of a modern ape - hoax
Ramapithecus - Based on bones identical to an orangutan (baboon)
Peking Man - No evidence
Neanderthal Man - Based on 100% modern man
Cro-magnon Man - Based on a skull with an equivalent in modern men
Lucy - Based on bone fragments of a chimpanzee
Modern Man - Based on a skull that has not evolved

Since nothing evolved, there must be a creator. That creator created you! Who is the creator? The Holy Bible says Jesus Christ is the creator, Ephesians 3:9, Colossians 1:16; Hebrews 1:2.
