Creation Museum

Doctrinal basis. Operated by Answers in Genesis and presents its Statement of Faith’s young-earth position.

Points to weigh

  • Answers in Genesis holds a young-earth, six-day, global-flood position and says that day-age and progressive-creation views are incompatible with Scripture. The standard scientific view dates the earth at about 4.5 billion years, which AiG rejects.
  • Position of reformededucation.org: Genesis 1 describes six ordinary days of creation, and reading it any other way misses the point of the passage. The Westminster Confession says God made the world ‘in the space of six days’ (IV.1). Be aware that the PCA’s 2000 and the OPC’s 2004 study reports on creation allowed a range of views within those churches.
  • Not confessionally Reformed: AiG describes itself as nondenominational.
  • A physical attraction: check dates, hours and admission on its site before a visit.
