The Bible and Science

The Bible and Science
In the Gospel of John we read,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” John 3:16,17.
This is the sole purpose in Jesus coming to this earth. The whole Bible narrative centres around the salvation message. Centres around the way individuals get to heaven.
Sadly many Christians get sidetracked debating evolution and other scientific theories.  Something that is entirely unnecessary. Something that takes them away from the principle purpose of the Bible, how to get to heaven.
Galileo Galilei wisely said,
"The Bible shows the way to go to heaven, 
not the way the heavens go."
                                 Galileo Galilei.
For me it is enough to know that God created the heavens and the earth. Whether he did it in six twenty-four hour days or over billions of years is irrelevant. God is God and could have done things either way.
I feel as a Christian. A believer in Christ Jesus, it is imperative that I and all Christians stay if you will, on script. That we proclaim the message I noted above,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” John 3:16,17.
Please if you consider yourself a Christian. Think about it.
