Summary: God's Infallible Word Revealed Through Creation
Comment: This is one of John's most outstanding books. I had to re-read many chapters because of its detail and complexity. The book is precise and challenges, yet satisfies the intellect. As one who has always believed in a young earth designed solely by a master designer, I was moved many times to tears when reminded of the intricacy of our universe and all its living creatures. The book brought me to my knees on several occasions to give thanks and recognition to our Creator for providing us with "unquestionable" proof of His existence and soverignty. John's examples of God's infallible creation, from the smallest insect to intelligent man is awesome and brilliantly researched. I believe this book is imperative to equip Christians against an increasing attack by those mocking and discrediting the Genesis account of creation. I have referred it to other Christians and believe it should be required reading in Christian schools for science studies.

John continues to provide his readers and listeners with the ammunition we need to stand strong in our Christian faith and not give an inch to modern-day so-called Christians who find it easier to not be in conflict. I cannot express enough the impact this book has had on the way I look at the universe, which I have sometimes taken for granted.

Summary: A Literal Approach
Comment: John MacArthur wrote Battle For The Beginning primarily to address the world's origins from a Biblical viewpoint. The book is aimed at a Christian audience and is not so much a defense of creationism as it is a defense of a literal six-day creation. This is not a book that primarily focuses on convincing unbelieving evolutionists of creationism, but rather it focuses on convincing Christians who believe that in some form of evolution (such as old-earth creationism or the Gap Theory) that the only valid reading of Genesis one and two is a literal reading. MacArthur bases much of the book on the view that Evolution is itself a religion that is completely opposed to Christianity. Creationism and Evolution, therefore, can never be mixed. We must believe in either one or the other.

After giving many reasons why Evolutionism is antithetical to God and His design, the book spends a chapter on each of the days of creation. In each chapter the author shows why anything other than a literal six-day creation is impossible. In so doing he gives many wonderful examples of the wonders and marvels of creation. Much of the book is focused on refuting the arguments of Hugh Ross, the most prominent of the theistic evolutionists.

I would highly recommend this book to any believer that is struggling with the conflict between creationism and evolutionism. MacArthur's ability to accurately draw teaching from scripture and using God's word as the ultimate teaching tool makes this one of the best books I have read on the subject.
