The Serpent Within the Beast: Unveiling Satan As Evolution's Missing Link

By S. Col�n

How many times have you heard incomplete facts explaining why the dinosaurs and prehistoric man walked on the earth? Have these theories given by man left you more confused and unsure of what the truth really is? First Corinthians 14:33 tells us, gFor God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.h Who is really behind the mystery of evolution that leaves you confused and unsure of what to believe? Job 41:32 warns of Satanfs deception as the mighty sea serpent, "He maketh a path to shine after him, one would think the deep to be hoary (to appear ancient or old)." The confusion of evolution comes from a spiritual power struggle between God, "the Creator", and Satan, "the counterfeiter" who is reaching for his own glory over the earth's inhabitance. John 8:44 says of Satan, "When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar, and the father of it." In all reality, why would God create the primary dinosaurs that cause doubt in Him and continues to rob Him of His glory of a perfect creation? As you read The Serpent Within The Beast, you will discover Satanfs hidden power to deceive mankind through the discovery of the giant prehistoric bones and fossils. Satan is the evil counterfeiter of the ways of God which dates back to before God created perfect flesh on the earth. Through Satanfs powers to do great wonders, he said, gI will be like the Most High,h and attempted to exalt himself as a god. Now learn how, when, and why the earth struggles with evolutionfs past, as we journey through the Word of God to unveil Satanfs lies of deception. This book clearly provides a complete biblical explanation of why the dinosaurs and prehistoric man came into existence and of their destruction as it is written in Godfs Word.

Poems Page

Several years before I began writing this book, I had overcome a time period in my life of extreme heartache, difficulty, and spiritual darkness. Hope had found me through the love and counseling of my Lord and Savior who embraced me with His unconditional love and brought His reassurance into my burdened heart. I prayed in gratitude, If I had one gift, Lord, I would like to have the gift of writing inspirational poetry. To see now, how each poem has found its place in the writing of The Serpent Within the Beast, it is evidently clear that the gift of poetry I received through asking was only part of God’s plan for something bigger in my life.

Introduction

As I arise in the morning, not sure of what the day will bring, I will faithfully continue to work towards the finish line preplanned by my Savior. Psalms 19:7 says, "The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple."

Although this book has been very challenging, the Holy Spirit has overshadowed its difficulties through His hope and joy which has turned it into a most rewarding experience during my many hours of studying. My life was consumed with concerns that were reassured by answered prayers of what God’s plan was when He called upon my heart to begin searching for the truth about evolution. God’s calling to study and write was something that I saw to be much bigger than my own capabilities to do! Every excuse I made, which included, You must have called the wrong person, was overturned by the Holy Spirit that left me with no choice but to pursue His calling.

The study of God’s Word has brought assurance to my life that will continue to bless my soul until the day I see my Lord and Savior in His Holy Place. A heavenly place prepared of many mansions for all that have received Christ and have trusted and believed in Him. Let’s face it; we all need hope for more than this crazy mixed up world. So why not repent of your sin and accept His prepaid reservation for eternity in the serenity of God’s paradise ? In John 14:2–3, Jesus said, "In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself, that where I am, there may ye be also." Beyond the blind-minded, hopeless theory of evolution, you will discover the truth in the reading of The Serpent Within the Beast. You will know and understand that there is a higher power! It is the unconditional love of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

God’s Warning to All Creation

(Philippians 2:9–11)

"Wherefore, God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God, the Father."

A spirit never dies; whether it is the spirit of angels, mankind, animals, or of ancient beasts, every knee shall bow at the name of Jesus.

Chapter 1

According to God’s Plan

Genesis 1:1 reads, In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. God is truly the Master of all Creation; and He is worthy of all praise, honor, and glory for what He has done. God is before the beginning, and all of creation is under God. Isaiah 43:10 reads, "Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen, that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am He; before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me."

God, being before all things, takes full credit for all that He has made by the spoken command of His perfection. Lucifer (known as Satan) was created within God’s perfect creation until sin was found in him, causing the evil principalities of this world to also fall under God. Colossians 1:16–17 says of God, For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, all things were created by Him, and for Him. And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.

Principalities are rulers other than God, such as Satan and his demonic spirits. There is a constant spiritual battle between the evil principalities of this world and God. We, too, wrestle against these principalities; therefore, God sent us His Son, Jesus Christ, to defeat all wicked spirits (Eph. 6:11–12). Through Jesus, the believer’s eyes are opened, as He enlightens us with His everlasting truth and wisdom. The evolutionists have denied God of His glory of creation by claiming that all living things evolved from previous ancestors that lived millions and millions of years ago. They believe that God did not create and does not restrain the habitation of the earth (Acts 17:24–26).

Some scientists, through the study of prehistoric anatomy of both man and beast, have formed their own theory of an evolution process which is completely opposite of the Word of God. Naturally, the discovery of these unusual bones has caused a lot of confusion. There is one master of confusion, and that is Satan himself. First Corinthians 14:33 reads, For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. Because of the scientists’ vain imaginations and views, they continue to change the truth of the Word of God into the Darwin Evolution Theory. The definition of the word evolution means the origination of living things by development from earlier forms, not by special creation. (Jer. 9:23-24)

Some of the first attempts to explain prehistoric life were made by Erasmus Darwin, an English physician, and Comte de Buffon, a French scientist, but were proven to be untrue. In the 1820s, Gideon Mantell, an English doctor, found in a quarry some unusual teeth and bones; and by 1841, Dr. Richard Owens, a famous British scientist, came alongside Mantell and created the word dinosaur when about nine types of these unusual kinds of reptiles were discovered. By 1859, Charles Darwin (the grandson of Erasmus Darwin) gave an updated explanation of the theory of evolution, but later studies also proved his reasons to be untrue. Evolution is based on incomplete facts that have caused a great deal of confusion which has continually attempted to rob God of His glory.

First Corinthians 1:27 reads, "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound (to bewilder) the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound (to astonish) the things which are mighty." Evidence proves that the dinosaurs and prehistoric men did exist for a period of time, and so did large wing birds and giant sea and land mammals. These strange creatures used by God as warning of His Judgment were destroyed, which left behind the remains of their destruction.

The prehistoric times have become a mystery to mankind from the day that the unusual giant teeth, bones, and fossils were uncovered, causing both confusion and doubts of the reliability of God’s Word. The Word of God never changes, and as biblically told, God will bring His final judgment upon all flesh of spirits that walked on the earth before and after His creation (Phil. 2:9–11). This will include the unveiling of the banished dinosaurs! Isaiah 46:9–10 reads, "Remember the former things of old; for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like Me. Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel (plan) shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure."

The Bible clearly tells us how God feels about the false views of the evolutionists and of the deceiving images that have been reconstructed from the remains of prehistoric man, birds, dinosaurs, and creeping things. Romans 1:21 says, "Because, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful, but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened." To deny God of His creation is as making the choice to put your life into the hand of Satan (the great deceiver of all mankind). God warns that He will give up those who exchanged His truth for a lie, and who chose to serve Satan, as the creature, and not Him, God, as the Creator. The Bible clearly warns that God will surrender them over to the lust of their own hearts! As the moral decline in our world attempts to deplete the need of Christ. We are now seeing increasing numbers of permissive lustful sexual behaviors such as adultery, multiple sex partners, and of men and women choosing to exchange the natural for the unnatural to engage in relationships of the same sex. God warns that these ways are not in accordance to His plan made for our lives as Romans 1:24–32 tells of Satan’s deception and of the punishment that waits those who choose to follow the lie.

Romans 1:22–25 warns, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things."

"Wherefore, God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever."

The world, with its higher means of technology, brings greater accomplishments as the scientists are highly empowered by computers that work beyond the human mind. All hi-tech devices achieved by mankind have been with God from the beginning. Why is a higher means of technology available today and not before? It is only because the world functions in accordance to the precise timing of God’s plan. Ecclesiastes 3:11 reads, "He hath made everything beautiful in its time; also He hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. The world was created in the highest order of technology beyond what any human mind could ever comprehend. The more intelligence that God allows mankind to have according to the timing of His plan, the more boastful and proud they become in their own wisdom. God warns all those that are proud in Jeremiah 50:31, Behold, I am against thee, O thou most proud, saith the Lord God of hosts; for thy day is come, the time that I will punish thee."

A handful of scientists are working around the world experimenting with different DNA to increase their ability to replicate human, animal, and prehistoric life from scratch, in the little-known field of wet artificial life. (www.str.org/article/does-"wet-artificial-

life"-prove-god-unnecessary#.VxeUloEpDqB)

In 2007, an Associated Press article claims that scientists are getting closer to creating living flesh and believed it to be possible within three to ten years. Some scientists are rising up in wisdom before God; and because of their partial knowledge, they are striving to prove by the works of their own hand that there is no God, and that the world evolved on its own over a long period of time. First Corinthians 3:18–20 reads, "Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this age, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, the Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain."

No one can be greater than the Almighty God of Creation, and no wisdom can exceed what He has done. Job 11:7–9 reads, "Canst thou by searching find out God? Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection? It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? Deeper than Sheol; what canst thou know? The measure of it is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea. It is God who determines the capabilities and wisdom of all mankind and brings the attempt of self-accomplishment to an end if it is not in accordance to the timing of His plan (Isa. 55:8–9). A good example is in the story of the tower of Babel, an ancient tower symbolizing man’s pride and rebellion, which was built in the days of Noah after the flood.

All people attempting to build the ancient tower in opposition to God’s divine rule were of one language. Much like today, men were cleverly seeking their own security in community life and culture, independent of God. Genesis 11:6–8 reads, "And the LORD said, Behold, the people are one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from there upon the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city." God struck at the main thing that bound man
