Does the Bible teach science?
It is not a scientific textbook, nor was it written to teach science, but religion.
The discrepancies between the story of creation as given in the Bible and that given by the scientists are very much such as we should find in two descriptions of a great battle, if one of them was written by a clergyman who knew nothing of military tactics, and the other by a military expert who knew nothing of religion.
The important fact for us---the fact that is of more momentous interest than all the discovers of science--is that God made the universe.
For this knowledge we are not indebted to science, which has not yet attained it, but we do get it from the Bible.
A person who wants to know the latest discoveries of science as to geology and astronomy, should study the recent books of science; but if he wants to know the way to God and eternal happiness, he should go to the Bible. Each has its own sphere.
