    The greatest percentage of non- believers rest among generation Z. as they like to call themselves. They need to be reached. Their strength and identity,
    comes from social media. They have been fed the theory of evolution and Gods non existence ideology from the breast. It is time to shake their world. Science
    is their religion, and cyber space, their spirituality .
    Before we can establish anything about life as to what is right and wrong: we must set the mind straight, the fact
    that there is a

    God must be in the forefront of the mind, everything will be considered futile otherwise. For right and wrong is
    measured by God!

    Many people ask: "Is there a God" or say "There is no God". To them: we as mankind hold a spirit ,
    it is because of that spirit that the thought of God exist. For the thought and debate over His existence would not
    be - if we have not a soul. The soul was given to us from the Infinite Creator Himself! Amazing! , for the answer is in the
    thought and debate. For neither would be if He was not, is not. However, they do because He is.

    For if there is not a God the thought of Him would not be. Not even the atheist could say- "There is no God" for
    the thought of Him would not be. So know, the thought and debate over His existence is the answer that He exist!

    For those who question and do not believe in what they can not touch and see; it must be scary to breath, for
    you can not see the air, it must be mind boggling to see a leaf roll down the way- after all it is moved by an unseen force. And
    who or what moves the wind? Do you know from with it comes and where it is held?

    After all, everything which moves is moved by something. You only need to know a little bit of the Laws of
    Physics to know this. The laws of physics tell us all things which move has a mover. It all started by something or someone from
    somewhere.
    All moving things are moved by something, whether seen or unseen. Newton's First Law of motion states: an
    object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. It may be seen as a
    statement about inertia, that objects will remain in their state of motion unless a force acts to change the motion. Any change in
    motion involves an acceleration, and then Newton's Second Law applies; in fact the first Law is a "special " case of the
    Second Law for which the net force is zero.

    Where am I going with this? You will see. Newton's First law contains implications about the fundamental sym-
    metry of the universe, in that a state of motion in a straight line must be as "natural" as being at rest. If an object is at rest in
    one frame of reference, it will appear to be moving in a straight line to an observer in a reference frame which is moving by
    the object. There is no way to say which reference is "special", so all constant velocity reference frames must be equiva-
    lent. All moving things are moved by something- whether seen or unseen. The First laws of motion were set by the Creator. All
    things extend out from Him. Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net
    force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional
    to the mass of the object, speaking to, the ever expanding universe in proportion to the Eternal God.

    All matter, sound and light extends out from Him. 1.Thus says the Lord, "heaven is My throne and the earth is my footstool.
    Where then is a house you could build for Me? And where is a place that I may rest?" 2. For My hand made all things, Thus all
    these things came into being", declares the Lord. (Isaiah 66:1-2)

    God has laws for everything in His creation; laws which govern the universe's planets, galaxies and moons and
    stars. And everything has a mathematical symmetry- like that demonstrated by the Fibonacci Sequence found in creation. Of
    course, named after the Italian mathematician (Leonard Pisano Bigollo) Nicknamed Fibonacci, that is his surname. His under-
    standing of this sequence points to an intelligent designer. Those of us who have probe and investigated all science through
    faith know, that intelligent designer, is God.

    Science has also presented its theories concerning the origin of all things. One theory is the Big Bang! This was
    the effect not the cause. That is the flaw in their theory. It was an effect of a brainstorm of God the cause. Therefore it was not
    the beginning,
    " I AM THE BEGINNING AND THE END" Says the Lord. It starts with Him and ends with Him. Cause and
    Effect. God thought He would be creative and express Himself. The Big Bang was a break through of the Word
    through thought.
    Thoughts are of energy not form, energy is the base of form and mass. You only need the basics of physics to
    know this. Physics tells us all things which move- has a mover. This explains the continuously expanding universe; it expands
    outward from God. Energy begets energy. All natural form derived from energy of the supernatural. Supernatural comes from
    the Latin supernaturalis- meaning:beyond nature. The adjective form of supernatural describes anything that pertains to or
    is caused by something that can not be explained by the laws of nature. How does man know this? It had to be revealed to
    him. All matter derived from the supernatural energy of God, who is Infinite.
    If we do not have an Infinite Creator; how then, can mankind develop things such as our number system which
    has infinite possibilities - or our mathematical system which has infinite combinations, or our infinite pi expres-
    sion and our binary code. Man would not be able to do this if not for an Eternal Source. Also, the infinite
    knowledge conveyed through the Alphabet: the beginning of language and words- which have infinite abilities in conveying thoughts.
    The most important thing the word can reveal is God! This was given to us through the soul. From twelve music notes re-
    ceived, infinite melodies and harmony.
    So, like God; an artist who creates from a thought and brings forth form and dimension through his vision of
    art- is bringing about form through thought. Again, thoughts are of energy not form. Energy is the base of form,
    and you can not see thoughts until they break forth. That is based upon fact not theory. For you can not see
    thoughts. All thoughts are supernatural, good or bad. Supernatural is the invisible realm. You do not see peo-
    ples thoughts floating around in the air. Science can not capture them or record what you are thinking by simply
    observing you.

    However, people with damaged wiring in the brain have had mind machines called (WIRED), connected to the

    language portion of the brain and a computer relays what the neurons are firing. It is providing wiring that does

    not work in the damaged vessel of the brain which may prevent a person from speaking normally.

    This proves our minds have energy flowing through them. This energy is the soul, which is contained in form. And the ex-
    pression of the internal energy is known through action.

    Now, poetically speaking- God thought He would be creative and express Himself; In the beginning was the
    Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. With His Word He created art. He created the sun,
    moon, and painted the stars in the sky, why?, to give form to His thoughts. He then created the earth with beau-
    tiful bodies of water, landscapes , mountains and trees, why?, to give you a vision of His dreams. He then cre-
    ated music and sound and placed birds, insects and all kinds of animals all around.
    He then cast His thoughts upon the ocean, and said "Let me create man in our like and image", for He did cre-
    ate Wisdom and angels before the universe. He said, " in man shall be my deepest devotion, greater than the
    depths of the oceans for He is the rolling tides of My emotions."
    From the earth and sand He formed man. "In Him I shall stand, I shall place in him My wisdom, My essence,

    My thoughts he shall know, My breath the soul he shall hold. My purpose shall be revealed in him." Then he
    gave man control of the land.

    However, through life spans and times man has wandered from God's side, only knowing the fruit of the eye,
    forgetting why we are here, creating darkness and living in fear, destroying all that God has placed here. We
    have lost respect for each other and disobey His laws given by His hand. For those who are unsure:
    Where do you stand in God's plan? Are you part of life or are you cut off? It is your God given right to choose
    but, to be a subtraction means you loose! Use the tools of faith and see, open your hearts, no longer be
    deceived. LIFE IS A GIFT NOT GIVEN IN VAIN. Believe in the promises of the Lord and He shall sustain
    you. For every word He speaks is truth!
    Truth is not what one makes it, or as one sees it, it is just so. It is irrefutable, undeniable, factually exact! It is
    real, perfectly sound and loved by those who seek it.

    There is only ONE GOD, He is revealed in three divine ways, God the FATHER, God the SON YESHUA
    HAMASHIACH (JESUS CHRIST) and the mutual love between them both the HOLY SPIRIT, from whom all
    knowledge and truth comes .

    Those born between mid 1990's- 2000-05. Some call them generation x. The point is they are young and well not thinking too hard about God.

    So I guess roughly 18-28?

    The generation I'm most concerned about is ages 12-17. This is the age many formulate their world view, and this is the age the world beings to thoroughly indoctrinate them in evolutionary thinking. Not sure what to call this generation, though. But they're the group I'd like the Church to focus on the most. They love the topic of Creationism, but very few get exposed to it. They should be designated as a mission target.

    Starting with my kids, absolutely. I've been able to reach some others as well. Huge burden. I'm tempted to approach my church, which is very mission active, and see if they'd be willing to make an actual age group a mission target. Imagine if all the 12-17 year olds in the world were exposed to creationism arguments?

    Imagine.............! I pray your call will be heard by those you are gifted to touch. I have kids of the same age range as you and younger. It is hard to combat this social media age. Their friends may not be on board with what you instill in your own. I am always weeding out their spirit through constant dialogue about the Lord
    Proverbs 22:6 New King James Version (NKJV)
    6 Train up a child in the way he should go,
    And when he is old he will not depart from it.

    The Greatest Commandment Deuteronomy 6:6-8
    …6"These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart. 7You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up. 8"You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontals on your forehead.…

    The times are so dark, I find myself praying for my family constantly. I will keep you and yours in prayer. God Bless!

    Yet there are some really good materials out there. Creationists are some of the hardest working people on earth.

    The above are more curricula-type material, for small group studies. The ICR and Ken Ham studies are both 12 sessions and can be combined into 1 fantastic 12 part study. We went through these with several families and everyone loved them, especially the kids.

    The CMI video "Achilles Heels" is more of a stand alone study, or can just be watched as a documentary, though we combined it with the above.

    Some others productions that are out there that all should see:

    The Atheist Delusion
    Ray Comfort

    Evolution Vs. God
    Ray Comfort

    Living Fossils
    Dr Carl Werner

    Is Genesis History?
    Del Tackett

    Genesis: Paradise Lost
    Eric Hovind

    Alien Intrusion: Unmasking a Deception
    Gary Bates (CMI)​

    So much stuff. I'm sure you could add.
