Some Christians attempt to reconcile evolution with the Bible due to an unfounded concern that the Bible will not hold up to scientific scrutiny. This is an unwarranted fear. Concerning science and Scripture, while the Bible was not written as a science textbook, Christians should welcome the Bible being investigated through scientific endeavors such as archeology, geology, paleontology, etc. The Bible consistently holds up under such tests. It is now even recognized that the Bible correctly demonstrates pre-science knowledge throughout the science disciplines.
Historical passages are plainly evident from context.
There are no verifiable contradictions or historical mistakes in the Bible. Christianity is not based on blind faith, but faith in evidence . The Bible is trustworthy. Christians do not need to discount the Bible or to water down their faith by putting faith in the theory of evolution. Creation and evolution are competing worldviews that cannot be reconciled.
