Is the World Running Down? - Reconstructionist Radio (Audiobook)

Christians unknowingly surrendered to a worldview of despair? In Is the World Running Down?, Gary North takes direct aim at one of the most subtle compromises within modern Christianity: the adoption of the humanist doctrine of entropy as the framework for understanding the universe and mankind’s future. For over a century, humanistic science has taught that the universe is doomed to either freeze in heat death or collapse back into chaos. Creation Science, while rejecting Darwinism, too often accepts this same assumption of inevitable decline. The result is a worldview that denies the power of Christ’s resurrection to transform history, culture, and even the created order itself. North exposes the consequences of this compromise: a Christianity stripped of hope, a social theory emptied of confidence, and a church vulnerable to New Age socialism. He challenges believers to abandon the illusion of “scientific common ground” with Darwinists and to embrace instead the biblical doctrine of cosmic redemption through Christ’s victory over death and decay. This book offers more than critique. It offers a manifesto of hope. By anchoring science, economics, and culture in the resurrection, North shows that entropy is not the final word. The curse is not ultimate. God’s covenant promises assure progress, dominion, and transformation in history. With sharp analysis and unflinching argument, North calls Christians to recover a faith that does not merely survive in the ruins of humanism, but rebuilds on the foundation of Christ’s triumph.
