In a simple answer, no. If evolution was the true origin of life, man is doomed. Religion is nothing more than a way to make life easier for a fleeting moment. There is no purpose, no reason, only display and frantic avoidance of death.
Jesus came to pay for our sin. He paid a debt he did not owe out of his voluntary love for us. He opened a path for us to be with our creator, forever. To live.
But if man evolved from lower life, we are truly nothing but an animal. The whole premise of the Bible is that man was created differently, originally perfect, in God's own image. We are not animals, we are man. But man sinned, voluntarily walked away from god, tried to be his own God, demanded to be master of his own destiny.
There is simply no logical way to reconcile the story of Genesis, original sin, perfection lost, and the need for a savior with evolution. Without a literal garden of eden, an Adam and eve as first man, original sin through a single act of rebellion, without these pillars of understanding... There is no savior.
What did Jesus save us from? If not the consequences one man's rebellion, our father Adam.
I urge you to run from any church authority that even tries to mix the evil of evolutionary thought with making history and meaning. It is impossible. Mixing man's thought with God's truth is dangerous disrespect to our creator. It destroys the foundation of truth and leads one down a path of gradual delusion. No.. Run.
There is no science that conflicts with Bible history. None. (another post). If the bible is true, all of it must be true. If any is unsure, all is untrue. There is no room for middle ground, compromise. Truth is absolute, real, singular.
Evolution is a replacement for God and the savior. Intelligent evolutionist even state so. Truth is one or the other. With evolution, there is nothing but a teacher of better ways, no saviour, no hope for the future. Only with seeing the truth behind the first 5 books of the Bible does one realize the need for a savior. All else is folly.
