Mark 2:22 (NIV2011)
22 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins.”
In ancient times for both the Jews and the pagans believed that change or innovation was not good. The problem with this is that Jesus and His followers wanted people to accept Jesus as the Messiah, as the Savior, as God, which meant a definite revolutionary change in their belief systems, both Jewish and pagan/philosophy.
Jesus used the parable of the wineskins to let people know that change can be necessary and good. What He is saying is, if you want to make new wine, you need to use new wineskins. The point is that when you are saved by accepting Jesus Christ as the Savior, you must also change your whole world view.
You cannot just add faith in Jesus as Savior to an Old Testament legalistic world view as too many people try to do even today. You cannot just add the fact that you believe in God to a philosophical world view as again too many people do today. Theism is not the issue. Jesus the Savior is.
“Does Evolution Diminish the Majesty of God?” Your question reveals that when you alter one aspect of your world view it impacts on other aspects. The YEC is a static worldview. God created the world in 6 days and then rested. If that is the way you perceive the majesty of God, then a dynamic understanding of the world seems to diminish God.
On the other hand if the world is dynamic, then may be God is too, and maybe the dynamic God is not only a truer view of world, but a stronger more magnificent understanding of God. In this respect the idea of a “slippery slope” that the opponents of evolution has some validity. Change does beget change. The question is whether it is good change or bad change. BioLogos backed by Jesus the Logos says that change to evolution is good change and I believe that a dynamic view of the world and life is Christian.
But there is another problem that evolution creates and has not been solved by science. The standard western world view is dualism of body and mind. Science deals with the body and philosophy with the mind. Theology deals with the spirit which seems to be folded into the mind, but really does not fit. Science has determined that determined that life forms do evolve, but has not determined a verifiable process by which this takes place, so evolution has failed this test of being a true dynamic scientific theory. Just saying or even proving that the life forms have evolved, does not make a theory.
To be a truly dynamic process evolution must bring together the physical, the rational, and the spiritual. Darwinism has been wedded to the view that evolution is non-rational conflict based process, which is the reason why it has failed in this area. Also of course science is wedded to the idea that evolution is without meaning or purpose. Evolutionary Creationism takes the other view which means that it has the best chance of coming up with a real true scientific understanding of evolution.
