GLOWING REVIEWS AND COMMENTS BY READERS Added March 2015 I have a friend who works as a missionary in India, and he sent me

this report of the effect of "True Science..."

"True Science agrees with the Bible has helped to win yet another soul for The Lord ! A

friend in India in an important and influential position invited us to stay for a week in

March and I sent him a copy. His flabber was well & truly ghasted to find someone like

me, educated and cogent in expressing their doubts about The Party Line !

He now accepts that The Bible IS true and the rest is a natural sequitur. Next step ; baptism

for the whole family, him, his wife and a blessing for their soon-to-be born baby.

Thank you for your part in that; how many other authors have had the privilege of writing a

book that affects other people's eternal destiny ? "

September 2012- "Once again, may I say thank you for writing your book, 'True Science Agrees with the

Bible'. It is one of the most interesting, illuminating and inspiring books I have ever read."

Lady Hope; Relativity theory; Long-age theories; The barriers to mass publicity; Alice in

Wonderland; Scopes Trial, etc., etc.

ONE OF THE BEST SCIENTIFIC-CHRISTIAN BOOKS I HAVE EVER SEEN!

Amazing book, August 16, 2008

By M. Cato "Mike" (New Zealand) This book covers a wide range of scientific, and historical topics. Many times in reading

this book I exclaimed Wow! out loud. Cram packed with the most amazing information. If

you can't get this book on Amazon, try through the authors web site. This is a must

read. Much of what we know as 'science' from school and university is just profitable

propaganda. This book is an eye opener.

EMAIL RECEIVED 4 JULY 2004. "... For the record I am fairly convinced that the Earth is the centre of the universe, for a

variety of reasons, and I also happen to think that your book True Science Agrees With

The Bible is one of the best books that I have ever read. I am almost continuously re-

reading it. God bless you and yours,

Leigh Durham.

THE ENGLISH CURCHMAN 12/19 MARCH 1999 (by Davic C.C. Watson) ...don't be put off by the length of this one. If you have some interest in Apologetics you

will find it hard to put down.... With God's blessing this book will do for evangelicals what

Professor Rendle Short's The Bible And Modern Research did for your reviewer in the

Page 2 of 3

1930's - clearing away doubts and difficulties. Make sure your Church gets a copy!

An American creationist lecturer was impressed by "True.." and specifically advertised

it at his meetings. He regularly sold out of copies on the first night and had to replenish it

for following meetings.

NATIONAL PRAYER NETWORK ".... Get it! It's a must!

From Rev. Dr. X - (April 2008) "Dear Mr. Bowden, A few years ago I read (and utterly adored) your True Science agrees

with the Bible, but have only just come across your excellent website...."

LETTER- "Dear Malcolm, First of all to tell you that I have been busy reading both Breakdowns are

good for you and True Science agrees with the Bible" both of which I got at the creation

conference. In between I have just read The Rise of the Evolution Fraud and I have found

all these books fascinating.... So I just want to thank you for writing these very refreshing

books.... I would also like to order your two booklets [on the medical profession and

international intrigue] .. In addition, I would like to order Science vs. Evolution....." Dr.

C.M.

AN EMAIL RECEIVED -

Dear Mr. Bowden,

Please first let me thank you and congratulate you for writing one of those books that

happens along at an uncannily perfect time. The content and scope of this book is

breathtaking. I told my wife that I wouldn't be needing to read another creation book for

quite some time. She thanks you also....

.... Please keep writing, and don't be discouraged if you don't sell a lot of copies. Of all the

books I've read this one reaches the precipice of truth and gives all of us who believe in the

inerrancy of Scripture the tools and fuel to reach the high places He calls us to.

May the God of our Lord Jesus Christ dwell in you richly

S.S. USA

……………………………

Greetings from France,

I have just finished reading "True Science Agrees with the Bible", and like Dr. Gish, I

found it "hard to put down". I have the distinct impression that your motivation for writing

the book had nothing to do with seeking popularity or adulation, but I do want to just take

the time to thank you for the countless hours of research and hard work that must have

gone into the writing of this fascinating book.

I finished many chapters with a deep feeling of "relief" - just one example is the chapter on

Geocentricity. I have often had a niggling difficulty at the back of my mind with several

verses, particularly in the Psalms, which would seem to indicate that the sun revolves

around the earth and not the other way around, and I had no satisfactory explanation for

that. To discover that there is extra-biblical evidence in support of this is a great relief to

me. I won't keep you any longer other than to say again, thanks for all the hard work. The

book has given my wife and I much to think about. Keep up the good work!

Blessings,

S.B.

ADDENDUMS TO THE ORIGINAL TEXT The following information has been found after the printing of the book.

[1] In the chapter “Early British Christianity”, on page 124.6, Brutus was joined by Corineus in Spain. In

the Daily Telegraph 30 June 2012 p11 it noted “Ancient DNA shows the British were Spaniards”. It

begins “The oldest DNA recovered shows that our English ancestors came from Spain according to

scientists.”

This is surely yet another confirmation of the accuracy of these old records that have been wilfully

dismissed by anti-Christian historians for generations.

[2] Shankland’s collusion with Einstein in destroying the work of Dayton C. Miller is given on p.520-521.

Shankland should be added to the index under “Shakespear” on page 521.

May 2016 - Publishing as an e-bookIn view of the high praise that readers have kindly expressed

regarding the wide ranging contents of this book and the inclusion ofmany subjects not covered in other creation books, it was felt that toensure the availability of the information in the book when printed stockshave been exhausted, the full contents should be converted to .pdf andpublished as an E-book. The page numbers and index remain basically thesame as in the original book.

This has allowed some minor corrections to be made and a shortreview of the hostile reception by holders of the theory of Relativity toMiller's results has been added on page 521.

DEDICATION

to Barry Setterfield

Barry Setterfield has laboured long and hard in several areas ofimportance to Christians, in matters doctrinal, theological, geological,astronomical and others. But this dedication is for his original pioneeringwork in the decrease in the speed of light. For this, he has had littlerecognition of his wide scientific abilities, his industry and input, and thisbook attempts, in some small measure, to correct this situation.

VIDEOSIn addition, the author has made a number of videos on several

subjects, mainly creation, geocentricity and True Biblical Counselling.The full list can be seen on his website -

Go to www.mbowden.info - go to the indexx page and the list is nearthe bottom of that page.

Alternatively, go into YouTube and in the "Search" enter "MalcolmBowden" when links to all videos will be listed.

Foreword

The book True Science Agrees with the Bible by Malcolm Bowden isanother of his thoroughly researched, highly readable books on the vitallyimportant subject of the Bible and science. When I started to read it, Ifound it hard to put down since he has included so many fascinating andimportant subjects in his book, many of which are not discussed in otherworks.

As the reader will discover, Bowden covers a wide range of material,including a survey of Genesis, archaeological discoveries, the age of theearth, early British Christianity and the founding of Britain, and a critiqueof Einstein’s theories of relativity, just to name a few. Bowden’s positionon a few subjects may be controversial, but he provides a careful,thorough defense of his acceptance or rejection of the subject in question.

This book contains a wealth of material that will be of interest toscientists, pastors, students, and the average layman. We owe a great debtof gratitude to Malcolm Bowden for the countless hours he has spent inresearching this material and assembling it in an enjoyable and easilyreadable form.
