The 12 C’s of History: The Biblical Worldview

[Editor’s note: I’ve published and spoken on the 12 C’s
for decades and I’m going to pool much of that information into a singular piece
on the subject here.]
For years, I’ve encouraged Christians to look at all matters
from a biblical viewpoint. However, I
had people tell me this was a difficult task for them.
At first, I assumed they just struggled with the engrained beliefs that they had been fed about “millions of years” and evolution. But I later realized this assumption was incorrect. My problem was that I falsely presumed Christians knew their Bible well enough to properly use it as their “lens” to look at various subjects.
In my past, even as an adult, I did not have a thorough
grasp on the Bible. And if people were anything like me, then they share in the
same struggles in thoroughly knowing the Bible from beginning to end. Ever
since the Bible was removed from the education system, people just don’t know
their Bible like they did in days gone by.
This doesn’t mean they don’t know some great passages…and
even have hosts of verses memorized. It doesn’t mean they don’t know some areas
of the Bible very well—the Gospel of Mark for instance. But it just seems the
entire thread of the Bible isn’t put together in a usable way for them to
evaluate all things.
I was never taught the Bible in state schools. For past
generations, people were consistently taught the Bible in subjects like
history, science, literature, and so on—so they had the basic framework of the Bible
as state schools were originally an outreach of the church. This goes back to
Robert Raikes in late 1700s and early 1800s in England.
Raikes started the Sunday School movement that grew into
weekly schools and it transformed societies for the good. This movement of
schools bled over to the States, Canada, and so on as well—similar but
different.
The government helped fund these Christian schools or even
help start them because of their good for society (governments were more “Christian-ized”
in those days working with the local church schools). But then the government
largely took them over as they were funding them; and then came the attacks to
remove the creation, prayer, Bible, theology, etc. from the classroom. By the
1960s, the Bible had been attacked enough so that it was finally ripped out of
schools.
Today, we live in the fruit of that removal and see the evil
fruits that secular education has become being a place to indoctrinate
kids with pagan beliefs, like evolution and homosexuality, through government
dictums (Luke 6:43-44[1]).
Consequently, I had to learn the Bible primarily from my local church or my own
study because state schools were no longer an option to learn the Scriptures.[2]
From church into my young adult life, I only knew the basic Bible
stories. I heard gospel sermons galore, but I didn’t truly grasp the biblical
foundation of the gospel, even though I was a believer. I had only read bits
and pieces in the Bible from various church activities like Bible studies,
youth programs, Sunday School, small groups, and so forth. But I never actually
read an entire book or letter in the Bible in one sitting—not even Jude or the
short letters of John!
That statement may sound strange since letters are generally
meant to be read as one unit in a single sitting. As an analogy, let’s say you
received a love letter from someone. Would you only read a few bits and pieces
here and there, studying it “a little here” and “a little there” (bit by bit),
over the next several years until you finally get through it? Not at all! Yet
far too often, this is how we read God’s love letters to us in the New
Testament.
The point here is I still didn’t know my Bible, even after
all that time. I needed to get a better understanding of the Bible to more
properly understand subjects like dinosaurs, history, science, philosophy, life
skills, Christian living, etc. Only then would I be in a more capable position
to truly understand any matter thrown my way within the context of Scripture.
So, as a simple fix when speaking, I prepared Christians
with a basic understanding of the Bible’s history of the earth and mankind
during my lectures. And this preparation allows Christians to apply a “big
picture” (biblical) framework. This preparation really helps with many subjects
that we want to look at within a biblical framework.
Basics Of A Biblical Worldview: The C’s Of History
Let’s start with a brief of the C’s of history. So what are the
C’s of history? They are simply milestones throughout Scripture. The first C is
Creation, at the beginning of the Bible and the last C is Consummation
at the end of the Bible.
Creation pioneer Dr. Gary Parker was really the one who
started looking at Genesis 1-11 with a “C” framework. For years, he would speak
and comment on the 4 C’s of Genesis 1-11. He had:
·
Creation
·
Corruption
·
Catastrophe
·
Confusion
This was a such a simple assessment of early Genesis and
brilliant by the way. Ken Ham and Dan Lietha expanded on these four C’s adding
in Christ, Cross, and Consummation. In other words, they wanted to add in the
Gospel of Christ and Cross—because it was logical to put the Gospel on
top of the foundation of the Gospel—which was Genesis 1-11. As
Christians, sharing the Good News should always be our goal (Matthew 28:18-20[3]).
Furthermore, it made sense to add what we look forward to
when we receive the Gospel of Jesus Christ (Consummation)—an eternity with the Lord
in a consummate, perfect, new heavens and new earth (often simply called “heaven”).
As a result, we get the 7 C’s of History.
·
Christ
·
Cross
·
Consummation
And then I came along. And a lot of people suggested there
was a big gap in between Confusion and Christ—more than 2,000 years by the way!
And…there is a lot of history in between these C’s—like a big “jump” from
Genesis 11 to Matthew 1 (New Testament).
I remember someone suggesting Covenant with Abraham as another
one. It got me thinking. So, I expanded them into the current 12 C’s of History
to fill in that big gap in the Old Testament. They are:
1.
Creation
2.
Corruption
3.
Catastrophe
4.
Confusion
5.
Covenant
(with Abraham, Isaac, Israel)
6.
Commandments
(with Moses the Conquest with Joshua as the onset of the Judges)
7.
Crown (when
the Israelites began their kingly line)
8.
Captivity
(when the Israelites went into Captivity and returned from it)
9.
Christ
10. Cross
11. Church (when we see the Church
instituted by Christ and exploding from Pentecost until today)
12. Consummation
(not yet)
Some have suggested Conquest with Joshua, which give another
C in the Old Testament and I’m okay with that (the 13 C’s of history!)
but I tend to combine Commandments and Conquest into the same C, because Moses
and Joshua were contemporaries and Moses prepared them for the Conquest. So, I
denoted this on the listing.
The Dozen C’s
Allow me to discuss these Twelve C’s in more detail.
1. Creation: God
created all things in six days and rested on the seventh (Genesis 1:1-2:3). These
days were normal-length, 24-hour, days (Exodus 20:11[4],
Exodus 31:15-17[5]).
And God called His perfect creation very good (Genesis 1:31[6], Deuteronomy
32:4[7]).
The creation was a world with no death, no bloodshed, and no suffering (e.g.,
Genesis 1:29-30[8]).
And since our Creator is a God of life (John 14:6[9]),
the creation truly was a world full of life.
2. Corruption: A
ruling God made man in His own image. Being a ruling God, He gave man something
to rule over—dominion over the world (Genesis 1:26-28[10]). But
when the first two people, Adam and Eve, sinned against our Holy God, they
committed high treason against Him (Genesis 3). The punishment for sin was both
physical and spiritual death (Genesis 2:16-17[11],
Romans 5:12[12],
1 Corinthians 2:14[13]).
God cursed the ground, cursed the animals, and sentenced mankind to the death
we deserve. But by God’s grace, He
sacrificed the first animals to cover Adam and Eve’s sin in Genesis 3:21[14],
showing the relationship between human sin and animal death (Hebrews 9:22[15]).
Animal sacrifices were required to cover sin until Jesus Christ, the final and
perfect sacrifice (Hebrews 10:10[16]),
was put to death on the cross.
3. Catastrophe:
Man’s sin nature was passed from Adam to all his descendants that increased in
sin (Romans 5:12[17]).
God promised a global Flood to destroy all life over the entire earth (Genesis
6:11-13[18]).
Noah, being found righteous by his faith (Genesis 6:8-9[19]),
was told to build an Ark for salvation from the Flood (Genesis 6:14-16[20]).
Noah did all that God commanded with godly fear (Genesis 6:22[21],
Hebrews 11:7[22])
and rescued representative land animals and his family from the Flood (Genesis
7:1-3[23]).
From these initial animals, on the Ark, descended all the land-dwelling and
air-breathing animals we have today (Genesis 7:21-23[24],
8:19[25]).
Although some rock layers have formed since then, most sedimentary
rock layers, all over the earth, is a testimony to this global Flood (Genesis
7:19-20).
4. Confusion: After
the Flood, God told man to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth (Genesis
9:1[26],
7[27]).
Man tried to defy God’s command when they came together to build a city with a tower
in an effort to not be scattered (Genesis 11:4-5[28]). So
then God confused their languages and forced them to scatter by their family
groups, introducing new language families (that continue to change) and
isolated family groups. This dispersion
event explains why people have distinct appearances in different parts of the
world. That is, different gene pools dominated in different areas—but there is
only one race of man—the human race, or Adam’s race. Meanwhile, animals were
dispersing around the globe before and during this event.
5. Covenant/Call of Abraham: God made a covenant with
Abraham and reiterated 3 times (Genesis 15-17) and then the child of promise
was born to Sarah in her old age—well beyond the age of child bearing. God called
Abraham to the land of Canaan that would be a possession for his descendants which
would be uncountable as the number as the stars in the sky (Genesis 15:5[29];
Hebrews 11:12[30]).
This covenant passed to Isaac, then Jacob and was finally confirmed when the Covenant
of the Law was given.
6. Commandments/Conquest: Moses was given the commandments
etched by God (Decalogue or The Ten Commandments) at Mt. Sinai, along with the rest
of the Law of God. Moses prepared the Israelites to judge the Canaanites for
their sin (Leviticus 18). Joshua along with Caleb and others set out to fulfill
the conquest which was not fully complete territorially until David (e.g., 2
Samuel 8:3[31]) and
Solomon’s day (2 Samuel and 1 Chronicles).
7. Crown: After years of God raising up judges, the Israelites
asked for a king to be like the other nations. However, what they really did
was rejected God as their king and replaced Him with a human king. God gave
them Saul through Samuel (40 years), then David (40 years), then Solomon (40
years), who built the Temple. After Solomon’s sacrifices to false pagan gods at
the end of his life, God split the kingdom from him. There were now two nations—Judah
(2 tribes) and Israel (10 tribes). Solomon’s son, Rehoboam, took the throne in
Judah. There was a long line of kings in both Judah and Israel but both finally
succumbed to their sin and their nations were judged by God. First, by word
through the many prophets like Elijah, Elisha, and Isaiah but then by power and
conquest as Israel was conquered by Assyria and Judah, later, by the Babylonians.
8. Captivity: The Israelites went into captivity to
Assyria. Judah held out longer, but after sinning like Israel, they too went
into captivity but by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians. This was the
days of Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Daniel, Obadiah, and Habakkuk. We remember Daniel
and the lion’s den, the fiery furnace, and finally the Persians taking power
over the Babylonians. Under the Persians, the Israelites were permitted to
return to the Holy Land and rebuild Jerusalem, it’s wall, and the Temple under
Nehemiah, Ezra, and Zerubbabel. But the Israelites remained under the grip of Persians,
then the Greeks, then Rome—just as Daniel prophesied until the last days.
9. Christ: As we
jump forward to the New Testament, we see the Creator God Himself take on flesh
to become a man (John 1:1-14, Colossians 1:15-20, Hebrews 1:1-13). He became
our relative, being a descendant of Mary (Luke 3:23-38), thus of Noah and Adam.
Is this too hard for an all-powerful God (Jeremiah 32:27[32])?
Not at all. Jesus, being the promised seed/offspring (Galatians 3:16[33]),
is the one to fulfill the messianic prophecies beginning in Genesis 3:15 (“seed/offspring
of the woman”). Jesus is called the Last
Adam because, as the first Adam led us into death, Christ saves us from
death (Romans 6:23[34],
1 Corinthians 15:45[35]).
10. Cross: Jesus Christ’s
death on the cross was sufficient to achieve salvation for guilty sinners. The punishment from an infinitely and eternally
powerful God (literally “the Almighty”, e.g., Deuteronomy 33:27[36],
Job 42:2[37],
Psalm 147:5[38])
is by extension, an infinite and eternal punishment (Daniel 12:2[39],
Matthew 25:46[40],
John 3:36[41]).
Animal sacrifices from Genesis 3:21[42]
through the Old Testament were not sufficient to satisfy God’s infinite wrath
on sin (Hebrews 10:4[43]).
They could only temporarily cover it until Jesus Christ, the perfect and
infinite Son of God Himself, was sacrificed on the cross, where the infinite
Son took the infinite punishment from the infinite Father, thus satisfying the
wrath of God (e.g., Isaiah 53, Ephesians 5:2[44],
Hebrews 9:26[45],
1 Peter 3:18[46],
1 John 4:10[47]).
By God’s grace and mercy, the blood of Christ makes salvation a free gift from
the Lord (Romans 5:9-15; Ephesians 2:4-9). Christ had the power to lay down His
life and the power to take it up again (John 10:18[48]).
11. Church: The church was instituted by Christ and
even mentioned in Matthew 18. The church is technically “the bride of Christ” (Ephesians
5:25-32, 2 Corinthians 11:2[49],
Revelation 19:7-9[50],
21:2[51])
and consists of those who repent and receive Jesus Christ as Lord—believing in
His death, burial and resurrection (Romans 10:9[52]).
Of course, this is predicated on the Christ of Scripture being God who took on the
flesh. A false Christ cannot save you, only the Christ of the Bible. The New Testament
gives extensive discussion on church function, governance, discipline, authority,
and worship.
12. Consummation:
Those who repent and put their faith in Christ look forward to a final
consummation (Revelation 21-22). There will be a new heavens and new earth that
are perfect where the curse from Genesis 3 has been removed (Revelation 22:3[53]).
There will be no more death, nor suffering, for the former things will have
passed away (Revelation 21:4[54]).
We will live eternally with God and enjoy His goodness for all eternity.
Unbelievers, those who did not repent of their sin and receive Christ’s death
and resurrection, will spend eternity in Hell (a place of eternal punishment),
where the wrath of God remains on them forever (Daniel 12:2[55],
Matthew 25:46[56],
John 3:36[57],
Romans 10:9[58]).
This brief summary of Christ and His creation from the Bible (the 12 C's of History) can be used as the foundation for the necessary framework to look at all matters
from the biblical perspective.

Luke 6:43-44 “For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear
good fruit. “For every tree is known by its own fruit. For [men] do not gather
figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. NKJV.
[2]
I tried reading my Bible too. But as a child from Western Illinois in the
1970’s and 1980’s with a dialect similar to what you would read in Mark Twain’s
Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, it was difficult to understand the late modern English
of my KJV Bible, let alone grasp deeper theology and historical understandings
as a child left alone.
[3]
Matthew 28:18-20 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has
been given to Me in heaven and on earth. “Go therefore and make disciples of
all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of
the Holy Spirit, “teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded
you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. NKJV.
[4]
Exodus 20:11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea,
and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed
the Sabbath day and hallowed it. NKJV.
[5]
Exodus 31:16-17 ‘Work shall be done for six days, but the seventh is the
Sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day, he
shall surely be put to death. ‘Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the
Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual
covenant. ‘It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel forever; for in
six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He
rested and was refreshed.’” NKJV.
[6]
Genesis 1:31 Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very
good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day. NKJV.

justice, A God of truth and without injustice; Righteous and upright is He.
NKJV.
[8]
Genesis 1:29-30 And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields
seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields
seed; to you it shall be for food. “Also, to every beast of the earth, to every
bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is
life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so. NKJV.

likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of
the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing
that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in His own image; in the image of
God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and
God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have
dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every
living thing that moves on the earth.” NKJV.
[11]
Genesis 1:16-17 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of
the garden you may freely eat; “but of the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely
die.” NKJV.
[12]
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death
through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned. NKJV.
[13]
1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the
Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because
they are spiritually discerned. NKJV.

body of Jesus Christ once for all. NKJV.

through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned. NKJV
[18]

with violence. So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all
flesh had corrupted their way on the earth. And God said to Noah, “The end of
all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through
them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. NKJV.
[19]
Genesis 6:8-9
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. This is
the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah
walked with God. NKJV.
[20]

cover it inside and outside with pitch. “And this is how you shall make it: The
length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and
its height thirty cubits. “You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall
finish it to a cubit from above; and set the door of the ark in its side. You
shall make it with lower, second, and third decks.
[21]

NKJV.
[22]

with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he
condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to
faith. NKJV.
[23]

household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this
generation. “You shall take with you seven each of every clean animal, a male
and his female; two each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female;
“also seven each of birds of the air, male and female, to keep the species
alive on the face of all the earth. NKJV.
[24]
Genesis 7:21-23 And all flesh died that moved on the earth: birds and cattle
and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.
All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the
dry land, died. So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the
ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were
destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark
remained alive. NKJV.
[25]
Genesis 8:19 Every animal, every creeping thing, every bird, and whatever
creeps on the earth, according to their families, went out of the ark. NKJV.

whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be
scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.” But the LORD came down to
see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. NKJV.
[29]
