George E. Ladd

George E. Ladd was a prominent Christian theologian known for his work on biblical prophecy and the relationship between the Bible and science. He emphasized a view called "progressive creation," suggesting that God's creative work occurred over a long period, allowing for scientific understanding of Earth's history. Ladd advocated for interpreting scripture carefully to avoid conflict with science, and he believed that biblical prophecy is central to understanding God's plan for the world. His teachings helped bridge theological beliefs with scientific perspectives, encouraging a respectful dialogue between faith and empirical knowledge.
