106:(2020), Lamoureux presents evidence for an ancient scientific understanding in the Bible, which removes the need for what he calls scientific concordism, the attempt to match the Bible with modern science. Lamoureux teaches that since the ancient Jewish people believed - and revealed in their Scriptures - in ancient scientific concepts like the firmament, a three-tier universe, and a geocentric universe, to name a few, modern Christians should not try to align the Bible with science, thus freeing them to enjoy the splendors of modern science. Lamoureux argues that being freed from scientific concordism does not deny a devout reverence for Scripture. For example, he teaches that each time nature is used in Scripture, particularly in the Old Testament, it is simply the incidental circumstances used by the Holy Spirit to reveal inerrant spiritual truths. Lamoureux calls this the

Lamoureux argues that Intelligent Design should properly be understood as a religious (metaphysical) belief, not a scientific one. Therefore, he denies the claim by proponents of "Intelligent Design Theory" such as

that it is scientifically testable as a process distinct from evolution. Instead, Intelligent Design should be understood as fully consistent with the evolution of life by mutation and natural selection operating through natural processes, because these processes are ultimately controlled by God.

110:. Similarly, Lamoureux teaches that the Holy Spirit accommodates by coming down to the level of the ancient writers and readers, for they would not understand modern scientific concepts. The spiritual message is what was important. He calls this
