- catalog description "4. Man's ancestry as seen by natural science -- Scientific research is still progressing. Yet fossil remains and discoveries point more and more clearly to a line of ascent which passes through mammals by way of the primates, apes, and hominids to homo sapiens -- 5. The place of man in the organic world -- The world of organic life has unfolded in 1500 million years from a common root to the rich abundance of its forms. In a process of evolution determined not by chance but by planning, man is the apex. The heredity of the individual creature is determined by: 1. tendencies to wholeness directed to a specific type; 2. non-directed mutations; 3. natural selection".
- catalog description "II. The creation of the world according to the Bible -- 1. The creation of the universe -- In contrast to the assumption by natural science of a primeval state which cannot be further explained, the Bible presupposes the creation of the universe from nothing by the divine Word of power, i.e., the taking of the temporal polar world out of the supra-temporal supra-polar space -- All created beings thus exist within the realm of causal connexion and simultaneously within the supra-polar realm of the divine will -- 2. The creation of man -- Man was created in biological causal connexion with the organic world -- His special position in and over it rests not on special physical or mental capacities, but on his possession of the divine image. By a sovereign act God chose and called him out of the rest of the creation to personal fellowship with himself and to a share in the dominion of the world (history of salvation). This calling is not a causal determination".

- catalog description "Part 1 The origin of the world -- I. The scientific view of the world -- 1. The size of the universe -- The universe is not, as has been assumed since Giordano Bruno, infinite and absolutely limitless. According to non Euclidean geometry and the theory of relativity, it is indeed without limits; but it is self-contained and turns in upon itself and so is finite, spatially measurable and capable of being weighed -- 2. The origin of our planetary system -- Natural science traces our planetary system in physical and astronomical hypotheses back to the evolution of a primordial state in the form of a gaseous nebula in which all the potentialities of further evolution were contained -- 3. The origin of the universe -- The universe which contains the same substances as our planetary system originated like it from a gaseous nebula, 10,000 million years ago according to calculations by radioactivity. The same starting-point is indicated by the diameter of the universe which expands continually with the velocity of light and which today amounts to 10,000 million light years, in a primitive explosion at the starting-point of zero the universe came into existence and began its evolution".
- catalog description "Part II The future of the world -- I. The future of the world as foreseen by natural science -- Physical (law of entropy) and astronomical (law of radiation) research foresees a total annihilation of life as the prospect in the spatially enclosed universe, which will take place after about 50 million years in the form of ice-death or heat-death -- II. The future of the world in the light of the gospel of the resurrection -- 1. The world as God's fallen creation -- The present form of the world is a creation of God which has fallen from the original state of paradise. The discordances which prevail in it are rooted in the polar conditions of the realm of objectivity and the realm of the "we" (ego) and of the realm of the past and present. They can only be cancelled in the supra-polar ground form of a new creation -- 2. The prehistory of the New Testament Easter faith -- The hope of the new testament church is the gift of God and it waits for a new creation as already foreshadowed in the gradually unfolding vision of Jewish apocalyptic -- 3. The balance sheet of the present age of the world -- The present world as God's fallen creation is a transition stage of existence in the bondage of corruption. After the last judgment on the power hostile to God it will be restored from the polar to the supra-polar realm".
