They do have a disclaimer on the bottom of the Sermon: Note
(a) [We do not know how remote the period of the creation of this globe may be—certainly many millions of years before the time of Adam. Our planet has passed through various stages of existence, and different kinds of creatures have lived on its surface, all of which have been fashioned by God. But before that era came, when man should be its principal tenant and monarch, the Creator gave up the world to confusion. He allowed the inward fires to burst up from beneath and melt all the solid matter, so that all kinds of substances were commingled in one vast mass of disorder; the only name you could give to the world then was, that it was a chaotic mass of matter; what it should be, you could not guess or define.] Bracketed text removed from the sermon. As brilliant as Spurgeon was, even he did not understand the age issue. –Editor **Please also note that this footnote was intended to be in the original posting, but was lost somehow in the transition of these files for web publication. Thanks to our astute readers for finding and reporting this error.
It's funny how AIG even bothered to post the sermon “The Power of the Holy Ghost." What is the official word from AIG; I wish I had more time to read all the comments on planetpreterist.
I have one more thing I want to say over at PlanetPreterist.com at some point if AiG continues to refuse to modify what they have done. This example sure shows the character of Answers in Genesis.

Jesse,
As far as AiG goes the other end of the line went dead. I don't think they want to talk about it anymore.
Here is an additional post by John Holzmann. It about sums things up.

I just heard downtown Whitehall is experiencing fires. How's the Education Station?
