Clover describes human nature as faulty even in the best of individuals. "The natural man cannot understand spiritual things [and] cannot understand, much less follow, the right way of life."<ref>''Evil Spirits,'' pp. 20–21</ref> Therefore, Scripture teaches the need of [[Jesus Christ]] as the Personal Savior to rescue man from his inclination to fall into sin.

Clover depicts evolution as "nothing more than a hypothesis" or "a guess." Though there Christian teachers who neither believe nor teach evolution as a fact, Clover said that pro-evolution textbooks work to the detriment of students.<ref>''Evil Spirits'', p. 26</ref>He continues: "... A careful study of evolution will reveal many unbridgeable gaps. Many assumptions and guesses with little concrete evidence ..." Clover maintains that life can be derived only from life: "The first life on earth came from a living Supernatural Being that we call God. Jesus was both God and man. ... we all know, beyond doubt, that had His teaching been followed, our world would be almost a heaven on earth. ... 'All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made.'"<ref>''Evil Spirits'', pp. 31–32</ref>

The British naturalist and evolutionist [[Julian Huxley]], who died the same year as Clover, summarized three choices regarding evolution: "Either it [life] was supernaturally created, or it was brought to the earth in the interior of a meteorite, or it was produced naturally out of less complicated substances." Huxley found the supernatural explanation of the origin of life "counter to the whole of our scientific knowledge." He hence determined that living substances come from the non-living."<ref>''Evil Spirits'', p. 26</ref>
