There are dangerous aspects for the Christian to accept theistic evolution.
Misrepresentation of the nature of God
In the book of Genesis chapter one. God called his creation good. This is inconsistent with an old earth full of death, decay and destruction. We need think on this: how good is God's perfection if he declare death and decay is good.
Genesis 1:31
God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
In the book of Deuteronomy declares God's work are perfect.
Deuteronomy 32:4
He is the Rock, his works are perfect,
and all his ways are just.
A faithful God who does no wrong,
upright and just is he.
Psalm 19:1 declares that the heavens display the glory of God. If the stars evolved, then they do not show His glory, but long periods of natural process (Macro-evolution).
Psalm 19:1
The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
