GOD'S GRAND DESIGN:
As the archaeologist proceeds with his "dig,"
he will readily identify pieces of pottery, tools, etc., as "man made." He will easily see in these things the evidence
of design and distinguish them from natural materials. Likewise, many features of our universe will convince
the unprejudiced mind of their inherent design. Consider the dance of honeybees directing others to new nectar sources.
Think of the gorgeous rings of Saturn---billions of bits of matter orbiting in such tidy formation. What about spiral
galaxies and binary stars? Don't these compel the open-minded person to admit God created? Microscopic bacteria have an actual
"rotary motor" that rotates their flagellum and propels them through liquid.
The genetic
coding material, or DNA, of all living cells, though microscopic, packs more information than five sets of encyclopedias.
The thymus gland in our immune system must produce a squad of "killer cells." Each and every squad
is specifically targeted against just one kind of the hundreds of millions of things that invade our bodies.
Perhaps the most persuasive evolutionist argument has been that of homology.
Similar structures, such as the arms of apes and man, are said to be homologous and to demand a common ancestor. Now, molecular
biologists know these structures are specified by different genes in different creatures. Thus the implication
is actually for a common designer, not a common ancestor.
The same is true in
embryology. High-tech photography inside the womb shows that development of the embryo is unique in each species. It does
not recapitulate (retrace) alleged evolutionary steps as has long been claimed by evolutionists. What a miracle the growing
process. All our parts grow together in such perfect harmony!
ENERGY AND THE LAW OF ENTROPY:
The laws of thermodynamics truly prove
special creation. These two, thoroughly proved laws of science are among the most fundamental physical laws
of the entire universe. In fact they are often simply called the First and Second Laws.
The First
Law says energy cannot be created nor destroyed.
The Second Law says whenever energy changes
forms, though no energy is lost, it becomes more random and less useful. When energy is used it loses its usefulness.
Consider a car for example. All the energy from the fuel ends
up warming up the atmosphere, but none of this energy can be recouped to do other things. None
of the energy is lost per the 1st Law, but all of the usefulness of that energy is lost
FOREVER!!!
The Universe is like one giant battery. All its
energy is stored up in chemical or nuclear bonds or in some other manner. There is no battery charger. So, anytime
we do something, we use up some of that stored energy, and the Cosmos is warmed up, and the usefulness of that bit of stored
energy is gone forever!
Since the cosmos does have available
energy, this MUST be a created universe, because the only explanation for the existing stored energy is that a Creator exists
who made the stored energy.
It is
important to see that the 2nd Law moves relentlessly contrary to DESIGN. It would move against anything
trying to evolve too. All things rot, rust, run down, get old, get disorganized.
Consider
an example of iron or steel. The Entropy, or disorder in the iron ore, must be reduced to make iron.
That is, energy PLUS deliberate intelligent engineering must be used to change the ore into iron. Other things are deliberately
added, like chromium, and or nickel to make steel.
But, the iron or steel (unless its stainless
steel) will automatically rust back into iron ore without any human action at all. Entropy, that is the 2nd Law, causes
everything to rust, rot, run down, get old, get disarranged, automatically.
This is why
evolution is disproved by the Laws of Thermodynamics. Evolution requires spontaneous progress opposite to these laws.
Mom puts leftovers in the frig with a cover on it, otherwise, oxygen in the air would cause the food to deteriorate, even
if it were not for bacteria. The lower temperature makes the spoiling process to go slower.
If you really study evolution, you will see that the experts require that the early time on this planet had
to have an oxygen free atmosphere, otherwise the organic molecules would be destroyed by the oxygen, the same as Mom's leftovers.
Or put another way, any physical system left to itself tends to move spontaneously toward ruin and disorganization.
That is, entropy increases. But, evolution requires the opposite of this, a spontaneous decrease in randomness
and an escalating complexity of life. This is impossible.
NO REAL FOSSIL EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION:
The fossil evidence confirms
creation. In 1859 when Darwin published his Origin of Species, there had not been enough fossils discovered to decide the
issue.
Today, the evidence is in, and it shows life burst forth suddenly in completed forms.
The so-called oldest sedimentary rocks, called Precambrian, while containing single cell microbial forms and micro-fossils,
show no actual trace of evolutionary ancestors to the complex multicellular invertebrates that explode onto the scene to mark
the "Cambrian" boundary.
Archaeopteryx, the alleged reptile-bird transition
is the most popular "transitional form" found in evolutionist-oriented textbooks. But, Sir Fred Hoyle, the prominent
British scientist, in his book Archaeopteryx the Primordial Bird, "a case of fossil forgery,"
says that someone took a small fossil, put cement on it, and pressed a modern feather into the cement to create a forgery.
The person then sold it to the British Museum for 36,000 gold marks, a hefty sum in 1861. The missing links are simply,
missing!
While may dispute some of this, what cannot be disputed is that the many
many transitional forms that should be found in the fossil record, were evolution true, are not found. Only
a handful are cited, and those are open to great debate. The missing links are, unquestionably, missing.
ELUSIVE MUTATION MECHANISM:
Evolution is a theory entirely lacking
of a credible mechanism. Natural selection cannot produce NEW genes; it can only select
from among preexisting genetic material. God, and blind chance, are the only two conceivable sources for genetic information.
Mutations are the only proposed mechanism whereby new genetic material becomes available for evolution.
The catch is, that rarely, if ever, is a mutation beneficial to an organism in its natural environment.
Almost all observable mutations are harmful; many are lethal. Through eighty years of radiation bombardment experiments with
fruit flies, involving 3000 consecutive generations, no clear genetic improvement has ever been observed despite the many
unnatural efforts to increase mutation rates.
Variations within the gene pool of a particular
kind of animal, yes, evolution of new kinds of animals, NO!
Evolution is a theory entirely without a believable mechanism. Many animal kinds have become extinct as shown
by the fossil record. NO animal has EVER been OBSERVED to evolve! Ever! So, mutations indicate genetic information
was just, plain, created by God.
STATISTICAL SIMULATIONS OF EVOLUTION:
The force of statistical probability mandates creation. Evolution totally fails under statistical "modeling." It turns out there are just not enough possible interactions
between particles in the history of the whole known universe to satisfy the infinitesimally remote odds. The odds of evolving
one living cell by chance are 1 in 10 to the 2000th power, but the whole known universe only contains 10
to the 80th power of atoms.
So evolution is the longest "long shot" one could
possibly bet on. The impossibly remote statistical odds are often obscured by the introduction of a bogus time frame---billions
of years. But, most dating methods show the Earth to be less than 10,000 years old. The mind-boggling impact of such immense
and phony time periods tends to obscure the insurmountable character of the odds that do exist regardless
of the time span.
Sir Fred Hoyle, a prominent British scientist said, "Imagine a tornado
sweeping through a junk yard, and as it passes on its way, there in its wake is a brand new Boeing 747 jumbo jet, which of
course, has been fashioned and assembled by random chance out of the junk in the yard."
So,
there is really no statistical chance at all living things evolving! I am God and there is none like me, declaring
the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying , My counsel shall stand, and I will
do all my pleasure; Book of Isaiah, chapter 46.
IN
LESS THAN 10,000 YEARS:
Almost all dating methods favor a young Earth. Evolution
requires billions of years to achieve even a ghost of a chance. And it is only that,
a ghost. Primordial Polonium Radio Halos: Tiny specks of Polonium 218,
a radioactive material encased in granite bedrock, have produced small spherical discolorations. Polonium 218 has a very short
"half-life" of only 3 minutes and becomes extinct in minutes.
BUT,
bedrock must be solid for polonium to make these tiny halos. Thus, trillions of tiny polonium radio halos
show that earth's bedrocks were miraculously created, probably instantly, or supernaturally cooled so quickly, these polonium
radio halos formed in the solid rock before these radioactive elements could become extinct.
Cooling Time of the Earth: A prominent geophysicist and his graduate students have computed
the earth's cooling time, from a molten state, at a maximum of 44 million years. This takes into account radioactivity. Evolutionists
claim, however, that dinosaurs lived 70 million years ago.
But, with Earth's bed rocks SOLID
to begin with, as the polonium halos indicate, the earth's cooling time would be at most, several million years. Remember,
this is an upper limit, it means the earth's age is less than this. It means the earth is vastly younger than the
billions of years evolutionary geologists claim.
Carbon-14
dating: The production rate of C-14 in the atmosphere exceeds the decay rate by about 30% When this non equilibrium data is
used instead of the unwarranted evolutionary assumption of equilibrium, computed dates of all the organic materials fall within
10,000 years.
If the atmosphere really were old, by now, these
two rates would be in equilibrium. Thus, the disparity in the two rates confirms a young atmosphere. Oil,
coal, natural gas, and other items evolutionists suppose are very old have been dated by C-14.
But, this should not be possible because this dating method is no good past about 50,000 years.
So, the ability to date coal, oil, etc., shows these materials are recent.
Magnetic field: Direct measurements of the earth's magnetic field over the past 140 years show a steady and rapid
decline in its strength. The half-life of the Earth's magnetic field is about 1400 years. This decay pattern is consistent
with the theoretical view that there is an electrical current inside the earth, which produces the magnetic field. If this
view were correct, then 25,000 years ago the electrical current would have been so large that the earth's structure could
not have survived the heat produced.
By the way, the sheer existence of the earth's magnetic
field is a miracle of creation. The surprisingly rapid decline in the earth's magnetic field, when compared to the maximum
possible, original, field strength, argues very strongly for a young earth. We assume, of course, that the magnetic field
was created at the same time as the earth itself.
Atmospheric
gases: Our atmosphere has less than 40,000 years worth of helium, based on just the production of helium from the decay of
uranium and thorium. (The decay of radioactive materials is the only natural source of Helium). There is no known way for
large amounts of helium to escape our atmosphere. Our atmosphere must be young.
Moon dust: If the moon were billions of years old, it should have accumulated extensive layers of space dust, possibly
a mile in thickness. Before instruments were placed on the moon, NASA scientists were very concerned our astronauts would
sink into a sea of dust. This did not happen; there is very little space dust on the moon. Conclusion: the moon must be young.
Decay of the Speed of Light: Two Australian scientists have
collected, from scientific articles, data indicating the speed of light has not been constant as most of us were taught, but
has really been decreasing. This seems to be confirmed by the words of earlier scientist. The speed of light may have been
ten million times faster at one time. Thus, the light from the most distant star may have arrived within seconds of when God
made the star.
These two men think the permeability and/or permittivity of
free space is changing and with it the speed of light. Since light is an atomic process, atomic run-rates would change and
this means radiometric dates must be recalculated.
A rock said to be 4 billion years
old, would really be just 6-7000 years old. Also, a National Bureau of Standards' scientist has shown that atomic
clocks are slowing down compared to the periods of orbiting celestial bodies.
Oil gushers: Abnormally high gas and oil well pressures within relatively
permeable rock imply these fluids were formed or encased less than 10,000 years ago. Otherwise, natural leakage would have
reduced their pressure to a level far below what it is today.
It must be realized that ALL dating methods involve unprovable assumptions. So
all Earth or Cosmos dates are philosophy, not science. The Bible, with its confirming archaeology and
fulfilled prophesies, and internal proof is, BY FAR, the most reliable source for the age of this world.
That is 6000-7000 years old.
C.I. Scofield, a Prominent
Bible scholar, from the early 1900s said, concerning the Bible: The Bible is a one book (though composed of 66 books). Seven great marks attest this unity.
“From Genesis the Bible bears witness to one God. Wherever He speaks or acts he is consistent with himself, and
with the total revelation concerning Him.
The Bible forms one continuous story --the story
of humanity in relation to God. The Bible hazards the most unlikely predictions concerning the future, and, when the centuries
have brought round the appointed time, records their fulfillment.
The Bible is a progressive
unfolding of truth. Nothing is told all at once, and once for all. The law is, “First the blade, then the
ear, after that the full grain.”
Without the possibility of collusion, often with
centuries between, one writer of Scripture takes up an earlier revelation, adds to it, lays down the pen, and in due time
another man moved by the Holy Spirit, and another, and another, add new details till the whole is complete.
From beginning to end the Bible testifies to one redemption.
The Bible has one
great theme--the Person and work of Christ. Finally, these writers, some forty in number, writing through twenty centuries,
have produced a perfect harmony of doctrine in progressive unfolding.
This is, to every
candid mind, the unanswerable proof of the divine inspiration of the Bible.”
Noah's great flood best explains geology: If sedimentary
rock layers formed over long ages, we should find tree roots and meteorites embedded in the layers.
We
don't find any! In some places many layers are bent smoothly without any cracks. This confirms that these layers were still
soft when bent. Dead bodies need rapid burial to form fossils; otherwise they rot or get eaten. Furthermore, sedimentary rocks
are cemented together by some cementing agent.
Calcium carbonate is a common agent, the same
one used in commercial cement. We all know concrete "sets up" rapidly. Thus, fossil bearing rock formations must
have been formed quite rapidly.
Many layers extend thousands of miles, some even covering most
of North America. The great Biblical, Genesis Flood, of Noah and the Ark, best explains these features.
SCRIPTURE SPECIFIES SPECIAL CREATION The Bible consistently states that GOD CREATED. This plain language leaves NO
possibility God sat by while the world evolved. The fulfillment of Bible prophesies in their appointed times proves that the
text in which they are embedded IS the true Word of God.
The Almighty Creator commands those
legions of atoms to show up in the right place at the right time turning Bible prophesies into history.
A fairy tale for grownups Dr. Louis Bounoure, a prominent Swiss scientist of
the past, said, "Evolution is a fairy tale - for grownups! The theory has helped nothing in the progress of science.
It is useless."
God's glory and greatness shine brightly in all He has made. We give
thanks for good things He has given.
The reason and need for redemption is the FALL of a perfect
creation. I CAN confirm Special Creation and the Genesis Flood by evidence, SO I CAN trust the parts of Scripture I CANNOT
directly verify.
GOD made every particle of our being. His rule IS JUST.
We must accept His offer of redemption and salvation
in Jesus Christ while time remains.
For God so Loved the World, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16.
For he made HIM to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God IN HIM. Second
Corinthians 5:21.
Jesus said, "Verily, Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born
again, he cannot see the kingdom of God....I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 3:3, 14:6.
Additional Thoughts:
Historically, it has been
the Western, Christian world that has given rise to the greatest scientific achievements. Why?.... God commanded Adam to "subdue"
and "have dominion over" the creation. It has been this creationist mindset, which has proved to be the scientifically
fertile one.
But, evolutionists claim creationism is just religion. But, this makes even less
sense when one considers that most of our branches of science were founded by creationists.
Many
of the world's most outstanding and productive scientists have been creationists Biblically and scientifically. Examples:
Isaac Newton, Johann Kepler, Blaise Pascal, Galileo, Michael Faraday Samuel Morse, George Washington Carver, Gregor Mendel,
and Louis Pasteur.
The
US Declaration of Independence:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are CREATED equal, that they are endowed by their CREATOR with
certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
Rights
are UNALIENABLE, only, because they are endowed by the Creator. Creation is the basis of the USA!
Can we really get TRUTH
from Science? Science is based on observation
and experimentation. But, scientists are always discovering something new they didn't know before, which forces them to overhaul
their theories.
Scientists never know how much they don't know.
They never have all the facts. You can only get the truth if you possess all the facts. Virtually all
scientists with Doctorate degrees have PhD degrees -- they are Doctors of Philosophy, not science!
"Observation" is step one of the Scientific Method. That means a researcher would have to "see"
it happen. Few researchers do, that is why most, so-called science is really philosophy.
Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and
for thy pleasure they are and were created.
Book of Revelation, 4:11.
