    Precise Blood

    While most would agree that our circulatory system is vital to life, many of us don't fully appreciate the almost miraculous workings of that system.Your heart pumps about one hundred thousand times every day. That means that your heart pumps the equivalent of 10 tons of blood every day or 80 million gallons in a lifetime. Your circulatory system brings that blood to every cell in your body through a capillary network that is so large that the combined capillaries of only four people, stretched end to end, would reach from the Earth to the moon!But your circulatory system involves quality as well as quantity. The chemistry of your blood is monitored and adjusted to within incredibly fine limits to keep it in precise balance second by second, day by day, year in, year out. For example, the acidity of your blood is adjusted constantly to within one part in a hundred million.Our circulation system cannot be simply “good enough” it has to work perfectly. So if mindless evolution created us, it had to make the whole system perfect the first time. There is no room for millions of years or for a poorer circulation system to be improved by mutations. Here the facts clearly support Scripture strongly indicating that we were created in finished form, not developed slowly by trial and error.Genesis 9:4"But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat."Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus Christ, You Who created blood and everything else took our human form and nature and shed Your blood on the cross for my salvation. Take my life and let it be one of continuous thanks to You. AmenImage: Human Heart and Circulatory System, Bryan Brandenburg, CC BY-SA 3.0, Wikimedia Commons.

    Was There Enough Room in the Ark?

    One of the common arguments used by skeptics against the biblical account of the flood claims that Noah’s Ark could not possibly have accommodated all the millions of species of animals.The first problem with this argument lies in the word “species.” Species is a modern human classification. Genesis says that Noah was sent “kinds.” The biblical “kind” includes many species. For example, the dog kind includes: foxes, fennecs, wolves, jackals, colishé, and coyote as well as the domestic dog. All these can interbreed and have fertile offspring, meaning that they were originally one mating pair. This applies to all species and drastically reduces the number of animals on the Ark to a more reasonable figure. That figure is further reduced when we realize that one-third of all species of animals live in the sea and had no need to be taken on the Ark.But let's not forget that the Ark was the largest ship ever built until the 1860’s. It had a capacity of one and a third million cubic feet - about equal to a train made up of 522 railroad stock cars! So when the facts are all considered, even a generous estimation of the space needed on the Ark tells us that there was room not only for Noah and his family and all the animals, but also for plenty of food.Genesis 6:14-15"Make thee an ark of gopherwood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt cover it within and without with pitch. And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: the length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits."Prayer: Dear Father, I ask that You would put to confusion all attempts to deny Your truth. Make Your people, including me, well armed with Your Word and how it applies to all parts of life. In Jesus' Name. Amen.Ref: Clifford Cunningham, “Noah’s ark couldn’t hold all 1.12 million species,” Record. Image: Ark, Noah, Flood, Roger Casco, Pixabay.

    Hydraulic Plants and Animals

    Hydraulics are part of our everyday lives. Fluids, such as the brake fluid used in your car, cannot be compressed so when you step on the brake pedal that fluid can be forced from a cylinder into the braking mechanisms attached to your wheels. All hydraulic machines work in a similar way because the fluid used will flow easily to areas where there is less pressure.Our Creator made great use of hydraulic principles in many of His creations. We have rigid bones and use fluid to expand and contract our muscles to bend and the stretch our legs. But the spider, for example, does not have a rigid skeleton so it uses muscles to bend its legs then pumps fluid into his leg to straighten it out.The North American Dwarf mistletoe builds up hydraulic pressure equal to that found in a truck tire in order to catapult its seeds out to a distance of almost 50 feet at a speed close to 60 miles per hour. The squirting cucumber found in the Mediterranean area uses the same principle to propel its seeds up to forty feet.Unless you think that the brake system in your car came together by chance and natural forces, it doesn't make any sense to believe that spiders and other plants and animals came about without a Designer and Creator.Job 15:8"Hast thou heard the secret of God? And dost thou withhold wisdom for thyself?"Prayer: Dear Lord, I am constantly amazed at the technical excellence of Your creation. I ask that more scientists would also be amazed, and draw the natural conclusion that You are God. From this realization, help them to be open to hearing what You have done for them and all of us through Your Son, Jesus Christ. In His Name.

    Disproving the Doubters

    Modern criticism of the Bible began in the late 1700’s and has continued to this day. The usual claim, often from Bible scholars, has been that the Bible is nothing more than error-filled human writings. Before serious excavation work had begun in the mid-1800’s, scholars felt free to consider lack of evidence as proof that people, cities, and even whole nations mentioned in the Bible never existed. It didn't seem to matter to them that they had never even bothered to look for the evidence.Soon, biblical archaeology started finding the evidences. And, with each discovery, the critics' pronouncements about errors in the Bible began to crumble. One example is the biblical record of Joshua's leadership of Israel in occupying the Promised Land. Joshua 11:10-11 reports how Joshua defeated Hazor, burning the city to the ground. All this had been dismissed by the doubters but then archaeologists found the ruins of Hazor. The ruins clearly showed destruction by an intense fire. The fire had been so hot that adobe had been baked lobster red, stones had been changed by the heat of the fire, and the ashes of the city were five feet deep!Every claim that there is error in the Bible has been based upon lack of knowledge. Let's face it, no matter what the subject, including history, God has more knowledge than we do!Joshua 11:10-11"And Joshua at that time turned back and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword; for Hazor formerly was the head of all those kingdoms. And they smote all the souls who were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was not any left to breathe; and he burned Hazor with fire."Prayer: Dear heavenly Father, I thank You for Your Word, which has been preserved for our instruction today. Guide me by Your Holy Spirit to make good use of Your Word in my daily life. In Jesus' Name. Amen.Image: Tel Hazor 1983, Bukvoed, CC BY 4.0, Wikimedia Commons.

    Doctors Use God's Invention

    For thousands of years, man has applied a huge variety of things to his skin to help injuries heal. By trial and error he has come up with ointments that keep injured skin moist to assist the natural healing process. Antibiotics were eventually added to these ointments. But until recently no one has been able to actually increase the rate at which skin naturally heals.That has now changed. Epidermal growth factor is one of the chemicals that God created to help keep the body in working order. Research has learned how to copy the chemical responsible and tests have shown that application of the man-made Epidermal growth factor can speed the rate at which wounds heal. Studies show that wounds on which epidermal growth factor is used heal about a day-and-a-half faster than normal. That might not seem like much, but when burn victims need many skin grafts, epidermal growth factor could mean the difference between life and death.With all his knowledge of the chemistry of biology, one would naturally assume that man should be able to develop better healing agents than mindless evolutionary processes. But of course, man is not emulating mindless evolutionary processes but the work of the Creator God Himself. The Creator of natural Epidermal growth factor had the original wisdom to design it and include it in our physiology.Job 10:10-12"Hast Thou not poured me out as milk, and curdled me like cheese? Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh, and hast protected me with bones and sinews. Thou hast granted me life and favor, and Thy visitation hath preserved my spirit."Prayer: Dear Lord, as I look around Your creation, I see so many ways in which Your knowledge and wisdom is so obviously practical. Help me to understand that all of Your wisdom, including what You tell me in Scripture, is really practical and useful for life. AmenRef: R.

    The Most Complex Structure in the Universe

    Whether you know it or not, you are the proud owner of the most complex arrangement of matter in the universe. I am speaking of your brain. Even though it weighs only three pounds, the brain's structure is so complex that it defies all explanation except to admit that a higher intelligence created it.The average brain has ten billion neurons and multiple billions of connections. It has been estimated that the brain is able to hold one million times more information than anyone could possibly learn in a lifetime. If true, this suggests that man was smarter in the past or meant to live much longer. Thanks to the brain, you can listen to someone talk and begin to put your reply together for him while your brain is also directing a number of other projects, like your heart beat, breathing, and blood chemistry without your conscious attention. Your brain, through its extended sensory system, allows your finger to feel a vibration of less than eight one-thousandths of an inch or see 10 million different colors.The brain is so marvelously complex that even scientists who deny the soul and believe that the material stuff is all that exists have admitted that the brain leads them to wonder if there is not more to reality. Some are now even willing to talk about a spiritual reality.Job 38:36"Who hath put wisdom in the inward parts, or who hath given understanding to the heart?"Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for the gift of my brain and all of the abilities it gives me. Help me to use my mind and all its powers to do Your will, and in this way love You and serve You with all my being. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

    Tetrakaidecahedron Skin

    Dr. David Menton is a biologist who believes that God created the heavens and the Earth in six days only some six thousand years ago. As he likes to point out, he is a biologist who evolutionists say cannot exist - a biologist who rejects evolution.But Dr. Menton's accomplishments make it hard for evolutionists to deny his right to be considered a top-notch scientist. Before completing his doctorate, David Menton worked as a dermatology researcher at the Mayo Clinic. After earning his doctorate, he worked as a research scientist at the University of Iowa, where he made a major discovery acknowledged by fellow scientists. Dr. Menton discovered that skin cells are 14-sided polygons called tetra-kai-deca-he-drons - sort of fun to say when you get the hang of it. He also discovered that these flat tetra-kai-deca-he-drons are stacked and interlocked like poker chips, one exactly on top of another. From this he learned that when skin cells reproduce too rapidly they do not stack as they should resulting in skin problems like psoriasis. No, there can be no question that Dr. Menton is a qualified biologist.We wouldn't want you to think that Dr. Menton is the only scientist, or even the only biologist, who believes in creation as taught in the Bible. Thousands of qualified scientists believe in creation, despite what some evolutionists say.Job 10:8"Thine hands have made me and fashioned me together round about; yet Thou dost destroy me."Prayer: Dear Father, I give thanks to You for all of the Bible-believing scientists who are working today. Protect them and give them boldness to witness Your truth. I also ask that You would give more of our Bible-believing young people the desire and strength to go into science professions. In Jesus' Name. Amen.Ref: John M. McGuire, “On The Side Of The Angels” Post-Dispatch.  To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1232/29?v=20251111

    Research Surprises Scientists with Bible's Answer

    Parents today are under a lot of pressure to be more “permissive” and less “authoritative” in raising their children. Research has now shown the results of this progressive thinking.In a study of 124 youngsters conducted over a twelve-year period, researchers studied parenting styles and the effect of each style on the development of young people. Researchers divided the parenting styles they saw into categories ranging from parents who didn't seem to care to those who were extremely demanding and restrictive while offering their children little emotional support. They found that parents who consistently set down clear standards of conduct and clearly-defined limits, while offering close emotional support, produce teenagers who fared better in academic tests, are emotionally more stable, and are much less likely to be involved with alcohol or drugs than any other group. The so-called “democratic” parenting style, they noted, produced far more heavy drug users than parents who set limits. They also noted that restrictive parents who offer little emotional support for their children tend to produce teens, who, while not heavily involved with drugs, are less happy with life and fall below average on academic tests.Researchers concluded that the limit-setting, rule-enforcing parents, who offer strong emotional support to their children are the most successful parents. And this is exactly the style of parenting Scripture teaches us.Ephesians 6:1"Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right."Prayer: Dear Father, I ask that You would provide good support and instructions through fellow believers for Christian parents so that fathers would seek to be toward their children as You are toward us. In Jesus' Name. Amen.Ref: B.
