HOW DOES EVOLUTION MAKE “YOU FROM GOO”?

Posted on by

C.S. Lewis once put it, “Men became scientific because they expected Law in Nature, and they expected Law in Nature because they believed in a Legislator.” Christianity is a science-starter. God made us in His image to create as He creates.

The creation/evolution debate has continued unabated for a century. The US and, indeed, the world remain highly divided on the question of origins. The good news is that latest scientific discoveries like the electron microscope that revealed in even the simplest cells complex machinery and transport devices and then the discovery of DNA which is complex information that controls the complex machinery and transport devices in every cell. There is no way this could have evolved and the only source of complex information is intelligence of the highest order. The God who exists outside of the complex universe He created.

There is no mechanism to explain evolution, from “GOO to YOU”. Darwin’s natural selection won’t do it. It only selects from what is already there. The only other proposed mechanism – mutations, also won’t do it. Mutation loses information it does not add information. Moreover order does not come from chaos. God exists and even more important He loves us.

DNA DEBUNKS EVOLUTION

In this video, Dr Robert Carter explores how genetics supports a biblical timeline. The evidence is irrefutable and deserves to get wide distribution. Make sure you send it to family and friends.

DNA is supposedly millions of years old, but can it really survive that long? The evidence suggests otherwise. From genetic entropy showing species can’t survive endless mutations, to ancient DNA breaking down too quickly in the ground, to mitochondrial Eve and Y-chromosome Adam pointing to recent common ancestors — multiple lines of evidence challenge evolutionary timescales. DNA barcoding reveals another puzzle: species across the animal kingdom appear to be roughly the same age, as if some major event reset life on Earth.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND AND KNOW GOD?

“Thus says the Lord: “Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts, boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the Lord.” Jeremiah 9:23-24

The Bible uses the word Emunah for understands and knows – it means trust due to proven actions – faith demonstrated by works.

The most important thing that each of us needs to discover about God is that He loves us. So much that He was prepared to send His son Jesus to earth to die in our place, to pay the price for our sin and rebellion against Him. How good is that.

This happened for me at age 47 when I discovered at a Creation Conference that first of all that God exists. My stumbling block was that doing science at Sydney University I was taught evolution, so the big breakthrough came when I saw at the conference a video of Dr Dean Kenyon, who had been the professor of biochemistry at Stanford University and had written two evolutionary textbooks on biochemistry, now say that the discovery of DNA and the electron microscope had rung the death knell for evolution.

DNA is complex information that controls all the functions of living cells. Its only source is intelligent design. The electron microscope revealed complex manufacturing units and transport devices inside every living cell that are controlled by the DNA. It is impossible that this could have evolved it had to be created as a completed functioning unit on day one, by an intelligence beyond our comprehension, outside of the time, space, and material universe it created. I came away from that conference so annoyed with myself and even more so with the educational establishment that was teaching this garbage. The second thing I discovered at the conference was that Biblical history of a young universe was true. The worldwide flood of Noah’s day was an actual event that provides the evidence for the billions of dead things found buried in the rocks all over the world including fossil fuel from the buried vegetation. Evidence that the world says accumulated over billions of years. It was a simple step to take from discovering the Bible is God’s Word to us, that He loves us, and wants to be back in fellowship with us. It change my life forever. From managing large health care companies God had me purchase Christian Press and run it as Care & Share Products for 30 plus years. It is now owned and operated by my youngest son Scott who also happens to be the President of the Christian Booksellers Association in Australia.

ARTIFICIAL WOMBS AND SUPER HUMANS

Posted on by

The US company, Colossal, has successfully demonstrated the very complex process of germline editing on animals. It has successfully edited DNA to produce the expected traits that result from specific sequences of DNA. This same technology can also be used for humans, to make us stronger, smarter, have denser muscle tissue, have more focus, be void of any unwanted genetic mutations, make us resilient to forms of disease, etc.

He Jiankui, a Chinese scientist, conducted germline editing on embryos from parents who had HIV. He edited the DNA of the embryos to be resistant to HIV in a scientific experiment to see if the offspring could be protected from the disease. And while it appears to have worked, he crossed a line and served three years in prison for it.

So is it that much of a stretch to imagine – now that we have this incredible technology that we know works – that certain governments, using funding from NGOs, in private labs in countries with lax oversight, might be working with this technology? And that they might be trying to make “better, faster, stronger, smarter” scientists, athletes, and soldiers?

Also worth noting is that Colossal has also developed artificial womb technology for incubating and growing the technology, which will almost certainly be spun out into a new company. Of course, there are immediate implications for animal husbandry… but again, is it that much of a stretch to imagine that the end game isn’t artificial wombs for humans? Colossal has already spun out two companies: Form Bio, as a computational biology company, and Breaking, which is using genetic editing to create synthetic substances that can degrade plastics. These technologies that Colossal has been developing under the hood have nothing to do with de-extinction… But they have incredible implications for the future of genetic editing and what’s to come.

All of the above confirm Biblical end-time prophecies, which state that we are in a time of godlessness and lawlessness, just as it was in the days of Noah, before God’s wrath was poured out for the first time on planet earth.

“For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man (Jesus’ second coming). For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.” Matthew 24:37-39

The Coming of the Son of Man
“Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” Matthew 24:29-31

Only those people who have repented of rejecting God and His commandments and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour will be among the elect and avoid the wrath of God that will be poured out on earth with the prophesied Trumpet and Bowl Judgements (see Revelation 8 for the Seven Trumpet Judgements and Revelation 16 for the Seven Bowls of God’s Wrath).

What will your fate be? Will you be amongst the elect, the faithful, trusting God in all circumstances, or will you be among the many that face the wrath of God.

IT’S DNA DAY – DNA IS A COMPLEX LANGUAGE AND INFORMATION SYSTEM

Posted on by

March 6th was National DNA Day in the US because on this day in 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick (both atheists) discovered the helical structure of DNA, opening up countless new avenues of research into the complex instruction manual in each of your cells (DNA is a language system and it’s incredibly complex!). And what’s really exciting is that creation scientists are leading the way in new DNA research!

Watson and Crick thought their discovery would prove life wasn’t created—but research has shown the opposite, as DNA is a complex language and information system.

Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson, one of AIG’s research scientists, has published ground breaking research on the human genome—research that’s only possible because he starts with the biblical timescale of only thousands of years. It’s absolutely fascinating what he’s been able to unravel about human history from the “stamps” in the male-inherited DNA. (You can learn about that research in this article or more fully in this fascinating book).

In honour of National DNA Day, Dr. Jeanson released a short video featuring just a small fraction of his research. You can watch that here:

WHY JESUS NEEDS TO RETURN NOW

Posted on by

For the first time in human history, man can tamper with his DNA under the guise of advancing evolution. Man sees himself as the captain of his destiny, able to cure diseases, overcome human limitations, and even overcome death. Rather than live with the image of God which he has and receive the cure for his fallen state, man would prefer to pretend God does not exist and attempt his own cure. Even the difference between the sexes is no longer considered God-given.

Evolutionists believe they are rapidly advancing evolution by manipulating DNA. Once man corrupts his image with animals (chimera) and demons, which happened in Noah’s day, God will step in once again and pour out His wrath upon an unrepentant world. God’s Word reveals that this is exactly what will happen when God pours out His wrath with the Trumpet (Revelation 8) and Bowl (Revelation 16) judgments.

Satan’s plan may well include persuading or even forcing mankind to change its genetic make-up, forsaking the image of the one who created us. This may be what it means to take the “mark of the Beast”. Could technology allow Satan to produce a hybrid from his own seed as Genesis 3:15 predicts? Numerous reports that alien abductees had their seed harvested to create a hybrid alien/human race supports this hypothesis.

The transhumanism (posthumanism) movement is all about going beyond being human and evolving into superhumans. Thank goodness God has told us what He allows Satan to do in advance, so we can be prepared and get in step with what He has called us to do.

GENETIC ENGINEERING: THE GOOD AND THE BAD

Posted on by

Genetic engineering is being widely used in the foods we eat, medicine, and healthcare.

What is genetic engineering? It is the deliberate changing of an organism’s DNA, and there are many beneficial uses of genetic engineering to improve human life.

Dr. Carter provides a balanced view of the current and potential beneficial uses of genetic engineering, including growing new limbs.

FAILED PREDICTIONS OF EVOLUTION

Posted on by

Evolutionists often claim that they have made many successful predictions that show evolution is true. However, the many failed predictions prove the theory is without valid functionality. Random chance will not produce complex functioning organisms.

In this video, Dr. Don Batten covers five major failed predictions across cosmological, geological, and biological evolution.

Eminent scientists like Dr. Dean Kenyon (former Professor of Biochemistry at Stanford University and the author of two evolutionary biochemistry textbooks) said the discovery of DNA (complex information) and the electron microscope that revealed complex machines inside every living cell rang the “death knell” of evolution. You can hear his incredible testimony on Youtube: https://youtu.be/jrXf8KCJLMg.

EVOLUTION CAN’T EXPLAIN THE INCREDIBLE DNA-FOLDING MECHANISM DISCOVERED

Posted on by

The article is taken from CREATION MAGAZINE Vol 36, Issue 3, 2024

Biological cells are like tiny cities bustling with machines performing numerous tasks to keep cells alive. For decades, one class of these machines, SMCs (for Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes), have been known to fold DNA strands into intricate three-dimensional structures. This is crucial for the proper organization and function of the genome.

DNA

Insights gained from multiple studies have paved the way toward a step-by-step model of how these machines might extrude loops of DNA as part of this process. An SMC is like an arm with two hands at one end. Each hand holds either end of a stretch of DNA. One of these hands holds continuously while the other periodically ‘let go’ when the arm is bending, during which time the DNA loop becomes a little larger. The hand then re-grabs the DNA before the arm re-extends. In this way, SMCs can extrude longer and longer loops of DNA.

The conundrum for evolution: this machine, useless until fully functional, is needed for reproduction, so natural selection (differential reproduction) can’t explain it.

DNA DESTROYS EVOLUTION

Posted on by

DNA must have been created. It is impossible it evolved. It is the instruction code for all living things.

Science continues to reveal more complexity at the smallest levels of life. As a result, the evolutionary account of life’s origins is rapidly trending toward mythology. May God receive the glory for His incredible creation!

Moreover, Jesus Christ changed history from BC to AD. No other person in history has impacted the world as this God/man did. Jesus confirmed the Torah as God’s Word revealed to man by His prophets.

“Jesus said to him, if they do not hear Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be convinced if someone should rise from the dead.’” Luke 16:31

The Bible gives us an accurate history of this world. Creation by God in six days was a real event. The Fall of man was a real event that brought death into this world. The worldwide flood of Noah’s day that killed all mankind except eight people (God’s judgement on a world in rebellion against Him) was a real event. It buried millions of dead things all over the world, fossils and produced all the fossil fuels not billions of years. The world is just 6000 years old. God created the nations when He confused the languages at the Tower of Babel. Jesus entered history to provide a way back into a right relationship with our Heavenly Father. He paid the price for our rebellion, He died that we might live. The Bible also tells us that Jesus is returning soon to rule and reign for the last 1000 years before God destroys this Earth and creates a new Earth where only the righteous dwell.

“I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6

What a loving God (but also Holy God) that we have that He would send His ony Son to redeem us. And how good is Jesus, God’s Son that He would come to die in our place. God requires us to repent of our rebellion against Him and His commandments and accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour to come back into His family. It’s an offer of eternal life. It is beyond me why people do not want to get back into a right relationship with their Creator and experience this new eternal life in Christ. What about you?
