“The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth and from under these heavens.” (Jeremiah 10:11) I often find myself thinking about Jer.10:11 as I consider the importance and the seriousness of the creation message. The people of Jeremiah’s day were worshipping idols of wood, silver, and gold which they made with their own hands. God, through Jeremiah, points out the futility of their idolatry. He tells them: “Learn not the way...
Read MoreManufacturing Body Parts
I was just given a link to information on amazing research that has been going on for quite a while. I had heard about portions of the research, but huge advancements have been made recently.

The story goes like this: Before the industrial revolution in Great Britain, a large number of light-colored...

“The final evolution of the flagellum might then have involved only the novel recombination of sophisticated parts that initially evolved for other purposes.” – Scientific American’s attempt to discredit design It is interesting how many evolutionary “explanations” are hedged by the words, “may have, might have, or could have.” This is quite acceptable if the words are used to indicate a hypothesis, or an educated guess to be tested.
