Secular scientific-minded persons have often declared that Scripture is not compatible with science. Scripture is not primarily a science book, but it does reveal many scientific laws and principles that have aided man in discovery. This article and video presentation will provide numerous examples that demonstrate Scripture has revealed science long before man confirmed many scientific truths and will show how man has often erred in understanding science, as Scripture-based science proclamations were later proven to be true.
AIR HAS MASS, PRESSURE, VOLUME, AND WEIGHT
JOB 28:24-25 (NKJV):
For He looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole heavens, to establish a weight for the wind.
Evangelista Torricelli (1608-1647), Italian physicist and mathematician, invented the barometer and discovered that air has weight in 1640.
Robert William Boyle (1627-1691), Irish chemist, inventor, natural philosopher,
and physicist, experimented with air pumps and discovered many properties of air. Boyle’s law states that the volume of gases varies inversely to the pressure upon the gas. Boyle’s work with air pumps was published in 1660, “New Experiments Physico-Mechanicall, Touching the Spring of the Air, and its Effects.”
ANESTHESIOLOGY – ANESTHESIA – THE SCIENCE OF PAIN RELIEF
GENESIS 2:21 (NKJV):
And YHWH (the Lord) God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.
Sir James Young Simpson (1811-1870), Scottish obstetrician, discovered the anesthetic properties of chloroform and successfully pioneered its use for anesthesia in 1847. Simpson, a Scripture-believing Christian, was inspired by Genesis 2:21, which led him to transform surgeries into painless procedures.
THE ANT QUEEN AND HER COLONY
PROVERBS 6:6-8 (NKJV):
Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise, which, having no captain, overseer, or ruler, provides her supplies in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.
Entomology, the scientific study of insects, began as a science in the 16th century and confirmed what was written in Scripture about the ant: the queen ant is supplied with food by the colony ants that gather for her (Proverbs 30:25).
ANTIBACTERIAL SOAP
NUMBERS 19:6,9,17,19 (NKJV) (condensed):
Take cedar wood and hyssop and scarlet, and cast them into the midst of the fire burning the heifer. Gather up the ashes of the heifer, and store them outside the camp in a clean place and they shall be kept for the water of purification. Take some of the ashes of the heifer burnt for purification, and running water shall be put on them in a vessel. Take hyssop and dip it in the water, sprinkle it on the tent, on all the vessels, on the persons who were there. He shall purify himself, wash his clothes, and bathe in water; and at evening he shall be clean.
To make antibacterial soap, cedar wood, hyssop (aromatic plant), and scarlet material (wool) are cast upon a burning heifer. Once the mix has been consumed by fire, the ashes are gathered and placed in water to remove uncleanness. When water is poured through the ashes, an antiseptic called ‘thymol’ is produced, which contains antibacterial and antifungal properties.
Early American pioneer settlers would make soap as Scripture instructed.
BLOOD MAINTAINS LIFE
LEVITICUS 17:11 (NKJV):
The life of the flesh is in the blood.
William Harvey (1578-1657), English physician, discovered in 1620 that the heart circulates blood throughout the body and life is maintained by blood, which brings nourishment and carries away waste. His book, “De Motu Cordis – On the Motion of the Heart and Blood,” was published in 1628.
Physicians up until the late 19th century practiced bloodletting, withdrawing blood from their patients to alleviate them of their ailments, which was almost always harmful as it weakened patients and sometimes inadvertently killed them (ex: George Washington). The practice of bloodletting, except as a treatment for a few blood diseases, has been discontinued by modern medicine and is now considered to be a pseudoscience.
BREAD RECIPE
EZEKIEL 4:9 (NKJV):
Also take for yourself wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt;
put them into one vessel, and make bread of them for yourself.
Bread makers follow this recipe and variations of it to bake nutritious bread.
CHICKEN OR THE EGG: WHICH CAME FIRST?
GENESIS 1:21-22 (NKJV) (condensed):
So God created … every winged bird according to its kind. And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, …, and let birds multiply on the earth.”
The “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” question has plagued evolution-minded philosophers for centuries. Evolutionists have a dilemma in trying to explain the paradox that an egg cannot form without a chicken, and a chicken could not be formed without a Creator. Scripture is clear in proclaiming that the chicken came first and God commanded that the chicken (and all birds) were to multiply on the Earth thereafter.
Evolutionists proclaim that male and female genders came about through a gradual process of evolution. Scripture records the words of Yeshua (Jesus), who stated in Matthew 19 verse 4 and Mark 10 verse 6, that from the beginning of creation, God made them male and female.
Once thought to be simple blobs of flesh by evolutionists, scientists have since discovered that cells are incredibly complex structures, a veritable micro-miniaturized factory containing thousands of exquisitely designed pieces of intricate molecular machinery, made up altogether of one hundred thousand million atoms, far more complicated than any machinery built by man.
CIRCUMCISION IS IDEALLY SUITED FOR THE EIGHTH DAY
GENESIS 17:12 (NKJV):
He who is eight days old among you shall be circumcised, every male child in your generations.
LEVITICUS 12:3 (NKJV):
And on the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
Medical science has recently discovered that the blood clotting chemical prothrombin peaks in a newborn male child on the eighth day. On the eighth day, the amount of prothrombin present is actually elevated above 100% of normal and this is the only day in a male’s life in which this will be the case. The eighth day is the safest day to circumcise a male child [1].
THE FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS: THE CONSERVATION OF MASS
NEHEMIAH 9:6 (NKJV):
You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and everything on it, the seas and all that is in them, and You preserve them all.
ECCLESIASTES 1:9-10, 3:14-15 (NKJV):
That which has been is what will be, that which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of which it may be said, “See, this is new”? It has already been in ancient times before us. …
I know whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, and nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him. That which has already been, and what is to be has already been.
Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794), French chemist, discovered that although matter may change its form or shape, its mass always remains the same.
The law of the conservation of mass: There is no new mass or matter being created within our time-space-matter universe. The total amount of mass in the universe remains constant – it is merely changing from one form to another.
CONTAGION – THE SPREAD OF COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
LEVITICUS 15:2-13 (NKJV):
When any man has a discharge from his body, his discharge is unclean. And this shall be his uncleanness in regard to his discharge – whether his body runs with his discharge, or his body is stopped up by his discharge, it is his uncleanness.
Every bed is unclean on which he who has the discharge lies, and everything on which he sits shall be unclean. And whoever touches his bed shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. He who sits on anything on which he who has the discharge sat shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. And he who touches the body of him who has the discharge shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening.
If he who has the discharge spits on him who is clean, then he shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. Any saddle on which he who has the discharge rides shall be unclean. Whoever touches anything that was under him shall be unclean until evening. He who carries any of those things shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. And whomever the one who has the discharge touches, and has not rinsed his hands in water, he shall wash his clothes and bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. The vessel of earth that he who has the discharge touches shall be broken, and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.
And when he who has a discharge is cleansed of his discharge, then he shall count for himself seven days for his cleansing, wash his clothes, and bathe his body in running water; then he shall be clean.
NUMBERS 19:13-16 (NKJV):
Whoever touches the body of anyone who has died, and does not purify himself, defiles the tabernacle of the Lord. He shall be unclean, because the water of purification was not sprinkled on him; his uncleanness is still on him.
This is the law when a man dies in a tent: All who come into the tent and all who are in the tent shall be unclean seven days; and every open vessel, which has no cover fastened on it, is unclean. Whoever in the open field touches one who is slain by a sword or who has died, or a bone of a man, or a grave, shall be unclean seven days.
Scripture gives instruction of biohazard contagion and the methodology to prevent it through hygiene and quarantine rules. For many centuries, doctors wore bloodstained gowns while operating on their patients until it became known that they were infecting them with contagions. Since the early 1900’s, doctors and surgeons began wearing clean white long-sleeved coats, gowns, or scrubs and the spread of contagions from hospital operating tables was greatly reduced.
THE HUMAN DIET: EATING UNCLEAN CREATURES CAUSES FEEBLENESS, ILLNESS, PLAGUES, AND PREMATURE DEATH
Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 list the creatures that may be eaten as food and unclean creatures that are not to be eaten. Among the unclean creatures listed are swine and all sea creatures that do not have fins and overlapping, shedding scales.
Dr. David Macht, (1882-1961), did research on Scripture-declared clean and unclean creatures according to Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 to test their non-toxicity and toxicity levels. Macht studied 88 clean and unclean creatures and found that the unclean creatures were toxic and the clean creatures were non-toxic according to his toxicity tests. There was a 100% correlation between clean creatures and non-toxicity and unclean creatures and toxicity. His findings were published by John Hopkins University in the “Bulletin of the History of Medicine,” September-October issue in 1953, and was titled, “An Experimental Pharmacological Appreciation of Leviticus XI and Deuteronomy XIV.”
A 2015 World Health Organization press release reported that consuming processed pork products such as bacon, pork hot dogs, and sausage causes cancer [2]. Numerous government reports have periodically warned consumers of the dangers of consuming shellfish. Fish without scales are plagued with parasites and have higher levels of mercury and other toxins than fish with overlapping, shedding scales. It has been scientifically verified that consuming Scripture-listed unclean creatures causes a variety of health issues, diseases, feebleness, weakening of the body, and premature death.
DINOSAURS DESCRIBED IN SCRIPTURE
JOB 40:15-18 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
Look now at the behemoth [BRACHIOSAURUS], which I made along with you; he eats grass like an ox. See now, his strength is in his hips, and his power is in his stomach muscles. He moves his tail like a cedar; the sinews of his thighs are tightly knit. His bones are like beams of bronze, his ribs like bars of iron.
JOB 41:1-2,13-15,25-30,33-34 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
Can you draw out Leviathan [TYRANNOSAURUS REX] with a hook or snare his tongue with a line which you lower? Can you put a reed through his nose or pierce his jaw with a hook? …
Who can remove his outer coat? Who can approach him with a double bridle? Who can open the doors of his face, with his terrible teeth all around? His rows of scales are his pride, shut up tightly as with a seal…
When he raises himself up, the mighty are afraid. Because of his crashings they are bewildered. Though the sword reaches him, it cannot avail; nor does spear, dart, or javelin. He regards iron as straw and bronze as rotten wood. The arrow cannot make him flee and sling-stones become like stubble to him. Darts are regarded as straw and he laughs at the threat of javelins. His undersides are like sharp potsherds..
On earth there is nothing like him – one that is made without fear. He beholds every high thing. He is king over all.
Sir Richard Owen (1804-1892), English biologist, comparative anatomist, and paleontologist first coined the term ‘dinosaur’ in 1842 after he and other geologists found many large reptilian-like fossils.
Job 40 and 41 describes dinosaurs that were created with and lived together with man.
The secular science narrative that dinosaurs lived of millions of years ago is false.
EARTH IS A CIRCULAR SPHERE HANGING ON NOTHING IN SPACE
JOB 26:7 (NKJV):
He [GOD] hangs the earth on nothing.
JOB 26:10 (NKJV):
He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters, at the boundary of light and darkness.
ISAIAH 40:22 (NKJV):
It is God who sits above the circle of the earth.
Ferdinand Magellan (1480-1521), Portuguese explorer, organized the first voyage to circumnavigate the globe, providing proof to the world that the Earth was round. Until then, it was widely believed that the Earth was flat.
Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727), English mathematician, philosopher, and physicist, wrote “Principia” in 1684, which explained that the planets are suspended in empty space, held in their orbits by an invisible force – gravity.
EARTH HAS THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF WATER
JOB 28:25-26 (NKJV):
God apportioned the waters by measure when He made a law for the rain.
JOB 38:8-11 (NKJV):
Who shut the sea with doors, when it burst forth and issued from the womb; when I made clouds its garment, and thick darkness its swaddling band; when I fixed My limit for it, and set bars and doors; when I said, ‘This far you may come, but no farther, and here your proud waves must stop!’
ISAIAH 40:12 (NKJV):
God has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand.
Science has confirmed that the Earth has the right amount of water to support life and
that the Earth is located in the perfect Goldilocks Zone in its distance away from the Sun.
The definition of the ‘Goldilocks Zone’ or ‘Habitable Zone’ is the region of space where conditions are favorable for life as it is found on Earth, allowing for the existence of liquid water and life. If Earth revolved around the Sun at a greater distance, the water on Earth would freeze over. If Earth were too close to the Sun, the liquid water on Earth would evaporate.
EARTH SPINS ON ITS AXIS
JOB 38:14 (KJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
It [THE EARTH] is turned as clay to the seal [ON A POTTER’S WHEEL]; and they [THE CLOUDS – JOB 38:9] stand as a garment.
Heraclides Ponticus (387–312 BC), Greek astrologer and philosopher, first proposed that the Earth rotates on its axis. Many people continued to believe that the Earth did not move, based on a misunderstanding of Scripture verses that say the Earth is established and cannot be moved (Psalm 93:1, 104:5; 1 Chronicles 16:30). “The Earth cannot be moved” is a reference to the Earth’s stability, and that it is established in orbit and cannot be moved out of orbit.
Nikola Tesla (1856-1943), Serbian American inventor, electrical and mechanical engineer, physicist, and futurist developed the practical use for alternating current and invented numerous electrical devices.
Tesla, inspired by the Earth’s rotation and magnetic field, realized a method for applying alternating current and developed the first AC induction motor.
EARTH’S CORE IS HOT
JOB 28:5 (NKJV):
As for the earth, from it comes bread, but underneath it is turned up as by fire.
Inge Lehmann (1888-1993), Danish geophysicist and seismologist, discovered that the Earth has a solid inner core inside a molten outer core. Seismic wave measurements show that the Earth’s inner core “turns up” its outer core with immense heat. Scientists have since discovered that the Earth’s inner core is hotter than the surface of the Sun.
EARTH’S CONTINENTS WERE FORMED BY WATER
GENESIS 1:2-3,9-10 (NKJV):
The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. … Then God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas.
2 PETER 3:5 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
By the word of God… the earth [IS] standing out of water and in the water.
During the 20th century, geologists came to understand that the Earth’s continents are comprised of sediment that is less dense than the sediment at the sea floor. The waters of the seas press down on the denser oceanic crust, which gives rise to the less dense continental crust. Geologists have concluded that the Earth’s continents were formed by seawater.
Cosmic evolutionists promote the theory that the Earth, billions of years ago, was a very hot, molten planet that eventually began to cool when meteors showered it with water, which later formed the seas. Scripture and verifiable science refute the theory that the Earth was formed from a hot, molten planetary origin.
ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
JOB 38:35 (NKJV):
Can you send out lightnings that they may go and say to you, ‘Here we are!’?
James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879), Scottish mathematical physicist, theorized that light waves could be sent out and manifested as speech.
Alexander Graham Bell (1847-1922), Scottish-born American, applied Maxwell’s Electromagnetic Radiation Theory when he invented the telephone in 1876.
Electromagnetic waves composed of light and radio waves are forms of light that are the basis for all electromagnetic communications. Today, using electric signal transmissions, we send out “lightnings” to transmit communications through cell phones, the Internet, radio, and television.
FABRICS: NOT MIXING OR WEARING WOOL AND LINEN TOGETHER
LEVITICUS 19:19 (NKJV):
Nor shall a garment of mixed linen and wool come upon you.
DEUTERONOMY 22:11 (NKJV):
You shall not wear a garment of different sorts, such as wool and linen mixed together.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (1883-1970), German medical doctor and physiologist, identified the atomic signature frequency number of the average healthy human being to be 70-90. Science has determined that when fabrics are worn, which emit a higher frequency than humans, they support human health and healing.
Linen and wool each have an atomic frequency of 5,000. Individually they both maintain health and heal the human body. Linen bed sheets are known to give the best restful night’s sleep, better than cotton sheets, which have a much lower atomic frequency.
Scientific studies have shown that when linen and wool are mixed in a fabric, or are worn together, the energy generated by the two fabrics collapses their electrical fields. The two fabrics individually each emit 5,000 atomic signature frequencies, but when mixed or worn together their atomic fields cancel each other out and can cause pain and weakness to sensitive persons who wear linen and wool together [3].
FLIGHT BY MANKIND
ISAIAH 18:1 (NKJV) (HSV†):
Woe to the land shadowed with buzzing (whirring†) wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia.
ISAIAH 40:8 (NKJV):
Those who wait on YHWH (the Lord) shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles.
ISAIAH 60:8 (NKJV):
Who are these who fly like a cloud, and like doves to their roosts?
HOSEA 11:11 (NKJV):
They shall come trembling like a bird from Egypt, like a dove from the land of Assyria.
The Wright brothers, Orville (1871-1948) and Wilbur (1867-1912), American inventors and aviation pioneers, are credited with inventing, building, and flying the world’s first successful airplane.
Igor Ivanovich Sikorsky (1889-1972), Russian-American, designed the first viable American helicopter in 1939, and later reconfigured the design for the first mass-produced helicopters in 1942.
Before controlled manned flight, many churches smugly uttered the axiom, “If God had meant for man to fly, He would have given him wings.” If the Christian churches had known their Scriptures, they would not have uttered such phrases, for the Scriptures declared that mankind would take to flight.
LIGHT CAN BE DIVIDED
JOB 38:25 (NKJV, KJV, HS):
By what way is light (diffused, parted, divided)?
Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727), English mathematician, philosopher, and physicist, discovered in 1666 that white light could be divided into a spectrum of colors, because white light was composed of particles with different colors that traveled with different speeds through a prism. Before Newton’s Corpuscular Theory of Light, which was later confirmed, it was believed that white light was colorless and that the prism itself produced the colors.
LIGHT TRAVELS IN A WAY
JOB 38:19 (NKJV):
Where is the way to the dwelling of light?
Ole Romer (1644-1710), Danish astronomer, demonstrated in 1676 that light has a finite speed at which it travels. Before the 17th century, scientists believed that the transmission of light was instantaneous and did not travel in any particular way.
LEAVES CONTAIN HEALING COMPOUNDS
EZEKIEL 47:12 (NKJV):
Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine.
REVELATION 22:2 (NKJV):
The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
Modern medicine has discovered what many ancient cultures have known for centuries: that there are healing compounds found in leaves. Approximately 12,000 leaf compounds have been isolated thus far. Leaf extracts are widely used to treat a variety of ailments including burns, skin treatment, wounds, and as herbal remedies for a host of other internal organ issues.
OPEN WOUND DISINFECTION AND PROTECTION
LUKE 10:34 (NKJV):
“So he went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine.”
Yeshua (Jesus), when telling the parable story of the Good Samaritan, gave man knowledge of how to treat and protect open wounds. Today, we know that wine contains ethyl alcohol and traces of methyl alcohol, both of which are good disinfectants. Olive oil is also a good disinfectant, as well as a soothing lotion, moisturizer, and protector. Both wine and olive oil help protect and heal open wounds.
During the Middle Ages and right up until the 20th century, millions of people died due to man not knowing how to treat and protect open wounds.
ALL HUMANS ARE GENETICALY RELATED, YET EACH PERSON IS UNIQUE
JOB 37:7 (NKJV):
He seals the hand of every man.
ACTS 17:26 (NKJV):
And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth.
Every man and woman who has ever been born is unique. No two persons, even identical twins, share the same fingerprint or handprint. Evolutionists have claimed that human beings evolved from apes millions of years ago, but their atheistic-driven theory is scientifically unsupported. Science has recently determined, through DNA and chromosome testing that all human beings share the same gene pool and thus all persons are uniquely different, yet all of mankind are genetically related [4][5][6].
MAN WAS MADE FROM THE DUST OF THE EARTH
GENESIS 2:7, 3:19 (NKJV):
And YHWH (the Lord) God formed man of the dust of the ground. …
In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for dust you are, and to dust you shall return.
PSALM 139:15 (NKJV):
My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
1 CORINTHIANS 15:47 (NKJV):
The first man was of the earth, made of dust.
Researchers at NASA’s Ames Research Center published an article in Reader’s Digest in 1982 that said, “We are just beginning to learn. The biblical scenario for the creation of life turns out to be not far off the mark.” The researchers found that the human body is composed of the same elements and minerals found in the Earth’s crust [7]. Scientists had previously dismissed the simplicity of Scripture’s account of the creation of man, as they did not think there was any way that the complex structure of the human body was formed from dust.
METEOROLOGY: CLOUD FORMATION, LIGHTNING, AND RAIN
PSALM 135:7 (NKJV):
He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; He makes lightning for the rain.
Aristotle, (384-322 BC), Greek philosopher and scientist, first theorized the formation of clouds forming from vapors of waters from the Earth and attributed heavier rain to greater lightning. Aristotle, in a thesis titled “Meteorology” wrote, “Cloud is a vaporous mass, concentrated and producing water. Rain is produced from the compression of a closely condensed cloud, varying according to the pressure exerted on the cloud; when the pressure is slight it scatters gentle drops; when it is great it produces a more violent fall, and we call this a shower, being heavier than ordinary rain, and forming continuous masses of water falling over earth.”
OCEANS HAVE MOUNTAINS, SPRINGS, AND FOUNTAINS
GENESIS 7:11 (NKJV):
On that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up.
JOB 38:16 (NKJV):
Have you entered the springs of the sea?
PROVERBS 8:28 (NKJV):
He strengthened the fountains of the deep.
JONAH 2:3,5-6 (NKJV) (condensed):
“For You cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas…
The waters surrounded me, even to my soul; the deep closed around me; weeds were wrapped around my head. I went down to the moorings (bottoms) of the mountains.”
In the 20th century, oceanographers discovered that there are mountain ranges under the sea. Some of these mountains rise more than 3,000 feet above the sea floor, but do not reach the water’s surface (sea level). Until recently, scientists believed that oceans were fed water only by rain and rivers. In the 1970’s, using submarines and deep sea diving oceanography equipment, researchers discovered springs on the ocean floors.
PETROLEUM: SCRIPTURE REVEALS MAN WOULD UTILIZE OIL
DEUTERONOMY 32:13, 33:19 (NKJV):
He made him draw honey from the rock, and oil from the flinty rock… For they shall partake of the abundance of the seas and the treasures hidden in the sand.
Petroleum is based on Latin meaning ‘petra’ (rock), and ‘oleum’ (oil). Scripture foretold that man would draw oil from beneath the Earth’s crust and that there would be treasure hidden in the sand, long before man had invented an internal combustion engine or had any use for oil.
SABBATH REST – THE HEART BEATS SLOWER ON THE SABBATH
GENESIS 2:1-2 (NKJV):
Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished. And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.
EXODUS 31:16-17 (NKJV):
Therefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations as a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between Me and the children of Israel forever; for in six days YHWH (the Lord) made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day He rested and was refreshed.
God instituted the Seventh-day Sabbath after the creation, and He rested on the Sabbath. The Sabbath is not for the Jews only, but for all mankind.
Scientific tests have determined that for everybody, regardless of race or religious belief, the heart beats more slowly on Saturday than on any other day of the week. Even if a person has a day off on any other day of the week, the heart still beats more slowly on Saturdays. [8]
THE STARS CANNOT BE COUNTED, BUT GOD KNOWS THEIR NUMBER
GENESIS 15:5 (NKJV):
Then YHWH (the Lord) brought Abram outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.”
JEREMIAH 33:22 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
As the host of heaven [STARS OF THE UNIVERSE] cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured.
PSALM 147:4 (NKJV):
YHWH (the Lord) counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name.
Edwin Hubble, American astronomer, discovered that many objects previously thought to be clouds of dust and gas and classified as “nebulae” were actually galaxies beyond the Milky Way.
Modern high-powered and space-based telescopes have enabled astronomers to peer far out into the known universe and view trillions of stars. Scripture was accurate in proclaiming that man would not be able to count the number of the stars, but declares God knows their number and calls them by name.
STARS MAKE SOUND
JOB 38:7 (NKJV):
When the morning stars sang together.
PSALM 148:3 (NKJV):
Praise Him, all you stars of light!
1 CORINTHIANS 15:41 (NKJV):
There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
Astronomers have discovered that stars emit light and radio waves, which produce sounds that can be received on Earth. The insides of stars pulsate, which create sound waves that move through a star. Every star has its own unique sound that is different from other stars.
STARS MOVE
JOB 38:32 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
Can you bring out constellations [STARS] in their season?
MATTHEW 2:9 (NKJV):
And behold, the star that they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was.
JUDE 1:12-13 (NKJV):
They are… wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.
Aryabhata (476-550), Indian astronomer and mathematician, correctly advocated that the Earth turns on its own axis, which accounted for the apparent movement of the stars, contrary to the then prevailing view that the sky rotated around the Earth. Aryabhata incorrectly presumed that the stars did not move at all.
Edmond Halley (1656-1742), English astronomer, geophysicist, mathematician, meteorologist, and physicist, best known for computing the orbit of Halley’s Comet named after him, in 1718 discovered the motion of stars through astrometric measurements.
Doppler spectroscopy detects the ‘wobble’ of stars as planets cause their parent star to wobble slightly as the planet revolves around the mass of the star, tugging at it and causing it to wobble.
Modern day astronomers have observed stars moving in orbit in galaxies that revolve around black holes believed to be located at the galaxy’s center.
TIME HAD A BEGINNING
GENESIS 1:1 (NKJV):
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 TIMOTHY 1:9 (NKJV):
His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus) before time began.
TITUS 1:2 (NKJV):
In hope of eternal life, which God who cannot lie, promised before time began.
Albert Einstein (1879-1955), German-born Jewish American theoretical physicist, developed the General Theory of Relativity. Einstein’s theory proposed that time was intricately connected to matter and space. His theory helped the world understand that time was finite and had a beginning. Before Einstein’s theory, many believed that time, space, and matter always existed.
God exists outside of the confines of time, space, and matter, which He created [9].
WIND CIRCUITS AND OCEAN CURRENTS
PSALM 8:8 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
The birds of the air, and the fish of the sea pass through the paths [WIND CIRCUITS AND OCEAN CURRENTS] of the seas.
ECCLESIASTES 1:6-7 (NKJV):
The wind goes toward the south, and turns around towards the north; the wind whirls around continually, and comes again in its circuit. All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full; to the place from which the rivers come, there they return again.
Matthew Fontain Maury (1806-1873), American astronomer, author, cartographer, educator, geologist, historian, oceanographer, and meteorologist was nicknamed “Pathfinder of the Seas,” and “Father of Modern Oceanography and Naval Meteorology,” and “Scientist of the Seas,” due to his extensive work and publications including “The Physical Geography of the Seas” (1855). Maury, a Christian inspired by Psalm 8:8, dedicated his life to discovering the paths of the seas. Maury’s discoveries aided sailing vessels to take advantage of sea and air currents, reducing by many days the time required for ships to transverse the seas. His work also aided whaling ships to understand that whales followed predictable migrating sea patters.
Modern day meteorologists use wind currents to predict weather patterns, and to chart the courses of storms and hurricanes.
THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION
GENESIS 1:26 (NKJV):
Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.”
ROMANS 1:22 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God [MAN] into an image [EVOLUTION ART DRAWINGS] made like corruptible man – and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882), English naturalist, geologist, and biologist, is best known for his theory of evolution. Darwin believed that all species of life evolved into higher life forms, over time, having descended from a common ancestor. Darwin published his theory of evolution in his 1859 book, “The Origin of Species.”
The Darwinian theory of molecules to man evolution and all other kinds of life in between is refuted by verifiable science and Scripture.
Countless Chemical experiments have failed to create simple life in the laboratory, ruling out abiogenesis. Of the billions of fossils found, there are no transitional fossils that show a transformation between any of the major life-forms into a different kind of life form.
Creatures do not transform into other kinds of creatures.
The evolution observed within creatures is limited to microevolution, which allows for limited genetic variation within kinds as a means to adapt to different environmental circumstances.
Macroevolution is not, nor has ever been, observed to occur and the fossil record shows that it does not occur over long periods of time.
Scripture records, in the Genesis chapter 1 account, that God created creatures according to their kinds and this is verified by the fossil record.
The following statements are attributed to well-known outspoken evolutionists, which reveals their true spiritual rebellion as their basis for denying God the creator and embracing atheistic Darwinian evolution.
“Evolution is not a fact. Evolution doesn’t even qualify as a theory or as a hypothesis. It is a metaphysical research program, and it is not really testable science.” – Dr. Karl Popper
“I suppose the reason why we leapt at the Origin of Species was that the idea of God interfered with our sexual mores.” – Sir Julian Huxley
“Evolution is promoted by its practitioners as more than mere science. Evolution is promulgated as an ideology… Evolution is a religion. This was true of evolution in the beginning, and it is true of evolution still today.” – Michael Ruse
“Evolution is unproved and unprovable. We believe it only because the only alternative is special creation, and that is unthinkable.” – Sir Arthur Keith
“I have a slight problem with the celestial dictatorship premise.” – Stephen Hawking
Scripture foretold of the true motivation of those who push their atheistic faith upon society, using the pseudoscience of Darwinian evolution to do so…
ROMANS 1:22-25 (NKJV) [WITH INTERPRETATION]:
Professing to be wise, they [DARWINIAN EVOLUTIONISTS] became fools,
and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God [MAN] into an image
[EVOLUTION ART DRAWINGS] made like corruptible man – and birds and
four-footed animals and creeping things.
Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts,
to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God
[THE CREATOR] for the lie [OF EVOLUTION], and worshiped and served the
creature [AS THE CREATOR THROUGH EVOLUTION] rather than [GOD] the
Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Science and the Bible, do they contradict? The answer is a resounding no.
The heavens declare the glory of God -Psalm 19:1, and science confirms it!
