MORE EVIDENCE OF GOD’S DIVINE DESIGN
"How many are your works, O Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures" Psalm 104:24.

Let’s consider the Bombardier Beetle! This beetle has a unique defense system. At the back of this creature are two nozzles that can be rotated in any direction. When the beetle is approached by any of it’s enemies, it fires a steaming hot spray at it so violently that it seems and sounds like an explosion. True marksman with this defense system. It is deadly accurate! The formula is as follows: Chemical A is hydrogen peroxide; chemical B is hydroquinones; A + B makes hot noxious gases (212 degrees F). Chemical C is an inhibitor which keeps A + B from happening. Chemical D is an anti-inhibitor which neutralizes C which causes A + B to happen. All of these elements must be present or this defense won’t work. It is foolish to think that this complex system came about through evolution. Any one of these elements missing or any of the firing sequences being out of order results in a dead beetle.

Let’s consider the eye! Charles Darwin once said that the very thought of the complexity of the eye gave him chills. It should! Because if it took as long as deemed by evolution for the eye to evolve we would all still be blind as new born kittens. Yes the eye is complex, but God designed it! "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well". Psalm 139:13-14.

The eye has an ‘auto focus’ which is a lens that can actually change its shape to accomplish that. It also has an ‘auto iris’ adjustment. The ‘retina’ is thinner than a sheet of Saran Wrap; far more sensitive to light than any man made film. It has 10, 000,000 ‘receptors’ in the retina; these photo receptors replace themselves every seven days; each photo receptor is vastly more complex than the most sophisticated man made computer. 10 million calculations every second in each receptor before the light image even gets to the brain.

It would take more than a hundred years of Cray super computer time to accomplish what takes place in your eye many times a second. "Take heed, you senseless ones among the people; you fools, when will you become wise? Does he who implanted the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see?" Psalm 94:8-9.

When I was in school, evolution was talked about but it wasn’t being taught. Most listened to the ideas being bantered about but we had our own thoughts and beliefs. Today, evolution is referred to as a theory but most believe it is fact. I believe, it has been said, that it takes more blind faith to believe in evolution than to believe in God’s creation. God’s creation began with all the i’s doted and the t’s crossed. A tail was already there and didn’t have to evolve. An eye could already see without having to wait until the receptor was in place.

In Revelation chapter 14 it is talking about an angel flying in midair spreading the gospel to those who live on the earth. He was talking to every nation, tribe and people of varied languages. In verse 7 he said with a loud voice; "Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water." Believe me, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to get me to pay attention when it says the hour of his judgement has come.

Man in all his foolishness cause me to wonder; Man with all his creativity makes me stop and look; but man cannot convince me that I came from the ancestry of Apes. There is no way that I will accept a man’s concept when God has given me his son. If you knew what was on the other side would you hesitate to choose God? I know very little but what I do know is that; "The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of his hands" Psalm 19:1.
