You are Perfectly Created
Creationism has always been one of my favorite subjects to teach. Fortunately, my church ministry started with teaching teenage girls in group homes for abused children, so creationism was a main topic. If we go with the so-called scientific view that there was a “Big Bang” and a chemical reaction started in the ocean waters, there is NO truth in that theory at all, and I will explain why.
Supposedly, there was a collision in the universe that caused atoms to burst forth from an environment that was previously too hot for even atoms to survive. Then, by some happenstance, a “primordial soup” was created from chemical reactions, somehow creating the first organism (single-celled), which slowly developed to be more sophisticated and eventually crawled out of the ocean, and evolution began…sigh. Note: A chemical reaction has NEVER resulted in creating life!!!
Even as I was trying to find a modern, more updated version of this THEORY, I could find nothing that adequately explains how chemicals turned into organisms. Chemicals are NOT LIVING. There is NO LIFE in them. They cannot create life. Chemical reactions can cause explosions and can also move things around the inside of our bodies, but those chemicals are not DNA or RNA. Mostly, they are enzymes creating energy so our body can function. We are who we are because of GENES. What exactly are genes, and what do they do? From the Cleveland Clinic:
“Genes are segments of DNA that give your body the instructions for a specific characteristic (trait) or process. DNA is the molecules that make up those instructions. It’s packaged into your cells in chromosomes. If DNA is like a library and your chromosomes are books, your genes are like specific chapters in those books that describe you and how your body works.
When you hear something like “it’s in your genes,” most people think of having your mom’s smile or your dad’s eyes. But genes have many jobs beyond just the traits you can see. Your genes also give instructions for how your various body parts work and interact with each other. For example, genes write instructions not just for your hair color, eye color, and height, but also how your muscles help you move and how your immune system responds to germs.”
As you can see, DNA, RNA, genes, and chromosomes (plus many other reactions and actions) all work together to make a functioning organism live. We have chemical reactions in our body, mostly enzymes, which is a catalyst to the creation of energy and signals being sent throughout our bodies to maintain our temperature, create digestion, keep us breathing, our organs functioning, and our muscles moving. I am explaining a VERY COMPLEX system in simple terms for understanding by any person, but most importantly, I need you to understand that CHEMICALS DO NOT contain life-giving properties and therefore living organisms could not have been produced from a chemical reaction!
The idea that something as complex as our bodies could have been produced from a single-celled organism is laughable. As you can see above, INSTUCTIONS and MESSAGES must be sent in order for a reaction or signal to be sent throughout our body to keep us alive. A single celled organism (which still exist, just like apes – our supposed genealogy) cannot produce such complexity, even over time. There is no logical way for it to develop in such a complex manner.
Another interesting question to ask about the so-called scientific theories is that IF we evolved from single celled organisms, then eventually into apes, WHY are there still single celled organisms and apes? Why didn’t they evolve? If the theories are to be believed, then each subsequent “evolution” would’ve left the previous organism behind, and there wouldn’t be any of them left on earth. Why would one ape evolve into a human and another not? It doesn’t make any sense.
Think about your body and how your autonomic nervous system keeps you alive without you doing anything! It’s AUTOMATIC!
“Sympathetic nervous system: This system activates body processes that help you in times of need, especially times of stress or danger. This system is responsible for your body’s “fight-or-flight” response. This includes increased breathing when stressed.
Parasympathetic nervous system: This part of your autonomic nervous system does the opposite of your sympathetic nervous system. This system is responsible for the “rest-and-digest” body processes. This includes breathing at rest.
Enteric nervous system: This part of your autonomic nervous system manages how your body digests food.
This AUTONOMOUS system, which requires constant messages, temperature control, immune responses, enzymes, genes, blood, DNA, RNA, etc., cannot possibly have been “thrown together” accidentally by nature. It is far too complex and varied. It is not possible that each and every process REQUIRED for life could be randomly “tossed” together. Even simple puzzles need exact assembly. Think about this:
Look at your cell phone. It requires many parts to be put together in an exact manner in order for it to function. If any part breaks down or is put in wrong, it doesn’t work. Even simple exposure to water can make it unusable. Every electronic device, watches, and even this computer I am using requires an EXACT RECIPE of parts and interactions to function. One misplaced part or faulty circuit breaks these items so that they are unusable. Think how much more perfect our bodies have to be “assembled” to sustain such complex systems and actions!
If SIMPLE DEVICES require such precision and purposeful assembly, think how much more it takes for your lungs to be closed off when you swallow, your stomach closed off when you breathe, your eyes to feed information to your brain in nanoseconds for it to process so fast that you can read, see colors, shapes, and react to external stimuli, like danger. Think about your “closed loop” circulatory system, where blood grabs nutrients and spreads them throughout your body, using your heart. Then it gathers waste products and removes them. YOUR BODY is so complex that man has not ever been able to replicate it other than by cloning, which uses a living organism’s cell for reproduction with messages, genes, DNA, and RNA.
Since we have AI (Artificial Intelligence, which by the way is ARTIFICIAL…BEWARE!), why can’t man replicate a human in a laboratory without using live cells from a human??? If the creation of humans (and animals/plants) was so easy and happenstance, how is it that it cannot be replicated from scratch?
This subject and our bodies are so complex that I could write for a month and never explain each function, reaction, and message required to make your body work and run effectively and efficiently. And, although we are not the same “kingdom” as many animals, our bodies function the same. Two eyes, two lungs, one heart, one liver, two kidneys, legs, arms, feet, etc. We are made from the same TEMPLATE, with the differences depending on our Kingdom, phyla, class, family, genus, etc. Each living organism is extremely complex, but made perfectly for its purpose and survival. Furthermore, although humans were all created the same and equal, God made us each unique and different from each other. For example, we each have unique fingerprints. Uniquely, our own imprint from God marks us as “one of a kind.”
“So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.” – Genesis 1:27
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful; I know that full well.” – Psalms 139:14
You were not created accidentally by a chemical reaction that has never produced a living organism. You are made different than other humans, yet basically, the same. You were made perfectly by our Father in heaven, who knew every day of your life and hair on your head BEFORE you were born. (Luke 12:7) You were made to be EXACTLY who you are and for His purpose on earth.
Always remember you were CREATED by a loving, caring, and benevolent Creator who made you exactly as you are. You are PERFECT in His eyes and therefore should never doubt your value. You are not an accident of evolution but a CREATION of beauty, love, and you are perfectly made to be YOU! God bless and Amen. Lisa ><>
