Proof of Creation

But our God is in the heavens: he has done whatever he has pleased. Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not: They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not: They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat. They that make them are like them; so is every one that trusts them.
NKJV Psalms 115:3-6  

Jesus said  Having eyes, see you not? and having ears, hear you not? and do you not remember? 
NKJV Mark 8:18

For those that have eyes to see and ears to hear - absolute proof of creation is all around us, specifically, look to the skies. The relationship between the Earth, the Sun, and Moon is not happenstance. Albert Einstein said in a letter "I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice". Einstein also saw that the universe was not about random chance.


The Sun is 400 times bigger (diameter) and further away from the Earth, than the Moon. Yet to our eye on Earth, they are exactly the same size. The Moon perfectly lines up and covers the entire disc of the Sun at eclipse. The Moon's day (axial rotation) is exactly the same as the time it takes to rotate around the earth once, a lunar month, or new Moon to new Moon. 

Also because of it's orbit, we only see one side of the Moon. The equivalent would be if someone looked at Earth from high above the north pole and only saw the northern hemisphere, never the southern. The northern hemisphere summer would be like a full moon, fall and spring like the first and last quarter moon and winter would be like a new moon. There is no "dark side" of the Moon, just the side we don't see. The Sun shines on the Moon all over, just like the Earth. It is in this relationship that we have the Moon's phases, which are in fact, only real from our perspective. 

It is impossible for this perfect relationship to be anything other than created. To believe that the moon is a product of a "glancing blow" between Earth and another planet, leaving debris in this exact location is ludicrous. There is not enough random chance to give the odds of this occurring - what, a gazillion to one!!! I have always felt that believing in a universe without a Creator, is a belief in total fantasy. 

However, we know that many people in fact are like the idol's and their makers - with non-seeing eyes and non-hearing ears. If a person is unwilling to see this most basic, most obvious truth, I doubt there is hope for enlightenment.

This brings me to the point of plant, animal and human creation. To remove God, the Father as Creator, leaves you with a fairy tale, which goes something like this - 

Once upon a time about 15 billion years ago, a really big bang occurred that took all of the matter in the universe from a very small core to hurling outward at the speed of light. All of this chaos began to spin and become spherical, forming planets and galaxies and the like. In one little corner of the universe, the milky way galaxy came into being and in one little corner of that, our solar system. There was this giant ball of nuclear fusion and a comparably tiny planet that formed just at the right distance to be neither too cold or too hot. The moon was cast out of the earth to come to its exact resting place and all of the other planets happened along as well - all in a perfect elliptical orbit.

Then on the 3rd rock from the big ball of fire, circumstances came to be that a "primordial ooze" with all the elements for life. This total coincidence was chemically altered by a lightning bolt which in turn lead to the first cell. The cell knew it had a better chance of survival if it teamed up with other cells, this leading to fish evolving to amphibians evolving to reptiles evolving to animals and finally man. 

Who wouldn't find this totally believable, oh and there is absolutely no proof of any of it!!! Of course God, the Father created all things and He created plants, animals and even man with the ability to evolve to better fit and survive in their environment. All species have evolved to some degree to fit their environment, but it is the height of folly to believe one species magically evolves into another - POPPYCOCK!!!

For those that have eyes to see and ears to hear ....

In Christ,
The Reverend Doctor Douglas Stephenson
