"In the beginning was the word ..."
John 1.1
3. Saturday is a monument of creation
Probably not all who read these lines, are
Christians. And, of course, many of the you say: "what this conversation is about the"
Saturday of the Lord "? There is no God, it has been proven by science!
And the Bible is simply an invention of the ancient, retarded people... "
Take a look at Figure 1. It is showing
"all the knowledge about the universe” in the form of an ellipse and
"knowledge of modern humanity”...
in the form of dots! Only 1% of all
at the end of the twentieth century is the level of knowledge of the
universe! Today people know something about the visible (material) world and
almost know nothing about invisible (spiritual) world of the universe (Col
1.16).
How would you look at the man sitting in an
empty room without Windows, and the speaker: "In the universe is nothing but a Chair
on which I sit?" Gentlemen scientists! To great further, it looks like
each of you, including doctors of Sciences, professors and academics when you
say: "There is nothing in the universe besides matter"!
But I'm not going to engage in sophistry.
Here are the first texts on Saturday and irrefutable proof that God exists and the Bible is true.
So,
3.1. The picture of creation: the power and
authority of God's Word
To the question "is there a God?" I
answer clearly and responsibly: Yes.
"Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and
look who create them? Who prints the host their account? He calls them all by
name: great power and great power it nothing is eliminated”. The proper name
for God (יהוה) translated as Everlasting Exists,
the Creator, the Almighty (Is 40.26 , Acts 17.24-25, Col 1.17). In the universe
has a perfect order. The universe itself has a cellular-form structure of galaxies.
No heavenly body does not come from its orbit. The land is located just in the
Ecosphere - at a
distance of 149.000.000 km (1 AU - astronomical unit), which ensures the life
on it, and It
does not overheat and freeze up. The percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere is
21%, more
and no less, that we not burnt or suffocated. Could this be the result of a
"big bang"? No, because the explosion creates and destroys and we
know perfectly well.
And now lower your eyes to the sky to the ground. "And truly: ask the
animals, and teach you -
the birds of heaven, and will tell thee; or talk with Earth, and guide you, and tell you
fish the ocean. Who in the whole does not know that the hand of the Lord has
created these things? " (Job 12.7-9). Look at the striking and complex behavior
of beavers, ants and bees, the flights of birds, of which there is no map, no
compass, on the Commonwealth of living beings (animals-hermit), geometrically
correct and yet large - plastic flowers and you will see that it made a wise hand
of the creator.
As to the theory of spontaneous generation,
it be situable for 19th - first half the 20th century, to the late 20th century is not
suitable for the following reasons:
a) life could not arise by chance; a primary
broth» upcoming season (like "koacervates» of Oparin) simply could not
conceive - this is the result of the experiments of Stanley Miller in 1953.
b) Formation of proteins depends on DNA and
the DNA could not be formed without already existing adequate protein, hence they are having at
the same time.
c) among the fossils found there is no
intermediate links (frog different from the fish more difficult spine, the pelvis,
the ability to live
on land and three - cameras heart with two circles of blood circuation, not one
as fish). Not refuted the assertion that the animals are "based on them" (Gen 1.21,
24.25).
d) Neanderthal was not an ancestor of modern
man, and was just sick misshapen instance (Fred Hoyle, "Ice", 1981, p.
35).
e) on a scientific conference in Uppsala
(Sweden) said that the radiometric method gives an error not in several years, and by
several orders of magnitude (playoff) as in the past, the decay rate is not constant, and
therefore the dating of earlier 2000 years BC untrustworthy (Seattle Post-Intelligencer,
"Radiocarbon Dating
is Wrong, January 18, 1976, p. 8).
f) artificial selection and mutation do not
confirm and refute the theory of evolution; today there are many breeds of dog, but the
dog has not had any other animals (On Call, July 3, 1972, pp. 8-9).
g) many other facts that I was not here for
lack of space.
"Science, after she objected to the
theologian, in that it relies on myths and miracles found myself in the unenviable position of
MAKING YOUR OWN MYTHOLOGY ".
Lauren Ajseli, The Immense Journey, 1957, p.
200
So God exists. In this case, what is It? I
will say immediately that this isn't some old man, seated on a throne (this
view is condemned even Augustine, who lived in the IV-V centuries). Christians believe in one God in
three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Gen 1.1-2 and John 1.1, Matt 28.19, 1 John
5.7) as incomprehensible and uncanny personality: "Can the study find God?
Can completely comprehend the Almighty? He is above the heaven - what can you
do? Deeper into the underworld – what can to know? " (Job 11.7-8). The Bible also talks about the main thing as
a God - of love. "For God so loved
the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever, faith in Him
should not perish, but have everlasting life "(John 3.16). For us is not
as important as looks
like God as what he is omniscient, omnipotent and full of love.
In the first chapter of the book of Genesis
is not a myth or a fairy tale, but a rational and scientific picture of the
creation of our world. It differs from the scientific theories that said not
about evolution or procreation, but about the creation of the world God.
"In the beginning God created the
heavens and the Earth" (Gen. 1.1). American astronauts, James Lovell and
William Anders, the crew of the ship "Apollo 8", after seeing the
universe from Lunar orbit in admiration opened the first page of the Bible
and the land handed over to this text: "In the beginning God created the heaven and the
earth"! As unlike naïve statement: “Gagarin flew, and God is not
seen"!
Our solar system - not the first creation of
God. She
had lived in front of trillions of inhabitants of other worlds of the universe,
"with Lazarus matinee stars, when all the sons of God shouted for joy "(job 38.7).
Many find a contradiction in that light and
plants arose before the Sun. But for God nothing is impossible, because the Bible allows
and another model of creation. "God is not opened to people exactly what
work was carried out by creation" (E. White,” Patriarchs and prophets ", ch. 9).
So, let's say that on the first day God
created all solar system bodies: the Sun, 9 large planets, their satellites, over 1600
minor planets (asteroids), about 100 comets and etc. "The Earth was without form, and
void, and darkness over the abyss" (Gen 1.2). The land was probably covered in a
layer of water vapor that sunlight couldn't reach the
covered water lifeless planet.
"And God said: let there be light"
(v.3). Since then, the light of the Sun, therefore, became the see on Earth
due to the dilution, the vapors, and night and day succeeded each other as in
the dark cloudy weather
(the Sun and the other luminaries were not visible).
On the second day God created the space
separating the water from water "(v.6). Leading water pairs high density
was raised, and there was a "firmament" is the bottom layer of the
atmosphere (Heb.
"rakia" ).
The third day happened something amazing: the
surface crust of the Earth came into the movement, and the Ocean was land. And
immediately there appeared the plants of all species.
In the fourth day, God said: “Yes to
luminaries in the firmament of heaven "(in other words,"yes there
will be lights visible from Eart”h, because the" firmament "is the
space in which we live (v. 14,6).
On the fifth day there were animals in the
water, and birds, and on the sixth day - terrestrial belly and, finally, the
Crown of creation-members. Living beings are created of the same elements, that and the
land (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, chlorine, etc.) and are capable of a
certain ability to change itself, which is evident from the words "making
water" and "Yes to revolutionise Earth" (Gen 1.20,24, 2.7).
"He said - and was made; He commanded,
and was" (Psalm 33.9).
This is the biblical pattern of creation.
A few words in favor of the Bible. This
ancient book was written over 1600 years and completed in the 1st century BC, her wrote 40
people, but in their books, there is no contradiction,on the contrary, they are
in harmony with each other, complement each other and are confirmed by
archaeology. The Bible foreshadowing many scientific discoveries: the
sphericity of the Earth and the absence of “whales”, “elephants”, and other props (Is
40.22, Job 26.7), law of world gravity (Is 45.12), the water cycle in nature (Eccl 1.7), the
weight of the air (Job 28.25), the composition of the human body, blood and the
circulatory system (Gen 2.7, 9.5, Eccl 12.5-6), the influence of genes on personality (Ps
139.16), flights of birds (Jer 8.7) and much more.
Finally, the Bible predicts the future, which
is exactly performed. Here is one example:
“The sixth Angel blew his trumpet, and I
heard a voice from the four horns of the Golden Altar, standing before God,
saying to the sixth Angel who holds the pipe; free the four Angels bound at the great river
Euphrates. And the four Angels were released based on the hour and day and
month and year, to kill the third part of the people "(Rev. 9.13-15). Here we are
talking about a war against the Ottoman Empire in Europe, in the prophecies of
the “day” is the year (Ezek 4.6, Num 14.34). Means "year" is equal to
360 years, “month” - 30 years, “day”-1 year , "hour" - 15 days.
Total: 391 year and 15 days.
The beginning of the war (as well as most of
the Empire) - July 27, 1449.
Augmentation 391 year and 15 days gives us this August 11, 1840 in 1838,
announced the researcher Hosea Leitch. Thousands of people witnessed this
prophecy exactly executive. August 11, 1840 Sultan was forced to ask for help -
military protection - from the Egyptian
Pasha Muhammad Ali on a dependency of Britain, Russia, Austria and Prussia. On
the same day Pasha has received an ultimatum in Alexandria
Another example. In "Is 45.1-2"
predicted not only the taking of Babylon, but the way it is and even the
name of the person who will do it - Cyrus - for 150 years prior to his
birthday! In 539 BC Cyrus led the water of the Euphrates,
which protect the town, in the burroved of his warriors new direction, and entered
the city through the unlocked gate that King Belshazzar did not even ordered by
- tile, seeing that the Persians were preparing to storm the building.
In the Bible you can find dozens of such
examples. But back to the creature.
3.2. The seventh day - "round seal"
on the creation
"It made the heavens and the Earth and
all their host" (Gen 2.1). What God created, it was "very good"
(Gen 1.31), was superb. The Lord wanted to made Them reasonable creatures
always remembered his love, which is written on each of its creation (Deut
32.3-4). So at the end of creation he made something: "And God to the seventh day of Its case, which he did, and he rested
on the seventh day from
all his work "(Gen 2.2).
Many actions of God at first glance seem
incomprehensible. "Don't you ever heard, that eternal Lord God ... do not
get tired or weak? " (Is 40.28).
Then why He rested?
God had no need to rest, but he knew that made Them creatures will have
such a need, because He slept in that day and called it Saturday (Heb.
"Shabbat (שבת) - rest, cessation of work), this
for the benefit and happiness of man - century
(Mark 2.27, Is 58.13-14).
"And God blessed the seventh day and
hallowed it" (v. 3). God made two more action:
a) Blessed
(Heb. «bareh») - it's the Russian word can be divided into two parts,
and
This means that God himself announced the
Adam and eve of this day as a day of special, not like the other six days of the week.
b) Sanctified
(Heb. "akadesh" ) - this word means "set apart", and
"Saint" is not the same as the others and is intended for a specific
purpose.
So, God called the seventh day of the day of
rest (Sabbath), allocated among the other days and gave him a special purpose.
The remembrance of God's creation is so
important that not only committed in Eden, but on the new Earth will never (Is
66.22-23).
No. 156
Memorable God made miracles
His right hand in the world created.
When our Creator created everything in six
days,
In the seventh day – Saturday - from all
rested.
Monument to the great God,
Monument of creation that he created.
The seventh day is the Sabbath, he separated
Himself
And he blessed him, and sanctified.
V.T.
