fair enough. and as i said before: the Bible does not contain the Periodic Table nor does it have a sketch of the human anatomy or a detailing of the human genome. It’s not meant to be a science journal, but it’s meant to reveal Jesus Christ, save your soul, prepare you for eternity, and allow you to have a relationship with the Creator of the Universe.
However it is not just on those few scientific statements that I trust the Bible—but archeological, historical, and literary evidence. Click the original link and check it out. If you don’t agree, then you don’t. But at least it’s some food for thought. :)
Thank you for your response!
Great posting! I think it’s important to state that, although the Bible is not on book about science, whenever it touches upon scientific areas, it is accurate.
The bible does not mention the human genome but it does say that blood is the source of life for animals and man. Lev. 17:11. Also, that the flesh of species are different from each other. 1 Corinthians 15:39 All flesh is not the same: Human beings have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another and fish another. Maybe 50 or 60 years agao, if you hit someone with your car and drove away with flesh and blood on your car bumper, you could say you hit a deer and nobody had a way to know. Now they can.
The Bible has many such instances that state truths not known to men when it was written. God said he would speak to them things that were unknown or had not happened so that when they came to pass, we would know that the true God had spoken.
Moonman,
Do you ignore all references to science that do not include the periodic table of the elements? Perhaps you ignore all sources that predate the periodic table of elements.
Do you find that limits your research material?
