The natural world comes from The Supernatural God.
Give me a minute to explain.
Did you know it takes all of your over 600 muscles plus your brain to make your body run? The human body plan explained by exercise scientists is fascinating!
Did you know that the stealth fighter-bomber design was patterned after the peregrine falcon? Compare the images of both jet and bird side by side. The detailed movements of the man-made plane are constantly adjusted by a computer. The bird, of course, was designed with a built-in flight adjuster! “Mother nature” is not the origin of how creation works.
Do you know how bird feathers get their color? According to Cornell ornithologists the answer is “biology and physics.” Us theologians would say, “Your physics depends on the metaphysics of beauty where we give God glory for His design.”
The creation is dependent upon The Personal, Eternal, Triune Creator of the Bible.
Thanks for spending this minute with me, Dr. Mark Eckel.
“Give Me a Minute” is an ongoing effort to simply, clearly, and quickly explain aspects of true Truth.
Gratitude, as always, to my longtime friend, videographer, and tech guru Josh for his continued service.
