Since 1988 scientist have been trying to duplicate evolution in a lab. Read what happens.11/8/2017 In 1988, Dr. Richard Lenski, an evolutionary biologist at Michigan State University, began growing cultures of 12 identical lines of a strain of bacteria. More than 50,000 generations and 27 years later, the experiment continues. After this many years and thousands of generations there have been slight changes as they have life easy in the laboratory setting. For example, some lines have lost the ability to use a sugar, repair DNA, or even move. In other words, they have gotten lazy. But these changes simply altered genetic information and functions that were already present. These changes did not add new genetic information that over millions of years could lead from microbes to man. Why did Dr. Lenski choose bacteria for his test subject? Because bacteria are single cells, changes need to occur in only one cell to be passed to the next generation. In multicellular organisms, changes would have to occur in multiple cells of a given tissue or organ to benefit the organism and reappear in a germ cell (sperm or egg) to be passed to the next generation. If you can’t duplicate evolution with bacteria, you can’t duplicate evolution. Dr. Lenski failed to prove to the world that evolution can even be possible, even in a lab setting. Bacteria has always and will always be bacteria. You alone are the Lord. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything and the multitudes of heaven worship you. Nehemiah 9:6 The Bible is God’s Word, written by men by inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The writers wrote in their own style reflecting their own personalities, but what is written is exactly what God wanted to say. Men wrote the Bible and miraculously the words in the Bible ended up to be the words of God himself. Do we understand fully on how this was accomplished? No. Do we know that this book is the Word of God? Yes. Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation. For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:20-21 Consider this: the Bible was written over a period of about 1,500 years by more than 40 different authors. The Bible was written on three continents, Africa, Asia and Europe, and in three different languages, Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. Yet, the Bible is a unity. From beginning to end, we are told of the plan of God’s salvation for mankind. Look at these compelling evidences for the Bible being the Words of God. Many people in the ancient world thought that the earth rested on the back of some animal or held up by a giant. But Job through the revelation of God thought otherwise. He spreads out the northern skies over empty space; he suspends the earth over nothing. Job 26:7 Matthew Maury was born in 1806 and is considered the father of oceanography. He read this Bible verse. The birds of the air and the fish of the sea and whatever passes through the paths of the seas. Psalms 8:8 Matthew then said, “If God said there are paths in the sea, I am going to find them.” Matthew Maury discovered the warm and cold continental currents 2,800 years after God’s Word stated they were there. The Bible tells us of a ‘cycle’ of air currents 2,000 years before scientists found them. The wind blows to the south and turns to the north; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. Ecclesiastes 1:6 We know now that air around the earth turns in huge circles, clockwise in one hemisphere and counterclockwise in the other. |
