- DNA is quite literally God’s language of biological information.
- DNA is by far the most complex information storage medium known on Planet Earth. It is completely supernatural and miraculous!
- DNA is God’s blueprint of every single cell of the 100 trillion cells in our bodies!
- Your body is made of 100 trillion cells, each containing DNA, the most complex genetic code in the universe.
- Each cell has 3 billion genetic codes to ensure that each cell is correctly manufactured.
- Each cell in your body has an estimated 6 to 8 feet of DNA.
- Each of your 100 trillion cells contains a strand of DNA, which has all of the biological information for that one cell!
- If you stretched out one strand of DNA it would be over six feet long!
- Within each cell, encoded in the DNA, are exact instructions to build all the proteins in our bodies!
- These proteins are used to make skin cells, eye cells, brain cells, heart cells. liver cells, blood cells, etc!
GOD has put HIS NAME in the DNA of every single cell of our bodies!
Dr Isaiah Rubinstein is a scientist at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Jerusalem.
He made the following discovery:
- The DNA molecule appears as a double helix, looking like a spiral staircase.
- There are sulfuric bridges which keep the two DNA strands attached together.
3. Every 10 acids, there is a bridge
4. Every 5 acids, there is a bridge
5. Every 6 acids, there is a bridge
6. Every 5 acids, there is a bridge
7. This is a repeating pattern in the DNA double helix spiral.
8. The 10 – 5 – 6 – 5 repeating positions of the sulphuric bridges within DNA are extremely important!
9. The Hebrew Alphabet has 22 letters:
- The code 10 – 5 – 6 – 5 repeating, in DNA correspond to the Hebrew Name of God, YHWH
- This means the GOD has written HIS NAME, YHWH, on the DNA of every single cell of every single human body on Planet Earth!
- GOD has actually signed HIS NAME in the same way as a famous artist autographs his painting!
- There are 3 billion genetic codes in every single human cell!
A human brain cell
- In a human cell it takes three billion (3,000,000,000) of those codes to represents a correct copy of each cell!
- And we all have 100 trillion cells!
- This is too fantastic for our simple minds to understand!
- We do not live in a natural world!
- We are all supernaturally created by the highest intelligence in the universe – His Name is Jesus Christ!
Psalm 139:14
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made”
The Average Human Adult
The average 11 stone adult human body contains approximately 70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,00 atoms and is composed of 60 chemical elements.
- There are about 88 chemical elements in the earth of planet earth.
- Almost 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of the six elements oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.
- The average adult is made up of 100 trillion cells.
- We are about 70 percent water.
- A person can live without food for up to 40 days, but only about 3- 7 days without water, 4-8 minutes without air.
The Human Cell
- We all have about 100 trillion living cells
- We make about 200 million cells per minute, or 300 billion new cells per day
- These 100 trillion cells in our bodies, are all programmed by the genetic code, DNA, within each cell.
- There are 3 billion different genetic codes in every single human cell!
- In the whole body there 10 with 18 zeros after it genetic codes – this is more than the number of seconds in 20 billion years!
Christians often say “I wish I could see a miracle!”
We are all miracles, created by God.
Although people talk about the natural world, there is no such thing in real life.
Everything is supernatural, and nothing is natural, or formed by chance in the primordial slime!
All living humans, animals, birds, fish, insects, and plants are all created by God!
We need to change the way we look at our world, which is what this article is all about!
We need to understand DNA, and God’s miraculous design system!
Design systems. How are things designed?
Here is a spitfire, which was made famous in the Battle of Britain in 1940
The spitfire was famously designed by R.J.Mitchell.
The spitfire was famously powered by a Rolls Royce Merlin engine:
Of course, these are only very simplified plans, and the actual spitfires were made in spitfire factories!
Over 20,000 spitfire planes were made in special factories!
One of the problems was that when they crashed, they could not repair themselves!
Unlike spitfires, our entire human body comes from one single fertilised egg!
Over 9 month this single cell develops into a new born baby
I had a segmental fracture of the tibia in a road traffic accident in 2011.
My own 11 fractures mended correctly because all bone cells, called osteoblasts and osteoclasts, have been programmed by God in their DNA to mend properly!
Jesus Christ designed our human bodies, using DNA
Psalm 139:14
I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made
DNA is quite literally God’s language of biological information.
DNA is God’s blueprint of every single cell of the 100 trillion cells in our bodies!
Within each cell, encoded in the DNA are the exact instructions to build all the proteins in our bodies!
These proteins are used to make skin cells, eye cells, brain cells, heart cells, liver cells, blood cells etc!
President Clinton’s speech about DNA, June 26th 2000
President Clinton: “Today, we are learning the language in which God created life. We are gaining ever more awe for the complexity, the beauty, the wonder of God’s most divine and sacred gift”
The Molecular Structure of DNA
Inside the 100 trillion cells in your body resides the famous double helix, known as DNA.
DNA is God’s biological information system, the single most amazing information system in the universe!
It is incredibly complex, and yet amazingly compact!
Each of your 100 trillion cells contains a strand of DNA, which has all of the biological information for that one cell!
DNA is vastly more complex than all of the supercomputers at NASA, together!
A teaspoon of DNA
I want you to imagine a teaspoon of DNA!
How much genetic information could that teaspoon of DNA hold?
That teaspoon of DNA could hold the precise assembly instructions for all of the proteins for all of the 1000 million species of animals that have ever existed, and still have enough storage information to store all of the information in every book ever written!
This design system can only come from a Super-Intelligence, whose name is Jesus Christ
Life did not arrive by chance in the primordial slime!
Surely you did not expect the spitfires to design and manufacture themselves?
According to the Theory of Evolution the Earth is 4.6 billion years old, and early life forms, containing DNA, arose, by chance, in the primordial ooze, 3.8 billion years ago!
I don’t think so!
The molecular structure of DNA
Francis Crick and James Watson
The molecular structure of DNA was discovered in 1953 by Francis Crick and James Watson, who both later received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine:
“For their discoveries concerning the molecular structure of nucleic acids and its significance for information transfer in living material”
DNA is a nucleic acid containing the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms, except RNA viruses.
The DNA segments carrying this genetic information are called genes, which are essential for all known forms of life!
……………
Scientists recently mapped the Human Genome
The Human Genome Project was completed in 2003.
It was a 13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Institutes of health.
Some of the many goals were to
- Identify all the approximately 25,000 genes in human DNA,
- Determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA,
Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine
DNA contains the four chemicals,
Adenine,
Thymine,
Cytosine
Guanine.
Which I will abbreviate as A, T, C and G.
These are the letters of the DNA alphabet.
A, T, C and G encode all information necessary for life.
Bacteria contain DNA
It takes five hundred thousand A’s, or C’s, or T’s, or G’s to give the biological code for one tiny living bacteria, which are not simple, as we are taught by the Evolutionists!
Bacteria contain DNA – the most complex storage system in the universe!
A human cell requires 3 billion of these letters in every single human cell!
A human brain cell
In every single human cell it takes three billion (3,000,000,000) of those letters to represent the biological information for each cell in our bodies!
And there is one particular and individual DNA encoded genetic message, containing three billion letter codes, inside every cell in your body!
Our computer systems are primitive compared with DNA!
A computer code
This is how every computer on planet earth is encoded – a series of ones and zeros.
This is how chromosome 17 is encoded!
You cannot really see it in the image above, but DNA is the most complex geometric code on Planet Earth, designed by God Himself!
How did Jesus Christ create you and me?
Embryonic development
You and I were formed in our mother’s womb, from one single fertilized egg, containing DNA, and all the genetic and biological information to form you and me over 9 months!
At conception you and I received:
- Our spirit created by God
The spirit of a baby (Kirlian photography)
- Our DNA designed by God
There is no need to look for a miracle – we are all miracles of creation and design!
Psalm 139:14
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made”
We do not live in a natural world!
We are all supernaturally created by the highest intelligence in the universe – his name is Jesus Christ!
The miracle of DNA and Human Life
John 1:1-4
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
Jesus Christ was there at the beginning, and he is the author of life itself!
Michelangelo’s “Creation of Man” in the Sistine chapel
Actually, it was not like this at all! Michelangelo should have read his Bible!
Let us look at the creation of Adam on day six in the Bible!
Genesis 1:26-27
Then God said, “let us make man in our image, according to our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
So God created man in His Own Image; in the Image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
In the New Testament we learn that God is a Spirit
John 4:24
God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth
So, in Genesis 1, God made the spirits of Adam and Eve, in his exact likeness.
The spirits of Adam and Eve
This is actually Kirlian photography, which actually photographs the energy fields of all living humans, animals and plants.
So Adam and Eve were originally spirits, created in the exact likeness of God!
…………………………
God is not a human being, although Jesus Christ, who pre-existed Abraham, became a human being for 33 years.
In john 8:58, Jesus said;
“Before Abraham was, I am”
……………….
What is a Human Being?
A human being is something made of 60 elements found in the earth, with a spirit living in it!
The average 70 kg adult human body contains approximately 70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms and is composed of 60 chemical elements.
There are about 88 chemical elements in the earth of planet earth.
Almost 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of the six elements oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.
The Creation of Adam
Genesis 2:7
“The LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.”
So, what really happened?
The LORD God (that is Jesus Christ) took the 60 elements from the dust of the ground, and formed Adam’s body using DNA.
The word “dust” in Genesis Chapter 2, comes from the Hebrew word “aphar”. The meaning of “aphar” is: dry earth, dust, powder, ashes, earth, ground,
The word “ground” in Genesis Chapter 2, comes from the Hebrew word “Adamah” The meaning of “Adamah is: ground, land.
Genesis 2:7
“The LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.”
The name Adam
“Ground” and “blood” in Hebrew all have the same root word “dam”.
- “Adam” means human – specifically the kind deriving from the earth.
- “Adamah” means ground or earth
- “Dam” means blood.
So – in the original Hebrew, a translation of the word “Adam” would be:
“Human, from the earth, containing blood”.
So, when Jesus breathed the spirit of Adam into “human, from the earth containing blood”, man became a living being.
Everything is supernatural, and nothing is natural, or formed by chance in the primordial slime!
All living humans, animals, birds, fish, insects, and plants are all created by God!
The Creation of Eve
Eve was created differently, using a DNA tissue transplant!
Jesus Christ then performed the very first tissue transplant from Adam to create Eve!
Tissue transplant
Genesis 2:21-22
“The Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man he made into a woman, and he brought her to the man.”
What exactly happened when God created Eve?
Jesus Christ took a specimen of Adam’s living tissue, and created Eve, probably using Adam’s flesh with Adam’s DNA as a template.
We are not clear exactly how this happened, but it seems very probable that God modified Adam’s DNA to create a woman (a man with a womb).
Please note that only God can successfully modify DNA! In medicine we see DNA modification all the time, and it usually results in disease, especially cancer, and death!
The translation “rib” is probably incorrect. All men and women have 12 ribs each! The word used here is the Hebrew word “tsela“.
“Tsela” can mean a rib, but by far the commonest meaning is a “side”. For example, the word “tsela” is used to mean the “side” of the Ark of the Covenant in Exodus 25:14.
Mathematical calculations about DNA “spontaneously generating”
It can be calculated mathematically, using switching theory, that the chance of one DNA molecule occurring randomly is one chance in 10 to the power of 53.
This would be written as ten with fifty-three zeros after it. The scientific community discounts any “chance” greater than one chance in 10 to the power of 50.
In other words, DNA could not possibly have evolved by “spontaneous generation”.
Calculations by Sir Fred Hoyle, UK Nobel prize winner
Sir Fred Hoyle
“A super intellect has monkeyed with physics, as well as with chemistry and biology.
The likelihood of the formation of life from inanimate matter is one to a number of 10 with 40 thousand noughts (zeros) after it.
It is enough to bury Darwin and the whole Theory of Evolution.
There was no primeval soup, neither on this planet nor on any other, and if the beginnings of life were not random, they must therefore have been the product of a purposeful intelligence,”
(Nature: vol.294:105, Nov 12 1981).
This huge number needs to be put in perspective
Atoms in the universe
The number of atoms in the universe is considered to be 10 with 77 zeros after it.
The number of seconds in 20 billion years is 10 with 17 zeros after it.
These huge figures are very difficult for us to imagine.
But Sir Fred Hoyle’s figure of 10 with 40,000 zeros after it is impossible for us to imagine.
DNA is completely supernatural, and could never have happened by chance!
Information systems and Messenger RNA (mRNA)
In the cell, messages are sent from DNA to the periphery of the cell, using mRNA, to create proteins, of which we are all made.
Messenger RNA (mRNA)
Evolutionists would like us to believe that:
- The “message sender” (DNA) and the “message receiver” (mRNA) both spontaneously evolved, by chance.
- The message sender” (DNA) and the “message receiver” (mRNA) instantaneously communicated with each other.
This is completely impossible!
Let us use two mobile phones as an illustration.
Mobile phones use much simpler technology than DNA and mRNA.
If two separate cellular phones were able to spontaneously self-generate, one in London, the other in Melbourne, I think we could all agree that they would not be able to immediately communicate with each other.
Only if appropriate paid-up sim cards from an external mobile phone network were inserted into both cellular phones could they communicate with each other.
In other words, no manufactured system can communicate with another manufactured system unless they are programmed by an outside agency.
The two mobile phones would only be able to communicate with each other when an outside agency, of greater technological expertise, programmed all the cellular phones to identical frequencies, using identical computer languages.
In the case of DNA, God, and only God, has programmed DNA and mRNA to understand each other.
Chirality of all molecules and all proteins in living systems
Right hand twist DNA
It is well known that DNA and mRNA exist as a helix with a twist to their complicated geometric structures.
The nature of the twist is known technically as the “chirality” of the molecule.
DNA and mRNA all exist in the right-hand form only. They are known as dextrorotatory
The amino acids in all living systems are in the left-hand form. They are laevorotatory.
Bucket of DNA
Let us suppose, for a moment, that DNA “spontaneously generated by chance from the primordial ooze”
This mixture would contain equal proportions of left-handed and right-handed forms of DNA!
This is technically called a racemic mixture of left-handed and right- handed forms.
If this spontaneous generation is supposed to have occurred by chance, then, according to the laws of probability, there would have to be an equal amount of left-handed and right-handed forms of DNA.
However, this racemic mixture would be useless for life!
All DNA used in all living organisms is right-handed, or dextrorotatory.
A mixture of self-generated DNA containing an equal amount of left-handed and right-handed forms of DNA would be completely useless for life!
There are totally insuperable problems for evolutionists
- Using switching theory, and also according to Sir Fred Hoyle, it is not possible, statistically speaking, for DNA and mRNA to spontaneously evolve.
- Even if spontaneous evolution were possible, DNA and mRNA would not be able to communicate with each other!
- A self-generated racemic mixture of DNA is completely useless for life!
However, the problem with Evolution is that it is an atheistic, humanistic unproven theory.
Thinking man
This programme is not about anatomy, biochemistry and physiology, but about your thinking!
I am trying to help you to think correctly, that you are a miracle, created in the Image of God, with a miraculous self-correcting genetic code built into each of your one trillion cells!
Molecular science
A human cell
Professor James Tour
James Tour is Professor of Chemistry at Rice University, Texas.
- He is a worldwide authority on nanoscale science and technology.
- His work featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and Science Magazine.
- He has lectured at all the leading universities and ivy league schools.
- He also teaches Sunday School at West University Baptist church in Houston.
- He is a leading authority on new research in nanoscience,
- He recently spoke at Calvary Fellowship church in Clear Lake:
“I build molecules for a living. I can’t begin to tell you how difficult that job is.
I stand in awe of God because of what He has done through His Creation.
My faith has been increased through my research.
Only a rookie who knows nothing about science would say science takes away from faith.
If you really study science, it will bring you closer to God.
There are so many casualties in the Christian faith.
So many fall away or become ineffective.
The only way to stay strong is to stay in the Scriptures.
It brings life and draws us closer to Jesus.”
………………..
When Charles Darwin wrote his book, in 1859, he did not have the advantage of molecular science.
Charles Darwin wrote his book, “The Origin of the Species” in 1859.
Charles Darwin’s main hypothesis was that evolution happens very slowly by natural selection.
Later evolutionists then proposed GENE MUTATION as the mechanism of evolution between one species and another species.
However, Gene mutation, does not and cannot cause one species of animal, bird or fish change into another animal, bird or fish.
Gene mutation
Mutation in the DNA code within every cell of every living organism is commonly observed by doctors all over the world, including me!
In real life, doctors frequently see ‘Gene Mutation caused by:
- Radiation
- Chemicals
- Disease
All actual observed gene mutations cause disease, malformation, or death!
Examples of these include:
- Down’s syndrome.
- Spina bifida.
- Anencephaly (absent head).
- Foetal abnormalities caused by drugs such as thalidomide.
- Cancer following the nuclear explosion in Chernobyl.
- Cancer following the nuclear explosions in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Conclusion: Gene Mutation, as proposed by evolutionists, according to actual observation does not lead to the development of a new gene pool, and does not lead to a new species.
………………..
DNA is programmed by God to repair itself!
DNA self-repair
In fact, DNA is so cleverly and supernaturally designed that it actually repairs itself, every day, in every cell of our body!
In human cells, there are up to 1 million individual DNA molecular lesions per cell per day!
There are 100 trillion cells in the human body!
In each human body, there are therefore 10 to the power of 18 DNA defects every single day, but they are all self-corrected!
What does 10 to the power of 18 look like?
The number of seconds in 20 billion years is 10 with 17 zeros after it.
Let us now look at real science – in other words what top world molecular biologists actually observe!
- DNA damage happens all the time!
- DNA damage results in multiple broken chromosomes
Broken chromosomes
DNA repair is a well-documented repair process, which God purposely inserted into each human cell!
This process identifies and corrects damage to the DNA molecules that encode its genome.
In human cells various factors can cause DNA damage:
- Normal metabolic activities
- UV light and radiation
These result in as many as 1 million individual molecular lesions per cell per day.
Many of these lesions cause
- Structural damage to the DNA molecule
- Impair the cell’s ability to transcribe the gene
We live in a toxic world, with radiation, disease, and chemicals, all trying to disrupt our DNA!
However, God has purposely programmed our DNA to repair itself trillions of times every day!
Actual repair of DNA
DNA ligase is an enzyme that repairs chromosomal damage.
Example of domestic mice with impaired DNA
Domestic mice with genetic deficiencies in DNA repair often show
- Decreased life span
- Increased incidence of cancer
- Increased infections
- Premature aging
A cell with permanent irreversible DNA damage will enter one of three possible states:
- Dormancy
- Cell death
- Cancer (unregulated cell division)
Important conclusion
Mutant genes do not cause macro-evolution – they cause illness, abnormalities such a Spina Bifida, or death!
This is light years away from the gene mutation theory leading to macro-evolution, as proposed by evolutionists!
Life did not arrive by chance in the primordial slime!
According to the Theory of Evolution the Earth is 4.6 billion years old, and early life forms arose, by chance, in the primordial ooze, 3.8 billion years ago!
An alternative definition of Atheism
The belief that there was once absolutely nothing at all.
Nothing happened to the nothing until the nothing magically exploded, for no reason, creating everything, everywhere!
Then a bunch of exploded nothing rearranged itself into all the plants, fish, birds, and animals.
The animals, which came from nothing, included apes!
The apes magically changed into everyone, including you and me.
…………………….
Jesus Christ said:
“I am the way and the truth and the life” John 14:6
“Thy Word is truth” John17:17
In the Old Testament we learn:
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is an eternal God,
The Creator of the whole earth.
He does not get tired or weary;
There is no limit to His wisdom. Isaiah 40:28
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Genesis 1:1
Psalm 139:14
I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made
Conclusion: As we look honestly at the miracle of DNA, we must conclude that only a Supernatural Intelligence created DNA, and His Name is Jesus Christ
