00:21 Hello. My name is Eric Garloff, a teacher
00:24 once asked her students to make a list of what 00:26 they thought were the seven wonders 00:28 of the world. They listed things like 00:30 Chichen Itza in Mexico, the Taj Mahal in India, 00:34 the Grand Canyon in the United States, 00:37 Petra in Jordan, the Roman Colosseum in Italy, 00:40 the Great Wall of China, and Machu Picchu in Peru. 00:45 When collecting the papers, however, the 00:47 teacher noticed that one student seemed to be 00:48 having some difficulty. When she questioned 00:51 the student. She said that she didn't know 00:52 which to pick because there were so many. 00:55 The teacher replied why don't you read to us 00:57 what you have so far and we will see if we can 01:00 help you with your list. Her seven wonders 01:02 were to see the beauty of creation, to hear the 01:06 sounds of nature, to feel the deepest emotions, 01:11 to touch and hold the baby, to taste the 01:14 sweetness of fruit, to love one another, 01:17 but the greatest wonder she said was God 01:19 sending his only son to die for us that we 01:22 might live with him. When she finished 01:24 the room was so quite, she could hear a pin drop. 01:28 She went on to say the most important 01:30 wonders in the world are not built by man nor 01:33 are they purchased with money. 01:35 The most important wonders are the 01:36 gifts of God. You know, friend this young girl 01:40 had it right, all the other students were 01:42 looking at what man had built or in the case of 01:45 the Grand Canyon a natural formation, 01:47 but this girl saw the greatest wonder 01:50 in the gift of Jesus, who came to this earth 01:52 in order to bring new life to mankind. 01:55 Let's go right into our topic now. Title, 01:57 Building Blocks of Creation. First, 02:00 we will take a look at some of the 02:01 definitions, which describe the basic 02:04 materials used by God in the creation of 02:06 matter in life. The atom is the smallest unit 02:10 of an element, which retains the chemical 02:13 properties of that element. 02:15 When two or more atoms combine in the 02:17 definite arrangement and/or held together 02:20 by chemical bonds they form Molecules. 02:23 When molecules combine in specific 02:25 bonded patterns they form Amino Acids. 02:29 When Amino Acids combine in specific 02:31 patterns they form proteins, which are 02:34 essential parts of organisms that 02:36 participate in every process within living cells. 02:41 Atoms once again are the basic unit of 02:43 matter. Atoms combine to form molecules. 02:45 Molecules combine to form Amino Acids 02:47 and Amino Acids combine to form proteins. 02:51 So, then you might ask yourself what's the 02:53 probability of a single protein forming all 02:55 by itself by random chance. 02:58 Before I answer that, I first like to share 03:00 with you what many consider to be the 03:02 point of impossibility within the realm 03:05 of probability. Concerning probability 03:08 many people consider anything beyond 10 03:11 to the 50th power as an impossibility that's 03:14 a 1 followed by 50 zero's. Let's take a 03:18 closure look at this number putting that 03:20 into perspective. Ten to the third power 03:23 is 1000, ten to the 6th power is 1 million, 03:27 ten to the 9th power is 1 billion, ten to the 03:29 12th power is 1 trillion, jumping down 03:32 now to the bottom of this chart you will 03:34 see that ten to the 48th power is 1 03:36 quindecillion. Therefore ten to the power 03:40 of 50 is 100 quindecillion. 03:43 Now, remember it takes atoms, molecules, 03:46 and amino acids in specific patterns to 03:48 form proteins. The law of probability for 03:52 the self formation of a single protein is 10 03:55 to the 191st power. This shows us how 03:58 utterly impossible it would be for proteins 04:00 to form by themselves. 10 to the 191st power 04:04 equals to 10 to the 50th power plus 04:06 another 141 zero's that's an awfully big 04:09 number, which demonstrates how 04:11 ridiculous it is to believe that proteins 04:13 could form by random chance. 04:15 The complexity of protein structures 04:17 indicates they had to have a creator. 04:21 A quote from Evolution in Crisis 1985 04:23 page 289-291 by Michael Denson states 04:27 "the really significant finding that comes 04:28 to light from comparing the proteins, 04:30 amino acid sequences is that it is impossible 04:34 to arrange them in any sort of evolutionary 04:36 series. There was little doubt that if this 04:39 molecular evidence had been available a 04:41 century ago that the idea of organic 04:44 evolution might never have been 04:45 accepted". Atoms, molecules, amino acids, 04:49 and proteins are the building blocks of 04:52 God's creation. All these were created by 04:54 him and through him they combine to 04:57 produce life. For by him were all things 04:59 created that are in heaven and that are in 05:01 earth visible and invisible and by him all 05:05 things consist. Evolution has claimed that 05:08 because monkeys are similar to us that this 05:10 is somehow proof that we evolved from 05:12 them. However, similarity does not 05:14 relationship, if similarity did prove 05:17 relationship then please tell me. Since a 05:20 housefly and a tomato both have 12 05:22 chromosomes, what's their relationship? 05:24 Did the fly evolve from the tomato or did 05:27 the tomato evolve from the fly. 05:29 If similarity proves relationship. 05:31 Why does an opossum, a redwood tree, 05:34 and a kidney bean, each have 22 chromosomes? 05:37 What's their relationship? 05:39 Did the redwood tree evolve from the 05:41 opossum or that the opossum evolve from 05:43 the kidney bean. A dog and a chicken both 05:46 have 78 chromosomes, but that doesn't prove 05:48 they're related to each other. So, why do 05:51 evolutionists try to tell us that since the 05:54 chimpanzee has 48 chromosomes and 05:56 we have 46, that this somehow makes us 05:59 related? Similarity between species does 06:02 not prove relationship, but it can be used 06:05 to prove a common designer. By the way, 06:08 if evolution was true then it would stand to 06:11 reason that the less complex structures 06:13 would evolve first and the more complex 06:15 structure would evolve from the lower 06:17 forms of life. So, then why is the chimp 06:20 has more chromosomes than the human. 06:23 Talk about turning the tables on 06:25 evolutionary thinking. This would indicate 06:28 that humans develop first having 46 06:31 chromosomes and that the chimp having 06:33 48 chromosomes evolve from us. 06:37 In the October 2004 issue of Scientific 06:40 American, page 62, the following question 06:43 is asked: "If amphibians evolved before 06:47 mammals, why do some amphibians have 06:50 5 times more DNA then some mammals"? 06:54 The answer to this is very simple. 06:55 Macroevolution didn't take place. 06:58 There is no logical progressive continuity 07:00 in the evolution of protein structures or in 07:03 the evolution of chromosomes counts 07:05 or in the amount of DNA between species. 07:08 All living cells on the face of this planet 07:10 give testimony to a God of creation. 07:13 A God, who has perfectly designed this 07:15 vast world of life, which surrounds us 07:17 everyday. If you are not convinced by 07:20 that's simplistic answer then please 07:22 consider this. As more and more 07:24 researchers done, scientists are finding 07:27 that there are greater and greater 07:29 differences between man and chimpanzee 07:31 DNA sequences. When the DNA 07:33 sequences were first compared, 07:36 it was believed the similarity between man 07:38 and chimp was 98.4%, thus leaving a difference 07:41 between man and chimp of only 1.6% within 07:44 the DNA code. This does not prove evolution. 07:48 However, it does indicate that a common 07:51 designer may have used the similar 07:53 blueprint in his creation, but let's 07:56 look at how much difference 1.6% of 07:59 DNA sequencing can really mean. 08:01 Dr. Barney Maddox, a leading genetic 08:03 genome researcher said concerning these 08:05 genetic differences, "Now, the genetic 08:07 difference between human and his nearest 08:09 relative, the chimpanzee, is at least 1.6%. 08:13 That does not sound like much, 08:15 but calculated out, that is a gap of at least 08:18 48,000,000 nucleotides, and a change of 08:21 only 3 nucleotides is fatal to an animal;" 08:24 So, you see a 1.6% difference in the DNA 08:27 code equates the 48,000,000 differences 08:29 nucleotides. Nucleotides are molecules, 08:32 which comprise the structural units of 08:35 RNA and DNA that's a lot of changes 08:37 taking place won't you say? However, 08:40 it doesn't stop there Roy J. Britten of the 08:42 California Institute of Technology did a 08:45 comparison of human and chimp DNA 08:46 also and found more differences then 08:49 previously noted. Britten concluded that 08:51 humans and chimps only share about 95% 08:54 of the same DNA. Going from 1.6% to 5% 08:58 is more then a three-fold increase 09:00 in the differences between human and chimp DNA. 09:04 This means that there are then 150,000,000 09:07 differences in the nucleotides. As time 09:10 goes on, we may learn that the differences 09:11 are even greater than that. Now that we are 09:14 on the topic of DNA, let's look at DNA 09:16 replication. DNA replication produces 09:19 two identical DNA molecules, which have 09:22 been produced from a single, double 09:23 stranded DNA molecule known as the 09:26 double helix. The double helix is unwound 09:29 and each strand acts as a template. 09:31 Bases are matched to replicate the new 09:34 partner strands. Cellular proof-reading 09:36 and error-checking mechanisms ensure 09:39 near perfect fidelity for DNA replication. 09:43 Even with his over simplified explanation 09:45 of DNA replication. You can see the 09:47 tremendous need, where an intelligent 09:49 designer to create the system. Let's go a 09:53 step farther and see how God has 09:54 assembled these buildings blocks of 09:56 creation into a living cell. This is a picture 09:59 of a biological cell. Here you can see, its 10:02 enormous complexity starting from the left 10:05 and working our way clockwise. We can 10:07 see the Mitochondrion, the Centriole, 10:10 the Vacuole, the Cystosol, the Lysosome, 10:14 the Nucleolus, the Nucleus, the Ribosome, 10:17 the Vesicle, the Rough endoplasmic 10:20 reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, 10:23 the Cytoskeleton and finally the smooth 10:25 endoplasmic reticulum. The cell is a structural 10:29 and functional unit of all known living organisms. 10:32 It is the smallest unit of an organism that is 10:34 classified as living and is often called the 10:38 building block of life. Most bacteria 10:41 consist of a single cell. Humans are 10:44 multicellular having an estimated 100 10:46 trillion cells. Now, remember 10 to 50th 10:49 power is considered to be an impossibility, 10:52 yet the cell formation of the single protein 10:54 is calculated to be 10 to the 191st power. 10:58 And the self formation of a single cell 11:00 is calculated to be 10 to the power of 11:02 40,000. These possibilities of probability 11:06 should raise millions of red flags in the 11:07 evolutionary community. As they predict 11:10 the impossibility of the self formation of 11:12 cells. On their own each of these structures 11:15 within the cell are very complex. To get an 11:18 idea of what I mean, let's look at the cells 11:21 membrane. Here is a detail diagram of a 11:24 cells membrane. Once again we start at the 11:27 upper left side of the picture and we see 11:29 the Protein channel used to transport 11:32 protein through the cell membrane to its 11:34 right we see the Globular protein then the 11:38 Glycoprotein, then Carbohydrate, then the 11:42 Hydrophilic Heads and below those heads 11:44 are Hydrophilic Tails. The cells membrane 11:47 is constructed as a Phospholipid Bi-layer. 11:51 On the bottom side you also see the 11:52 Alpha-Helix protein followed by a Surface 11:55 protein, the Filaments of the Cytoskeleton 11:59 and Integral protein, a Peripheral protein, 12:02 the Glycolipid, and Cholesterol. Wow! No 12:06 wonder the statistical changes of a single 12:08 cell forming by itself are impossible. 12:11 In addition to this, there are approximately 12:13 210 known distinct human cell types! 12:16 There are 27 Exocrine secretion epithelial 12:19 cells, 3 Wet stratified barrier epithelial cells, 12:23 12 Keratinizing epithelial cells, 12:26 31 Hormone secreting cells, 4 Metabolism 12:29 and storage cells, 20 Epithelial cells lining 12:32 closed internal body cavities, 6 Kidney cells, 12:35 6 Ciliated cells with propulsive function, 12:38 19 Extracellular matrix secretion cells, 12:41 12 Contractile cells, 20 Blood and immune 12:44 system cells, 19 Sensory transducer cells, 12:48 3 Autonomic neuron cells, 12 Sense organ 12:52 and peripheral neuron cells, 12:54 4 Central nervous system neuron cells, 12:56 2 Lens cells, 2 Pigment cells, 12:58 5 Germ cells, and finally 3 Nurse cells. 13:01 If the odds for one single living cell 13:03 revolve by itself is 10 to the power 40,000 13:06 then I shattered to think what the odds 13:08 would be for 210 different types of cells to form 13:10 all by themselves. What do you think 13:13 and not only that, but to then have those 13:16 cells form themselves into the major 13:18 organs of the body and function as a living 13:20 system. Are you beginning to understand 13:22 how impossible it is for a life to evolve 13:24 from non-life? Just look at the level of 13:27 intelligence and complexity that has gone 13:28 into this very basic building block of life. 13:31 Genesis 1:26-27 says And God said, 13:35 Let us make man in our image, after our 13:37 likeness. So, God created man in his own 13:39 image, male and female He created them. 13:42 Unlike the skeletal structure of a home, 13:45 our skeletal system is a living growing part 13:47 of our body. The typical adult skeleton has 13:50 206 bones, each of which serves a specific 13:53 purpose. A skeleton provides "cages'' to 13:57 protect the delicate organs. It also gives 13:59 muscles something to attach to through the 14:02 tendons. It supports the bodies shape and 14:06 allows for motion. Another function 14:08 of the skeleton is to make red and white 14:10 blood cells. Marrow within the bone 14:12 produce these cells. The primary function 14:15 of our bones, however, is for locomotion. 14:18 Bones allow the muscles of the body to 14:20 move the limbs. The skull contains, 14:22 and protects the brain, along with special 14:25 sense organs for taste, smell, hearing, 14:27 vision, and balance. The skull is constructed 14:31 from 22 bones, 21 of which are fused or 14:34 locked together. The adult back bone 14:36 consist of 26 vertebrae, 12 pairs of ribs 14:39 form a ribcage, which protects the heart, 14:42 lungs, major blood vessels, stomach and liver. 14:46 Let me ask you, could all of these intrically 14:49 connected bones have evolved without 14:50 God creating them. For the purpose in 14:53 which they serve. For by him, where all 14:56 things created that are in heaven and that 14:59 are in earth visible and invisible and by 15:01 him all things consist. Let's move on to the 15:05 eye, shall we. Matthew 6:22 says, 15:07 the eye is the lamp of the body. If your 15:09 eyes are good, your whole body will be 15:11 full of light. It says, eyes are organs that 15:14 detect light! They don't actually produce 15:17 the images we see! Light entering the eye 15:19 is refracted as it passes through the cornea, 15:21 it then passes through the Pupil controlled 15:25 by the Iris and is further refracted 15:27 by the Lens. The cornea and lens act 15:30 together as a compound lens to project an 15:32 inverted 2D image onto the retina. 15:34 The detected light signals are then sent 15:37 by the way of the optic nerve to the visual 15:39 area of the brain. The optic nerves from 15:42 both eyes meet, and cross at the optic 15:45 chiasm, at the base of the hypothalamus 15:47 of the brain. The information is then 15:50 combined and splits according to the 15:51 visual field. The visual system now has the 15:54 complex task of reconstructing a 3 15:57 dimensional world from a 2 dimensional 15:59 projection of that world. Together all 16:02 of these parts are necessary for us to see. 16:04 Could all of these parts evolve on their own 16:08 or are they the work of a loving creator God. 16:11 Malachi 2:10 says, Have we not all one 16:13 father? Has not one God created us? 16:17 Now we can consider the ear. Revelation 2:7 says, 16:21 He that has an ear, let him hear what the 16:23 Spirit says unto the churches; To him that 16:25 overcomes will I give to eat of the tree 16:27 of life, which is in the midst of the 16:29 paradise of God. As the eye does not 16:32 produce the image of our sight, likewise, 16:35 the ear does not produce the sound 16:37 of our hearing. It's the brain and central 16:39 nervous system that "hears". 16:40 The ear changes sound pressure waves 16:43 from the outside world into a signal 16:45 of nerve impulses send to the brain. 16:48 The sound waves are perceived by the brain 16:51 through the firing of nerve cells 16:53 in the auditory portion of the central 16:55 nervous system. The outer part of the ear 16:57 collects the sound that sound pressure 17:00 is amplified to the middle portion of the ear 17:03 and it passes from the medium of air 17:04 into the liquid medium. Here are the 3 bones 17:08 of the Middle ear, the Malleus, the Incus 17:10 and the Stapes. The Stapes being the 17:12 smallest bone in the human body. 17:14 These 3 bones working together transfer 17:17 the sound vibrations of the air 17:19 medium, via the ear drum, into the Inner ear liquid medium. 17:24 The liquid filled channels of the 17:26 inner ear contain a sensory epithelium, 17:29 which is studded with hair cells. 17:32 These microscopic hairs are structural 17:34 protein filaments, which project into the fluid 17:38 The hair cells release a chemical 17:40 neurotransmitter when stimulated. 17:43 Sound waves moving through the fluid 17:45 push against the filaments, if the 17:48 filaments bend over enough it causes the 17:50 hair cells to fire. In this way sound waves 17:53 are transformed into nerve impulses. 17:57 There is a drawing from Gray's Anatomy 17:59 that shows the Nerve Fibers on the lower 18:01 left along with the inner ear and outer hair cells. 18:07 The finally tuned delicately balanced ear 18:09 with it's intricate system of hair cell 18:11 neurotransmitters speaks loudly to our 18:14 hearing that the ear could have only come 18:17 from the hand of an intelligent designer. 18:20 For by him were all things created that are 18:23 in heaven and that are in earth. 18:24 Visible and invisible and by him all things 18:28 consist. Now, let's look at the respiratory 18:31 system. Genesis 2:7 says, And the LORD 18:34 God formed man of the dust of the ground, 18:36 and breathed into his nostrils the breath of 18:38 life; and man became a living soul." 18:42 When God breathe into Adam's nostrils, 18:44 the breath of life that breath entered into 18:47 the lungs in order to oxygenate the blood. 18:50 The principle function of the lungs are to 18:52 transport oxygen from the atmosphere into 18:55 the bloodstream and to release carbon dioxide 18:58 from the bloodstream back into the atmosphere. 19:02 The drawing and expulsion of air 19:04 is driven by muscular action. 19:06 The diaphragm in addition to the internal 19:09 intercostal muscles drives ventilation by 19:12 periodically altering the intrathoracic 19:14 volume and pressure By increasing 19:16 volume and thus decreasing pressure, 19:19 air flows into the airways down a pressure 19:22 gradient. By reducing volume and increasing 19:25 pressure, the reverse occurs. 19:28 The exchange of gases is performed in the 19:30 mosaic of specialized cells that form 19:32 millions of tiny, thin-walled air sacs 19:35 called alveoli. A network of capillaries allows 19:38 transportation of the blood over the 19:40 surface of the alveoli. Oxygen from the air 19:44 inside the alveoli diffuses into the bloodstream 19:47 and carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood 19:50 to the alveoli. This is a complex system friends 19:55 A system such as this couldn't have only 19:57 have come from the hand of an intelligent 20:00 designer. Isaiah 42:5 records God as the one. 20:03 who gives breathe onto the people upon 20:06 the earth and Spirit to them that walked 20:08 there in. Moving to the heart now, 20:11 Deuteronomy 4:39 says, Know therefore 20:14 this day, and consider it in your heart, 20:16 that the LORD he is God in heaven above, 20:18 and upon the earth beneath: there is none else. 20:22 The heart is a muscular organ responsible 20:24 for pumping blood through the blood 20:26 vessels by repeated rhythmic contractions. 20:29 The average human heart beating at 20:31 72 beats per minute will beat approximately 20:33 2.5 billion times during a 66-year lifetime. 20:37 The human embryonic heart begins beating 20:39 around 21 days after conception. 20:42 It is unknown how blood in the human 20:44 embryo circulates for the first 21 days in 20:48 the absence of the functioning heart. 20:50 Friends, this is simply another of God's 20:52 awesome miracles. For 21 days, 20:54 he sustains us without a function in heart. 20:57 In Jeremiah 1:5 God said, "Before I 21:00 formed you in the belly, I knew you." 21:03 The function of the right side of the heart 21:05 is to collect deoxygenated blood 21:08 in the right atrium and pump it via the 21:11 right ventricle into the lungs. 21:14 Here carbon dioxide can be dropped off 21:16 and oxygen picked up, this is known as 21:19 gas exchange, which happens through the 21:22 passive process of diffusion. The left side 21:25 collects oxygenated blood from the lungs 21:27 into the left atrium. From there the blood 21:30 moves to the left ventricle, which pumps 21:33 it out to the body. Each day the average 21:36 heart beats 100,000 times and pumps 21:39 about 2000 gallons of blood. 21:42 That's 730,000 gallons per year! 21:45 Over a 75 year lifespan, that's 54.7 Million 21:48 gallons! The Exxon Valdez was 987 feet 21:52 long, 166 feet wide and 88 feet deep. 21:56 It was near capacity when its tragic 21:58 Alaskan accident occurred. It was 22:00 carrying approximately 53 million gallons 22:03 of crude at that time. That's approximately 22:05 how much blood the average human heart 22:07 pumps during its lifetime. There are 22:09 two types of fluids moving through the 22:11 circulatory system, blood and lymph. 22:14 The blood, heart, and blood vessels form 22:17 the cardiovascular system. The lymph, lymph nodes, 22:20 and lymph vessels form the lymphatic system. 22:24 The circulatory system moves nutrients, gases, 22:27 and wastes to and from cells, it helps fight 22:31 disease and help stabilize body 22:33 temperature and PH. An average adult 22:36 contains 5-6 quarts of blood, which consists 22:38 the plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, 22:41 and platelets. The heart and circulatory system 22:44 are so awesome. It simply had to be the 22:48 work of an intelligent designer. For by him 22:50 where all things created that are in heaven 22:53 and that are in earth visible and invisible. 22:55 And by him all things consist. 22:58 Now, consider the digestive system. 22:59 Ecclesiastes 3:13 says, That everyone may 23:02 eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all 23:05 of his toil, this is the gift of God. 23:08 Digestion is the process of the body, 23:10 which breaks down chemicals into smaller 23:12 components that can be absorbed by the blood. 23:16 Mechanical and chemical digestion 23:18 begins in the mouth, where food is chewed 23:21 and mixed with saliva to breakdown the starches. 23:24 The stomach continues to breakdown the food 23:26 mechanically and chemically through the 23:29 churning of the stomach and mixing 23:30 of enzymes. Absorption occurs in the stomach 23:34 and in the gastrointestinal tract. 23:37 The process finishes with excretion to 23:40 eliminate waste. Not only has God designed this 23:43 complicated system to extract nutrients that 23:46 our bodies may live and grow, but he has also 23:48 done it in such a way thus pleasing to our 23:51 taste buds. Revelation 4:11 says, Thou art 23:54 worthy, O Lord, to receive glory 23:56 and honor and power: for thou hast created 23:58 all things, and for thy pleasure they are 24:01 and were created. Now, we would like to 24:04 take a look at the brain. Romans 12:2 says, 24:06 Be not conformed to this world: but be 24:09 transformed by the renewing of your mind, 24:11 that you may prove what is that good, and 24:14 acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 24:16 The brain is the most complex biological 24:18 structure known to man. Our brain controls 24:20 behavior either by activating muscles or 24:23 by causing secretion of chemicals such as 24:25 hormones. It controls all the functions 24:28 within our body. The brain contains 24:31 roughly 100 billion neurons, each linked 24:34 with up to 10,000 synaptic connections. 24:38 These neurons communicate with one another 24:40 through protoplasmic fibers called axons. 24:43 Axons carry signal pulses called action 24:46 potentials to distant parts of the brain 24:48 or body. Axons target the action potential 24:52 signals to specific recipient cells. 24:55 The operations of individual neurons 24:58 and synapses are now understood in 25:00 considerable detail, but the way they 25:02 cooperate in groups of millions has been 25:05 very difficult to decipher. Methods of 25:08 observation such as the EEG recording 25:11 and functional brain imaging tell us that 25:13 the brain operations are highly organized, 25:16 but these methods don't have high enough 25:18 resolution to reveal the activity of 25:20 individual neurons, doesn't it seems strange 25:23 that the very core of mans thinking was 25:26 created by God. But, yet many will do 25:29 everything that they can not to recognize 25:30 his existence and his creative power. 25:33 Romans 1:20 says, For the invisible things 25:37 of him from the creation of the world 25:39 are clearly seen, being understood by the 25:42 things which are made, even his eternal power 25:45 and Godhead; so that they are without excuse. 25:49 Yes, God wants us to examine the things 25:52 he has made and in so doing we will learn 25:54 more about him and his creative power. 25:58 As we near to the close of this program, 25:59 we would like to take a moment and share 26:01 with you this spiritual contemplation. 26:05 Your body is a living temple of God. 26:08 He wants to live in you and walk with you. 26:11 God is our spiritual father and we are his 26:14 sons and daughters. Seeing we have these 26:17 promises, let's purify ourselves from 26:20 everything that contaminates our body 26:22 and spirit doing this for God, who made us 26:26 and gave his life for us. 26:30 Thank you Teresa for sharing that thought 26:32 with us. Ephesians 2:10 says, For we are 26:35 his workmanship created in Christ Jesus 26:38 onto good works, which God had before 26:40 ordained that we should walk in them. 26:43 Friends our time is just about up. So, 26:46 I would like to encourage you to look 26:47 to Jesus not only as your creator, but also 26:50 as your savior. I would like to encourage 26:53 you to walk in good works and share Jesus 26:56 with others. May God bless you 26:58 and you're loved ones. |
