The Bible begins with these words, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” There are many people in the world who do not believe that statement. Some say God does not exist, and therefore, the Bible cannot be His Word. Some may even argue that the Bible is not scientifically accurate and therefore has no merit. However, whenever the Bible makes a statement relating to a scientific principle, it is completely accurate. Let us notice some examples of the harmony between science and the Bible.

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”…

During our recent study of I Samuel, we noticed how Eli’s sons did not know the Lord (2:12). We also saw that Samuel’s sons, Joel and Abijah, did not walk in their father’s way (8:3). The question then becomes why? Were Eli and Samuel not the father they ought to be? Were they raised right and yet still not faithful to the Lord? What caused them to stray from God? 

These questions are very similar questions we see today. When you look at couples who are very strong and faithful to God, yet their children are not, we begin to wonder what happened to cause them…

As I sit here holding my newborn baby there are many thoughts and emotions that constantly run through my mind. First of all, of course, there is the joy and excitement that comes from this occasion. Being able to look into his little eyes and see the purity of his heart. Being able to look at him and know that he is truly a blessing from God, a creature that was made in His own image (Gen. 1:26). I also, however, can’t help but have some thoughts of fear.

Tuesday, March 3, 2020, is a day that will be forever etched in our collective memory. Around 2:00 a.m., in the darkness of the night, mother nature unleashed her wrath as an EF-4 tornado touched down and ran for several miles along Highway 70 through Putnam County. This terrible storm left so much tragedy in its wake.
