British philosopher, Dr. Antony Flew, was a leading spokesperson for atheism, actively involved in debate after debate. However, scientific discoveries within the last 30 years brought him to a conclusion he could not avoid. In a video interview in December 2004 he stated, “Super-intelligence is the only good explanation for the origin of life and the complexity of nature. Prominent in his conclusion were the discoveries of DNA. Here’s why.
DNA in our cells is very similar to an intricate computer program.
In the same way, DNA is made up of four chemicals, abbreviated as letters A, T, G, and C. Much like the ones and zeros, these letters are arranged in the human cell like this: CGTGTGACTCGCTCCTGAT and so on. The order in which they are arranged instructs the cell’s actions.
What is amazing is that within the tiny space in every cell in your body, this code is three billion letters long!!
To grasp the amount of DNA information in one cell, “a live reading of that code at a rate of three letters per second would take thirty-one years, even if reading continued day and night.” Wait, there’s more.
It has been determined that 99.9% of your DNA is similar to everyone’s genetic makeup.What is uniquely you comes in the fractional difference in how those three billion letters are sequenced in your cells.
The U.S. government is able to identify everyone in our country by the arrangement of a nine-digit social security number. Yet, inside every cell in you is a three-billion-lettered DNA structure that belongs only to you. This code identifies you and continually instructs your cells’ behavior.
You Can See Why DNA Is Important
Dr. Francis Collins, director of the Human Genome Project (that mapped the human DNA structure) said that one can “think of DNA as an instructional script, a software program, sitting in the nucleus of the cell.”
God’s created his creation in wisdom?
👉 In Psalms 104:24 “O LORD, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.
Perry Marshall, an information specialist, comments on the implications of this. “There has never existed a computer program that wasn’t designed…[whether it is] a code, or a program, or a message given through a language, there is always an intelligent mind behind it.”
Intelligent mind found in our DNA :
👉 In 1 Chronicles 28:9″ And you, my son Solomon, acknowledge the God of your father, and serve him with wholehearted devotion and with a willing mind, for the Lord searches every heart and understands every desire and every thought. If you seek him, he will be found by you…”
Our DNA is the evidence that God’s exist :
👉 In Job 19:26 “My flesh may be destroyed, yet from this body I will see God.
Just as former atheist Dr. Antony Flew questioned, it is legitimate to ask oneself regarding this three billion letter code instructing the cell…who wrote this script? Who placed this working code, inside the cell?
When looking at the DNA structure within the human body, we cannot escape the presence of intelligent (incredibly intelligent) design.
The Bible states :
👉 In Job 12:7,9 “But ask the animals, and they will teach you,or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you;…”All of them know that the LORD’s hand made them. —
The DNA molecule is often described as the book of life, as a blueprint for constructing the organism, or as a program for computing the organism.
👉 In Psalms 139:16 “Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.
God made our DNA wonderfully complex and marvelous great:
👉 In Psalms 139:14 “Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
👉 In Psalms 92:5 “How great are your works, O LORD! Your thoughts are very deep!
👉 In Romans 1:19-20 ” Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
