👉 SKYLAB

The Bible states about the crash of skylab in the space .

♉”Though you soar like the eagle and make your nest among the stars, from there I will bring you down,” declares the LORD.–( Obadiah 1:4 )

Skylab was the first space station launched and operated by NASA, occupied for about 24 weeks between May 1973 and February 1974. It was the only space station that the United States has operated exclusively. It fell back to Earth amid worldwide media attention in 1979.

👉 Skylab was made to go up but not to come back down: The space station known as Skylab was designed as an orbiting workshop for research on scientific matters, such as the effects of prolonged weightlessness on the human body. Because the project represented the next step toward wider space exploration, NASA threw itself into successfully putting Skylab in orbit. Unfortunately, the agency spent far less time and energy planning how to gracefully bring the space station back to Earth at the end of its mission. Even though Skylab was devised for just a nine-year lifespan, NASA failed to build in any control or navigation mechanisms to return the orbiter to terra firma. Doing so would have “cost too much,” administrator Robert Frosch said at the time. This lack of preparation presented a problem in late 1978, when NASA engineers discovered the station’s orbit was decaying rapidly. Skylab had become a 77-ton loose cannon. As word spread of the impending uncontrolled crash of the space station, Congress and the public demanded to know how NASA intended to avoid human casualties from the potential disaster. NASA responded with a plan to rehabilitate the laboratory-in-the-sky. The agency would use a new tool in development—the space shuttle—to boost Skylab into a higher orbit, thereby extending the lab’s operational life by about five years. After that, the station would simply continue to orbit as a shell, like the millions of tons of floating detritus now known as space junk. Funding and other snafus delayed the shuttle project, however, so NASA had to come up with a new plan.

Human arrogance reaches the space and his head touched the clouds:

♉”Though his arrogance reaches the heavens, and his head touches the clouds,— ( Job 20:6 )

NASA had to come up with a new plan. On July 11, 1979, with Skylab rapidly descending from space orbit.engineers fired the station’s booster rockets, sending it into a tumble they hoped would bring it down in the Indian Ocean. They were close. While large chunks did go into the ocean, parts of the space station also littered populated areas of western Australia. Fortunately, no one was injured. The imminent crash of Skylab midway through 1979 coincided with Americans’ declining confidence in their government. The stagnant economy and a second oil crisis dropped Congress’ approval rating to just 19 percent that year. Perhaps it’s no surprise, then, that many people took an irreverent view of the demise of Skylab, a government project.

👉 THE BIBLE TEACH THE RIGHT COMBINATION OF FOOD

Some of the laws I can directly see why they were given, however I do not understand the last part of the verse below regarding not boiling a kid in its mothers milk.

The Bible states: Deuteronomy 14:21 NIV “Do not eat anything you find already dead. You may give it to an alien living in any of your towns, and he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. But you are a people holy to the LORD your God. Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.

The risk ! Daily consumption of meat and milk increase the risk of prostate cancer: Men who eat lots of saturated animal fats (red meat such as beef, lamb and pork, and butter, whole milk, ) have an increased risk of getting the disease. Diets high in calcium and dairy protein may also increase the risk of prostate cancer. Why Milk and Meat is a Bad Idea: Milk takes longer to digest due to the protein casein and meat is also rich in other types of protein. A combination can cause havoc for the digestive system overloads our digestive system and it just doesn’t digest well causing constipation and the body not to absorb the nutrients available in the food.

DOUBLE DEAD MEAT IS RISKY TO EAT :

The Bible states double dead meat is risky to eat :

👉 “He must not eat anything found dead or torn by wild animals, and so become unclean through it. I am the LORD.— ( Leviticus 22:8 )

The person who eats its double-dead meat, persons who eat “botcha” will still most likely suffer from diarrhea and vomiting, because they will ingest the bacteria coming from the contaminated pig’s blood.

👉 “You are not to eat any animal that dies naturally;…”– ( Deuteronomy 14:21)

Dr. Lyndon Lee-Suy said that eating double-dead meat is hazardous to health because it may result to stomach ache, diarrhea and even food poisoning.

ABOUT EATING MEAT

Apostle Paul said :

Romans 14:21, ESV: “It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble.

By now, you’ve probably heard that eating meat is bad for you. The World Health Organization made headlines last year when it declared processed meat a “carcinogen” that increases your risk of colon or rectum cancer by 18 percent. But it’s not just processed meat that poses a health risk — science has known for a while that eating all kinds of animals, including “white meat,” is bad for you. Like, really bad. I myself had a vague idea that eating too much meat wasn’t great for my health, but since I used to only eat “a little” meat, and usually organic at that, I sort of thought of myself as exempt. Well, not so much. While cutting back on your meat consumption in any form is a great step to take, the fact remains that eating any meat — hormone-free or not — poses several serious long-term risks to your health. It’s worth knowing exactly what the health risks of eating meat are, so that you can make an informed decision for yourself about how much of a risk you feel it’s necessary to take by continuing to consume animals.

In Proverbs 23:20 “Be not among drunkards or among gluttonous eaters of meat,—

Mounting evidence continues to suggest that eating too much red meat — such as bacon and hot dogs — is linked with health problems. A new study finds that changes in your red-meat-eating habits can be tied to your risk of early death. An increase in red meat consumption of at least half a serving per day was linked with a 10% higher risk of early death in the study, published in the medical journal BMJ on Wednesday. Replacing red meat with other protein sources may help you live longer, the study found.

What is the effect of Incest : The Bible states that God’s forbidden to have sexual relationship to a close relatives or families the cursed of God will be in this people !

In Deuteronomy 27:22 “Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen.

Inbreeding is reproduction from the mating of parents who are closely related genetically.Inbreeding results in increased homozygosity, which can increase the chances of offspring being affected by recessive or deleterious traits. This generally leads to a decreased fitness of a population,which is called inbreeding depression. An individual who results from inbreeding is referred to as inbred. Livestock breeders often practice controlled breeding to eliminate undesirable characteristics within a population, which is also coupled with culling of what is considered unfit offspring, especially when trying to establish a new and desirable trait in the stock. In plant breeding, inbred lines are used as stocks for the creation of hybrid lines to make use of the effects of heterosis. Inbreeding in plants also occurs naturally in the form of self-pollination. Results: Inbreeding may result in a far higher phenotypic expression of deleterious recessive genes within a population than would normally be expected.As a result, first-generation inbred individuals are more likely to show physical and health defects, including: Reduced fertility both in litter size and sperm viability Increased genetic disorders Fluctuating facial asymmetry Lower birth rate Higher infant mortality Slower growth rate Smaller adult size Loss of immune system function Many individuals in the first generation of inbreeding will never live to reproduce. Over time, with isolation such as a population bottleneck caused by purposeful (assortative) breeding or natural environmental factors, the deleterious inherited traits are culled. Island species are often very inbred, as their isolation from the larger group on a mainland allows for natural selection to work upon their population. This type of isolation may result in the formation of race or even speciation, as the inbreeding first removes many deleterious genes, and allows expression of genes that allow a population to adapt to an ecosystem. As the adaptation becomes more pronounced the new species or race radiates from its entrance into the new space, or dies out if it cannot adapt and, most importantly, reproduce. The reduced genetic diversity that results from inbreeding may mean a species may not be able to adapt to changes in environmental conditions. Each individual will have similar immune systems, as immune systems are genetically based. Where a species becomes endangered, the population may fall below a minimum whereby the forced interbreeding between the remaining animals will result in extinction. Natural breedings include inbreeding by necessity, and most animals only migrate when necessary. In many cases, the closest available mate is a mother, sister, grandmother, father, grandfather… In all cases the environment presents stresses to remove those individuals who cannot survive because of illness from the population. There was an assumption that wild populations do not inbreed; this is not what is observed in some cases in the wild. However, in species such as horses, animals in wild or feral conditions often drive off the young of both genders, thought to be a mechanism by which the species instinctively avoids some of the genetic consequences of inbreeding.In general, many mammal species including humanity’s closest primate relatives avoid close inbreeding possibly due to the deleterious effect. Examples: The cheetah was once reduced by disease, habitat restriction, overhunting of prey, and competition from other predators to a very small number of individuals.All cheetahs now come from this very small gene pool. Should a virus appear to which none of the cheetahs has resistance, extinction is always a possibility. Currently, the threatening virus is feline infectious peritonitis, which has a disease rate in domestic cats from 1–5%; in the cheetah population it is ranging between 50% to 60%. The cheetah is also known, in spite of its small gene pool, for few genetic illnesses. In the South American sea lion, there was concern that recent population crashes would reduce genetic diversity. Historical analysis indicated that a population expansion from just two matrilineal lines were responsible for most individuals within the population. Even so, the diversity within the lines allowed for great variation in the gene pool that may help to protect the South American sea lion from extinction. In lions, prides are often followed by related males in bachelor groups. When the dominant male is killed or driven off by one of these bachelors, a father may be replaced with his son. There is no mechanism for preventing inbreeding or to ensure outcrossing. In the prides, most lionesses are related to one another. If there is more than one dominant male, the group of alpha males are usually related. Two lines are then being “line bred”. Also, in some populations such as the Crater lions, it is known that a population bottleneck has occurred. Researchers found far greater genetic heterozygosity than expected.In fact, predators are known for low genetic variance, along with most of the top portion of the tropic levels of an ecosystem.Additionally, the alpha males of two neighboring prides can potentially be from the same litter; one brother may come to acquire leadership over another’s pride, and subsequently mate with his ‘nieces’ or cousins. However, killing another male’s cubs, upon the takeover, allows for the new selected gene complement of the incoming alpha male to prevail over the previous male. There are genetic assays being scheduled for lions to determine their genetic diversity. The preliminary studies show results inconsistent with the outcrossing paradigm based on individual environments of the studied groups. Calculation: Main article: Coefficient of relationship The inbreeding is computed as a percentage of chances for two alleles to be identical by descent. This percentage is called “inbreeding coefficient”. There are several methods to compute this percentage, the two main ways are the path methodand the tabular method. Typical inbreeding coefficient percentages are as follows, assuming no previous inbreeding between any parents: Father/daughter, mother/son or brother/sister → 25% (1⁄4) Grandfather/granddaughter or grandmother/grandson → 12.5% (1⁄8) Half-brother/half-sister → 12.5% (1⁄8) Uncle/niece or aunt/nephew → 12.5% (1⁄8) Great-grandfather/great-granddaughter or great-grandmother/great-grandson → 6.25% (1⁄16) Half-uncle/niece or half-aunt/nephew → 6.25% (1⁄16) First cousins → 6.25% (1⁄16) First cousins once removed or half-first cousins → 3.125% (1⁄32) Second cousins or first cousins twice removed → 1.5625% (1⁄64) Second cousins once removed or half-second cousins → 0.78125% (1⁄128) Third cousins or second cousins twice removed → 0.390625% (1⁄256) Third cousins once removed or half-third cousins → 0.1953125% (1⁄512) An inbreeding calculation may be used to determine the general genetic distance among relatives by multiplying by two, because any progeny would have a 1 in 2 risk of actually inheriting the identical alleles from both parents.For instance, the parent/child or sibling/sibling relationships have 50% identical genetics.

The Bible states about the embryonic development :

In Job 10:10-12 “Did you not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese,clothe me with skin and flesh and knit me together with bones and sinews? You gave me life and showed me kindness, and in your providence watched over my spirit.

Human embryonic development, or human embryogenesis, refers to the development and formation of the human embryo. It is characterised by the process of cell division and cellular differentiation of the embryo that occurs during the early stages of development.

In Beggining God’s formed the universe from nothing:

In Hebrew 11:3 “By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.–

He created heavens ( Universe ) and earth :

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.— ( Genesis 1:1-2 )

The Big Bang Theory is the leading explanation about how the universe began. At its simplest, it says the universe as we know it started with a small singularity, then inflated over the next 13.8 billion years to the cosmos that we know today. Because current instruments don’t allow astronomers to peer back at the universe’s birth, much of what we understand about the Big Bang Theory comes from mathematical formulas and models. Astronomers can, however, see the “echo” of the expansion through a phenomenon known as the cosmic microwave background. In the first second after the universe began, the surrounding temperature was about 10 billion degrees Fahrenheit (5.5 billion Celsius), according to NASA. The cosmos contained a vast array of fundamental particles such as neutrons, electrons and protons. These decayed or combined as the universe got cooler. This early soup would have been impossible to look at, because light could not carry inside of it. “The free electrons would have caused light (photons) to scatter the way sunlight scatters from the water droplets in clouds,” NASA stated. Over time, however, the free electrons met up with nuclei and created neutral atoms. This allowed light to shine through about 380,000 years after the Big Bang.

In Genesis 1:3 “And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.”

This early light — sometimes called the “afterglow” of the Big Bang — is more properly known as the cosmic microwave background (CMB). It was first predicted by Ralph Alpher and other scientists in 1948, but was found only by accident almost 20 years later. Roughly 380,000 years after the Big Bang, matter cooled enough for atoms to form during the era of recombination, resulting in a transparent, electrically neutral gas, according to NASA. This set loose the initial flash of light created during the Big Bang, which is detectable today as cosmic microwave background radiation.

In Jeremiah 32:17 ” Ah, Lord GOD! It is you who have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you.”

👉 God created matter:

In John 1:3 ” Through him ALL THINGS were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. “All things” is made up of matter Matter is everything around you. Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter. Those atoms go on to build the things you see and touch every day. Matter is defined as anything that has mass and takes up space (it has volume).

👉 He created invisible and visible matter.- In Colossians 1:16 “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth,VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.

BIBLE AND THE SCIENCE THE BIBLE IS NOT A BOOK OF SCIENCE:

is a statement often made. If this is interpreted to mean the Bible is above science and therefore should direct science, it is a good statement. Too often it is used to imply the Bible is inferior to science, and given a choice, we should follow the lead of science. We call your attention to Colossians 1:18 where we are told that Christ is to be pre-eminent in all things and Colossians 1:20 where it is stated that Christ reconciles all things in heaven and earth. This indicates that the Bible, as is Christ, its author, is perfect and should be pre-eminent in the sciences as Christ should be central in the life of the scientist. DOUBLE-REVELATION THEORY: This view is held by many neo-evangelicals of today who say God reveals Himself through both the Bible and science, and in a seeming conflict, the Bible must give way to science which is superior.

THE BIBLE IS A BOOK OF SCIENCE.:

Though we can accept the statement that the Bible is not a book of science, being superior to science, we can also claim it is a book of science in that its statements regarding science are amazingly accurate. When we realize the scientific accuracy of the Bible, science can move ahead as it should. When there is change, it is in science, not in the Bible. Let us demonstrate by some examples.

👉 ASTRONOMY A Spherical Earth: Contrary to Bible interpretation of the middle ages that the earth is flat, we find statements suggesting the earth is spherical. Proverbs 8:27 states “When he set a compass upon the face of the depth” and Isaiah 40:22 says “It is he that sitteth above the circle of the earth.” In both instances the Hebrew word “khug” is used, which may be translated to refer to the circle of the horizon, but may also be translated as “spherical.” In Job 22:14 the same word is translated in the King James version as “circuit of the heavens.” An authority on Bible Hebrew, Gesenius, translates this word in Job and Proverbs as “vault of the heavens,” and suggesting that in the Isaiah passage it might refer to the circle of the earth, meaning a spherical earth. Another authority on Bible Hebrew, Brown, translates all three passages as “vault of the heavens.” See Has God Spoken? by A. 0. Schnabel (1965).

👉 Earth Revolves Daily: In the book quoted above, on page 5 Schnabel refers to Job 38:12-14a where the reference is to the earth turning as under a signature ring. G. Rawlinson in Pulpit Commentary and Thomas Robinson in Homiletic Commentary in referring to this passage indicate these rings exude a beauty not present in the clay which is observable only in the daytime. Robinson admits it can be a reference to the earth’s rotation as it is used by Schnabel. Psalm 89:36-37 is another passage used by Schnabel and he begins his explanation by stating that Hebrew poetry consists of parallelism. According to parallelism the moon is a faithful witness in the sky, showing the sun shines also during the night, the moon reflecting the sun’s light. According to Schnabel this is proof of the earth’s turning.

👉 Earth Is Not Supported: Job 26:7 states the earth hangs on nothing. Schnabel points out this demonstrates the earth is held in place by gravitation but is not otherwise supported.

👉 Universe a Continuously Spreading Expanse: Astronomers today are suggesting an expanding universe based on the red shift in the spectrum. The more red indicated in the spectrascope, the faster the object is receding is their contention. According to the red shift, the most distant galaxies and quasers seem to be receding fastest, quasers recede at 149,000 miles per second. Quasers are quasi-stellar objects seemingly as large as our entire solar system. Possibly this is suggested in the Bible. The Hebrew word for “firmament” is “raquia” and in its verb form means “to beat as with a hammer, to spread out” according to Gesenius in his Lexicon.We are reminded of a coppersmith beating out a piece of copper until it becomes a plate. Psalm 104:2 states that God “stretches” (imperfect, continued tense) the heavens as a curtain, and may still be so doing. In Jeremiah 31:37 and 33:22 we are told that we shall never be able to count all the stars. Isaiah 40:22 and 42:5 also speak of the heavens still being stretched out. These references may indicate an expanding universe.

👉 Stars Cannot Be Numbered: According to Jeremiah 31:37 and 33:22 we shall never be able to count all the stars. Abraham could not when God asked him to (Genesis 15:5, 22:17, Hebrews 11:12). In 150 A.D. Ptolemy counted 1,056 stars, claiming the number could not exceed 3,000. Today 500 billion plus are counted with the aid of the huge Mt. Palomar 200-inch light telescope and radio telescopes, and we are still counting. The Bible compares the innumerable stars with the sands on the seashore, and this is about all to which the vast number of stars can be compared.

👉Stars Emitting Sound: The Radio Telescope On page 12 of Has God Spoken? Schnabel states that in 1942 U.S. Army scientists were testing radar equipment at wave-lengths of 400 to 600 centimeters. In February of 1942 their sets received extremely high noises of such density the sets could not be operated. They discovered this was not jamming by the Germans, but high-frequency noises from stars. This is utilized in radio telescopes today, reaching out farther into space than light telescopes. Job 38:7 states “the morning stars sang together.” Gesenius interprets this verb to mean “to make a shrill noise.” This is exactly the sound of noises coming over the radio telescopes. Some have interpreted the word stars in this passage to mean angels, unaware that stars do emit sounds. Others find difficulty in either stars or angels being present when the foundations of the earth were laid. Psalm 104:4 may hint that angels were created on the second day, therefore being present when foundations of the earth were laid on the third day. Though stars were not created until the fourth day, God might have continued laying foundations also on the fourth day.

👉 Ordinances of Heaven: Job also speaks of the “ordinances of heaven” (Job 38:33). Copernicus and Newton suggested that laws of inertia and gravity are holding up the world. If this be true, these laws might be called some of the ordinances of the heavens. Mazzaroth: “Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season?” is asked in Job 38:32. “Mazzaroth” might better be translated “twelve signs of the zodiac” as Harold Clark does in his filmstrip Evolution and the Bible. Clark points out the ancients were unable to explain the changing of these signs each month and that it was Galileo’s discovery of the earth revolving around the sun which provides the explanation.

👉 Binding the Pleiades: We read in Job 38:31 “Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades?” According to Clark “modern astronomy has discovered the fact that the stars of this cluster are actually bound together as if by chains. If their speed could be multiplied a billion times, they would appear like a swarm of bees in a great circle and held in their circuits by unseen forces.” page L 1-9. 👉 Color Beauty of Heavens: Another statement in Job is “God has garnished the heavens” (Job 26:13). A better translation is “God has made the heavens beautiful.” With our newer photographic sensitive plates we now find color in the constellations of the sky we did not know existed, substantiating this statement of Job.

👉 Measuring the Heavens With a Span: In Isaiah 40:12 we read that God “marked off the heavens with a span.” Today we understand the meaning of this “span.” We measure the heavens with light years (the speed of light – 186,000 miles per second, multiplied by the number of seconds in a year, for a total of five trillion and 585 billion, or nearly six trillion). This is 66,000 times the distance from the earth to the sun, calculated at 93,000,000 miles. The heavens seemingly are so vast even this great distance is not enough, so we measure with a parsec which is three and one-half light years.

👉 Earth Made for Habitation: Again we quote from Isaiah 45:18. “He formed it (earth) to be inhabited.” Today we truly understand how the earth is made for habitation.- ( Acts 17:26 ) If it were ten percent larger or smaller, the laws of gravity would prevent our living upon it. If it were ten percent nearer the sun, it would be too hot for our form of life. Were it ten percent farther from the sun, it would be far too cold. At this point there is no real evidence of water outside our earth and we know how basic water is for our form of life.Is there life outside of earth? We do not know. There is as yet no evidence of it. Still there may be. We know only that this earth is remarkably and delicately made for life, as the Bible says it is.The Moon Is Made to Give Light and to Direct SeasonsThis is true of many constellations in the sky. This is stated in Genesis 1:14-18. The moon performs this function well and we set our clocks by the time of the stars.

👉 Glory of God in the Sky: We quote from Job 26:14: “Lo, these are but the outskirts of his ways; and how small whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?” The implication is that the vast glories of space are merely a whisper of the real power of God. Surely, we ought to use space to glorify God and to learn from it the amazing scientific accuracy of His word.

👉 GEOLOGY Foundations of the Earth: Again we refer to A. 0. Schnabel’s book “Has God Spoken?,” pages 15 ff. In Job 38:6 the word for foundation is really “Eden” and is used 53 times in passages such as Exodus 26-40, Numbers 3 and 4 and in Songs 5:15 to mean sockets into which the pillars of the tabernacle were placed. The author indicates that seismography has developed use of the push-wave which will pass through the earth and liquid and the shock-wave which does not pass through liquid. Using these, the characteristics of the inside of the earth can be determined. It is estimated that mantle rock under the sea is two miles thick in places, but under the continents it is estimated at three hundred miles. This would form a veritable socket for each of the seven continents. Again this illustrates how scientifically accurate the word “foundation socket” is in this Job passage and how we are just now beginning to catch up with the science of the Bible.

👉 Mountains Went Up – Valleys Went Down: In Psalm 104:8 (RJSV) we read: “The mountains rose, the valleys sank down.” The third day of creation and the period immediately following the flood were similar in many respects. Both times saw the earth completely covered with water. Both times the mountains went up and the valleys went down. This is suggested in Psalm 104 as the way by which God separated water from land. This happened also following the Flood of Noah, and we can easily conceive that our high mountains may not have existed prior to the Flood. The seas contain enough water to cover the earth to a depth of one and one-half miles. The water is restrained from doing this because according to Psalm 104:9 God has set bounds for the sea that they cannot pass over as during Noah’s flood. (Cf. Frank Marsh Life, Man and Time, page 121). On page 21 of his book Schnabel points out that canyons have been discovered off the Philippine coast which are five times deeper than our Grand Canyon of Arizona. This canyon holds the water.

👉 Entire Earth Under Water: Genesis 1:2 indicates water was everywhere. we read in Genesis 1:9 that dry land appeared out of the water. Genesis 7:20 says that during the flood all high hills and mountains were covered with water fifteen cubits deep and upwards. Psalm 104:6-9 implies that waters stood above the mountains. One of the first geologists to show that all land masses have once been under water was Edward Suess (1885) described on page 19 of “Has God Spoken?Consistently sea fossils are discovered on mountain tops, indicating they once were under water.

👉 All Seas Lie in One Bed: According to Genesis 1:9-10 the waters of the earth were gathered together into one place and this was called seas. On pages 19 and 20 Schnabel states that all seven seas are connected and actually, form one sea.

👉 METEOROLOGY Water-Vapor Circle: In Job 37:27-28 we read: “For he draweth up the drops of water, which distill in rain from his vapor, which the skies pour down upon man abundantly.” Ecclesiastes 1:7 states: “all the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full; unto the place whither the rivers go, together they return again.” Both the Hebrew and English definition of the word distill is to have small moisture droplets of steam or vapor condensate and collect into water drops large enough to become heavy and to fall. Biblical writers understood this cycle which we study scientifically – droplets of steam or vapor condense, fall as rain, rivers empty into the sea from higher ground. From the sea drops of water are drawn up, and the cycle begins once more. See Schnabel.

👉 Air-Circulation: Job 28:25 states that wind has weight. And in Job 37:9 we read: “Out of the chamber of the South cometh the storm and cold out of the scattering wind.” Ecclesiastes 1:6 says: “The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it turneth about continually in its course, and the wind returneth to its circuits.” These Bible statements are substantiated by the fact that warm air rises at the equator because of the heat. Pressure moves it northward where cold air and other pressures cause it to flow downward. Once more it flows southward to warmer regions. This general circulation of air follows exactly as the Books of Job and Ecclesiastes say. See Schnabel Page 26.

👉 Clouds Have Balance: We quote from Job 36:29: “Can any understand the spreadings of the clouds?” and Job 37:16: “Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds?” and Job 38:37: “Who can number the clouds by wisdom?” On page 2717 of his book Schnabel says: “High-altitude airplanes in 1950 noted a high electrical energy flow upward from the top of a thunderstorm to the ionosphere (upper atmosphere). This showed a thundercloud may be considered as a negative electrical pump conveying a negative charge to the earth and a positive charge to the upper atmosphere. It was learned that the ionosphere continually discharged a current of 1800 ampers to the earth over the whole globe. Instrumental warheads on research missiles reveal the total charge of the ionosphere would discharge completely in five minutes. Thunderstorms supply the reverse current necessary to maintain potential between the earth and upper atmosphere. It was estimated to take 1,800 thunderstorms at anyone instant to do this.” The Tiros Weather Satellite indicates there are approximately 1,800 thunderstorms at anyone given time. Again, this is a substantiation of the scientific accuracy of the Bible.

👉 Lightning Causes Rain: Another passage is Job 38:26-27 “the lightning of the thunder causes it to rain.” In 1964 in the Grand Bahama Islands, using Denimetric Radar it was discovered that large drops of water necessary for rain were not present before lightning occurred. Laboratory experiments in 1965 demonstrated that in the presence of an electrical field, water droplets will combine to form raindrops. Schnabel says: “Tiny droplets like those in a cloud shot from a hypodermic needle will simply ricochet off one another under normal conditions. But in the presence of a comb charged with static electricity they combine and become a single large drop.” (page 29)

👉 BIOLOGY Basic Forms of Life: In studying Genesis One we find nine basic forms of life: grasses, trees, herbs, fishes, birds, wild animals, domestic animals, creeping things and man. Darwin writing his first edition of Origin of the Species suggested about nine basic forms of life and that these had developed after a Great Intelligence had begun life. This thought is not found in Darwin’s later editions.In his book Zooegenesis, Austin H. Clark already thirty years ago suggested eight basic forms of life developing independently, and all other forms developing from these eight. This is being accepted in the scientific world today. Richard Goldschmidt is one. Heribert Niellson is another as evidenced by his Synthetische Artbuildungen. Many scientists considering themselves to be evolutionists are accepting the separate development of the basic forms of life. They are catching up with the position of the Bible.

👉 The seed of a plant contains its life: In Genesis 1:11; 29 As stated in the Book of Genesis, we now recognize that inside the humble seed is life itself. Within the seed is a tiny factory of amazing complexity. No scientist can build a synthetic seed and no seed is simple!

👉 Three Biological Kingdoms: Genesis 1 suggests a Plant kingdom (vv. 11-13), an animal kingdom (vv. 20-31) and a Bacteria kingdom (vv. 1-10) Citizens of Babylon, Assyria, Egypt and Greece were not aware of such division of nature. It was Carolus Linnaeus, Swedish botanist, who made this discovery and classified nature as Genesis One does.

👉 Male and Female Each Have Seed of Propagation: Bible passages Genesis 3:15 and Hebrews 7:9-10 suggest that seed for development of offspring is inherent in the female as well as in the male. Only recently has science recognized that both male and female contain the seed for propagation and that both are necessary. (Schnabel page 37)

👉 Animals Reproduce Only After Their Kind: Genesis 1:21 ff relates how God made living things after their kind. Ten times the words “after his kind” are mentioned. Gregor Mendel proved that variety is possible within a kind, but there is no possibility of development from kind to kind. The Bible states that God created life according to kinds (Genesis 1:24). The fact that God distinguishes kinds, agrees with what scientists observe – namely that there are horizontal genetic boundaries beyond which life cannot vary. Life produces after its own kind. Dogs produce dogs, cats produce cats, roses produce roses.(Matthew 7:16) Never have we witnessed one kind changing into another kind as evolution supposes. There are truly natural limits to biological change.

👉 All Flesh Is Not they Same: In 1 Corinthians 15:39 we are told all flesh is not the same. Science once thought it was. Invention of the electron microscope magnifying to two million times, shows an amazing difference between cells. (Schnabel page 40)

👉Waters Swarm With Swarms of Living Creatures: Genesis 1:20 states that waters swarm with swarms of living creatures. Since Leouwenhauk’s invention of the microscope, we are able to view swarms of many sorts of creatures found in one tiny drop of water.

👉 Life Is in the Blood: In Leviticus 17:11 we are told that life of flesh is in the blood. At one time people considered blood to be the carrier of disease and drew blood for health reasons.(Schnabel page 41)

👉 Mankind Is One Blood: Paul on Mars’ Hill (Acts 17:26) says “He hath made of one blood all nations of men.” Before 1775 it was believed there were five distinct races each with different blood. (Has God Spoken? page 42) In 1900 Karl Landsteiner discovered that all human blood has one common base, namely plasma.

👉 Health and Sanitation: Look up the following Bible sections on health and sanitation: Leviticus 11:32-43; 7:19; 3:17; 17:13b; Deuteronomy 23:13; Leviticus 13:14-17; 13:45-46; 13:52; 14:8-9; 14; 40-47; Leviticus 15. These deal with prohibitions on eating pork, anything of unclean animals, of creeping things, eating of blood. There are also regulations on treatment of infectious diseases such as leprosy. These regulations were part of the ceremonial law but they also had health and sanitation value as we know in science today.

👉 Safe drinking water: In Leviticus 11:33-36 God’s forbade drinking from vessels or stagnant water that had been contaminated by coming into contact with a dead animal. It is only in the last 100 years that medical science has learned that contaminated water can cause typhoid and cholera.

👉Soil conservation : In Leviticus 23:22 Not only was the land to lay fallow every seventh year, but God also instructed farmers to leave the gleanings when reaping their fields, and not to reap the corners (sides) of their fields. This served several purposes: 1) Vital soil minerals would be maintained. 2) The hedge row would limit wind erosion. 3) The poor could eat the gleanings. Today, approximately four billion metric tons of soil are lost from U.S. crop lands each year. Much of this soil depletion could be avoided if God’s commands were followed.

👉 The Ostrich: Job 39:13-18 gives a description of the ostrich which leaves her eggs, forgets that her foot may crush the eggs, is hardened against her own young, has been deprived of wisdom by God, scorns the horse and rider, and lifts herself up on high. Dr. George Howe, biologist with Westmont College in Santa Barabara, California, is author of an article appearing in a 1963 issue of the American Scientific Affiliation. In it he demonstrates how biological studies of the ostrich have proved Job to be right.

👉 Ocean currents anticipated In Psalm 8:8 Three thousand years ago the Bible described the “paths of the seas.” In the 19th century Matthew Maury – the father of oceanography – after reading Psalm 8, researched and discovered ocean currents that follow specific paths through the seas! Utilizing Maury’s data, marine navigators have since reduced by many days the time required to traverse the seas.

👉 Pangea : The continents were created as one large land mass (Genesis 1:9-10). Many geologists agree there is strong evidence that the earth was originally one super continent – just as the Bible said way back in Genesis.

👉 Ice Age inferred In Job 38:29-30 Prior to the global Flood the earth was apparently subtropical. However shortly after the Flood, the Bible mentions ice often – “By the breath of God ice is given, and the broad waters are frozen” (Job 37:10). Evidently the Ice Age occurred in the centuries following the Flood.

👉 Herbal Medicine: God has given us the leaves of the trees as medicine (Ezekiel 47:12; Revelation 22:2). Ancient cultures utilized many herbal remedies. Today, modern medicine has rediscovered what the Bible has said all along – there are healing compounds found in plants.

👉The Bible warns against eating birds of prey: In Leviticus 11:13-19Scientists now recognize that those birds which eat carrion (putrefying flesh), often spread disease.

👉Genetic mixing of different seeds was forbidden In Leviticus 19:19;Deuteronomy 22:9). The Bible warns against mixing seeds – as this will result in an inferior or dangerous crop. There is now growing evidence that unnatural, genetically engineered crops may be harmful.

👉Hygienic Regulations The Bible contains hygienic regulations for the children of Israel. The Bible commands that sewage should be disposed of outside the camp of Israel: Also you shall have a place outside the camp, where you may go out; and you shall have an implement among your equipment, and when you sit down outside, you shall dig with it and turn and cover your refuse (Deuteronomy 23:12-13). This precaution would help eliminate diseases such as typhoid fever.

👉Circumcision On The Eighth Day: God also commanded his people to circumcise the male children on the eighth day: “He who is eight days old among you shall be circumcised, every male child in your generations (Genesis 17:12). The full meaning of that command has only been recently understood. Doctor Russel J. Thomsen writes: One simple aspect of Gods command to Abraham helped prevent excessive bleeding with circumcision of the newborn. That was the instruction that the rite should be done on the eighth day of life. Modern medicine has come to understand the mechanisms at work in the clotting of blood. Of major importance in blood clotting is prothrombin, a compound made in the liver and the precursor of the active clotting agent thrombin. It has been well established that within a few hours after birth prothrombin becomes relatively depleted and does not become replenished by the infants liver until about the eighth day of life (Russel J. Thomsen, M.D., Medical Wisdom From the Bible, Old Tappan, New Jersey: Fleming H. Revell Company, 1974, p. 17). It has been only since 1940 that it has become a standard practice to circumcise all male infants. 👉 Pest Control The Bible also gave a prescription for the control of pests. Robert Boyd writes: A sure-fire remedy for the control of pests was given centuries ago, and yet we are plagued today with insects, oftimes with no remedy. Moses commanded Israel to set aside one year in seven when no crops were raised Leviticus 25:1-24 . God promised sufficient harvest in the sixth year to provide for this period. Following this plan, heres what would happen – insects winter in the stalks of the last years harvest, hatch in the spring, and are perpetuated by laying eggs in the new crop. Now, if one year in seven no crop were raised, there is nothing for the insects to subsist upon and the pests are controlled by this method. Mans method today is crop rotation, but were still pestered with insects. This method will never approach Gods method. “Then there was the year of Jubilee after every seven Sabbatical years, which would serve to eliminate the insects which had a cycle of seven years or more or less and which were not affected by the one year in seven” (Robert Boyd, Boyds Bible Handbook, Eugene, Oregon: Harvest House Publishers, 1983, p. 78). Many other examples could be added. With regard to science, the biblical writers were separate from their contemporaries in the ancient world in the following two ways: (1) they did not repeat the commonly held errors of their day (2) they spoke of things that only present-day science has come to realize is scientifically accurate.

👉 The sun goes in a circuit : In Psalm 19:6). Some scientists scoffed at this verse thinking that it taught geocentricity – the theory that the sun revolves around the earth. They insisted the sun was stationary. However, we now know that the sun is traveling through space at approximately 600,000 miles per hour. It is literally moving through space in a huge circuit – just as the Bible stated 3,000 years ago!

👉Animal and plant extinction explained: In Jeremiah 12:4; Hosea 4:3 According to evolution, occasionally we should witness a new kind springing into existence. Yet, this has never been observed. On the contrary, as Scripture explains, since the curse on all creation, we observe death and extinction (Romans 8:20-22).

👉Intense sorrow or stress is harmful to your health: In Proverbs 18:14; Mark 14:34 Researchers have studied individuals with no prior medical problems who showed symptoms of stress cardiomyopathy including chest pain, difficulty breathing, low blood pressure, and even heart failure – following a stressful incident.

👉 Microorganisms anticipated: In Exodus 22:31 The Bible warns “Whatever dies naturally or is torn by beasts he shall not eat, to defile himself with it: I am the LORD” (Leviticus 22:8). Today we understand that a decaying carcass is full of disease causing germs.

👉The order of creation: Agrees with true science (Genesis 1). Plants require sunlight, water, and minerals in order to survive. In the first chapter of Genesis we read that God created light first (v.3), then water (v. 6), then soil (v. 9), and then He created plant life (v. 11).

👉 Atomic fission anticipated : In 2 Peter 3:10-12 Scripture states that “the elements will melt with fervent heat” when the earth and the heavens are “dissolved” by fire. Today we understand that if the elements of the atom are loosed, there would be an enormous release of heat and energy (radiation).

👉PHYSICS Entropy: According to the Genesis account God created a perfect world (Gen. 1:31) and that when sin entered, not only was man affected, but “thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee.” Gen. 3:18. Uniformitarians and general evolutionists today claim our world is ever advancing and developing from simple to complex. The Two Laws of Thermodynamics argue for a world which is degenerating rather than building up. These laws are described in The Genesis Flood by Morris and Whitcomb, the Twilight of Evolution and in Studies In Science and Scripture by Henry Morris. Wildersmith in his book Herkuft und Zukunft des Mensches, says these laws apply also to the life cell. The first law is called conservation of energy and means that energy is never destroyed or added to, but simply goes into another form. The second law is entropy which means that when energy is converted from one form to another in a closed system, it becomes less useful. If energy is not destroyed or added to, it is an argument for creation. If the world is running down, this argues for a creation and a degeneration since creation.

👉 Christ Supports All Things: Colossians 1:17 says that in Christ all things are “held together.” In Hebrews 1:3 we read “all things are upheld by the word of His power.” D. Lee Chesnut, author of The Atom Speaks and Echoes the Word of God, finds a terrific force, one billion to the fourth times greater than gravity, holding the world together and he believes this power to be Christ. Recently Japanese scientists have discovered that the exchange of two of the new forces found within the atom, the Pi-Mesons, might be this terrific force. Christ is still directing these forces. In 2 Peter 3:11 we read that at the end of the world all things will be dissolved or “unloosed.” By removing this terrific binding force, God could blow up the earth like an atom bomb. 2 Peter 3:10 states that the world will be destroyed by fire. We do not know how God will destroy the world, but Physics shows us a way God could use if He so chose.

👉 Light and Magnetic Wave Pattern: Genesis 1:3 speaks of God creating light by His Word. Psalm 104:2 says that God covers Himself with light as a garment. Wm. Overn, physicist of St. Paul, Minn., suggests that behind all ordered substance is a magnetic wave pattern which may be what is meant when God created “light.” “Light” then would have a much broader meaning than we generally ascribe to it and again demonstrates the scientific accuracy of the Bible.

👉 Time had a beginning In (Genesis 1:1,1 Timothy 1:8-9 Time had a beginning Profesor Stephen Hawking said ” In this lecture, I would like to discuss whether time itself has a beginning, and whether it will have an end. All the evidence seems to indicate, that the universe has not existed forever, but that it had a beginning, about 15 billion years ago. This is probably the most remarkable discovery of modern cosmology.

👉 All things are made up of sub-atomic particles that are invisible to the naked eye (Hebrews 11:3,Colosians 1:15-16) In the physical sciences, subatomic particles are particles much smaller than atoms. The two types of subatomic particles are: elementary particles, which according to current theories are not made of other particles; and composite particles.

👉 Anthropic principle : In Isaiah 45:18 The cosmological principle that theories of the universe are constrained by the necessity to allow human existence.

——–

While we believe that the Scriptures are scientifically accurate and that there are some examples of Scripture foreseeing modern science, there are some writers who have gone too far in their assertion that the Bible anticipates modern science. R.M. Page writes: Some writers, notably Rimmer, Sanden and Beirnes, have found Scriptural passages in which they see anticipations of modern scientific discovery. The undalatory theory of matter is seen in Genesis 1:2. Wireless telegraph is seen in Job 38:35. The concept of parallax is seen in James 1:17. Atomic theory of matter is seen in Hebrews 11:3 and atomic binding in Hebrews 1:3. Light as the basis of all substance is seen in Genesis 1:3, nuclear fission in Genesis 1:4, and a final chain reaction in Isaiah 34:4 and Luke 21:25-28. An expanding universe is seen in Isaiah 40:22. Motor cars are seen in Joel 2:3-4, airplanes in Isaiah 31:5 and 60:8, and submarines in Revelation 11:3-12 ,Matthew 12:40 (R.M. Page, “Science in the Bible,” The Zondervan Pictorial Encyclopedia of the Bible, Merrill C. Tenney, General editor, Volume 5, Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 1977, p. 295).

👉 Conclusion: We hope this will indicate that the Bible is always scientifically accurate, perfect in every respect and wholly reliable. We should not hesitate to defend it scientifically provided we recognize that science may change and we may need to revise our scientific proofs because of the change.

WATER IN SPACE

Two teams of astronomers have discovered the largest and farthest reservoir of water ever detected in the universe. The water, equivalent to 140 trillion times all the water in the world’s ocean, surrounds a huge, feeding black hole, called a quasar, more than 12 billion light-years away. The Bible states about waters above the heavens :

“Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens— ( Psalms 148:4 )

Water from the space !

In Genesis 1:6 “Then God said, “Let there be a space between the waters, to separate the waters of the heavens from the waters of the earth.”-

“The environment around this quasar is very unique in that it’s producing this huge mass of water,” said Matt Bradford, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. “It’s another demonstration that water is pervasive throughout the universe, even at the very earliest times.” Bradford leads one of the teams that made the discovery. His team’s research is partially funded by NASA and appears in the Astrophysical Journal Letters. Also known the water jars of the heavens :

In Job 38:37 “Who has the wisdom to count the clouds? Or who can tilt the water jars of the heavens– ––

Earth was one large ball of water before land suddenly emerged about 2.4 billionn years ago! The Bible states:

In Genesis 1:9-10 “And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.

—

Land came up from within the sea, dramatically rising up from the water, changing the entire planet’s geography, climate, and increasing chances of life in all its forms. Before this event, Earth was one massive ocean. Before this rapid emergence of land, the planet’s mantle was too soft to support mountain ranges and all the geographic features seen today, a new study has found, reports R&D. Researchers have found that shale sampled from various parts of the planet contains archived evidence of nearly unrecognisable traces of rainwater that led to the weathering of land from about 3.5 billion years ago. Before this event, the Earth was nothing more than a large body of water, hot and inhospitable. As the mantle cooled down, land emerged from the sea and climate on Earth also became a lot more temperate and bearable. Also, as new land clashed with each other, mountains, valleys, and plateaus came to be. In the Earth’s timeline, about 2.7 billion years ago, the first supercontinent came to be. Called the Kenorland, researchers till now always thought that the continent formed over a period of between 1.1 and 3.5 billion years ago. This new study, however, suggests that this change happened rather quickly, reports Daily Mail. The study found that about two-thirds of all the landmass seen today emerged from the sea about 2.4 million years ago.

In Psalms 24:1-2 “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it,the world, and all who live in it;for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters.

The crust needs to be thick to stick out of the water,” said Ilya Bindeman from the University of Oregon who led the study. “When the Earth was hot and the mantle was soft, large, tall mountains could not be supported. Our data indicate that this changed exponentially 2.4 billion years ago. The cooler mantle was able to support large swaths of land above sea level,” he explained. It was also around this time that dramatic changes in climate triggered the blooming of life that was far more complex than life at sea, like plants, algae, and fungi. It was followed by a series of “glacial events”, notes the report, between 2.4 and 2.2 billion years ago. “This bright surface afforded by the vast ice covering the poles started to radiate and reflect heat away from the planet. What we speculate is that once large continents emerged, light would be reflected back into space and initiate runaway glaciation,” said Bindeman.

In Psalms 104:6,8 “You covered it with the watery depths as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains…”they flowed over the mountains they went down into the valleys, to the place you assigned for them.–

Montana State University 2012 Everest research program: Seafloor to Summit, “Mount Everest is an extremely complicated mountain with several major faults that dissect it….. Therefore, the research agenda for 2012 will be directed towards gaining a better idea of the mineral composition, strain and age of rocks… This will include collecting a suite of samples to better date and describe the fossil-bearing marine limestones that form the summit pyramid of Everest;” Did you catch that last bit, “fossil-bearing marine limestones that form the summit”? In plain English that means dead sea creatures in the rocks at the very top of the tallest mountain on earth. The Burgess Shale formation in the Canadian Rockies, elevation 6,700ft [2040m]: “These fossils merit special interest for several reasons: •They were buried in an underwater avalanche of fine mud that preserved exceptionally fine details of the structure of their soft parts.” Have a look at the drawings of the variety of sea creatures buried up there. The Rockies in General: “From the moment the Rockies emerged from the ancient oceans, the agents of water and ice have been wearing them down and sculpting their rugged face.” Here’s a picture of trilobites high on one of these mountains. If you have time, there’s a long PDF of fossil sharks found in the Colorado mountains in Minturn (around the corner from Vail) elevation 7847ft [2392m]. I liked the reconstructions of the pre-Flood sea and land formations, very interesting! Appalachian Mountains road cut at Sideling Hill, Maryland starts at an elevation of 2,310 ft (704 m): “Marine fossils are present within the black silty shale 165 to 178 feet above the lowest exposed strata.” Andes Mountains: “Scientists have found fossils of whales and other marine animals in mountain sediments in the Andes, indicating that the South American mountain chain rose very rapidly from the sea…. Among the fossils the scientists reported bringing back were the bones of whales and other marine animals found at altitudes of more than 5,000 feet.” Dolomites of Europe, this is a translation, so the English is a little rough: “From what once was a warm and tropical see – with a position more South of what it is today – full of life and furrowed from warm sea flows, the mountains that we know today where formed. Small organisms, the corals, could live and multiply in the course of time in what was a gulf called Tetide…. With the help of the rocks and with the happenings of volcanic eruptions and various catastrophes…” The Dolomites reach to a height of 3200m [10,300ft] and are some of the spikiest mountains in the world. (For geology buffs, check out this article from Creation Evolution Headlines on Dolomite.) And sea creature fossils on nearby peaks: “Lhotse’s [8,516m/27,940ft peak] most defining aspect is its striking peak on the south face which has been reported as encompassing a variety of marine fossils….” Ural Mountains: “Located in western Russia, the Ural Mountains were once at the sea bottom, which explains the high quantity of marine fossils found in the area.” Papau New Guinea and Indonesia: “mountains were forming such as in Papua New Guinea, as the continents crumpled together. Former huge corals off Sulawesi, Indonesia, had also been lifted out of the seas by the same huge forces.” Sydney Morning Herald, “Delving further back in time, Dr Bridget Ayling went in search of 400,000-year-old clams in the tropical jungle of Papua New Guinea, where tectonic forces have lifted marine fossils to 1200 metres [3,937ft] above sea level. With the help of villagers, she collected more than 10 of the giants, whose chemical make-up reflects the sea temperature and salinity when they were alive. “They were exceptionally heavy and two men were needed to carry each valve down,” Ayling says.” Baguio Philippines: The mountainous area of Baguio I’ also remember we found fossils of ocean clams showing that Baguio was once upon a time under water.

In Psamls 18:15 “The valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth laid bare at your rebuke, LORD, at the blast of breath from your nostrils.

Oceanic islands, also known as volcanic islands, are formed by eruptions of volcanoes on the ocean floor. Continental and coral islands, which may be hundreds of meters taller than high islands, are called “low islands.” As volcanoes erupt, they build up layers of lava that may eventually break the water’s surface.

AIR WEIGHT Did the air have weight :

The Bible states that the air have weight it was mention

in Job 28:25 ” When he gave to the wind its weight and apportioned the waters by measure”

Yes, air has weight. The combined weight of the air pressure on you right now is about fifteen pounds per square inch. It might not seem like it, but air has weight. Anything with mass has weight, and we know air has mass because (for example) we can feel it when the wind blows. The total weight of the atmosphere exerts a pressure of about 14.7 pounds per square inch at sea level.

———–

In Job 28:25 “….and he weigheth the waters by measure.”

Using a ruler, measure the length and width of the tank and then measure the height of the water in the tank. Multiply the length X width X height of the water to get the volume of water in the tank. If you take the measurements in inches, your volume will be in cubic inches. Water salinity are measured by passing an electric current between the two electrodes of a salinity meter in a sample of soil or water. The electrical conductivity or EC of a soil or water sample is influenced by the concentration and composition of dissolved salts.
