I See Jesus Everywhere!

Matthew Maury [1806-1873]
The "Father" of oceanography
Aided in the laying of the first trans-Atlantic cable

Maury believed Psalm 8:8, which speaks of the "paths of the seas" , and he discovered "oceanic currents"

Maury described atmospheric circulation and showed that it was already described in Ecclesiastes 1:6

Maury showed Job 28:25 to be true with respect to the weight of the winds.

"The Bible is true and science is true, and therefore each, if truly read, but proves the truth of the other."

         Adult Material.  Reader Beware.   The first part of this chapter may have material you will not like to read or have your children see.  This chapter does show the love of God.

       Skip to next section' "Is this a teaching of Evolution" if you do not want to read about Jeffrey Dahmer, mass murderer.

    I was inspired to write on this subject by what I watched on CNBC last night titled, "an Interview with a Mass Murderer".  The program had a sit down chat with mass murderer and cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer.  The news program wanted to get answers as to how he could have done such horrendous things to another human being.  The show interviewed his parents, digging for answers for the reason why.  This interview took place before Jeffrey's own death. Mr. Dahmer was murdered in prison by other inmates while serving a life sentence for his crimes.

         In the interview, Mr. Dahmer revealed the #1 reason why he was capable of committing murder, then eating his victim, and doing it again to another, and then another.  He stated that his belief in the lie of evolution that was being taught to him in public school since early childhood was the main reason he could do it.  His father, who was sitting with him during the interview, admitted that there was no faith in God being taught to Jeffrey in his home.  His belief in evolution, he said, "cheapened human life to him".  He concluded that man was just like any other animal, there was no life after death, so therefore it was okay to kill.  This is the same conclusion some of our worst mass murders in world history, all from the 21st Century, decided after being indoctrinated into the evolutionary idea. Men such as Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung all believed in evolution and its teaching of "Survival of the Fittest".  

        I know secular humanists love to state that more people have died in religious wars than in any other way in the history of man.  The truth is, those who had no faith in God of the Bible are the worst killers known to man in all of history.  Hitler killed up to 12 million people because of his belief in "Survival of the Fittest" taught in evolution.  Stalin, it is claimed, had over 20 million people put to death. Atheist and China Dictator Mao Tse-Tung may be the worst offender of all, with estimates ranging as high as 40 million deaths attributed to him.

       Because of my love for the truth found in the Bible about creation, my ears perked-up when I heard Jeffrey Dahmer speak about how the teachings of evolution affected his world view and life.  He was able to kill because he had no faith in God or an afterlife.  He had no faith because of his belief in evolution. Human life was brought down to the same level as animal life in his eyes.  Is this what the word of God teaches?

       Is Genesis 1: 27 a teaching of evolution?  Ask Mr. Dahmer.  He believed we came out of a slimy soup mix and over billions of years man finally evolved from some ancestor ape.  Man split away from this ape form from which we came and became man. 

       Scripture teaches man has a body, a soul and a spirit.  Is this a teaching of evolution?  (Answer below taken from my book: "I See Him...I See Him! God's WORD to witness By."

       "Evolution does not allow for man to have a spirit or a soul!  The scientific community allows for only natural science to explain the origin of the universe and the origin of life.  Natural Science by definition does not allow for any outside Intelligent Designer (God) to exist.  In other words, you must use natural causes only to explain how we got something from nothing, how the universe created itself, how a living cell came from a non-living cell, and how an ape-like creature without a soul or a spirit became man.  Natural Science does not allow for a God of the Bible nor a human to have a spirit or soul because you cannot explain by natural causes how God or the human spirit and soul would have come into existence."

       This is what our children are being taught in our Public Schools from an early age on!  Where do they go to learn the truth about creation?  Are they learning the truth from you, the parent?  Is the church you attend teaching the truth about creation and the lie of evolution?

       I promise you, when you know the truth, there is no reason ever to believe evolution ever occurred or that God could have somehow used evolution as his means to create the universe or life.  Evolution completely contradicts all that is written in the Bible about the origin of life.  It is Satan's lie!  It is a false belief system!

       I am not saying that unless you believe as the Bible teaches about creation, you cannot be a Christian.  I am saying, when you can humble yourself and submit to all the teachings of the Bible, your faith in God and his word will increase like never before.  The good news is, as I stated above, "There is no reason to ever believe evolution ever occurred."  There is good reason to believe that the Bible story of the origin of life is absolutely true.  There is good scientific evidence found in the Bible that gives us understanding the Bible account is true and not the belief system called evolution.

       In my book,  "I See Him...I See Him! God's WORD to Witness by", I have two main chapters that deal with the scientific evidence for creation as the Bible account gives us, and many other chapters have what I call "Scientific Moments" to further show the truth of God's glory in creation.  I pray you will get my book.  It will increase your faith in creation and give you the evidence to reject the teachings of evolution.  If the question of evolution is holding you back to begin a relationship with God, do not follow the crowd, but get on the road that leads to everlasting life.

       From the first book of the Bible, Genesis, God has been teaching us the reason why man has fallen out of relationship with him.   The word of God shows us the reason why we cannot see him.  God tells us it is because of our sins. God tells us it all began with the first parents of all of mankind

 18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
       and you will eat the plants of the field.

 19 By the sweat of your brow
       you will eat your food
       until you return to the ground,
       since from it you were taken;
       for dust you are
       and to dust you will return."

       Because of sin there is pain, suffering, and death in the world we live in.  We are just as guilty as Adam and Eve were.  We cannot blame it all on them.  The sins I have committed have been my own choice.  I have chosen to sin against the one who created me.  Even though I love him so, I still make bad choices and sin.  I hurt the one I love the most.  God foreknew this would be the case with every human being he created.  God had to take matters into his own hands to bring us back into relationship with Him.
      
       In order to reestablish our relationship with Him, the Bible teaches there is only one way for us to do it.  God requires we have FAITH.  Faith in his Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.

       Look how much God loves the sinner!  Before his death, Jeffrey Dahmer repented of his sins, turned to Jesus Christ for his salvation, and according to the teachings of the Bible--has gone into everlasting glory to be with God forever and ever.  He has been forgiven of all his sins.  No other religion in the world would show this amount of forgiveness.  No other religion displays the love God has for man as the one and only God found in the Bible.  I believe Mr Dahmer truly repented and accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.  I fully expect to see him in heaven someday.

       If the God of the Bible can do this for Jeffrey Dahmer,  He can do this for everyone.  In fact, he already has.  It is now up to us to accept His free gift of salvation by turning from our sins and asking Jesus to enter into our heart.

     He wants a personal relationship with you right now.  Are you ready to have a relationship with God?  The Apostle Paul had an experience with Jesus that changed him from being a  persecutor of Christians to a follower of Jesus Christ.  Listen to the testimony of this forgiven sinner named Paul:

If you are ready to accept God’s Son and have faith in him, here are the simple steps in becoming a child of God:

1) You must repent. You must admit you are a sinner; you have rebelled against a Holy and Loving God. There must be a change of Heart- a genuine sorrow and shame for your sin.

2) You must have Faith in Jesus Christ. You must accept Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God, and Christ died for the ungodly and sinners. It means to believe in the power and love of Jesus to save you. It means trusting Jesus to make you right with God.

3) You must confess. The Bible says that if you confess with your mouth "Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved.

4) Pray. You are now able to speak to God as your Father, something that you have never been able to do before.

One last thing, begin a relationship with fellow believers by attending church and getting involved in Christ’s ministry and work. God does not promise life on earth will be made easier- He is not a genie in a bottle.  But he promises to be there for you always. He promises you eternity where all tears will pass away.  You will be truly blessed by seeking a strong relationship with your Savior- Jesus Christ.  God has wonderful things awaiting us in heaven.  Look at who you have now become in Christ Jesus:

Who You Are Now in Christ! (God’s Promises to You!)

1)      You are a Child of God.  John 1: 12 ¹²Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— (NIV)

2)      You are a Friend of Jesus Christ.  John 15: 15 ¹⁵Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends;

3)      You are Justified (As if you have not sinned!).  Romans 5: 1 ¹Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

4)      You will never be Condemned!  Romans 8: 1-2 ¹There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. ²For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

5)      God Loves You Forever!  Romans 8: 35 & 38-39 ³⁵Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? ³⁸For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, ³⁹Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

6)      You will live in Heaven! Philippians 3: 20 ²⁰But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, (NIV)

7)      You are a Saint.  Ephesians 1: 1 to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

8)      You are Redeemed and Forgiven!  Colossians 1: 14 ¹⁴In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:

9)      You are an adopted Child of Christ! Ephesians 1: 5 ⁵Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

10)  God has prepared a Special Place for You! 1 Corinthians 2: 9 ⁹But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

This is only a sampling of what God has in store for you!  Welcome to the Kingdom of God!

       If you have enjoyed what you have read in this chapter and the other chapters I have written on this site, how about using my book, "I See Him...I See Him! God's WORD to Witness By" as a Bible Study to learn more about what the Bible teaches?  I have packed 39 chapters with Bible scripture to reveal Jesus Christ, the absolute truth of the Bible, Creation, scientific evidence for the truth of the Bible, and much much more.  I believe God lead me in each of the chapters I wrote, just as he has led me in writing the chapters you can read on my web-site.

May God richly bless you and your family!

God loves you and so do I!
