FRED HOLYE AND EVOLUTION

Fred Hoyle stated this: “Two thousand different
and very complex enzymes are required for a
 living organism to exist.  And random shuffling
processes could not form a single one of these
 even in 20 billion years.  I don’t know how long
 it is going to be before astronomers generally
recognize that the arrangement of not even one
 of the many thousand of biopolymers (Life molecules)
on which life depends could have been arrived at by
 natural processes here on earth."

"But consider the joy of those corrected by God!
Do not despise the discipline of the Almighty
when you sin.
For though he wounds, he also bandages.
He strikes, but his hands also heal." 
(Job 5:17,18 NLT)

CAUTION

CAUTION,

DANGER AHEAD

We have been being warned for several thousand

years of what is coming on this old world.  

The Holy Bible many years ago told us what people

would be like in our day and age.  And, just as it 

says, the people of this world are just like it said

they would be.

The Holy Bible told us many, many years ago that

in these end times there would be a one world

government.  And, if you pay any attention to the

news, you know that is being pushed for right now.

The Holy Bible told us that in these last days

this old planet earth would have the catastrophes

we are seeing today such as earth quakes, tsunamis,

famines etc.

ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION?

The Bible also tells us that it is going to get 

much, much worse.

Anybody that has read the Bible knows that we

have to have a close PERSONAL relationship

to Jesus Christ - or we are not going to make it.

Closer to my point.

Those of us who do know God personally, He 

has told us that we have to "hang on" in these

last days.  He uses different terms such as;

endure, be victorious, over come etc.

One of the last times I read through what we

call the "New Testament" I watched for these

warnings.  Would you know that I found at least

fifteen such warnings to us who call ourselves

Christians.

My friend, this old world has a very rough

time coming.  We are exhorted by God Himself

to hang on to Jesus Christ for all we are worth.

Meet me in the sky when Jesus calls us all home.

"It's for you I created the universe [says God].  I love

you.  There's only one catch.  Like any other gift, the

gift of grace can be yours only if you'll reach out and

take it.  Maybe being able to reach out and take it is

a gift, too."

- Frederick Buechner

LIFE'S FUTILITY

LIFE'S FUTILITY.

God has permitted me to have a few acres of woods

that I use to "get away from it all" in.  I drive over 

to this small patch of woods every chance I get just

to get away from it all.

Now I have learned a long time ago to consult with

God on the many decisions of life.  If I don't, well

I am in trouble.  But, this was one of those times that

it was just something that I wanted to do.  So, I

did it with out getting God's advice.

There is a hollow tree in my patch of woods and

by nature I am a "survivalist" at heart.  So, I wanted

to put some survival gear in that tree hid from the 

rest of the world "just in case."

I got a machete and put a protective coating on it

to keep it from rusting.

Then I made myself up a small can with a bail on

it so it could be held over a fire to boil water in,

if necessary.  And then put a protective coating on 

it to keep it from rusting also.

Lastly I took a plastic weather proof case and 

put in it [I think] something to light fires with.

A solar blanket and some fishing gear.  Stuffing

all of this in the hollow of the tree.

The last time I was over at my woods hid away

I decided to check on my survival gear.  It had 

been five or six years since it was all stuffed in

the tree.

Wow!  Just wow is all I can say.

It was like it was all buried in a pile of compost

in the tree.  I had to dig it out.

In addition the tree had grown enough that I

could not even get the tin can out with out

mashing it down.  And the plastic case.  I don't

know.  It is still stuck in the tree.  I cannot get

it out of the hole anymore.

I should know better.  Jesus Christ told us;

"Don't store up treasures here on earth,

where moths eat them and rust destroys them,

and where thieves break in and steal.  Store

your treasures in heaven, where moths and 

rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break

in and steal.  Wherever your treasure is, there

the desires of your hear will also be."   

(Matthew 6:19-21 NLT)   

I should have spent that time and little bit of 

money doing something worth while for God.

"Anyone who believes in me may come and drink!

For the Scriptures declare, 'Rivers of living water

will flow from his heart'" (When he said 'living water,"

he was speaking of the Spirit who would be given to

everyone believing in him.  But the Spirit had not

yet been given, because Jesus had not yet entered

into his glory.)"

(John 7:38,39 NLT)
