The Greatest Creator Series

do not understand the electron either, they are ready to accept it because

they managed to produce a rather clumsy mechanical model of it borrowed

from rather limited experience in other fields, but they would not know how to

begin building a model of God.

I have discussed the aspect of a Designer at some length because it might

be that the primary resistance to acknowledging the "Case for DESIGN" as a

viable scientific alternative to the current "Case for CHANCE" lies in the

inconceivability, in some scientists' minds, of a Designer. The inconceivability

of some ultimate issue (which will always lie outside scientific resolution)

should not be allowed to rule out any theory that explains the interrelationship

of observed data and is useful for prediction.

W e in NASA were often asked what the real reason was for the amazing

string of successes we had with our Apollo flights to the Moon. I think the

only honest answer we could give was that we tried to never overlook

anything. It is in that same sense of scientific honesty that I endorse the

presentation of alternative theories for the origin of the universe, life and man

in the science classroom. It would be an error to overlook the possibility that

the universe was planned rather than happening by chance.

With kindest regards.

The point I am trying to make by all of these quotes from great men of science is

to show that the belief that Jesus is the greatest Creator in the universe is not a far

fetched idea without support of sound reason and evidence. The Christian does not

need all of this evidence, for the Bible teaches it clearly and that is sufficient, but all of

the support of science backing it up gives us what is needed to appeal to the skeptical

world. Jesus gave evidence to support his claim to be the Son of God, and we need to

give the world some evidence to believe that faith in what the Bible says is not blind

faith, but faith that is moving in the direction that the light is pointing. It is easier for

unbelievers to look into the claims of the Bible when they see the evidence of science

to support what it claims. Science becomes an important ally in reaching a skeptical

world with the truth of the Bible. And that truth is that Jesus Christ is the greatest

Creator. This will be even more evident in the new heaven and earth He will create,

for all of the awesome wonder and beauty of this world are just the warm up. The best

of the best of His creative power and genius is yet to be seen by those who

acknowledge Him as the Greatest Savior as well as the Greatest Creator. Let me

conclude with a poem I wrote on a passage in Colossians.

JESUS IS FIRST, Based on Col. 1:15-20. This can be sung to the tune of Hymn to

Joy by Beethoven

He's the image of Deity,

Icon of God's own Being.

In Him invisibility

Can by human eyes be seen.

First Born over all creation;

All that is was by Him made.

All things both in earth and heaven,

He their foundation has laid.

Visible and invisible,
