Chicken or the Egg Science Verses Religious Answer...

Chicken or the Egg Science Verses Religious Answer...

 

Science says…

Which came first the chicken or the egg…How can you have an egg without a Chicken…a pregnant chicken produces an egg which hatches another chicken. Eggs which hatch into chickens are created from a male and female chicken…therefore an egg comes from a pregnant chicken…a female chicken…who has mated with a male chicken…thus producing the egg. Science has described the natural laws.

 

God says…

In the beginning when there was nothing…I created all the Universe and the life in it…because I am…

So God created all trees, birds, fish, whales,…etc. first by a miracle then set up a natural way for them to reproduce after their kind. He as it is written put the seed in itself with trees…so the first tree had a seed to reproduce another tree…God setup natural laws to sustain the life on earth He created first by a miracle and then allowed a natural law system for life on earth to continue and flourish.

 

To answer the question which came first the chicken or the egg…religiously…one would still say the Chicken because God had to create the first chicken…if there was truly nothing in the beginning…nothing meaning the absence of anything…then no chicken could have ever existed…something does not come from nothing…a chicken does not come from the absence of everything…if there was nothing then only nothing or the absence of existing would be…there is a Chicken…there is a natural order or nature law of reproduction…there are chicken eggs which hatch chickens…therefore I believe something created the first two chickens male and female…so that the egg which exists can be explained as to why a male and female chicken produce an egg hatching into their own kind.

 

As it is written…

Gen 1:1-5 KJV  In the beginning God (Self Existing Force of Creation) created the heaven and the earth.  2  And the earth was without form (nothing), and void (empty space); and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.  3  And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.  4  And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.  5  And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

 

 

Gen 1:20-23 KJV  And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.  21  And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.  22  And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.  23  And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

 

God also created mankind…by making them male and female…

Gen 1:26-28 KJV  And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.  27  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.  28  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.

 

The Great I Am…God who is Self-Existing…Creator of All…Father of All please Father we are but children in diapers trying to learn our plan and purpose in life…please reveal the truth to us so we can fulfill our plan and purpose right…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Are you an overcomer…or will you be rejected…

Are you an overcomer…or will you be rejected…


Rev 21:6-8 KJV  And He said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.  7  He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son….


8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death...


  1. Fearful…cowardly…timid…scared of what will happen if they practice Jesus… Are you too shy to practice Jesus’ Truth…yes or no?

  2. Unbelieving…infidel…one who lives as if there is no God regardless of the knowledge, they possess… Do you live as if Jesus did not die and was raised? Yes or no?

  3. Abominable…a stench…a rendering fowl…to abhor that which is done…something opposing to the will of God…to hate the behavior of a person…disgusting to God…Are you disgusting to God? Yes or no? Would you do it in front of His Throne?

  4. Murderers…the act of making someone dead…hatred is the emotion of not wanting someone to exist…murder is the act of making someone not exist…it is the deed…Are you filled with hatred and wanting people not to exist? Yes or no…then do not do the deed!

  5. Whoremongers…a person who has sex outside of marriage…described as illicit sexual intercourse between people not married…Are you a whore? Yes or no…always wanting more? Do you use whores to satisfy your flesh? Yes or no?

  6. Sorcerers…one who is devoted to magical arts…uses potions…spells…enchantments…and drugs…one who uses magic…Do you use magic? Yes or no?

  7. Idolators…a turning away from God…openly…secretly…consciencely…or unconsciously. Do you run to God with your problems…or do you go to someone else? Yes or no?

  8. Liars…those who practice false…lying…false…Have you told the truth for a day? Yes or no?

 

If you answered yes to any of these questions…then you will be burning in the lake of fire…if you do not change your behavior…then you will burn in the lake of fire which is he second death…Jesus Christ died on the cross and was raised from the dead…in order so…you could never practice or do anything that will send you to the lake of fire…He will forgive you…as you forsake and confess your deeds…He will reveal the Truth so you can reconcile with God…do you want to be reconciled to God? Yes or no?

 

Rom 12:1-2 KJV  I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.  2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God…Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.  16  For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.  17  And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abides forever. 1Jn 2:15-17 KJV…Jas 1:12-16 KJV  Blessed is the man that endures temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love Him.  13  Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts He any man:  14  But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.  15  Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.  16  Do not err, my beloved brethren.

 

Father please help us not to be anything you do not want…please create in us a heart and mind and soul and spirit and strength which loves and obeys You and Your Holy Son Jesus…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Idle mind is the devil’ workshop…a sermon...

Idle mind is the devil’ workshop…a sermon...

The first thing the devil begins with is an idea…a lie…you have not heard…an alternate view of reality…a false reality…a false witness…he attacks with ideas introduced through your mind and ears…you hear this commercial or see this person and he points out…or as the bible says you hear a seducing spirit…or a teaching from a liar or devil…

1Ti 4:1-5 KJV  Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;  2  Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;  3  Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.  4  For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:  5  For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

 

Subtle is how satan is described…

A barely noticeable lie…just a little lie mixed with the truth…to create a division between the truth and lie…a doubt…you ever heard of the benefit of the doubt…it involves innocent until proven guilty…not the truth cannot be determined…

Gen 3:1 KJV  Now the serpent was more subtil (barely noticeable hidden agenda) than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? …listen to what Jesus said about Satan…Joh 8:44 KJV  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own (barely noticeable hidden agenda…murdering of salvation): for he is a liar, and the father of it…

Here Jesus calls Satan the first Liar and said his purpose was to murder…of his own will satan… the serpent…came up with plot of his own…murdering Adam and Eve’s salvation…with a three letter word added to what God had said…saying you shall NOT surely die…to Eve…who fell for the temptation of wanting to be wise like God without going to God…then gave to Adam…who also broke the command.

 

False witnesses…seducing spirits…doctrines of devils…lies…hypocrisy…hereticks…false teachers…

1Co 10:20-21 KJV  But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.  21  Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils…Tit 3:9-11 KJV  But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.  10  A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;  11  Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sins, being condemned of himself…Jas 3:13-18 KJV  Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.  14  But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.  15  This wisdom descends not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.  16  For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.  17  But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.  18  And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

 

There is no doubt in faith…

Faith is the obeying of the truth from the Word of God…as it is written…faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God Rom 10:17. Jesus said to the disciples…who were commanded to teach everything Jesus taught them (Mat 28:28)… Joh 8:31-32 KJV  Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;  32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free…is Jesus still making converts and revealing the truth so people can reconcile with their Creator?

Jesus Christ said…Mat 11:27-30 KJV  All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him.  28  Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  29  Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.  30  For My yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

No lie is of the truth and doubt is removed by truth…lies are ended with truth…you ever notice…you tell a lie the problem gets bigger…you tell the truth your problems get smaller…Jesus will reveal the truth so you can do what is morally right by your Creator the Great I Am of All that Is…Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead so you could never choose a wrong or evil thing again and so your wrongs can be forgiven…He will reveal the truth to you and all you have to do is practice the truth and reconcile with your Creator…the Great I Am…

 

 

 

Sound like good news…

Joh 3:16-17 KJV  For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  17  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved…Heb 5:8-9 KJV  Though he were a Son, yet learned He obedience by the things which He suffered;  9  And being made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him…Act 17:24-31 KJV  God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that He is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;  25  Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing He giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;  26  And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;  27  That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after Him, and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us:  28  For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring.  29  Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.  30  And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commands all men everywhere to repent:  31  Because He hath appointed a day, in the which He will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom He hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto all men, in that He hath raised him from the dead…1Co 15:1-4 KJV  Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;  2  By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.  3  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;  4  And that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the scriptures…

 

The first recorded sermon of salvation said in Jesus Christ name…listen to what is said after the crowds asks what shall we do (to be saved)…

Act 2:37-42 KJV  Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?  38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.  39  For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call…

…are you one of the “even as many as the Lord our God shall call”? Yes or no? If you obey the same message the Apostle Peter said by inspiration of the Holy Spirit…then you will receive the Same Promise…

Jesus said…

Joh 3:3-6 KJV  Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.  4  Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?  5  Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.  6  That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit…He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mar 16:16.

 

Will you be baptized? Yes or no? Do you believe Jesus died and was raised from the dead? Yes or no? Have you ever been baptized before? Yes or no…Ever made a commitment to God before? Yes or no?

 

Have you asked the Author of Salvation to write you a plan of Salvation? Yes or no?

 Heb 5:8-9 KJV  Though he were a Son, yet learned He obedience by the things which He suffered;  9  And being made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey Him;

 

Have you obeyed His recorded teaching? Yes or no?

Luk 6:46-49 KJV  And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?  47  Whosoever cometh to Me, and heareth My sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:  48  He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.  49  But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

 

Have you been faithful to Jesus Christ…?

Tit 2:7-10 KJV  In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity,  8  Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.  9  Exhort servants to be obedient unto their own masters, and to please them well in all things; not answering again;  10  Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things…1Ti 6:17-18 KJV  Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;  18  That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate…

 

Father…we renounce any table not Jesus Christ’s…we ask for mercy and repentance…so we can reconcile with You according to the Truth You reveal to us…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name (Acts 22:8)…Amen.
