Nature and the Bible
"For his invisable qualities are clearly seen from the worlds creation, because they are percieved by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship, so that they are inexcusable"
Romans 1: 20
"How many your works are, O Jehovah. All of them in wisdom you have made.
The Earth is full of your productions"
Psalm 104: 24
Genesis 1: 24 tells us that on the sixth creative day, God went on to say "Let the earth put forth living souls according to their kinds, domestic animal and moving animal and wild beast of the earth according to its kind. And it came to be so".
How did God feel about his new creative works?
Verse 25 tells us : "God got to see that it was good".
Any reasonable person who looks at the beauty and design in nature with an appreciative heart, could not possibly disagree with this simply expressed but profound conclusion of the creator.
Jehovah, in his Holy Word makes frequent reference to his creative works.
For example, outstanding traits of animals are alluded to and used by the Bible writers to symbolize a variety of qualities and powers.
In other instances animals may be employed to represent wild, beastlike ruling powers that oppress and crush mankind.
Plants and vegetation are often used figuratively, for example when the Psalmist proclaimed "My heart has been struck just like vegetation and is dried up. I myself am dried up like mere vegetation" (Ps 102 : 4, 11).
Mountains and rivers are mentioned time and again in God's word, not only confirming the geographical accuracy of the Bible record but also to convey strong emotions such as at Judges 5:5 where "Mountains flow away from the face of Jehovah" and at Psalm 97:5 where we are told "mountains themselves proceeded to melt just like wax on account of Jehovah. On account of the Lord of the whole earth".
The purpose of this DVD ROM (computer use only) is to provide exhaustive reference works and multi-media material to help us learn more about the many animals, plants,rivers, mountains astronomical phenomena and other aspects of the natural world mentioned in the Bible.
This will hopefully make our scripture reading more meaningful and understandable and well as provide many happy hours of interesting research for the keen Bible student.

Lions were once plentiful in Palestine but were hunted to extinction during Roman times.
"Go to the Ant, you lazy one, see its ways and become wise". (Prov 6:6)
The Addax Antelope : the "di-shon" of the Hebrew scriptures.
"(Fennec) Foxes have dens and birds of heaven have roosts, but the Son of man has nowhere to lay down his head" (Matt 8: 20).
The Fanfoot Gecko listed at Leviticus 11:30, was "unclean" for the Israelites.
"It is easier for a (Bactrian) Camel to get through a needles eye than for a rich man to get into the kingdom of God" ( Matt 19: 24).
The Syrian Brown Bear was once common in Palestine but is no longer found there. (It can still be seen in N.Syria, Iran and S Turkey). Bears on one occasion served as God's executioners against delinquent youths who mocked the prophet Elisha (2 Ki 2:24)
"Hermon in your name they cry out joyfully"
(Ps 89: 12). Forming the southern end of the Lebanon range, Mount Hermon rises over 9000 feet above sea level and extends almost 20 miles from north to south. On a clear day, the top of Mt Hermon affords a splendid view of almost all of Palestine.
Evolution ... A Theory in Crisis
The Darwinian theory of evolution maintains that advanced organisms developed from lower forms of life.
However, to this day, no evidence has ever been produced to support these theories.
Mutations, for example long held by evolutionists as the catalysts in a species progressive development have never been shown to have a beneficial influence.
Infact, mutations which have caused the creation of complex structures are absolutely unknown.
Despite intensive research, the much touted concept of higher development of the species can neither be confirmed through experiments nor is it clearly documented in nature.
"Evolution ... A Theory in Crisis" (2011 Edition) has been thoroughly updated and provides critical evidence that the theory of evolution is NOT based on true science but is instead a pseudo - scientific construction used to justify political expediencies and a materialistic view of life .
