SCIENCE, THE PROOF OF THE BIBLE

   What have science done and have not been foretold in the bible already?, is it not ironical how science try so much to disprove the bible but end up creating more concrete evidence to the words which the bible have said? Today we shall be looking at how science have been able to affirm the words of the bible.

   Scientists have always shown discontent towards the immaculate conception of our lord Jesus christ, they said how possible can there be a pregnancy without fertilization?,and then the science of cloning was discovered. Cloning involve asexual propagation where fertilization or inter-gamete relationship is not required for reproduction.

   About a thousand years, science change the believe of the populace about our cosmic home(earth). Before this time it was believed that the earth was flat and was on the back of a giant turtle or was floating on a water, and then through enough scientific proofs, it was ascertained that the earth was standing on nothing and is sphere and not flat. Thousands of years even before this discovery the bible have said it all, for prophet Isaiah said "It is he that sits upon the circle of the earth" (Isaiah 40:22). And job confirm the floating of the earth in (job 26:7)

   It was only of recent that science start establishing the existence of dinosaurs through fossil records and other means, but the bible provided for the existence of these animals even over 3000years ago in the book of job, it also gave a reason to why dinosaurs disappeared. Why then did the dinosaur disappear? The answer may be in Job 40:15–24. In this passage, God speaks about a great creature called "behemoth." Following are the characteristics of this huge animal: It was the largest of all the creatures God made; was plant-eating (herbivorous); had its strength in its hips and a tail like a large tree. It had very strong bones, lived among the trees, drank massive amounts of water, and was not disturbed by a raging river. He appears impervious to attack because his nose could pierce through snares, and Scripture says, "He that made him can make his sword to approach unto him." In other words, God caused this, the largest of all the creatures He had made, to become extinct.

   The Bible specifies the perfect dimensions for a stable water vessel (Genesis 6:15). Ship builders today are well aware that the ideal dimension for ship stability is a length six times that of the width. Keep in mind, God told Noah the ideal dimensions for the ark 4,500 years ago.

   When dealing with disease, clothes and body should be washed under running water (Leviticus 15:13). This was not discovered until the 18th century. For centuries people naively washed in standing water. Today we recognize the need to wash away germs with fresh water.

   There are mountains on the bottom of the ocean floor (Jonah 2:5-6). Only in the last century have we discovered that there are towering mountains and deep trenches in the depths of the sea.

   There are so many more provisions which the bible have ascertained thousands of years before their actual discovery by science e.g leprosy as in Leviticus, the rotation of the earth in luke, atoms in Hebrew and romans etc.
