Question posed by Christ on FAITH

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, 
which to day is, 
and to morrow is cast into the oven, 
Q: shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

Creation Moment 10/29/2026 - Obvious Evidence

I will praise Thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: 
Psalm 139:14

"If we look at even just one aspect of our bodies, such as the dexterity of our hand, wrist and fingers, it speaks of design, and therefore, a
Designer. Robotics engineers are still striving to copy that dexterity!
And our movements are controlled by our brains—no mean feat! 
The immense complexity of the human brain, its creativity and power of abstract reasoning, with capacities vastly beyond that required for sheer survival, is perhaps the most obvious evidence for intelligent creation."

Papal Hypocrisy

For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Exodus 20:11

"Apostolic Letter Dies Domini and Francis I (in the encyclical Laudato Si) have declared that the seventh day Sabbath is Jewish and that sun day is the Christian sabbath. 
--Yet the Bible never refers to the Sabbath as Jewish. In every single instance, the Sabbath is God’s holy rest day because He made it holy by His rest. 
--The papacy claims that the Sabbath is a relic of the Jewish old Covenant, and yet it continues a plethora of old Covenant practices such as 
sacrifices on altars, 
the use of holy vestments, 
the sprinkling holy water, 
the burning incense, 
the lighting candles, 
and the building of shrines to the saints. 
By doing this, the papacy strains the gnat and swallows the camel. The papacy enjoins all of these practices that God does not command and yet discards God’s explicit command to rest on the Sabbath!"

Creation Moment 10/28/2026 - Vesuvius eruption calibration study

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,... 
Romans 1:22

"Pliny the Younger advances geochronology (Renne et al, Science Advances, 25 September 2026). In this compelling article, the authors
utilize ancient records of the historical eruption, as documented by historian Pliny the Younger, to refine argon-argon (⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar) dating: a technique routinely used to assign ages to volcanic rocks and to build timelines for major events in Earth’s history.


For those interested in origins and the age of the earth, the study raises fascinating questions. Ironically, while the research is presented as strengthening the geological timescale, it also highlights how heavily radiometric dating depends upon 
calibration, 
assumptions,
corrections, 
standardization, 
historical benchmarks, 
and continual revision. 
From a creation science perspective, the paper provides a reminder that radiometric dating is not a simple matter of reading ages directly from rocks.

One of the most interesting features of the research approaches that Renne et al (2026) did not rely solely on radioactive decay. Instead, they relied heavily on historical documents. The paper spends considerable space defending the historical date of the eruption through the writings of Pliny the Younger, Cassius Dio, Suetonius, Roman chronology, archaeological evidence, and coin analysis. This raises an important question. 
Q: If radiometric dating methods are entirely self-validating, why was a historically known event necessary to calibrate the system?
A: The answer is that radiometric dating methods are not independent of external information. 
They require 
calibration standards, 
known-age samples, 
correction factors, 
and assumptions regarding decay constants. 

*Oftentimes, the reasoning applied is also circular: dependent on the theorized age of the surrounding rocks, which are in turn dependent on radiometric decay assumptions and the fossils found within them. As this study highlights, rather than radiometric dating proving the historical age, the historical age was used to refine radiometric dating itself. From a creationist perspective, this illustrates that dating systems are not isolated measurements but interconnected models.

Another surprising aspect of the paper is the authors’ acknowledgement that different dating methods have not always agreed. 
--Specifically, the researchers describe a recent Bayesian calibration effort involving both potassium-argon and uranium-lead dating systems because these methods have been yielding inconsistent results. They note that these “most important geochronometers” have “not been giving us consistent results over the years.”

This admission is significant, as radiometric dating is often presented to the public as if multiple techniques independently converge on
identical answers
. Yet here, the researchers openly discuss the need to reconcile disagreements among major dating systems. Creation scientists have long pointed out such discrepancies, arguing that agreement between methods often requires adjustments, recalibrations, and statistical alignment rather than emerging automatically from the raw data.


The paper also acknowledges another problem: the presence of excess argon in their samples. The measured sample trapped ⁴⁰Ar/³⁶Ar ratio that differed from atmospheric values, leading the authors to conclude:
“The supra-atmospheric ratio suggests a minor component of magmatic excess ⁴⁰Ar.”

This problem is not new as excess argon has long been a challenge for potassium-argon and argon-argon dating, as the underlying assumption of these methods is that the isotopic clock starts when molten rock cools and that the mineral initially contains no inherited radiogenic argon. However, if some “old” argon is already present, the rock may appear older than its actual age.

Perhaps the most revealing section of Renne et al’s study concerns decay constants. The paper acknowledges that absolute dating depends on constants and calibrations that are still being refined. The authors themselves critiqued the evidence basis for the decay constants in use today. Quoting from the article, they state:
“The underlying U-Pb decay constants in ubiquitous use are based on a single study with poorly quantified systematic uncertainties.”

While the author’s calibrated revision did not substantially alter the accepted decay constant for potassium-40, the study illustrates that geologic age determinations depend on continually improving calibrations and standards rather than on immutable quantities that were settled once and for all.

Understanding these assumptions is important, as long-age interpretations depend not merely upon measured isotope ratios but also upon confidence in 
decay constants, 
calibration standards, 
correction factors, 
and statistical models. 
--If these foundational values continue to be refined, then age calculations across geological time may also shift. 
Creationists have frequently argued that confidence intervals expressed in millions or billions of years often underestimate uncertainty because they do not fully capture uncertainties in the underlying assumptions.

Demonstrating this even more clearly, the article discusses a particularly revealing example: the “Millennium Eruption” of Changbaishan volcano. In this case study, the authors reported that many argon-age measurements had to be rejected because they appeared anomalously old due to excess argon. They mention another study that concluded no reliable eruption age could be obtained from the data.

These examples illustrate something often missed in popular science reporting: dating methods do not always converge neatly. Real-world geological samples can produce conflicting answers that must be interpreted through additional assumptions and human judgment.

While this study’s transparency is commendable, we are left with several emerging questions for gradualist interpretations of geology that remain unanswered:
Q: If radiometric systems require continual recalibration, how
confidently can we project these methods into deep time?
Q: If contamination produced ages exceeding 20,000 years in a known AD 79 sample, how can similar effects always be recognized in prehistoric rocks?
Q: If foundational decay constants continue to be refined, how stable are absolute geological ages over long timescales?
Q: Does increasing precision necessarily guarantee increasing accuracy, or does it simply produce more precise answers within an assumed framework?

While Renne et al’s Vesuvius calibration study is undoubtedly an impressive achievement, its greatest significance is in revealing how much the geological timescale depends on calibration, interpretation, assumptions, and continual adjustment. Far from eliminating questions about Earth’s history, the study reminds us that the deeper we probe the past, the more important those foundational assumptions become."

Coming Latter Rain

"Jesus said in the book of Acts: “You will receive power to be My witnesses.” In Revelation 18 a mighty angel descends from heaven having great power and the whole world is filled with his glory. Pentecost began the harvest and the latter rain will conclude it.
At the end of human history 
--God’s remnant church will receive the latter rain 
--proclaim to the world what Jesus is doing in the most holy place and they will . 
*God’s people will announce that Jesus is in the process of judging the living , temple that sin must be cleansed from the soul while Jesus is cleansing the record of sin in the sanctuary so that God’s people can receive the times of refreshing to empower them to preach the message with power world so that Jesus can come."

The heredity of Christ

"He took humanity in its fallen condition. 
When the fullness of time was come, God sent forth His Son, made of a woman, made under the law [For what purpose was He made under the law?] to redeem them that were UNDER THE LAW, that we might receive the adoption of sons,” Galatians. 4:4, 5. 
Had not Christ been made under the law, as all mankind was by sin,
He could not have redeemed them, so as to call them sons. 
He who was as spotless while on earth as when in heaven took our nature, that He might lift man to the exaltation of Himself by His righteousness. "Jesus accepted humanity when the race had been weakened by four thousand years of sin. Like every child of Adam, He accepted the results of the working of the great law of heredity."
What these results were is shown in the history of His earthly ancestors. 
*He came with such a heredity to share our sorrows and temptations, and to give us the example of a sinless life. It was Christ through David who said: “Behold I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.”
*Our Savior, then, is a holy Christ in sinful human nature, who by His presence in sinful nature sanctifies fallen humanity, so that humanity, by the presence and holiness of the sinless Savior, can be saved to the uttermost."

IN the NEWS - “Allahu Akbar” strikes Christians again

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. John 8:44

"At least nine people were killed and another 40 injured after gunmen opened fire on a church in Jordan’s southern Karak province.
The “unidentified” gunmen have not yet been captured, the public security agency said in a news conference adding that the shooting was a terrorist attack against Christians attending a funeral in the town of Hmoud.
Jordan’s King Abdullah said Jordan will “harshly” respond against those responsible for the “terrorist act.”
“The blood of Jordanians is precious, and we will strike those who transgress against this country with an iron fist,” the king said on X.
The Prime Minister of Jordan Jafar Hassan said all state agencies are working to bring the perpetrators to justice, according to the kingdom’s official news agency Petra.
“What happened in Karak was the result of extremist terrorist ideology rooted in takfir (declaring others to be infidels), and we will not allow society to go down this path,” Petra quoted Hassan as saying.
A witness told state-run Al-Mamlaka television that one attacker was carrying an AK-47 assault rifle, and the shooting continued for several minutes.
Another witness speaking to CNN confirmed that the attack lasted a long time with gunmen shouting “Allahu Akbar” while targeting the courtyard of the church, where most people were standing.
The town has been home to a predominantly Christian community for centuries. On Friday, people had gathered at St. George’s Greek Orthodox Church to mourn the death of a community member.
“Some guys were standing outside the church before two people got out of a vehicle and started shooting,” Tamer Halasa, an eyewitness told Al-Mamlaka television."

Creation Moment 10/26/2026 - Christians playing the harlot

"The Bible uses strong language to describe any form of compromise with worldly thinking. And it doesn’t just apply to the ancient Israelites. Hosea 4:12 says, “My people ask their wooden idol, and their diviner’s wand declares to them; for a spirit of harlotry has led them astray, and they have played the harlot, departing from their God.” 
Hosea used strong language against his fellow Israelites, calling them harlots because they had violated their vows to remain faithful to the one true God by adopting the false gods of the pagan nations into their own system of worship. 

In essence, they compromised God’s Word. 
Q: Is it possible that Christians today, and particularly Christian leaders—in their zeal to make Christianity more enticing—are actually “playing the harlot” too? 

Here is what I mean. “And there is nothing new under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9). You see, ever since Adam sinned, man’s sin-cursed nature hasn’t changed. Paul had this battle: “For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the working out of the good is not. For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want” (Romans 7:18–19). 
The same situation as in ancient Israel, albeit portrayed in a different way and using different terminology, is happening today. I suggest much of the church today is really no different when we consider this sin of harlotry. Sadly, many Christians, including many Christian
leaders (pastors, seminary and Bible college professors, Christian college professors, and so on), have adopted evolutionary
geology, biology, astronomy, and anthropology, along with belief in millions of years, and they have mixed such beliefs with God’s Word.

Because such beliefs are founded on an antibiblical, anti-God worldview, I do humbly submit that such is harlotry no different than that of the Israelites. So I challenge those who do compromise God’s Word in Genesis by adding man’s ideas to contemplate these things." Ken Ham

Human reason can not find out God

"Human reason sees many contradictions in Christ; for human reason can not find out God. Canst thou by searching find out God? Canst thou find out the Almighty unto perfection? It is as high as heaven; Job 11:7, 8. 

In the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knows not God... because the foolishness of God is wiser than men... God bath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; and base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things that are not, to bring to naught things that are: that no flesh should glory in His presence. 1 Cor. 1:21-29."

Creation Moment 10/25/2026 - Faith in which? God or "science"?

If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; Colossians 1:23

"Science can't even conceivably give us anything more certain than the
faith
we place in the essential propositions undergirding science, which means science will never be the primary path to knowing, much less the only path to knowing. 
Faith has always been more fundamental to human knowledge than science, and this will never change."

.....finished from the foundation of the world

.... the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world....For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into My rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. 
Revelation 13:8/Hebrews 4:3

"Christ was not alone in making His great sacrifice. 
It was the fulfillment of the covenant made between Him and His Father before the foundation of the world was laid. 
With clasped hands they had entered into the solemn pledge that Christ would become the surety for the human race if they were overcome by Satan’s sophistry....The covenant of grace is not a new truth, for it existed in the mind of God from all eternity. This is why it is called the everlasting covenant."

Creation Moment 10/24/2026 - Fashioned in intricate unity

"The human heart does not beat like a perfect clock. 
The time between beats changes as the body breathes, moves, rests, and reacts to the world around it. New research shows that these
changes are part of a feedback system linking the heart, brain, and nerves. The heart keeps a steady rhythm while remaining flexible when needed, much like a well-built control system.

Denis Noble has studied heart rhythm for many years. In 1960, he made one of the first mathematical models of electrical work in heart cells. Real hearts proved more complex. Noble recently described heart pacing as several “interlocking physiological networks” that can help keep the heart’s rhythm going when one part of the system is disturbed. Engineers call this robustness, meaning a key job can continue when conditions change.

The heart does this through parts that work together. 
--Special cells in the sinoatrial node set the basic electrical rhythm. 
--Ion channels move charged particles across cell walls (membranes) while calcium inside heart cells helps control each beat. 
--These parts also respond to signals from the rest of the body.

That coordination is significant because no single part controls the whole system by itself. The basic rhythm begins in the heart, but breathing, blood pressure, the body’s activity, and nerve signals can modify that rhythm moment by moment. In engineering terms, the heart is not running an open-loop command. It is doing the opposite: continually receiving information, comparing conditions, and adjusting its output. This gives the system a way to respond without neglecting its main function.

A July 2026 study added another dimension to this organized network. Researchers measured heart rate variability (HRV), the small changes in time between beats, while recording brain activity. They found brain areas tied to signals moving toward the brain and other areas tied to signals moving back toward heart control.

Clearly, the changes between heartbeats are not just useless “jitter.” Breathing, exercise, age, test conditions, and nerve signals can affect HRV. Accordingly, new scientific guidelines warn against treating HRV as if it had only one cause. Many inputs work through a linked control system that keeps adjusting the heart’s response.

This setup shows biological flexibility. The heart can change its
timing and output, but that flexibility depends on firm limits. Special tissues must carry electrical signals. Ion channels must move the right ions. Calcium must be controlled. Blood must still move in the right direction.


Engineers build reliable systems in much the same way. Sensors detect change and inform the controls, which then adjust the outputs. The heartbeat shows sensing, communication, feedback, backup pathways, and controlled responses working together.

Job said, “Your hands have made me and fashioned me, an intricate unity” (Job 10:8). Heart research gives us another reason to value that description. A healthy heart is not a rigid clock, nor is it a loose set of random events. It is a linked system that can change when needed while doing the work required for life. The heart’s changing rhythm is another sign of the Creator’s careful workmanship." ICR

Rebuttal to 4 points of the Sabbath Debate

"First, God gave all Ten Commandments to Israel at Mt. Sinai. 
Q: Does this mean that the Ten Commandments were binding only upon Israel because God revealed them to them? 
A: To answer yes would be absurd! It defies logic to say that nine of the Ten Commandments apply to every one but only one
applies exclusively to the Jews
. 
God gave the Ten Commandments to Israel because they were His people at that time. However, that does not mean that they were binding only upon literal Israel. The text does not say that the 
Sabbath was a sign exclusively between God and literal Israel.
 
Second, the motivation for the observance of the Sabbath transcends literal Israel because creation is the reason why the Sabbath is a sign between God and His people. That is to say, Israel must keep the Sabbath because God established it as a sign of creation. 
Q: Would it make any sense to think that Israel alone was required to keep the Sabbath in commemoration of creation? Do not all human beings need to remember that God created the heavens, the earth and everything in them? 

Third, Galatians 3:28, 29 states that those who are ‘in Christ’ are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise. 
--If Christians are Abraham’s seed, then they are members of Israel and as such should keep the Sabbath. 

Finally, Isaiah 56:4-7 clearly states that the Sabbath was intended for Gentiles as well as Jews and Jesus explicitly affirmed that the Sabbath was made for man (Mark 2:27). Thus, our Lord taught that the Sab bath was a creation institution that He made it for the benefit of man. The use of the word anthropos by Jesus in Mark 2:27 is significant. He did not say He made the Sabbath for Israel but rather for ‘humankind’ (NRSV)."

Creation Moment 10/23/2026 - National Geographic Comes Clean on Neanderthals

....and ye fools, when will ye be wise? Psalm 94:8

"A 2026 National Geographic “Stones and Bones” article on October 9 has contrasted the once-common, openly racist teaching (or assertions) of evolutionists with the facts unearthed by researchers over the past century. The article also tells a true story regarding an article about human evolution written in 1916 by Theodore Roosevelt that casts reproach on his otherwise stellar reputation. The real blame, however, should fall on the Darwinian scientists who influenced his thinking.

Neanderthal Man was once considered the premier evidence for human evolution. Today, it is widely acknowledged that Neanderthals were fully human like us. The revised view became evident on the cover of the October 2008 issue of National
Geographic
magazine, which labeled Neanderthals “The Other Humans.” (See National Geographic cover, right.)

In the Oct 2026 National Geographic article, Cornell University graduate and science writer Nicholas St. Fleur sharply criticizes a 1916 essay written by Theodore Roosevelt.
In that essay, Roosevelt surveyed the evidence for human evolution as it was understood in the early 20th century. He accompanied his text with illustrations by famed paleoartist Charles R. Knight.

Both the article and its illustrations represent an enormous embarrassment for evolutionists today, effectively illustrating how a handful of fragmented bones were once used to construct an elaborate evolutionary narrative complete with multi-thousand-year timelines. This bias deceived one of America’s great presidents.
The entire evolutionary case Roosevelt presented has since been thoroughly dismantled by mainline science. As is obvious, Roosevelt, a keen naturalist and published ornithologist, deeply “admired Darwin (whose work he was reading at the precocious age of ten), and he wasn’t shy about telling the world” what he believed to be the firmly established fact of human evolution from some hypothetical ape ancestor.

Furthermore, Roosevelt credited Darwin with “convincing practically all men of trained intelligence that the animal world, including man, has developed by evolution, not by an infinity of special creations,” adding that “The law of evolution is as fundamental to our understanding of life as the law of gravitation is to our understanding of the inanimate universe.”

Roosevelt’s unshakeable faith in evolution motivated his 1916 National Geographic piece. The primary evidence he cited consisted of Neanderthals, Piltdown Man, Java Man and Heidelberg Man (Homo heidelbergensis). All three of these supposed ‘missing links’ have since been discredited as evidence of transitional forms in human ancestry.

Roosevelt’s Fake Neanderthals
St. Fleur aimed his sharpest criticism at Roosevelt’s portrayal of Neanderthals, noting that Neanderthals are now recognized as our extinct cousins rather than inferior evolutionary rivals who disappeared over 40,000 years ago as had previously been claimed.
Roosevelt described Neanderthals as savages who were more advanced than Piltdown Man, yet placed them lower on the evolutionary ladder than any living human group.

Deceived by a Biased Artist
St. Fleur highlights how Charles R. Knight’s illustrations reinforced
this bias by portraying
Neanderthals as hunched figures wearing makeshift fur loincloths and wielding crude wooden clubs to beat women. Directly opposite the Neanderthal stood an enlightened “Cro-Magnon Man” (i.e., anatomically modern human), shown upright painting a bison on a cave wall by the warm light of an oil lamp.
Commenting on the stark visual contrast drawn between Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon, St. Fleur noted:
"Both Roosevelt and Knight were echoing the scientific sentiment at that time that Neanderthals were dumb and brutish, imagery that has plagued Homo neanderthalensis to various degrees since its discovery in 1856. But now, more than a century after America’s “Rough Rider” president maligned Neanderthals within our yellow borders, scientists are giving the archaic species some long-overdue justice."

The reason for this is that decades of archaeological discoveries have thoroughly overturned these early caricatures:
"Decades of research have reshaped our image of Neanderthals, showing they were likely a sophisticated, intelligent branch of humanity, possibly even capable of art, culture, and empathy. Archaeological clues from scattered sites suggest that some may have buried their dead, practiced rudimentary dentistry, hunted birds at night, managed hearths, manufactured red ocher, constructed structures from cave stalagmites, and more."

Then, in 1864, a geologist named William King evaluated the
skeletal remains through an evolutionary framework, formally classifying them as
Homo neanderthalensis—the first designated extinct human species. In his original paper, King emphasized the creature’s primitiveness:
“Considering that the Neanderthal skull is eminently simian, both in its general and particular characters, I feel myself constrained to believe that the thoughts and desires which once dwelt within it never soared beyond those of the brute.”

This look at the history of the attempts to document human evolution history in 1916 illustrated the firm unquestioning belief in human evolution by its adherents. This is in spite of the fact that every pillar of support for evolution in 1916 has been demolished by the progress of science made by the scientists themselves. One has to wonder how much of the proof of human evolution used to support the theory today will likewise be shown to be false in the future."

A perversion of the Scriptures

Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary....Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood He entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us....It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Hebrews 9:1,12,23


"There are many who try to blend these two systems, using the texts that speak of the ceremonial law to prove that the moral law has been abolished; but this is a perversion of the Scriptures. 
--The distinction between the two systems is broad and clear. 
--The ceremonial system was made up of symbols pointing to Christ, to His sacrifice and His priesthood. This ritual law, with its sacrifices and ordinances, was to be performed by the Hebrews until type met antitype in the death of Christ, the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world. Then all the sacrificial offerings were to cease."

Creation Moment 10/22/2026 - Questions pop up for Materialists

Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,... 2 Peter 3:3
"Questions pop up from the proposition that the mind is essentially material.
Q: What is consciousness? A recent paper in PNAS assumes human
consciousness evolved and differs only in degree, not in kind, from that of the animals. Materialists have a burden to prove their consciousness accords with reality.
Q: What is scientific evidence, and how can we trust it? A PhysOrg article assumes scientists can be objective and unbiased – loaded words for an evolved monkey’s brain.
Q: What is reason, compared with madness, and who decides who is mad? (see Science book review about psychiatry’s controversial diagnostic manual DSM-5). Materialists must convince skeptics that they are the sane ones, yet it would be insane to consider reason or logic as evolvable entities.
Q: What is justice and fairness? Another PNAS paper considers those moral qualities nothing more than game theory applied to animal behavior. Honesty, though, is another precondition for science. The authors must convince their readers they are interested in the truth, not just playing games." CEH

Are ALL days Holy?

Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
Exodus 20:9,10


"The radio host argued, as many Christians do today, that all days belong to God and therefore we should worship Him every day.

No one would argue against the idea that all days belong to God and
that we should worship Him every day. 
--However, the Bible simply does not teach that all days are holy. The Fourth Commandment leaves no doubt that six days are for our secular labor and work but the seventh day Sabbath is holy because God set it apart from the rest.
--By way of analogy, the Bible tells us that all the money that we manage belongs to God (Haggai 2:8). 
Q: Does this mean that all the money we have is holy and we must return 100% of our money to God? 
A: Of course not! Although all the money that we have belongs to God, only 10% is holy— the tithe. Likewise, all days belong to God but only the seventh is holy."

Creation Moment 10/21/2026 - Only the Biblical worldview

And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7

"Only the Biblical worldview allows a consistent framework for doing science. 
One must believe that God, who cannot lie, created a logical, mathematically-structured reality, and gave His creatures the capacity to explore and understand it. 
Otherwise, if it is the result of a blind evolutionary process, how can one trust the sensations of a physical brain that emerged only for survival?

With Bible in hand, the world becomes comprehensible. 
Math works. 
Reality is approachable through our intelligently-designed senses that were given to us for the purpose of knowing truth."

What "emerged" (Grokipedia vs. Wikipedia about the SABBATH)

Jimmy Wales' Wikipedia squares off against Elon Musks Grokipedia over the SABBATH

Wikipedia:

Opening of article --
"In Abrahamic religions, the Sabbath (/ˈsæbəθ/) or Shabbat (Biblical Hebrew: שַׁבָּת [ʃa'bat]) is a day set aside for rest and worship.
--According to the Book of Exodus, the Sabbath is a day of rest on the seventh day commanded by God to be kept as a holy day of rest
as God rested in the Genesis creation narrative. Sabbath observance is commanded in the Ten Commandments: "
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy" in the Masoretic text contrasting with the Samaritan Pentateuch which says "Keep the Sabbath day to keep it holy."
--A day of rest is observed in Islam (Friday), Judaism (Saturday), and Christianity (Sunday). Observances similar to or descended from the Sabbath also exist in other religions. The term may be used more generally to describe similar weekly observances in other religions.
--The Sabbath might have been influenced by Babylonian mid-month rest days and lunar cycles, though its origins remain debated."
OBSERVATION:
Wikipdeia's article is written in the WOKE TONE as if sitting in the faculty lounge of academia. 
It claims that Christianity observes Sunday without explaining that not all Christians do and why. So it leaves the impression that Sunday is the holy day naturally for Christendom.
It mentions of other religions here which is irrelevant to this article
(there would naturally be an article about "holy days" that would be separate as this one is supposed to be specific about the "SABBATH").
So it leaves the impression in it's opening that holy days are just something all religions do meaning it's ALL made up which would include Christianity. To make my point that that is their view they are implying notice the following paragraph to it makes the claim that Sabbath emerged from Babylon. This smacks of the WOKE TONE.
BOTTOM LINE: Wikipedia leaves the impression that the SABBATH emerged from ancient Babylonian (paganism) but that Sunday is the obvious, natural day for observing it for Christendom.

Grokipedia:
Opening of article --
"The Sabbath, from the Hebrew shabbat meaning "to cease" or "rest," designates the seventh day of the week—Saturday in the Gregorian calendar—as a mandated day of cessation from labor, rooted in the Biblical account of God's rest following six days of creation.
--In the Hebrew Bible, this observance is enshrined in the Fourth Commandment, requiring the Israelites to "remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy" by refraining from work, with rationale tied both to creation and the Exodus deliverance.
--In Judaism, Shabbat commences at sunset Friday and concludes at
nightfall Saturday, encompassing a 25-hour period marked by ritual preparations, candle lighting, festive meals, synagogue services, and Torah study, while prohibiting 39 categories of creative work (melachot) derived from tabernacle construction activities to preserve the day's sanctity.
This practice, central to Jewish identity, emphasizes spiritual renewal over mundane labor, with historical enforcement varying from strict halakhic adherence to more flexible interpretations in modern denominations.
--Among Christians, Sabbath observance diverged early: while Jesus upheld its intent without abrogating it, post-resurrection emphasis on Sunday worship as the Lord's Day emerged, commemorating the resurrection rather than enforcing seventh-day rest for most traditions, though groups like Seventh-day Adventists retain Saturday observance based on unchanged Biblical perpetuity. 
--Debates persist over its ongoing obligation under the new covenant, with some viewing it as fulfilled in Christ rather than a perpetual ritual."
OBSERVATION:
At least it acknowledges that Sunday observance "emerged" overtime and WAS NOT the view of Christ.
It also rightly claims that "some" (meaning not all) Christians claims it was "fulfilled" in Christ.
It also is written in a tone that is NOT that stuffy woke/academic elitist approach.

BOTTOM LINE: Grokipedia leaves the impression that the SABBATH was ordained by God (the God of Creation at Creation) but that Sunday emerged over time for many in, but not all of Christendom.

From the "Really" File - (REALLY John Paul?)

Thus were they defiled with their own works, 
and went a whoring with their own inventions. 
Psalm 106:39

"Circa 1959, a widowed Brazilian truck driver named Neiva Chaves Zelaya claimed to begin receiving visions from what she believed to be extraterrestrial spirits. 
After linking up with a prominent medium, she founded a religious
movement based on her visions called the
Spiritist Union White Arrow which eventually evolved into the Valley of the Dawn. 
The largest alternative religion in Brazil to this day, Valley of the Dawn boasts a massive complex outside the capital city of Brasilia where spectators and journalists flock to watch their fascinating rituals unfold. Known as "Jaguars," Valley of the Dawn's mediums wear brightly-colored robes, carry spears, and are believed to be the reincarnation of extraterrestrial giants who kickstarted human evolution 32,000 years ago and inspired humanity's greatest feats, like the pyramids. 
And although this bizarre religion began with a single truck driver who claimed to experience visions of aliens, it now has some 600 temples across Brazil, Portugal, Germany, Japan, Uruguay, and the United States — as well as 130,000 members around the world.
From the "Really" File

Just outside Brazil's capital city of Brasília lies a fortress belonging to a religious group. Followers of Vale do Amanhecer (in their native Portuguese) believe a spaceship from the planet Capela hovers above the Earth here. It acts as a vortex, sucking up all the negative energy that the group's healers banish from humanity. As such, they believe this area to be the spiritual capital of civilization. Calling themselves Jaguars, the healers use their "cosmic energies" in spirit-healing rituals. Jaguars are the reincarnated descendants of extraterrestrials sent by God.
The Catholic Church "officially disapproves" of the religion, but Pope John Paul II apparently sent them a letter of blessing." msn
