The Holy 3

"Matthew 28:19 (Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:) clearly points out that the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead. 

“There are three living persons of the heavenly trio. In the name of

these three powers—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—those who receive Christ by living faith are baptized, [a clear reference to the baptismal formula in Matthew 28:18] and these powers will cooperate with the obedient subjects of heaven in their efforts to live the new life in Christ.” Special Testimonies, Series B, No. 7, pp. 62, 63 first published in 1905."Stephen Bohr

Creation Moment 10/8/2026 - Earth's waters

And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2

"Homogeneous accretion of the Earth in the inner Solar System (Sossi and Bower, Nature Astronomy, 27 March 2026) Their research has overturned conventional assumptions in planetary science that were held for several decades.

Secular theories of Earth’s formation have leaned heavily on the idea that our planet was built from a mixture of inner and outer Solar System materials. This framework was especially important for explaining how Earth acquired volatile substances such as water. Yet Sossi and Bower (2026) utilized a novel methodology based heavily

on experimental data and less on assumed mechanisms to conclude that earth’s composition is “entirely of material from the inner Solar System, distinct from any combination of existing meteorites.”

The implications of these findings are enormous, as it contradicts several foundational secular assumptions about how our planet formed. In particular, it suggests that Earth is not simply a collage of known meteorite types. Its identity cannot be simply reconstructed by mixing known meteorite compositions. Sossi and Bower’s research also points to a greater level of stability of the early universe than was once thought and indicates that water on earth was not ‘seeded’ from far away. 

This article reflects on some of the implications of these findings, and how this new evidence increasingly aligns with aspects of the Biblical account in Genesis.

Sossi and Bowen’s research highlights at least three distinct findings that appear to resonate well within the Biblical description of origins, namely:

The earth’s water was present early in its formation and not seeded later from a distance.

The earth formed from a coherent source, not multiple meteorites, unlike conventional views thought.
The inner and outer planets are more stable than once thought."

What Christ Extolled

"Jesus repeatedly warned against the

danger of upward mobility and
the virtue of downward. 

He extolled the simplicity of a child: Matthew 18:2, 3 “Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”

Creation Moment 10/7/2026 -Turning Romans 1:20 on Atheists

For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—His eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. Romans 1:20

"Meyer cites lines of evidence from cosmology, physics, and molecular biology. But, the surviving New Atheists object, science must “reject the idea of a designing mind because no such entity can be directly observed.” Is that some sort of scientific first principle? Not at all, as is also becoming clearer:
"Dark matter …, which has been in the news of late, was first

inferred not because it could be seen, but because — if it existed — it would explain the otherwise unexplainable motions of galaxies within distant galaxy clusters. The fact is that scientists often infer unobservable causes from their observable effects, and the inference to intelligent design from the observable features of living cells has this same character."

Purpose of the Sermon on the Mount

And He opened His mouth, and taught them, saying,... 

Matthew 5:2

"The words of Christ on the mount 

*were an expression of that which had been the unspoken teaching of His life, but which the people had failed to comprehend. 

*They could not understand how, having such great power, He neglected to use it in securing what they regarded as the chief good.

*Their spirit and motives and methods were the opposite of His. 

*While they claimed to be very jealous for the honor of the law, self-glory was the real object which they sought; and Christ would make it manifest to them that the lover of self is a transgressor of the law." E.G.W.

Creation Moment 10/6/2026 - New Tree Research

And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. Genesis 1:11

"A newly discovered role for tension wood: the “muscle” trees use to correct their posture (National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and Environment [INRAE], 2 Sept 2026). Through controlled experiments, scientists found that trees have a sense of their position in space.

"A research team from INRAE and the University Clermont Auvergne has shown that trees are capable of correcting a curvature they detect in their stems through a specific biological process. In the study, young trees with bent stems were placed in an experimental set-up that prevented them from sensing their orientation relative to light and gravity. The only sense remaining to the trees was the

perception of their own curvature. Under these conditions, the scientists observed the formation of a particular type of wood, known as tension wood, which acts like a muscle to correct the curvature of the stem, allowing it to realign within a few weeks. Published in New Phytologist, the findings show how plants—under natural conditions—finely perceive their own shape and combine this information with signals relating to their orientation to adjust their posture."

The new findings build on work from 2012 at INRAE that detected a proprioceptive sense in plants. This sense, the ability to detect position of on organism’s body parts in 3-D space, was “long believed to be specific to animals.” A young tree growing on a mountain slope, for instance, will grow tension wood on its upper side to cause it to curve up to a vertical position. Until the current work, the biological mechanism was unknown.

It took about 10 days for young poplar trees in an experimental setup deprived of information about light and position to fix their orientation. They responded to their sense of their own orientation by growing tension wood in just the right position, correcting their growth pattern.

"The formation of tension wood on the upper side, which had caused the stem to bend upwards, ceased when the device was activated, while a wood identical in every respect formed on the opposite side. The latter appears to function as an antagonistic muscle, generating a pulling force in the opposite direction and progressively restoring the stem to a straight form."

Simple, isn’t it? Problem solved by scientific experiment? Not exactly; like everything else in biology,

"Tension wood formation is a complex biological process that is regulated at the cellular level and unfolds through several successive stages. The process is also governed by the plant’s proprioception."

The use of antagonistic forces sounds akin to animal muscles that grow in pairs, like biceps and triceps, to counteract one another and maintain balanced movement. Plants, too, have a “genuine sensorimotor loop” that takes advantage of its proprioceptive sense and grows the appropriate amount of tension wood in the right place to achieve balanced vertical growth. It takes fine tuning to achieve this:

"These results show that plants combine fine perceptions of their environment (such as light and gravity) with an awareness of their own shape. They integrate and process this information to activate tension wood in different directions, thereby achieving or maintaining the most appropriate posture. These key abilities contribute to the resilience of trees when faced with extreme events that can alter their position, such as storms or landslides, a trait of particular importance in the context of climate change."

Other than that brief nod to political correctness, ("climate change") this Darwin-free press release opened up windows into additional complex processes at work that are too easily taken for granted." CEH

How the Holy Spirit is poured out

"Thus, like everything else, the Spirit is from the Father through the

Son to us: Acts 2:32, 33 “This Jesus [1] God has raised up, of which we are all witnesses. Therefore, being [2] exalted to the right hand of God, and having [3] received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, [4] He poured out this which you now see and hear.”

Creation Moment 10/5/2026 - SEED FACTORIES

"Plant seeds. What were thought to be little dead particles with inactive DNA turn out to be factories of molecular machines pre-loaded and ready-made for action. A seed “does not just pre-build its power plant generators; it pre-installs the entire factory floor.” 

A seed could not germinate if it were not so equipped with the tools and information in place, ready to respond to the call. 

Moreover, a seed needs to be buried in the right environment for a new crop to flourish.

As he walked and taught outdoors, Christ spoke metaphorically of plants and seeds. He taught that even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like the wildflowers on the hillsides where He sat teaching. He spoke of a sower spreading seeds on four kinds of soil: hardpan, shallow, weedy, and fertile. He spoke of the inborn capacity of seeds—even the smallest of seeds—to multiply and spread. And prophesying his own death, He said that “unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit” (John 12:24)."

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26

"The reason why it has been so difficult for some to believe that the Holy Spirit is a person is because of the metaphors that the Bible writers used describe the Spirit’s work. 

He is referred to as a dove, oil, rain, fire, and wind. However, the

Spirit is not these things. 

The dove symbolizes peace, oil keeps the lamp of God’s Word burning, rain refreshes spiritual life, and fire cleanses the life from sin.

IN the NEWS - Relics of a Man

Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 26:1 pretty sure God would include Jawbones in that....just saying....

"For Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s beatification in St. Louis, teenager James Fulton Engstrom presented Cardinal Luis Tagle, the main

celebrant, with a first-class relic of Sheen: the mandible, the jawbone that forms the chin and lower jawline and is the only moving bone in the human skull.

Engstrom was the recipient of the miracle in 2010 for Sheen’s beatification. Minutes after being born, he was not breathing nor could emergency workers or hospital staff help him. He was dead for 61 minutes — and as doctors were about to record his time of death, James came to life. As the Church has officially proclaimed, through Sheen’s intercession, the baby began breathing and was healed of any abnormalities that could occur in a way medical science could not explain.

The mandible was chosen because of Sheen’s speaking prowess.

“Using the jawbone is very significant because of his ability to communicate the faith,” Bishop Louis Tylka of Peoria, Illinois, Sheen’s home diocese, told the National Catholic Register, a sister publication of EWTN News.
“And, of course, his ability to proclaim the faith, to speak out, the faith to preach and to teach” was paramount for Sheen, Tylka, who concelebrated the beatification Mass, said."

Creation Moment 10/4/2026 - Evolution's rabbit out of a hat trick

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools... 

Romans 1:22
"Atheists often promote themselves as intelligent, logical, scientific, rational, etc. They even had a proposal to call themselves ‘brights’! The aggressive ‘new Atheists’, such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and company, like to portray those of us who believe in a supernatural Creator as irrational, unscientific, unintelligent, ignorant, or even ‘needing help’ (Dawkins). The entertainment industry often reinforces these perceptions by portraying ‘religious’ people (Christians particularly, and especially church leaders) as buffoons or hillbillies (almost never as a university professor, for example).

Reality runs against these perceptions. Isaac Newton, the greatest scientific mind of all time, was a Christian believer, as were other founders of modern science.

There is much more to say. Atheists believe that everything came about by purely material processes—the universe, life, mind, and morality. 

Q: However, do they have a rational, logical basis for this belief?

They actually believe in miracles without any reasonable cause for

the miracles. That is, they believe in magic, or the occurrence of things without a sufficient cause. What we commonly call ‘magic’ is actually illusion. 

For example, a rabbit does not just appear from an empty hat; there has to be a logical physical explanation; a sufficient cause. Illusion needs an illusionist. Stuff does not happen without something to cause it to happen. Even young children understand this law of causation. Magic, where things ‘just happen’, is the stuff of fairytales—there is no such thing." CMI

First Exo-Planet Moon Found?
...so....I'm sure the Lord God that spoke into existence the planets and our solar system moons spoke others into existence too since He made other planets also.

"In a new study, astronomers detail observations of what could be the first known exosatellite - a natural object orbiting a world beyond our solar system in the same way our Moon orbits Earth. However, the massive, gaseous body they observed bears little resemblance to the Moon we know.

The study, published July 22 in Nature, describes a stellar system some 73 light-years from Earth that exhibits what they call a three-tiered hierarchy - in other words, an object orbiting another object that orbits its host star. Our own solar system also has three tiers: The Moon orbits Earth, which orbits the Sun.
"The exosatellite is clearly massive enough to be a planet, but it does not orbit a star, though it orbits an object that orbits a star,” Hoy said in an ESO press release. “Being the third wheel in this system makes us want to call it a moon, even if it is nothing like the small, rocky moons we have in our system.” msn

Feller of the Trees

Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are spoiled: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down. Zechariah 11:2

"When in the forest there is heard the crash of a falling oak, it is a sign that the woodman is abroad, and every tree in the whole company may tremble lest to-morrow the sharp edge of the axe should find it out.
We are all like trees marked for the axe, and the fall of one should

remind us that for every one, whether great as the cedar, or humble as the fir, the appointed hour is stealing on apace. I trust we do not, by often hearing of death, become callous to it.
---May we never be like the birds in the steeple, which build their nests when the bells are tolling, and sleep quietly when the solemn funeral peals are startling the air. May we regard death as the most weighty of all events, and be sobered by its approach.
--It ill behoves us to sport while our eternal destiny hangs on a thread. The sword is out of its scabbard—let us not trifle; it is furbished, and the edge is sharp—let us not play with it. He who does not prepare for death is more than an ordinary fool, he is a madman.
**When the voice of God is heard among the trees of the garden, let fig tree and sycamore, and elm and cedar, alike hear the sound thereof.

Be ready, servant of Christ,

 for thy Master comes on a sudden, 

when an ungodly world least expects Him.

Creation Moment 10/2/2026 - Study of those 420 chemical reactions

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God.

1 Corinthians 3:19 NLT

"The researchers studied 420 chemical reactions found in cells. These reactions help make amino acids, parts of RNA, vitamins, and other needed materials. The team compared genes, proteins, and chemical pathways found in living things today. From these data, they built a model of how early cell chemistry may have formed.

Their model begins with the last universal common ancestor, or LUCA. They suggest that LUCA had enzymes for about half of the reactions they studied. Additional reactions may have been driven by metals near hot-water vents. The team tested one part of this idea in the lab and found that the metal palladium could help phosphite add phosphate groups to certain molecules. This is important because adding a phosphate group produces ATP, a molecule that stores and transfers energy needed for cellular work.

The experiment shows that metals can help certain reactions occur, and that is where an engineering view lends some insight. A working machine needs more than parts that can perform separate tasks. The parts must be arranged, controlled, and linked so the whole system works. A cell faces the same challenge on a far greater scale. It must store coded data in DNA, copy that data, make proteins, control energy, maintain a membrane, repair damage, remove waste, and reproduce, all in the right place and at the right time.

But just because palladium assisted one reaction doesn’t mean it explains how the whole system originated. That is the first problem the study presents.

There is another issue. The model does not begin with bare chemicals. It begins with LUCA already having a genetic code and many enzymes. Heinrich Heine University noted that the chemical reactions studied are widely shared among living things, much like the genetic code itself. Other conventional scientists have proposed that LUCA was already quite complex. A 2024 study estimated that it had at least 2.5 million DNA base pairs and about 2,600 proteins. Those estimates are based on models, but they show that organized, functional biology was already present.

From a creation standpoint, the chemistry itself is not surprising. Matter has stable properties, and metals can act as useful catalysts as they modify and speed chemical reactions, just as the palladium did. But a catalyst is not a cell—it’s not a form of life. 

This study therefore reveals an important divide. Chemistry can explain how some reactions happen, but it doesn’t yet explain how those reactions became a coded, controlled, self-reproducing system. The more clearly we see system-level design in cells, the stronger indication we have of their Creator’s workmanship."

France appears to be reviving, with baptisms of adults and teenagers hitting record levels this year in France, up 20 per cent over 2025.
The strength of the Catholic Church, which remains the largest religion in France, was on full display on Saturday, as an estimated 800,000 faithful flocked to the Champs-Élysées and the Place de la Concorde in central Paris for an outdoor mass led by Pope Leo XIV.
Driving down the cleared historic avenue, an honor usually reserved for French Presidents on Bastille Day, Leo was greeted by thousands of cheering people, while blessing children as he made his way from Arc de Triomphe to the Place de la Concorde. 

Meanwhile, priests dotted the avenue, hearing open-air confessions from the faithful.
The Pope noted that there was a long history of French people who sacrificed for their faith, including Saints Irenaeus, Martin, and Francis de Sales, while adding that there are people who to this day “continue to devote themselves to the cause of life, the family, truth, peace, fraternity and justice.”.... “God’s surprising work” in combating the age of secularism that was in ushered into being during the Revolution.
Later that night, Pope Leo held an evening vigil for 80,000 young Catholics at France’s national soccer stadium in Paris, where he became the first pope to venerate the Holy Tunic of Christ, which has been venerated as Christ’s tunic in France for over 12 centuries after it was gifted to Emperor Charlemagne from Empress Irene of Constantinople around the year 800.

After the Mass in Paris, Pope Leo will travel to Lourdes in the foothills of the Pyrenees, where he is expected to greet over 150,000 pilgrims. The town and its Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes became one of the Catholic world’s top pilgrimage destinations following the 1858 apparitions of the Virgin Mary to St. Bernadette at the Grotto of Massabielle. Pope Leo will be the first to visit the site since Benedict XVI visited in 2008 for the 150th anniversary of the apparitions."

Creation Moment 10/1/2026 - Ushikawa Man DEBUNKED

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. 

For it is written, 

He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. 

1 Corinthians 3:19

"Between 1957 and 1959 two fossilized limb bone parts were uncovered in Japan. Scientists thought the bones were human—a portion of humerus (upper arm bone) and the head of a femur (thigh bone). So they were dubbed ‘Ushikawa Man’ because they were found at the Ushikawa (牛川 = Ox River’) district in Toyohashi city, Aichi Prefecture, central Japan.

Scientists claimed that ‘Ushikawa Man’ was a male human who lived somewhere between 129–774 thousand years (ka) ago. This would make him Japan’s most ancient fossil human. A few decades later, the ‘date’ began to be progressively revised down to about 20 ka ago, still among the country’s oldest fossil humans. That is, until recently.

A 2024 study has re-examined the bones and discovered that they

are in fact the bones of a brown bear. The ‘humerus’ was actually a radius bone—from the bear’s forearm, not its upper arm. And the femur head was also from the bear. ‘Ushikawa Man’ actually never was.

This is not the first time that bear and human bones have been confused. A bone found in a cave in Alaska in the 1990s, even though found near shell beads, was thought to belong to a bear. When re-examined in 2019, it turned out instead to belong to a Native American woman.

Incidents like this should remind us to be cautious about interpretations of the past when the physical evidence is scant. In fact, this is only one of many instances in which a further examination of the physical evidence has led to museum displays correcting their signage. The obvious lesson is that we should be especially cautious about interpretations of physical evidence which promote or convey an evolutionary worldview that contradicts Biblical history." CMI

Creation Moment 9/30/2026 - What marks the commencement of the first week of time?

"When it pleased this infinite Being, He gave existence to our earth. Out of nothing God created all things; “so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” Hebrews 11:3. This act of creation is that event which marks the commencement of the first week of time.

On the first day of the week God created the heaven and the earth. The earth thus called into existence was without form and void, and total darkness covered the Creator’s work.

Each of the six days had been distinguished by the Creator’s work upon it; but the seventh was rendered memorable in a very different manner. And on the seventh day God ended his work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.” Genesis 2:2."

Creation Moment 9/29/2026 - Those jumping genes

So God created man.... Genesis 1:27

"Scientists recently found a “jumping gene” in an odd place. 

An RNA molecule from a tiny predatory bacterium had entered the cells of a very different microbe  Some reports said this could help genes spread between species. But the study did not show a new genetic system forming. It showed an existing system moving genetic material from one cell to another.

The team studied Candidatus Velamenicoccus archaeovorus, a small bacterium that attacks other microbes and carries a group I intron inside one of its ribosomal RNA genes. An intron is a piece of genetic material that can be cut out of an RNA copy. Some introns can also move to new places. Using special probes, the team found this intron RNA inside dead cells of an archaeon called Methanothrix soehngenii. That showed the RNA had crossed from one kind of microbe into another.

But crossing into another cell is not the same as becoming part of the other cell’s DNA. Furthermore, the team did not show that the intron entered the archaeon’s genome, gave it a new trait, or passed it to later generations. Those steps would be needed before the event could lead to an inherited change.

The RNA itself has a useful shape. After the intron is cut out, it can form a circle. Many RNA molecules have open ends where enzymes can start breaking them down. A circle has no open ends, so it can last longer.

That shape matters because a moving RNA molecule must survive long enough to reach another cell. It must also keep the proper form needed for its next step. In an engineered system, durability is only useful if the part still works after transport. The same point applies here. Stability alone does not create a new function, but it can help preserve an existing one. Movement also depends on several other operational parts, such as the right RNA shape, the right DNA target, working enzymes, and a functional repair system.

Some group I introns use enzymes that cut DNA at set places. The cell’s repair system can then help copy the intron into that site, transitioning the information safely while maintaining the cell’s ability to function properly.

This is where the study becomes especially interesting from an engineering perspective. A successful transfer is not just one event. It is a chain of events. Each step depends on the successful completion of a prior step. If the RNA breaks down, the target is missed, or the repair fails, the process stops. The system works because several parts act in the right order.

Overall, the new research adds a useful fact to microbiology: RNA can move between very different microbes. But moving existing genetic material does not lead to the formation of an entirely new system—its operative processes continue as usual, as the Creator originally intended."
