Creation Moment 1/9/2026 - A Central Computer in our Cells

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

"Dr. Capaldi and his graduate students, led by Cristina Padilla, whose story is emphasized in the press release. Here’s how the press release begins:
"For decades, biologists have known that a protein complex called TORC1 acts as a master regulator of cell growth—turning growth
programs on when nutrients are available and shutting them down when conditions worsen. 
Now, a new study conducted at the University of Arizona reveals that TORC1 is far more sophisticated than previously believed. Instead of functioning as a simple on and off switch, TORC1 behaves more like a central computer that integrates different signals and then selectively turns specific pathways on and off – tuning metabolism, energy-intensive processes and cell division, all in real time."

LoNA appears when cells move from rich nutrients to poorer ones, not to starvation. In this state, the cell neither continues business as usual nor shuts down. 
Instead, it reorganizes itself. 
More than ninety percent of TORC1’s phosphorylation targets, the molecular settings through which it regulates cellular policy, shift to new configurations. Growth slows, but it does not stop. Metabolism is rebalanced. Transporters on the vacuole surface in yeast, or the lysosome in humans, are adjusted to draw in more resources. Autophagy begins in a limited and controlled way, recycling cellular components without triggering full shutdown.
t reveals TORC1 not as a simple pathway, but as a decision-making system with conditional logic, feedback, and distributed sensing. Calling it a “central computer” is not a metaphor of convenience." CEH

IN the NEWS - Declaring the Love of God in the Public Arena

Concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: Romans 1:3,4

"Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders responded to her
critics who questioned her authority and motives for issuing an official faith proclamation calling on state workers to honor Christ by granting them an additional paid day off on December 26 to celebrate the birth of Jesus. 
Rather than backing down under accusations of using her position as governor to proclaim Christian theology as part of an official state function, Sanders doubled down—using her office of governorship to unapologetically affirm that Jesus loves even her critics and that He died for their sins too."

Creation Moment 1/8/2026 - Packaging of Darwinism

Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway. Romans 11:10

"Historian of evolution Edward J. Larson wrote in 2004 that in the 19th century, evolution was accepted remarkably quickly in Western scientific and educated circles. One major reason was the
packaging that evolutionists employed. Had evolutionary beliefs been marketed as the materialistic philosophy they essentially were, Darwinism would have never made such headway in the West.

But because evolutionary beliefs were
packaged as “science” rather
than philosophy (or theology), this conferred two immediate advantages:
First, presenting evolutionary beliefs as science lent it immediate prestige and popular respect in both Europe and America. 
Second, once this framing was in place, any criticism of evolutionary beliefs could be played off as an “attack on Science” —or worse, as pseudoscience or religion masquerading as science—thus affording it near iron-clad protection from scrutiny."

IN the NEWS - Freezing Berlin in the name of another Gospel

I marvel that ye are so soon removed from Him 
that called you into the grace of Christ 
unto another gospel: 
Galatians 1:6

Berlin Freezes in the name of the Green Gospel:
"A group of self-described
climate activists has claimed responsibility for a massive power outage that hit five districts in southwestern Berlin, saying the action targeted the fossil fuel industry and “the rich.”
Up to 50,000 households and 2,200 commercial entities were affected by the blackout in the early hours of Saturday, a spokesman for the local electricity provider, Stromnetz Berlin, told the Berliner
Zeitung. “
Full restoration of power supply” is expected no sooner than January 8, according to the company. The residents of the affected areas would have to remain without power in “freezing temperatures” ranging from -7C to -1C, the paper reported.
Police are treating the incident as a targeted arson attack, according to local media. The blackout was caused by a blaze that hit a power bridge over the Teltow Canal, which goes through the southern part of the city. Several nursing homes and elderly care
centers had to be evacuated because of the incident
, according to a local fire department. 
Police also said they had received a letter signed by the “Volcano Group” on Saturday evening, in which the climate activists claimed responsibility for the incident. The group blamed the industrial extraction of natural resources for the “destruction” of Earth and that humanity “can no longer afford the rich.” 
The group then said they had “successfully sabotaged” a gas power plant, adding that their action was “socially beneficial” and targeted the fossil fuel industry.
According to the Berliner Zeitung, the group had carried out similar attacks in the past. They claimed responsibility for the sabotage of two power cables in southeastern Berlin in September. That attack also left around 50,000 households without power at the time."

Creation Moment 1/7/2026 - Peace vs. Darwinian Struggle

Peace I leave with you, 
My peace I give unto you: 
not as the world giveth, give I unto you.
 Let not your heart be troubled, 
neither let it be afraid. 
John 14:7

"In the years following Darwin, struggle became a dominant theme in western thought. Struggle was seen as a creative force driving progress in biology, society, economics, and war. It was used to justify imperialism, racial hierarchies, and eugenics.

Chess champion and philosopher Emanuel Lasker took this line in his 1906 book Kampf (rendered Struggle in the 1907 English translation). Hitler’s Mein Kampf, in English translation, kept the original German title, but some English versions rendered the title parenthetically as My Struggle.

Nietzsche reframed the Darwinian struggle as the will to power, an affirmative creative force where exceptional individuals overcome obstacles to achieve self-mastery, higher values, and cultural vitality.

We might therefore say that struggle, by extending natural selection and the competition inherent in it to all spheres of life, became the god of the Darwinian age."

Big Arrow of the Old Testament

For it is impossible for the 
blood of bulls and goats 
to take away sins. 
Hebrews 10:4

"A famous pastor once said that the Old Testament is a hindrance to the gospel. He said we need to just focus on Jesus. He said the Old
Testament
is a distraction. It almost makes one weep with how much of the rich tapestry of God’s revelation he has missed. 

Jesus Christ of the Gospels stands at the center of God’s plan for mankind, and He is woven throughout both the Old and New Testaments. 
The Old Testament is like a big arrow pointing to Jesus and what He came to do.

In the Old Testament, God instituted sacrifices for the nation of Israel. These were offered over and over again to cover the people’s sin. Tens of thousands of animals were ceremonially slaughtered by Jewish priests for centuries. 
The spilling of their blood vividly illustrated the deadly seriousness of sin. 

Every time the Jews came back to sacrifice, they got a bloody reminder that they were sinners and that animal sacrifice was temporary.
The Hebrew word for atonement, kaphar, has the idea of “covering,” not total removal (Leviticus 4:20). 
Animal sacrifices did not—and could not—remove sin, as Hebrews 10:4 clearly states.
By that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body
of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest stands daily at His service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God. (
Hebrews 10:10–12).

The phrase “take away” in verse 11 is translated from the Greek root periaireo, which does convey the idea of removal. The Levitical sacrifices pointed forward in time to the only one who can remove sin. Jesus Christ is the Lamb of God who shed his precious blood to accomplish the final perfect sacrifice. 
*Death is the payment for sin, so blood had to be shed. 
*But the blood of all those bulls and goats couldn’t take away sin. 
Q: Why? 
A: Because the animals aren’t related to us and aren’t divine!"

Creation Moment 1/6/2026 - Observations about TOI-561 b

Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds; Hebrews 1:2

"JWST observations of the ultra-hot super-Earth exoplanet TOI-561 b provide the strongest evidence to date for an atmosphere surrounding a rocky planet beyond our Solar System.
A team of astronomers led by Carnegie researchers has uncovered the clearest evidence so far that a rocky planet outside our Solar System possesses an atmosphere. The findings, reported in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, are based on observations from
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The data point to the presence of an atmosphere on an unlikely world: an ancient, extremely hot super-Earth that is thought to be covered by a global ocean of molten rock.

The planet, called TOI-561 b, is roughly twice as massive as Earth but is otherwise very different from our planet. Its extreme conditions are driven by its tight orbit around its star. While the star itself is slightly smaller and cooler than the Sun, TOI-561 b circles it at just one fortieth the distance between Mercury and the Sun. Because of this close orbit, the planet completes a full year in only 10.56 hours, and one hemisphere is constantly exposed to starlight.
“Based on what we know about other systems, astronomers would have predicted that a planet like this is too small and hot to retain its own atmosphere for long after formation,” explained Carnegie Science Postdoctoral Fellow Nicole Wallack, the paper’s second author. “But our observations suggest it is surrounded by a relatively thick blanket of gas, upending conventional wisdom about ultra-short-period planets.”
Within our own Solar System, planets that are both small and intensely heated were unable to keep the original gaseous envelopes they acquired early in their histories. 
*In contrast, TOI-561 b appears to have held on to its atmosphere even though it orbits a star that is much older than the Sun."

OBSERVATIONS:
1- TOI-561 b is obviously NOT older than it's sun....
2- Apparently it's formation isn't the age they think....

Miller on the Prophetic 7 Churches

“Were the Seven churches used as a figure of the whole Christian dispensation, or were they not?” 
I answer, In my humble opinion, they were. 

Because, first, the book of Revelation does evidently contain a prophecy of things which did not concern those seven literal churches in Asia; for those churches have long since passed away and be come extinct; yet the book of Revelation contains prophecies which are daily fulfilling, and have been for eighteen centuries. 

It is also said to be a revelation of things which must shortly come to pass. 
Revelation 1:1 The revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave unto Him, to show unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass. 
Not things that have been. Yet if Christ is only giving ad monitory
advice to those seven literal churches, then He is only relating their characters as they then were, and so far as these churches were concerned it would cease to be a prophecy, and the very first verse in
Revelation would be violated. 

Again, vs.3 Blessed is he that reads and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein; for the time is at hand. 
We see that it is called a prophecy in this verse, and must allude to the whole book; but who will pretend that the three chapters in the beginning of Revelation are a prophecy, if we understand them as relating the character of seven literal churches in Asia only?
None, none. 

Again: the word seven is often used in the word of God as a mystical number, meaning the whole, as seven spirits, seven stars, seven angels, seven candlesticks, seven seals, seven trumpets, seven vials, seven thunders, seven plagues, seven mountains, seven heads, seven eyes, seven horns, seven crowns, seven kings, and seven churches.

All these are used in Revelation and apply to or concerning the whole Gospel period. If, then, the number seven is used so often in this book in a figurative sense, may we not reasonably suppose that it is so used in the dedication of this book to the seven churches in Asia, and the history of those seven churches be prophetic? for no scripture is given for any private interpretation, and surely the instruction in the introduction of the book carries us down to the coming of Christ in the clouds."

Health Note - Cancer & Processed Meats

Beloved,
I wish above all things that thou mayest...be in health...
3 John 1:2 
"According to leading oncology dietitian Nichole Andrews, RDN, one of the most important dietary changes you can make is to cut back—or completely eliminate—processed meats such as bacon, sausage, hot dogs, ham, and canned meats. 
This isn’t just a personal opinion; it’s based on decades of scientific evidence. .... classifies processed meats as Group 1 carcinogens, meaning there is strong evidence they cause cancer in humans, especially colorectal cancer.

Even small, regular amounts, like a daily serving of bacon or a single hot dog, have been linked to a measurable rise in
cancer risk. While the occasional indulgence isn’t likely to cause harm, experts say making processed meats a daily habit is a proven health risk that’s best avoided for optimal cancer prevention.

Andrews notes that awareness and moderation are key when it comes to the foods we often overlook. “Understanding what triggers cancer development allows people to make truly informed choices,” she explains. 
With processed meats, the risk stems not only from preservatives but also from cooking methods—grilling or frying at high temperatures further increases the formation of carcinogenic compounds. The takeaway: minimizing exposure to these substances gives your body a better chance to protect and repair itself."

Lesson from God and the heathen

"Acts 17:27 He is not far from every one of us. 
“Not far” is near; so that He is near to every man in the world. 

So near is He, indeed, that He stands at the very door, He will most
gladly enter and reign in the life, and make manifest the fragrance of the knowledge of Himself by that man in every place. 

The Lord being thus near even to the heathen, and thus near to those who continually refuse to open to Him the door of their lives, 
Q: how much more is it true that He is near to those who have opened the door, and have yielded themselves to Him. To all these He says: Matthew 28:20 I am with you always, even unto the end of the world."

IN the NEWS - Swiss/Euro Woke FASCISM Literally on Display

Male and female created He them. Genesis 1:27

"A man in Switzerland is facing 10 days in prison after refusing to
pay a fine for an “offensive” social media post. Emanuel Brünisholz, a wind instrument repairman from Burgdorf, was convicted under anti-discrimination laws for making statement emphasizing skeletal evidence of binary sex.
Brünisholz’s ordeal began in December of 2022 when he responded to a Facebook post by Swiss National Council member Andreas Glarner. In his comment, Brünisholz wrote:
“If you dig up LGBTQI people after 200 years, you’ll only find men and women based on their skeletons. Everything else is a mental illness promoted through the curriculum.”
He’s right. But . . .
Brünisholz’s reply, which highlighted the immutable nature of biological sex quickly drew complaints from activists who filed reports with local police, alleging it constituted public incitement to
hatred under Article 261bis of the Swiss Criminal Code. 
In other words, the comment hurt their feelings.
Burgdorf Police interrogated Brünisholz on August 15, 2023, launching a formal investigation into charges of discrimination and hate speech. During the questioning, conducted by the Regional Police Command Mittelland – Emmental – Oberaargau and documented in an official transcript, Brünisholz was interrogated about the “intent” behind his Facebook reply.
To the question, “What did you mean by this comment?” Brünisholz replied:
“To those who think there’s not just man and woman, I want to tell them that there’s only man and woman.”
Later, when asked, “What do you think of the LGBTQI community?” he responded: “Nothing, absolutely nothing. It’s an extremist bunch. They want to silence me.” This is of course correct. Truth is hate speech to those who hate the truth.
The Judge determined that “through his comment published on Facebook, [Brünisholz] has publicly belittled the group of LGBT(Q)I people based on their sexual orientation and in a way that violates human dignity.” He was issued a penal order fining him 500 Swiss francs (approximately $580 USD), convertible to 10 days of imprisonment if unpaid.
Brünisholz raised an objection against the criminal order, and the case ended up in the Regional Court of Emmental – Oberaargau for review. But on December 20, the Regional Court affirmed the guilty verdict against him, and imposed an additional fee of 600 Swiss francs ($1400).
Viewing the penalty as an infringement on his right to express a scientific fact, Brünisholz opted out of payment and accepted the jail term. On December 2, he publicly announced his incarceration “I’m going to prison for 10 days!”
ES IST SOWEIT, AM 2 DEZEMBER GEHE ICH IN DEN KNAST FÜR 10 TAGE! PIC.TWITTER.COM/YJDAKNTRUH
— Emanuel Brünisholz (@EmanuelBrn22173) September 19, 2025
The ruling has ignited a firestorm on social media, with critics decrying it as a chilling example of “woke authoritarianism” infiltrating Swiss jurisprudence. They are, of course, correct.

Creation Moment 1/4/2026 - Why Darwin Pushed Natural "SELECTION"

Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools.... 
Romans 1:22 NLT

"Charles Darwin’s metaphorical thinking is sometimes subject to a tension between nature as destroyer and nature as nurturer. 
Hard questions from one or more friends, and from reviewers of the
book, led him to consider replacing talk of “
natural selection” with the term “natural preservation,” so as to avoid errant associations with choice and, by extension, teleology. 
But Darwin seems to have sensed that such acquiescence would have been fatal to his idea of major morphological change. After all, his book was about the origin of new species, not their preservation having once arrived. 
Darwin needed the term “natural selection” to modify the reader’s conception of nature’s role — not an exterminator or even a mere embalmer of the status quo but a nurturing facilitator."

Feigning Fake Moral Outrage at Christ

"People get offended at Jesus for how exclusive He is (“It’s insulting to say He’s the only way to God”). 
Jesus ruffles everyone’s feathers because He confronts sin (“Forgive us our trespasses”), claims Lordship (“Why do you call me ‘Lord’, ‘Lord’, and not do what I say?”), and demands surrender (“He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me”).

The Bible warned that He would be like this.
Isaiah said Christ would be “a rock to stumble over” (Is. 8:14). At His birth, Simeon told Mary and Joseph that Jesus would be “a sign to be opposed” (Luke 2:34). Jesus Himself said, “Blessed is he who does not take offense at Me” (Luke 7:23).

Nails in the heart and rough words are found throughout Jesus’ biographies, and anyone who pays close attention when reading them will 
---either be pierced through their soul by the Spirit and commit to
Him 
---or become enraged to the point where they want to throw Him off a cliff (Luke 4:29).

Nick Vujicic warns that “’Jesus’ is the most offensive word in anyone's life. When we mention Jesus, He is the only one who says ‘I am God. I am holy. I am the only way to a truthful life.’ No one — not Mohammad, not Buddha, not anyone says that they were holy, not anyone says that they were God, not anyone says that they faced the devil face to face and won.”

HEALTH NOTE - Beware those Foxes

Beloved,
I wish above all things that thou mayest...be in health...
3 John 1:2

"A fox trotting across a field at noon is one thing. A fox that closes the distance to your front steps, stares you down, or circles your yard in broad daylight is a different story, and experts say that is when you need to treat the encounter as a genuine health and safety issue.

Rabies is the main reason to treat a fearless fox as more than a
curiosity, because the disease can turn a normally wary animal into one that walks straight toward people. Health officials describe how Animals that have rabies tend to show behavior atypical of their species, and They can act aggressively or appear strangely tame, which is why Signs like staggering, drooling, or unprovoked biting are taken so seriously.


Fox and Rabies explains that once clinical symptoms appear, the disease is effectively fatal and that Originally, rabies cycles in wildlife reservoirs like foxes and skunks before spilling over to pets and people.

It is commonly thought that a fox seen out in the daytime must be rabid, but Red Fox FAQs that pose the question “I have seen foxes in my neighborhood during the day. Should I be worried?” explain that the answer is usually no, because healthy foxes may hunt, nap, or move dens in daylight when they feel secure. Those same Red Fox FAQs stress that while daytime sightings are increasingly routine, it
is not common for a healthy fox to approach people closely or ignore obvious attempts to scare it away, which is where concern should begin.


Wildlife specialists also point to specific behaviors that cross the line from quirky to alarming. A Humane Wildlife Control Society note on foxes acting odd lists Unfavorable weather conditions and food shortages as reasons a hungry fox might wander at unusual hours, but it adds that When a fox approaches humans and does not show any fear, Unusual calmness, which is the opposite of the normal skittish response, should trigger suspicion of illness.

Practical Rule: a fox that keeps its distance and flees when noticed is likely behaving normally, while one that closes the gap, stares, or circles people in daylight fits the pattern described."

"Astronomers have discovered a carbon-rich exoplanet with a bizarre atmosphere and shape, orbiting a neutron star under extreme conditions that challenge current models of planetary formation.
Scientists working with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have identified a previously unknown kind of exoplanet, one whose unusual atmosphere challenges our understanding of how this type of planet forms.
The strange world has a stretched, lemon-like shape and may even contain diamonds at its center, placing it somewhere between what scientists typically consider a planet and a star.
Known as

Although it is roughly as massive as Jupiter, its skies are filled with soot-like carbon clouds, and under intense pressure deep inside the planet, that carbon could crystallize into diamonds. 
The planet circles a rapidly rotating neutron star.

Those Vast Blankets of Rock

And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Genesis 7:19

"Seen nearly everywhere, on all the continents, sedimentary rock strata cover some 75% of the earth’s land surface. Strata are often horizontal but can also be tilted. The tilting may be due to tectonic movement or to the angle of original deposition, as strata can deposit at gradients exceeding 30°. Some strata have been deformed into
curves due to subsequent tectonic movement while the sediments were still soft. Sedimentary layers come in many different thicknesses and types, from enormous formations hundreds of meters deep, down to tiny laminae less than 1 mm thick.

These layered rock formations continue under the ground, right under our feet. Individual layers frequently continue, unbroken, over huge areas of the continents. Another way to visualize them is as vast ‘blankets’ of rock, on top of each other in series.

Layers covering large areas of continents are extremely difficult or impossible to explain using standard uniformitarian explanations of sediment deposition.
Sedimentologist Guy Berthault’s flume experiments demonstrated that layered sediments deposit rapidly in the manner of a horizontally advancing deposition in the direction of current flow. This is known as progradation. 
Sideways deposition of strata was first proposed by German geologist Johannes Walther (1860–1937). In the context of a global Flood, strata will form in wide currents of sediment-laden water when a ‘basin’ or lowered area is created. Enormous quantities of loose sediment particles are carried along by the water currents and fall down the advancing ‘face’, or front, of the layer of sediment. This is how the layer grows horizontally. Depositing sideways, the layers are laid down like a layer of cream or icing spread sideways on a cake.
In the year-long global Flood, the world’s deepest and largest sedimentary formations were deposited in just a few months, at mind-boggling speed. Indeed, Berthault’s experiments demonstrate that three layers can form together at the same time. As the layers form, further back (‘upstream’ of the current) another three can simultaneously begin to form horizontally on top of them.

The Tonto Group, part of the Grand Canyon strata, is an example of three layers extending over a large area that formed together during the global Flood. 
A layer of sand at the bottom, 
a clay mud layer in the middle, 
and a lime mud layer on top were 
deposited sideways and at the same time, early in the Flood. 

These later hardened into rock to become the Tapeats Sandstone, Bright Angel Shale and Muav Limestone strata. Further series of layers then deposited in water currents over the top of these sediments, in the same rapid and sideways manner, to form the entire Grand Canyon sequence of strata. The canyon itself was then eroded as the Floodwaters later poured off the continent.

Berthault also discovered that geological layering can rapidly
develop after, not during, deposition of the sediments, due to
desiccation (drying out) creating bedding plane separations in the sediments, as the entire formation gradually hardened into rock. Desiccation occurred after the Flood waters had drained away and the land began to dry out.

Such a Flood, caused by tectonic break-up of the crust, produced high energy water currents, massive erosion, and enormous quantities of loose sediment. Carbonate and other rock-forming minerals were dissolved in the floodwaters, and likely also welled up from beneath the crust, in the waters of the fountains of the great deep.
Such widespread geological strata are compelling evidence for the Biblical Flood."

The French Revolution & Current Politics

"Teaming up with atheism was Jesuit Catholicism. 
Those are the two strong bases of what we call the Democratic Party today. 
They're strongly atheistic on one side and they're strongly Jesuit Catholicism on the other. 
But Jesuit Catholicism is in charge of the educational institutions and they are pro-abortion. They are pro-LGBTQ. 
And they see things very much the same way the atheists do. 
The only difference is they say they believe in God. 
And along with it is hardcore socialism. 
Hardcore socialism was part of the French Revolution. 


Q: What does socialism believe in? 
A: It doesn't believe in equal application of the laws. 
Socialism is about coerced equality and outcomes. 
And the only way you can have coerced equality in outcomes is to have unequal application of the laws. Read The Great Controversy chapter on the French Revolution that started communism.
Egypt has been symbolized by atheism and Bible prophecy. 
And Sodom has been symbolized by the sexual freedom movement.

Revelation 11:8 (And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.) talks about these two coming together and producing the death of two witnesses in the street. This was actually a prophecy of the French Revolution. 
Q: What were the two witnesses that died in France in the French Revolution? 
A: They were the Old and New Testament. Sodom and Egypt are a symbol of immorality and atheism."

Creation Moment 1/2/2026 - The Genesis 3 attack

“But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:3). 
In other words, the devil will use the same method on us that he used on Eve to get people to not believe the Word of God. 

Q: So what method did he use on Eve? 
We read about it in Genesis 3:1: “He said to the woman, ‘Did God actually say?’” 
Another translation puts it this way: “Did God really say?” 

Notice the first attack was on the authority of the Word of God to get Adam and Eve to doubt and disbelieve God’s Word. 
The warning then is that the devil will attack the authority of God’s Word by creating doubt in his Word, which in the end can lead to unbelief.

I call this the Genesis 3 attack. That attack has never let up; it never changes. But what does change is how the attack manifests itself. 
Q: But what is the main “Genesis 3 attack” today? 
A: I suggest the teaching of evolution/millions of years, based on naturalism (atheism), that permeates the culture and church.
 Evolution is really the pagan religion of this age, which secularists push as their justification for rejecting
 God and His Word."

Malanka?

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.... 2 Corinthians 6:17
Q:How many of these people call themselves "Christians"?

"Each winter in southwestern Ukraine, villages are transformed by a riot of 
color, 
noise, 
and a kind of organized chaos. 

Costumed performers that are sometimes human, sometimes animal, sometimes entirely otherworldly wander from house to house, dancing, singing, playing instruments, cracking whips, and offering shots of alcoholic drinks.

Their mission is simple but profound: to sweep away misfortune,
summon laughter, and ensure abundance in the year ahead.
This lively tradition is known as
Malanka, an ancient pre-Christian ritual marking the eve of the Old New Year under the old Julian calendar. Once observed from Jan. 13–14, Malanka now begins on Dec. 31 following Ukraine's recent calendar reforms, which aligned religious and folk holidays with the new Julian calendar.

"If we speak about its ritual meaning, Malanka is a way to prevent evil in the coming year. According to tradition, figures representing death, devils, or evil spirits enter a house during Malanka, they will not return again (for the rest of the year)," Tsiia Sviderska, a popularizer of folk traditions in Chernivtsi Oblast, told the Kyiv Independent.

"There is an element of trickery and deception of evil in this. That is why Malanka must be loud — noise, music, and shouting perform a protective function, driving away everything impure."
The tradition has survived everything from Soviet censorship to Covid-19 pandemic lockdowns, with locals vowing to celebrate no matter the cost."

Bur God gives an answer: God Himself that formed the earth and made it; He hath established it, He created it not in vain, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else. Isaiah 45:18

"For centuries, we’ve asked the same impossible question: What is life—and what gives it meaning? Now, scientists think they’re closer than ever to answering it. But their explanation isn’t philosophical or spiritual—it’s something far more concrete, hidden deep within the structure of matter itself.
A growing number of scientists began asking: what if life isn’t about what it does—but how it’s built? Maybe the secret to life lies in the steps it takes to construct itself, not the ingredients it uses.
That question led Dr. Sara Imari Walker of Arizona State University and Prof. Lee Cronin of the University of Glasgow to develop a bold new framework. They called it Assembly Theory—and it just might rewrite how we define life.
The result was a theory that measures life by its construction history.
At its core, Assembly Theory looks at how difficult it is to build a molecule from scratch. The more unique steps needed, the higher its “assembly index.” Molecules from living systems usually require far more steps—meaning they carry a kind of chemical memory.
The Assembly Index counts the minimum number of building steps needed to make a molecule. The higher the number, the less likely it could form randomly. That threshold becomes a measurable signal of life—or something life-like—at work.
Assembly Theory tracks how much “history” a molecule carries. It’s not just what a molecule is—it’s how much effort the universe had to invest to make it.
Under this view, meaning isn’t mystical—it’s measurable. Life is what happens when matter begins to record its own construction through increasing complexity. Meaning is literally embedded in the way life builds itself."

SDA Issues - Truth about Project 2025

The Lord knoweth them that are His. 2 Timothy 2:19

"You may recall that during the last presidential election in the United States, candidates running under the banner of the Democrat party would routinely call their Republican opponents supporters of “Project 2025.” 
This attack was handled in the same way as calling the opposition, “Nazis” or “Fascists.” 
There was never any attempt to explain what was wrong with Project 2025; everyone should intuitively know what was rotten with that Project.
Using Project 2025 as an insidious slur was necessary because it is 920 pages long, and no candidate for public office was so resolutely literate as to read anything that long.
Those who took the time to read the relevant section of Project 2025 (titled, “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise,” produced by the Heritage Foundation) would find that it proposed requiring employers to pay overtime to employees who were asked to work on Sunday or Saturday, the protected day depending on the religious belief of the employer. The idea was to discourage employers from requiring weekend work so that employees would have the opportunity to attend religious services on the weekend. Or maybe attend football games.
Reinforcing the suggestion that huge flabby brains are not consistent or logical brains, those shouting that Project 2025 was practically a Sunday law 
--somehow forgot that the Adventist Church has long supported the religious accommodation provision of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 
That statute, used in countless cases to argue for the Sabbath-keeping needs of Adventists, poses more absolute restraints on employers. It requires employers to reasonably accommodate the religious worship needs of employees on pain of paying not simply overtime, but attorneys’ fees and, in extreme cases, punitive damages. 
Project 2025 proposed nothing about paying attorneys’ fees and punitive damages. Employers could continue to have their employees work on the weekend. Title VII provides for court orders barring employers from requiring weekend work."

Creation Moment 1/1/2026 - A Communication of God

For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son.... Romans 1:9

"Dr. Meyer made an important distinction. There is the evidence from nature, which supports a “theistic notion of God,”
“transcendent, intelligent, personal, and active.” 
Then, said Meyer, “to decide between the different theistic religions, I think you need what’s called special revelation, and that involves examining, for example, the historical reliability of the Bible, to decide whether it is in fact a communication of the God that we can infer by examining nature.” God’s care and love are what follow from that Scriptural evidence.
Concluded the conversation by quoting C. S. Lewis: “I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen, not only because I see it but because by it, I see everything else.”
