streaming, but there we go. All right. Well, hello, I'm Terri Cammerzell, and I'm here on behalf of Creation Fellowship Santee.

00:08

We're a group of friends bound by our common agreement that the creation account, as told in Genesis, is a true depiction of how

00:15

God created all life in just a matter of six days, about 6 ,000 years ago.

00:22

We've been meeting in this online format since May of 2020, and we've been blessed with a whole host of speakers that have ranged from doctors to pastors to apologists to scientists, authors, all sorts of people who love the

00:36

Lord and have a message to share. In fact, tonight is our 80th speaker since we started in this format.

00:44

Of course, we've had other speakers come multiple times, but we're really excited tonight. In case you'd like to find videos of those other speakers, you can visit our webpage.

00:57

It's tinyurl .com forward slash CFSantee.

01:02

That's C for creation, F for fellowship. Santee is spelled S -A -N -T -E -E.

01:09

And while you're there, you can also see the upcoming speakers that we have scheduled through November.

01:14

We do have a few after that, but so far the schedule right now is only reflecting through November. But be sure to also email us at creationfellowshipsantee at gmail .com

01:25

to get on our list so that you won't miss any of our upcoming speakers. Tonight, we are, as I mentioned, so excited that our 80th speaker is

01:33

Dr. Joe Barton. If you're familiar with some of the animal videos that you might have seen, or maybe even some of these cards that you might have collected that talk about different animals and their irreducible complexity, that's what

01:49

Dr. Barton has done. He graduated from college as a

01:55

Buddhist, and an agnostic, and definitely an evolutionist. But God changed his mind and turned his heart, and now he serves the

02:04

Lord with several different ministries. One of them is Biblical Discipleship, and you can find more information about him by visiting biblicaldiscipleship .org.

02:15

But with that, I'm happy to turn it over to you, Dr. Barton. Well, I'm glad to be here with you all, and we're going to talk about some animals, and we'll get our screen up here right now,

02:31

I hope, and see if everything's going to work. Are you all able to see the

02:36

God's Incredible Creatures? Does that look okay? Okay, good.

02:42

Well, a few preliminary things I'd like to mention as we get going here.

02:50

First of all, shouldn't that be changing for me? All right.

02:56

I have my IT person here with me. She's my youngest daughter.

03:04

Okay, so that's that. Now, here we go again. If it doesn't work, we can talk about animals anyway, but we'll just try it again here and see what happens.

03:15

So, we're going to get it here onto presentation, and now

03:21

I'm sharing the screen, and you can see that. Now, I just want to know if it's all good.

03:28

I think it's working. So, when we talk about animals, plants, people, we have to believe that they're created, because if you carefully study them, there's no way they could be here unless they were designed and created and given life and all those things.

03:46

So, we have to believe there is a creator, and the Bible says that's Jesus. So, Jesus of the

03:53

Bible, the Lord Jesus Christ, is the creator. John 1, Colossians 1,

03:58

Hebrews 1. So, in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth, and so that's where it all got started, and by the way, that's interesting because the

04:08

Bible starts in the beginning, God, and the Gospel of John starts in the beginning, and so Jesus made all things that were made, and without him was not anything made that was made.

04:19

So, I have a little history. I'll share if I may. I was raised in the church, but wasn't a true

04:24

Christian. I saw a lot of hypocrisy among Christians and decided I didn't want any part of that.

04:30

Went to Bucknell University, majored in music and biology, became a committed evolutionist after one hour or one course in evolution, and then

04:41

I went on to Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh Dental School. By the time I got out of there, as Terry said,

04:48

I'm agnostic, looking into Zen Buddhism, which that's all you ever do with that, I think, just keep looking into it, and I was an evolutionist.

04:56

Well, after dental school, I was in the Air Force and met my wife in the Air Force, as a matter of fact, and she was a casualty nurse during the

05:04

Vietnam War, and that was a result of answered prayer, and so I decided

05:10

God, by the Bible, that God must exist, and so I became a

05:17

Christian at age 27, and my wife had a lot to do with that, not my wife at that point, but it was answered prayers about her.

05:27

Then got out of the military, and by the way, when I became a Christian, I became a theistic evolutionist.

05:33

I still had the Big Bang all the billions of years, didn't even know there was a problem. Had a dental practice down in Clear Lake City, Texas, that was headquarters for NASA when we landed on the moon, 68 to 71.

05:46

Got offered a job on the faculty at Baylor Dental College, so came up here to Dallas, Texas in 71.

05:52

Gave my first lecture on the evolution of the tooth, how fish moved into the fish, how teeth, how scales moved into the mouth and became teeth, and I can't believe

06:05

I believed that, but I did. Two students challenged me after that lecture to look into creation science.

06:11

They said the whole universe was only about 6 ,000 years old. Would I study that with them, and I didn't even pray about it.

06:16

Of course I will, but I was thinking as this cocky rookie professor, how did these guys get into dental school?

06:23

Don't they know the sinus have proven billions of years? Well, it took five years, and I finally became a biblical young earth global flood creationist, and there's two of the animals that helped convince me.

06:38

The first one the students asked me to prove to them how that could evolve was the bombardier beetle, and I still

06:44

I talk to people, they never heard of a bombardier beetle. We have a card with the bombardier beetle, and I don't know if you can see that, and it's in English and Spanish, and on the back of these cards we have some scripture gospel type verses and talk about the animal, and anyway, so I studied this little bug which mixes chemicals in such a way it has a explosive reaction, and I realized every step of the way that little insect is going to blow itself up, and dead splattered bug pieces can't evolve any improvements, and so I began to think, you know what, that little bug needs all its parts, and if there's even one animal that needed to have a creator with all of its parts, and by the way all of them do, well then there has to be a god that did that, and then they asked me to study the giraffe and tell them why it didn't blow its brains out when it bent its head down to get a drink of water, and so I started studying the giraffe, and I realized, you know what,

07:51

I mean there's no evidence for a medium neck giraffe anywhere anyway, so what did they come from?

07:59

Well god made giraffes, and he built into their artery that goes up the neck a way to compensate for this massive heart.

08:09

Their heart weighs about 25 pounds, it can be up to two feet long, and when it squeezes it pushes that blood up that long skinny neck against gravity, he does fine, now he's going to bend his head down to get a drink of water, and so he bends his head down and the big pump goes squeeze, and the blood goes zoom, hits his brains and blows his brains out his ears, because now he's pumping with gravity instead of against gravity, so he must be thinking

08:34

I've got a problem when I bend my head down to get a drink of water, I blow my brains out, I better evolve something here to fix this, well of course dead animals can't fix anything, but he doesn't blow his brains out because as he bends his head down, our creator the

08:48

Lord Jesus built into the artery little valves like little spigots, and as he bends his head down those little valves close, but the last pulse of blood is beyond the last valve, and it's under enough pressure to burst the little arterioles in the brain, but the last pulse of blood doesn't go into the brain, it goes like under the brain into like a sponge, it's called the root mirabilis, and this little sponge of blood vessels it gently expands, he hasn't blown his brains out, he's doing just fine, he's just a lion coming up fast, well

09:21

I got to get out of here, he jumps up, he runs about two steps and boom passes out, not enough oxygen to the brain, so he must be thinking

09:28

I got another problem here, when I get up too fast, I don't have enough blood in my brain,

09:34

I pass out, the lions eat me, I'm going to have to evolve something here to fix my problem, well dead animals can't evolve anything, okay, he needed all those parts from the beginning, that's called irreducible complexity, like fractions, you reduce them down so far and you can't reduce them down anymore, so the giraffe needs all its parts from day one, you can't have a partially evolved valve in the neck or the blood would squirt right by it, he'd be dead, has to be a fully formed valve, multiple valves, fully formed from day one, only

10:09

God could do that, so I studied these animals, I began to realize, you know what, I think

10:16

I've been wrong with this evolution idea, because there's no way these things could slowly and gradually evolve all the parts they need, they'd be dead all the way along the way, so ultimately

10:28

I became, after studying the animals and studying the assumptions behind evolution, which are not valid, once you, well,

10:37

I tell students, look, you got to know how to spot the assumptions in the literature, well, when these two students challenged me as their professor to study creation,

10:47

I didn't have a clue how to spot the assumptions, they had to tell me, the students taught me, you look for words like we think, perhaps, this suggests, we believe, this is probably, there's consensus, give it enough time, you look for those kinds of words in the literature, that means they don't have a clue, they don't have a clue, they don't know what's going on, and I began to realize the assumptions aren't valid behind big bang billions of years evolution, the ideas of how these animals could possibly evolve, that doesn't work, they need all their parts, so I became a biblical young earth creationist, and I studied my bible,

11:28

I studied these assumptions, and I studied the irreducible complexity of animals, now

11:34

I am, by the way, it took almost five years, but I'm a, what I call, I think it should be called a biblical creationist, young earth global flood biblical creationist, and there's no true experimentally verifiable science that can prove anything else, so we can trust the bible on these things, so in 82, 1982,

11:57

I resigned my professorship at Baylor, I went to Dallas Theological Seminary, majored in systematic theology, and was ordained as a minister of the gospel and a missionary to the

12:09

United States of America in 1986, and so that's what my family and I do, my daughters teach young ladies and mother -daughter things, my wife doesn't, so we're all in ministry together, we're like a little team, all right, now, so I've been on both sides of the fence, almost half my life an evolutionist, this last half a biblical young earth global flood creationist, one thing here about Darwin, Dr.

12:35

John Sanford has done us all a favor, he was an evolutionist, and after he studied especially genetics, he became a biblical creationist, but Darwin didn't know anything about cell biology, biochemistry, molecular biology,

12:49

Mendelian genetics, mutations, DNA, biological information, population genetics, nothing had been published in those areas when

12:57

Darwin was writing his book, 1859, and that was done all since and all by Christians, Christians were the first to publish science,

13:06

Christian scientists, the first to publish in these areas, God just gave it to them, neurobiology, things like that, so then you have to ask, why do so many

13:16

Christians then believe in various forms of evolution, John 5 44, how can you believe which receive honor one of another and seek not the honor that cometh from God only, or John 12 43, for they love the praise of men more than the praise of God, I think that's called academic pride, we love the praise and honor of men more than what comes from our savior, to bring him honor and glory, that's basically political correctness, it's just the opposite of biblical truth when we come right down to it, so we're getting to animals here as quick as I can, the creator

13:48

God of the Bible tells us to study what he's made, Romans chapter one, that's the creation, and we're going to see irrefutable evidence that he exists, a matter of fact, it's so irrefutable that when people study this and they refuse to bring

14:02

God glory, they refuse to give him thanks, God says they're without excuse when they stand before him, and that's scary,

14:10

I don't know, I mean these very smart scientists, they refuse to humble themselves before God, now

14:18

I was like that, and so Romans one says, I'm not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it's the power of God unto salvation, to everyone that believeth, to the

14:26

Jew first, I hope we're all praying for the Jewish people, they're in a bad fight right now, we need to pray, and also to the

14:34

Greek, for therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith, as it's written, the just shall live by faith, so we all do, we all have a faith -based worldview, we either believe by faith in eternal

14:45

God, or by faith in eternal matter, or eternal energy, and then God says in the next verse, for the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, certain kind of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness, so there are men out there who are unrighteous, they're ungodly, and they know some things, and they won't tell us about it, like for instance, the slow loris, most people never heard of a slow loris, well why, well because the evolutionists control the textbooks, and they control the media, and if there's anything that could not possibly evolve, it goes way outside of how they teach their evolutionary ideas, they just don't tell us about it, the slow loris,

15:31

I'll show you a picture here in a minute, it's the only venomous primate, so they know these things, they know about nudibranchs, and wetas, and so many different animals, we go a whole lifetime, and we're just not allowed to know, because we live in satan's world system, and it's based on lies, it's based on deception, and so, but that's why we've done all of our dvds, we have 10 of them now on everyone, on all kinds of different animals, just to show

16:02

God's glory, and so that which may be known of God is manifest in them, how, well

16:08

God has showed it unto them, well how does he do that, well he showed them from the invisible things of him, from the creation of the world, are clearly seen, so we can see things about God, even things about his eternal power and Godhead, by studying his creation, the things that he has made, that's what he wants us to do, but we're not allowed to do it in a way that gives

16:33

God glory, and so that's how we got off on all this, Isaiah 42, 5 through 8,

16:40

I don't have this memorized, and part of my screen is covered here, but let's, thus saith

16:46

God the Lord, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out, he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it, he that giveth breath to the people upon it, he's given us our breath,

16:57

I hope we thanked him, I still have some, 84 years old, I'm glad I still have some, and spirit to them that walk therein,

17:05

I am the Lord, that is my name, and my glory will I not give to another, he won't share his glory, see evolution robs

17:13

God of his glory, it steals his praise, he says nope, I won't give my glory to another, neither my praise to images, so that's what

17:22

God says, now Colossians 1 says by Jesus, by him, were all things created, the things that are in heaven, the things that are in earth, visible, invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, all things were created by him, and for him, and he is before all things, and by him all things consist, or hold together,

17:45

Romans 1, we just looked at that, so let's get on down here just a little bit more, bringing our hearts to worship,

17:51

I just want to show you a few plants, orchids, and somebody sent us these, and I don't know who gathered them all up, but you just think, we study

18:05

God's creation, we should give him glory, give him thanks, oh that's just amazing,

18:10

Lord Jesus, look what you did, there's one called the white egret orchid, or the angel orchid, there's your ballerina orchid, or the dancing girls orchid, or the parrot flower orchid, or look at that dove, down in the middle of that orchid, that's called the dove orchid, the flying duck orchid, amazing, you know, they don't fly very far, they're hooked on, anyway, the laughing bumblebee orchid, amazing, this was all in the genetics that God put into orchids, and all these different things come out, the happy alien orchid, or you might have the painted lips orchid, and you said, no way, yeah, yeah, monkey -faced orchid, and there's different monkey -faced orchids, there's slightly different faces of different kinds of monkeys,

19:11

I mean, God is amazing, we study these, we give him glory, we give him thanks, then you have your swaddled baby's orchid, and you think of that, remember, remember at the, the angel came to the shepherds out there, we usually read at Luke 2,

19:27

Christmas time, and they said to the shepherds, you're going to find a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger, well, they didn't tell them what manger, there's probably hundreds of mangers,

19:39

I mean, that was an agricultural community, but they did tell them what manger, these were obviously the temple shepherds, and the angel said, you'll find the babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger, they knew exactly where to go, there was only one manger that had swaddling cloths, it was called

19:59

Migdal Eder, the tower of the flock, and that's where the priests and the shepherds prepared the lambs to take them up to the sacrifice, they would, what are swaddling cloths, the swaddling cloths used in Migdal Eder, where they prepared the baby lambs for the sacrifice, they were made from the robes of the priest, and when he thought he'd worn them enough, they would turn them into towels, take them down there, and then as the baby lambs were born, they would catch them in swaddling cloths, they weren't supposed to get a bruise or anything, then he would clean them up, wrap them in swaddling cloths, and take them up for the sacrifice.

20:39

I think it's 99 % for sure Jesus was born in the very stable, very, uh -oh, things are happening here to my computer,

20:51

I don't know if I'm still with you or not, uh, I better get my IT person here, uh, anyway,

20:59

I'll try to keep going, and, um, you're still with us, yep, we hear you, and we see the swaddle baby orchid, oh, they're adorable, okay, good, yeah,

21:14

I think there's, it's 99 % for sure Jesus was born in the very manger that the sacrificial lambs were born in, and what is

21:21

Jesus? He is the Lamb of God, uh, it just gave me another little sign,

21:27

I'll just keep talking, okay, there we go, your video, there we go, good job, okay, uh, so I'm gonna just keep moving here, but that was an interruption, uh,

21:38

I think the devil doesn't like things we talk about, on your show, I'm sure, but now

21:44

I'll pray, Father, now just protect everything here for us, for your glory, in Jesus' name, amen, now, nothing's happening when

21:54

I change slides, so, you got it, my, my IT person is here, and, uh, we're gonna get this working, so I'll start talking about another animal here,

22:05

I think, wow, we are getting all this going again, and, uh, let's see,

22:12

I don't know which one is next here in my program, oh, let's read a little out of Psalm 8, that's what came up, oh,

22:19

Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth, and I'm covered up here on some of my

22:25

Psalm, okay, so we can just take that off there, maybe for right now, and then I can read the, ah, there you go, uh, how excellent is thy name in all the earth, who has set thy glory above the heavens, out of the mouth of babes and sucklings has thou ordained strength, because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger, when

22:46

I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained, what is man, that thou art mindful of him, and the son of man, that thou visitest him, oh, yes, he does, he, he knows us, and he loves us,

23:05

Job 12, what's it say, now ask the beasts, and they shall teach thee, and the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee, or speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee, and the fishes of the sea shall declare unto thee, who knoweth not in all these things, that the hand of the

23:20

Lord hath wrought this, now what's he saying there, study what God has made, and you'll be face to face with the fact,

23:28

God had to do it, when we study the creation, God had to do it, and so, we've already talked about the giraffe, so we'll, we'll get on down here, what about a dog, they have it, and they have some really special abilities, they're, they're known as a domestic animal, a household pet, but they read, they read their, the, the emotions of people, and especially, they're like their, their owner, and they know, and you, you're sad, they'll come over, and they'll put their paw on your arm, or on your knee, and they'll look you in the eye, and then, and now they can read your face, just like if you know your dog, you can read its face, and if they're telling you, you better not touch my bone, they don't have to say a thing, they just look at you, and you know that look, well, they can do the same thing with us, they read our face, and their nose is incredible, they can smell things, they can even smell a melanoma, a cancerous mole on a person, before it breaks through the skin, this is before the doctor can find it, these dogs that are trained to smell these melanomas, they can smell it, that right there, they'll sniff that spot, and the doc, the doctor sees it, and that's where it goes, yep, that's where it was,

24:55

I mean, unbelievable, the ability they have, and then hummingbirds, we're just going to really roar through a few here, they, they can, they can fly upside down, right side up, they can fly backwards, frontwards, and the mother hummingbird usually has two eggs, a little tiny nest, the eggs are about as big as your little fingernail, and she will test the eggs, the nest, to see which way it's going to tip when the wind blows, and if she sees it's going to tip a certain way, she'll go get some cobwebs, and hang the cobwebs off the side of the nest that's going to go up when the wind blows, and then she'll go get little pebbles, and put it in the cobweb as ballast, so that when the wind blows, it's not going to tip and dump the eggs out.

25:52

Now, how, how would they know to do that, and why don't they get tangled up in the, in the web, and I mean, there's things that we don't even know about, that I'm sure some young people are going to study, and they're going,

26:03

I'm going to figure that out, and so these little birds, they, what, what can we say, they're like little daredevils, they, the way they fly, their wings beat 720 to 5400 times a minute, some of them fly across the

26:23

Gulf of Mexico in the winter, and yet in the summer, they're up there, they're eating every two minutes, just to provide all of the, all of everything that they need, and they're beautiful, their colors, and a lot of their colors, if, if there's no light, they just look like brown or black, but the light is refracted through the feathers in such a way, these beautiful colors come out, and so their, their, their color is not diet dependent, like a flamingo, a flamingo has to eat certain foods to stay pink, the macaw, it has certain cells that make certain colors that aren't diet dependent, we might show you a picture here in a second, but now a mountain lion, the mountain lion hunts at night, and they might hunt at dusk or dawn, but mostly at night, then it couldn't be a dark night, but yet they can see very well in the dark, because they use the light twice,

27:21

I think it's called a tapetum lucidum, this membrane that makes, they, they use, they use the light as it comes in, then they use it as it comes back out, so they use it twice, so let's say, and they can jump off a cliff 65 feet high, and, and land, they would like, let's say there's an elk down here, and they want to jump down, and they want to get the elk, they don't land on the elk, they'll try to jump off the cliff, and land right behind the elk, and then in one leap, they're up on the back of the elk, but that elk is thrashing around, it wants to get them off of there, well it's dark, and, and things are moving fast, how is it going to know where to go, because it wants to bite, snap the neck, get right behind the neck, well, when it grabs a hold of the back of the elk, this mountain lion has little hairs on the bottom of its foot, they, when it grabs a hold, those hairs say to the mountain lion, the hair on the back of the elk is going that way, that means the head is that way, and, you know, what happens if they didn't have those hairs, and they jump on the back of the elk, and they go the wrong way, they're going to snap the tail, that isn't going to help, they need to snap the neck, and so instantly, instantly, in the dark, when they grab off, they know exactly which way to go, to get to the head, so it makes it a quicker death for the elk, easier hunt for the, for the cougar, and unbelievable, and then you have all these things that we don't know much, most people never heard of, like the nudibranchs, some of the most beautiful animals on planet earth, and they, they steal their defense mechanism, they don't have one, they're a snail without a shell, and they're beautiful, so they're going to attract everything in the ocean that's hungry, and everything in the bite one of those, it'll only do it once, it'll never come back again, now what these little creatures do, they, they eat nudibranchs,

29:21

I mean, that is the nudibranch, they eat anemones, and jellyfish, things have those stinging cells, they're called nematocysts, and they're under an, they have like an explosive trigger, and when you touch it, it's like a little explosion, and under a microscope, it looks like a harpoon comes out, and that's why if a jellyfish bumps into you, like bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, and you get all these little stinger marks, well, these little snails, they eat those things, and don't set off the explosive reaction, they swallow it, they digest what they want, now they got this little pile of, of these stinging cells,

29:57

God made them with all these tubes inside themselves, and they'll put those stinging cells in the tubes, move them up into their skin, up into their gills, and the defense mechanism of their lunch became their defense mechanism, and they even potentiated the explosive reaction, there's a

30:14

PhD in marine biology for some young person, what's going on here, and so that's a nudibranch, now you're not, we're not supposed to know about those things, because they're in Satan's world system, based on deception, and then you have your lampsillus muscle, and we've got that on one of our

30:29

DVDs, and it mimics different kinds of minnows, maybe in a part of the pond, you got spotted minnows, so this little muscle puts its flesh up on top of its shell, and mimics these different minnows, or maybe it's a striped minnow, it'll, it'll mimic a striped minnow, and then they also mimic different insects at certain times of the year, or they'll mimic different worms, unbelievable, and most people never heard of a lampsillus muscle, there are all freshwater streams around, around the

31:03

United States, most of the world, did you, I don't know if people knew that a fox uses earth's magnetic field to find lunch, so let's say you have a little mouse, and the mouse is under two feet of snow, that fox can hear the mouse under two feet of snow, so this little mouse is down there under the snow, and if that fox lines that mouse, or whatever, it's little voles, things like that, if it gets earth's magnetic north, and then you have, let's say, the mouse, and in a straight line, you have the fox, and as long as that mouse is directly between the fox and magnetic north, and the fox dives into the snow, and it's under two feet of snow, he can't even see it, he's going to get it at least 73 percent of the time, but you get that little mouse a few degrees off of magnetic north, and he's going to miss it, and it drops way down the percentage of times that he can get it, and so how does that work?

32:19

How does evolution explain those types of things? Oh, well, you see the fox, it got this magnetic material that it uses to line things up, how does it, how did it get that the way it can hear under two feet of snow?

32:35

They do not have answers for those things, we can trust our lord, so the fox is irreducibly complex, it needs all its parts, and then it'll jump, and way up in the air, and dive down, and go under the snow, and come up with lunch, and it's believed that the fox is calculating its dives based not only on its precise hearing, but also on how it aligns itself with the earth's magnetic field, yeah, they've proven that now, and so let's see if we can jump on down to something else here, the elk, or I mean the caribou, reindeer, they're reindeer if they're domesticated, they're caribou in the wild, beautiful, beautiful animals, they're made for snow, how are we doing on time?

33:25

How's my IT? I'm doing good, okay, tell me when I need to hurry, okay, all right, good, we got to keep the family on this, anyway, these reindeer, well, here's a special thing, it's the only deer that I know of that the female grows antlers like the male, now there's a reason for that, because in the winter the male is going to drop his antlers off, probably early

33:56

December, right around in there, the mating season is over, and he drops his antlers off, but the female, she doesn't drop her antlers off until right around the time she gives birth in the spring, so now she has the antlers, and they like to eat lichens, and they eat a lot of lichens under the snow, they can, by the way, they can smell a lichen under five feet of snow, the nose of the caribou is that sensitive, well, all right, so this female, now she's pregnant, she finds a beautiful clump of lichens, and she's got the snow off of them, and she's ready to eat them, and this bull comes over, this bull caribou, oh, hey, ma 'am,

34:45

I see you found some lichens, I'm going to help myself to those lichens, and well, sir, I found these lichens, these are my lichens, you can't have any, yeah, but you see,

34:56

I am the bull, and she says, yes, but I have the antlers, so you get out of here, so God made it so that the female caribou can protect herself, so she gets the best food all winter long, because she's, has a little baby growing there, and she needs the good food, and they can control the temperature in their legs, and do all kinds of fancy things they need to do in that cold, cold weather, and they also can see ultraviolet light, so a polar bear looks white, by the way, the polar bear is not white, the polar bear's hair is translucent, it's clear, but it refracts light in such a way that makes it look white, okay, like what color is water, it's clear, what color is snow, it's white, but what is snow, it's frozen water, why isn't it clear, same thing, it refracts the light in such a way that it looks white, okay, so the polar bear decides,

36:11

I'm going to have a caribou for lunch, so it's sneaking up here on this caribou, but the polar bear's hair absorbs ultraviolet light, and so that means to the caribou, since it can see ultraviolet light, the polar bear looks black, and so here's this polar bear, oh boy, it's all white, all snow, it can't see me,

36:36

I'm going to sneak up, nope, the caribou says, there's this black bear coming up,

36:42

I got to get out of here, by the way, I might add, when polar bears hunt seal, and they have, they find a seal hole, they can smell that, if the wind's right, four miles away, so there's a seal hole where they come up to breathe, and he's going to catch himself a seal, so he will lie down on his stomach, he covers his nose with his front paws, because you got this black tennis ball coming around on a snow, coming toward the seal, and somehow the seals know, oh, that must be dangerous,

37:21

I'm going back down, out of the way here, so the polar bear covers his nose, or her nose, and then push slides, push him with their hind feet, slide right up there, and they're pretty much invisible to the seal, and so anyway, you know, there is another one that I'd like to be sure we mention, and let me see, that one is,

37:50

I think I have that on slide 132, let's just see if this will go there, ah, yes, the crimson worm, the crimson worm, in Psalm 22,

38:08

Jesus, in verse 6, this is, this is known as the crucifixion psalm, the messianic psalm, these are things

38:17

Jesus was either saying out loud, like, my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me, which he said out loud, that is in Psalm 22, or he's talking to the

38:27

Heavenly Father about, or he's thinking in his head, while he's on the cross, this is a crucifixion psalm,

38:34

Psalm 22, verse 6, he says, but I am a worm, and I, I saw that, what,

38:42

I'd been asked to do a devotion on Good Friday, or Crucifixion Day, a few years ago, and I'd never seen that, ah, but I'm a worm,

38:50

I don't, I don't, oh, I mean, I have to look that up, well, it's not the normal word for worm, the normal Hebrew word, the normal word is rimah, normal worm, but he uses the word tolah, or the tolahoth.

39:04

Now, that is a very specific worm, it's called the crimson worm, or the scarlet worm, in the

39:09

Middle East. Well, why would Jesus call himself that? Now, he equates himself with that particular worm, and there's the scientific name,

39:20

Coccosillosis, or Kermesillosis, and it's, the distribution is around there, all over Israel, but the mama worm, when she's ready to lay her eggs, she climbs up on a tree, or a fence post, and she prefers a certain kind of tree, but anyway, if there isn't any, she'll climb on whatever's there, and she attaches herself to the tree,

39:39

Jesus was attached to the tree, and then she lays her eggs, and they all hatch out about the same day, and after hatching, for the first three days, they feed on the body of the mother, and she oozes a bright red crimson fluid, that's why she's called the crimson worm,

40:00

Jesus shed his bright red blood for us, he said, I am that worm, it's a picture of Jesus on the cross, the red fluid stains the tree, and the young worms are covered, permanently stained with it, well,

40:15

Jesus' blood permanently covers us from our sins, when we trust in him as our savior, and so, after three days, the young worms are ready to leave the shell, so the mother is still attached to the shell, and the tree, she dies attached to the tree, so that she can birth a family, well,

40:35

Jesus died attached to a tree, so that he could birth a family, that's called the church, the Christians, that's us, on day four, the mother worms remains turn into a snow, white waxy material, they begin to flake off, and look like snow dropping to the ground, well,

40:51

Isaiah 118, come now, let us reason together, sayeth the Lord, though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, though they be red like crimson, there it is, that's the worm, though they be red like the crimson worm, they shall be as wool,

41:07

Jesus says, I am, I'm that worm, and not my shed blood covers you from your sin, while the worms remains and shell are still red and attached to the tree, they're scraped off, and used to this day to make royal red dye, the white waxy material is used to make a high quality shellac, it's a wood preservative,

41:24

Jesus is our preservative, it also is used to make a medicine that aids in the regulation of the human heartbeat,

41:30

Jesus is life, the red dye, the crimson worm, was used as the red dye in the robe of the high priest of Israel, most probably in the covering of the tabernacle in the wilderness, the ramskin covering that was also dyed red, so it has a history going all the way back, the covering that's there, what do we need to do?

41:54

Well, we need to receive the Lord Jesus as our personal Savior, and we'll have a new birth, a birth that is now possible, because Jesus sacrificed his life willingly on Calvary Street, Jesus died so that we can live, the mother toloth died so that her babies can live,

42:11

Jesus equates himself with that toloth crimson worm. Oh, so anyway, all things are by law purged with blood, without shedding of blood is no remission,

42:28

Hebrews 9 22, Ephesians 1 6 and 7, to the praise of the glory of his grace when he hath made us accepted in the beloved in whom we have redemption through his blood the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of his grace.

42:41

Now look at this, Joe, that's that little tiny chapter, verse 6, he says this, how much less man that is a worm remah, the normal word for worm, man is a worm, and the son of man which is a worm toloth.

42:59

Well, Jesus, what's Luke calling the son of man? Is the book of Job prophesying when the son of man comes, when the

43:09

Savior comes, when the Messiah comes, he is going to be like that toloth worm, he's going to be attached to a tree, he's going to shed his blood, he's going to die attached to the tree so that he can birth a family, which is called the church, and that's exactly what

43:28

Jesus did. I think Job has a prophecy there, and that's the oldest written book we have as far as I know in the

43:36

Bible, so right from the beginning when God's word is written, the message is there, the son of man who is the son of God is going to come someday, and he is going to be like that toloth worm, he's going to be attached to a tree, shed his blood, and die so that he can birth a family, and I think that's just amazing, and so we have what a wonderful Savior we have, and I don't know where we are here with time.

44:08

Are there questions? We should have a little time for questions. I might be abrupt here just saying, okay, let's stop with that, and let's have a question.

44:16

What do you have here? Anything? Anybody? No questions? Good. Let's just, no, go ahead.

44:22

Not yet. Keep going, and we're collecting questions in the chat, so you can keep going, and when you're done, we'll ask questions.

44:31

Okay. I guess Bill Morgan had something. Let's see. Did the question? Okay. Okay. Thanks, Bill, for the question.

44:39

Bill's another one of our presenters. We're gonna let Dr. Job finish, and then we'll ask the questions if that's okay,

44:46

Bill. Okay. Well, I'm trying to think of some other animal that we ought to just talk about.

44:53

Or if you're done, we can go into questions. Well, I've got more here, but if you want to go to questions, that's fine.

45:00

Let's give it a little bit more. Let's hear a few more animals. Okay. How about the, oh, go ahead.

45:07

Yeah, let's do two or three more animals, and then we'll do questions. Okay. Let's look at,

45:12

I hope, a macaw. All right. The macaw is quite a beautiful, beautiful bird.

45:21

By the way, those colors in its feathers are not diet dependent.

45:27

It has five different cells. They're called lipochromes that generate those intense colors.

45:36

That's only in macaws that have those. So God made them special. Where does that come from? If all birds came from reptiles, which is what the evolutionists say, how can this be?

45:46

Because all kinds of birds. Well, if we looked at birds, and I have a whole bunch of birds in here too, you'd say, wait a minute, wait a minute.

45:56

All those birds and all those different features and colors and feet. We have a whole presentation on feet.

46:02

You have blue feet, red feet, pink feet, brown feet, black feet. What is going on here?

46:09

No. Evolution has no answer for these things. But these macaws, they like to eat certain berries that are poison.

46:20

Okay. So they eat them when they're green, and when they're green, they're poison. Which, by the way, gives them a little head up here on other animals, because they have to wait until they ripen.

46:34

Well, they can eat them when they're green, but they're poison. So when it fills its tummy with these poison berries, it immediately goes over to certain clay banks along the

46:47

Amazon River and eats the clay, and the clay detoxifies the berries.

46:54

Well, how would they know to do that? So I asked one evolution that, and they said, oh, well, that's a learned behavior.

47:01

They learned that from grandma and grandpa macaw. So I said, okay, let's say grandpa and grandma macaw were the first ones to eat the poison berries, and now they have their tummies full, and grandpa macaw says to grandma, oh, grandma, let's take a nap.

47:19

We have a full tummy. I'd like to nap. Oh, yeah, grandpa. Let's just go take a nap. No, they're dead. Okay.

47:26

And by the way, a dead grandparent can't teach the grandkids, oh, get over there and eat that clay, or you're dead.

47:34

It's not learned behavior. It is in the genetics that God gave those macaws.

47:41

They know, if I eat that, I got to get over there and eat the clay, and it detoxifies it, and the right clay, and they know what to do.

47:52

When we start studying God's creatures, we're just face to face with, oh,

47:58

God, how do you do this? He thought this all up before there was ever a single thing, and he had it known.

48:07

Here's what they're going to do. Here's what they're going to need, and I like Institute for Creation Research.

48:13

It has a concept they call continuous environmental tracking, and God has built into every living thing, plant, animal, human, what they need is already in their genes to help them adapt, if you want to call it that, to different environments, different foods, different climates, all kinds of things.

48:40

It's already built into them because God knew ahead of time. Well, some animal's going to move here.

48:46

It's going to move there. It needs equipment. He needs to find food and find a mate, all that kind of stuff.

48:52

It's all built into them, and that's so much better than natural selection, for instance.

48:59

Why? Well, natural selection, what nature is selecting, that takes the glory away from God.

49:06

No, God says, nature doesn't select anything. I built it into these animals.

49:13

It's ready. All they have to do is move, and it's already there. I thought I'd throw that in.

49:18

Anyway, here's a slow lore, since we mentioned it. The only venomous primate, the venom is injected by a bite, whereas poison is swallowed.

49:29

That's the only difference. It could be the same material. It's different way to get it there. Cute little animal.

49:38

It's a prosimian. It's in the lemur family, down in Indonesia. They have a grip like iron.

49:48

That's why it's in this red towel. Let's say if I held this little fella, and he grabbed a hold of my jacket and didn't want to let go, we'd have to cut the jacket.

50:00

They have found these things that died hanging on a limb, and they can't even pry those little fingers open.

50:06

They have to cut the limb. Where does that come from? Other primates aren't like that.

50:12

No other primates are venomous, as far as I know. By the way, that's why most people never heard of it.

50:18

We live in Satan's world system. Anything that couldn't possibly evolve, according to the evolutionary plan, they don't tell us about.

50:26

I majored in biology. I never heard of a slow loris. Why not? They're very special. They're a venomous primate.

50:32

They're special. No, you can't hear about that, because it messes up the evolutionary way of doing things.

50:37

We just don't tell you about that. Venom gland is up in the arm, right in the inside of the arm, right at the armpit.

50:46

When it needs the venom, it just licks. I can't get down there anymore. I've got this metal shoulder. It licks it, mixes it with saliva that activates it, and then when it bites, it squirts the venom down two grooves on the back of its cuspids, its eye teeth.

51:02

God made it that way. The Lord Jesus squirts it down in there. That's how it delivers it. Well, how would evolution explain that?

51:11

They don't have an explanation for that. What do we have after him? I'm trying to, oh,

51:17

Psalm 8 again. Oh, Lord, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth.

51:23

The earth. It is. All the earth. Everywhere we look, whether we look up, whether we look down, whether we look ahead, it's all telling us there is a

51:35

God who created this and who loves us and who sent his son to die for us so that we could live with him forever.

51:48

So Jesus, he took our sin on him. Okay, what happened there?

51:54

God made Adam. He said, hey, Adam, if you eat of one tree, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, if you eat of that tree, you can eat anything else.

52:05

But if you eat of that tree, you're going to die. Just one thing, Adam, you can't do.

52:11

Well, what Adam do? He ate of the tree. Now he has to die. What? Wait a minute.

52:17

Think about that. God said, if you eat of the tree, you're going to die. I think God made Adam to live forever. If he didn't eat of the tree, he wasn't going to die.

52:27

Death is the penalty for sin, starting with Adam, which means, by the way, you can't have millions of years of stuff living and dying before we ever get to Adam.

52:35

So that takes big bang billions of years out of the question. But anyway, well, then

52:40

God says, okay, Adam didn't do it. I myself will do it in the person of my son.

52:46

So Jesus comes as a man, Philippians 2 explains that pretty well, and he goes through life.

52:53

He doesn't sin, but now he can't die because only sin brings death.

53:01

So Jesus didn't sin, he can't die, but he did die. Why? Because he took my sin and your sin on himself on the cross, and he died.

53:13

Now he has to die. He has sin, but he overcame the death. That's the result of Adam's sin at the resurrection.

53:20

So he's the victor over the death, and now he can say to us,

53:26

I want you to have my righteousness. All you have to do is believe in me, put your faith in me, trust in me as your

53:37

Savior. I give you my righteousness, and therefore we can live with him forever. He did it, and it's a gift.

53:44

Salvation is by grace through faith. It's not of ourselves, it's not of works, it's a gift of God.

53:52

It's not of works lest anyone should boast. So God said, nope, you can't do anything to buy it, earn it,

53:58

I just give it to you as a gift, but you have to believe, you have to trust. So that means everybody's going to have two births and one death, or one birth and two deaths.

54:10

So if you believe in Jesus, you've received him as your Savior, that's called being born again,

54:18

John chapter 3. So that means you're only going to have one death, your physical death.

54:25

But if you've never believed in Jesus as your Savior, you've never received him as your

54:30

Savior, believed that he did die for your sin, and he wants to give you the gift of eternal life, no, no, you don't do that.

54:40

You've only had one birth, you haven't been born again. That means you're going to have two deaths, your physical death, and then as Revelation chapter 20 puts it, you're going to have a second death, when at the great white throne judgment, after that, you're thrown into the lake of fire forever.

54:58

It's as easy as just trusting in Jesus as our Savior. So let's have a little time for questions, if that's okay with you all.

55:09

Yes, and that was very marvelous. We've really been enjoying, and there's been lots and lots of comments.

55:15

Just a couple of questions so far. One of them, maybe it was answered, but Bill is just asking if you can remind us which verse it was that you had that corresponded with the red worm.

55:30

Yeah, well, was it the verse in Psalm chapter 22 verse 6?

55:36

That's where I got it. Jesus said, I am a worm. And then Job 25 verse 6 is the one that says, man is a worm, the normal word for worm, and son of man is a worm, tolah, the crimson worm.

55:53

And I think that's Jesus. Yeah. Did that help? Yeah, I think so.

56:00

Also, he would like to know, did the college students ever know that you became on fire for the

56:06

Lord? Here's the problem. For the life of me, I cannot remember who those students were.

56:13

That was 1971, okay? I was just at, day before yesterday, the 50th reunion of the class of 73.

56:28

I got there in 71, and here were these guys. They wanted me to come back to the reunion, so I did.

56:35

And it was good to see them. But I'm thinking at the time, was it any of those guys? Because they would have been there.

56:42

I don't know. So I don't know. I don't know. To God be the glory. That's all I can say. And two courageous students that challenged their professor gently, politely.

56:56

As I recall, at least one of them, maybe both, had a PhD before they ever went to dental school.

57:02

And I'm thinking, what are they doing in dental school? Yeah. Wow. Oh, I guess

57:10

I made a mistake about the, it's okay. But it was two different bills that had those questions.

57:16

So I think that maybe that's all. There's a comment about the, people were marveling at the polar bear, about how they get their color and stuff.

57:28

That was pretty interesting. And then also Robin commented that the alligator farm in St.

57:35

Augustine, Florida, at that place, the macaws fly over freely.

57:41

And so you've got to watch yourself. And they do your business on your head. I know that firsthand.

57:47

Oh boy. On one of our

57:53

DVDs, I'm holding that little alligator, and it wet all over me. I don't think it was housebroken.

58:02

Weren't you the dentist for Ronald Reagan? No, it was

58:07

Johnson. Johnson. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. President Johnson was president when

58:12

I was the dentist for the 89th military airlift wing. That's the presidential fleet. That's the ones that fly

58:20

Air Force One. And they have a whole fleet of planes, Sabre Liners, Jet Stars, all kinds of planes that are tax money bottom.

58:27

And so, but he never came into our clinic.

58:33

He could have, but he didn't. So, but yes, that's who I was the dentist for.

58:38

There were five of us. And by the way, they, back in those days, they took one of us with them when the president flew on Air Force One.

58:46

And I wouldn't, I just, another guy wanted to do it. And so anytime it was my turn,

58:51

I said, McCormick, do you want to go? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I was dating my wife at the time, and I was afraid to leave town for three weeks.

59:02

I was afraid some guy would step in there. So I just stayed back. I got to see it.

59:10

Yeah, I got to look for it. That's funny. It looks like Bill Morgan has another question.

59:15

Yeah. And by the way, just a little, a little promo. So Bill Morgan has spoken for us several times in the past, and he'll be speaking for us again on January 18th about vestigial organs.

59:29

So yeah, that'll be a great one. But he does have a question for you right now. He says, do mosquitoes have a function for, for creation?

59:38

Yeah, well, you see, there's questions like that. We don't have the answers. We do know that the male mosquito eats nectar.

59:48

The female mosquito needs a drop of blood to get her, the eggs going and everything going for her to reproduce.

59:59

Could it be that is a result of the fall?

01:00:05

Or after the flood, when God changed, he flipped a lot of switches after the flood.

01:00:13

And because up until the flood, there was no dread between man and beast, which means the dinosaurs weren't trying to eat

01:00:20

Noah on the ark. They're still eating grass or herbs. Genesis one, verse 30.

01:00:26

It's Genesis chapter nine, where God now says, okay, Noah, I'm putting fear between you and the beast.

01:00:34

You catch them, you can eat them. Well, verse five, he says, T -Rex, if you can catch

01:00:39

Noah, you can eat him. So he put this dread between man and beast. So I don't know.

01:00:45

Maybe, maybe Bill knows. I'd like to hear.

01:00:51

I don't know. Bill, do you want to turn on your microphone and weigh in on this? Hello, Dr.

01:01:00

Martin. Good to see you. Yes. My theory, he did it to harass

01:01:05

Pharaoh. Okay. But I have no basis for that.

01:01:11

Yeah. Well, maybe you do. Just keep thinking about that. Yeah. I honestly don't know.

01:01:19

But I think they're the most complicated animal I've ever seen with all the things a mosquito can do. Yeah. You know, and you, have you seen that 800 times magnification of its foot?

01:01:32

No. Oh, unbelievable. Somebody sent us that. I have it in my computer somewhere.

01:01:40

Unbelievable. Just the bottom of its foot, different colors, different little projections, all kinds of things.

01:01:50

And it's, it's blade that penetrates our skin is a absolutely, perfectly sharp dagger.

01:02:01

As a matter of fact, they have magnified it. And like you take a razor blade and you put it under the same magnification and there's all kinds of little imperfections, but the mosquito is perfect.

01:02:16

It is a, that's why he can slide that thing in. You don't even feel it just slides it right in there between the cells in your skin.

01:02:22

It's so sharp. Now, Ecclesiastes tells us, we can't know the end or the beginning of anything.

01:02:31

Only God knows the end and the beginning. And so maybe that's one of those things.

01:02:37

God says, okay, but maybe somebody, maybe that's you, maybe somebody's going to figure this out. You know what? Set up an experiment and see if you can raise some mosquitoes and see if there's a way the female mosquito can breed without having a drop of blood to help her do it.

01:02:57

I mean, there, there might be a way to do that. I don't know, but I know the male, it doesn't need any blood.

01:03:03

It just eats nectar. So maybe the female could do that too before the flood. Fascinating.

01:03:09

And somehow they find a little capillary. They don't just stab and suck. They find a capillary and suck.

01:03:16

And how do they do that? You know, there's a good, there's a good study too. You know that boy, there's so much that we could learn about all these things when we really start to study them.

01:03:27

Yeah. Wow. Well, there's your next assignment, Bill. Yeah. Yeah. I want to hear the results of it too.

01:03:34

Okay. So we have another question from Jim and he'd like to know if, you know, why did

01:03:40

Noah send a raven out first and not just send the doves? Well, that's another one

01:03:46

I never thought of. That's a good question. I don't know.

01:03:52

I just don't know. God had a reason, I'm sure, to stimulate

01:03:57

Noah to do that. And we know a raven is a very smart bird.

01:04:05

I mean, you can teach them to talk. I mean, they're just a really smart bird. And maybe that, and maybe he was able to somehow communicate with Noah.

01:04:17

You know, we don't know. Maybe animals were able to talk to people somehow. I don't know. We don't know about a lot of these things.

01:04:23

I wondered about that too. Like Balaam's donkey talking to him.

01:04:29

I mean. The Bible doesn't record Balaam being surprised by it. Yeah, exactly.

01:04:35

Like it was just. Okay, my donkey's talking to me. Yeah. Well, yeah.

01:04:41

And the serpent talking to Eve. I mean, it wasn't like she's. What's this?

01:04:47

Not just conversation. It was just a conversation. So we don't know. We just don't know. Yeah. My daughter can talk to our dog and our dog can talk to my dog.

01:04:57

She knows what it's thinking. One of our other members here in Zoom answered that ravens are scavengers, but doves only go for the good food.

01:05:13

So that might have been why. And that person is also asking, when did you serve in Vietnam?

01:05:22

That's Rob Langsford. Oh, that's Rob. Okay. Yeah, I served during the

01:05:27

Vietnam War, but I served in Washington, D .C. for two years at Andrews Air Force Base.

01:05:34

I didn't ask for that. That's just where the Lord put me. And my wife, as a casualty nurse, didn't go to Vietnam either.

01:05:44

She met the casualties when they flew them in from Vietnam. And she has seen things nobody would want to see.

01:05:52

And it was, I'll tell you, those guys, some of them had triple amputee, just blown up, burned all over everywhere.

01:06:03

They would land in these huge airplanes and put up a cheer, and there were tears coming down their face.

01:06:13

They were so glad just to get back to USA. And the person asking the question,

01:06:20

Rob, is a pilot. He flew during Vietnam. He flew medevac helicopters, he says.

01:06:28

Well, maybe he flew a C -130s or 140s, whatever. They were a huge, huge plane.

01:06:34

Yeah, the C -130s, the big plane, but I think he was flying helicopters, maybe a Sikorsky. Okay. Yeah.

01:06:40

Beautiful plane. Yeah. Well, thank you for your service. I mean, you know what? That is a tough job.

01:06:48

One of our fellow dental professors at Baylor, Roger Weed, was a helicopter pilot, got shot down in Vietnam and was able to get out.

01:07:00

And boy, you guys, you did a job. Praise God for you. Yeah.

01:07:06

He says he flew the Huey. Yeah. You know, they have a fleet. The 89th has a fleet of Hueys in Washington, D .C.

01:07:16

They can get all the senators and congressmen out of Washington, D .C.

01:07:21

to the bunkers that circulate, circle Washington, D .C. in 12 minutes. They get them all out.

01:07:28

And it was a fleet of Hueys. So that was, at least that's when I was there. Maybe it's different now, but anyway.

01:07:34

Yeah. Um, have they done that before? Like, has there been a reason for them to do that?

01:07:40

Or just drill? What's that now? Say it again. Has that actually occurred?

01:07:46

Did they go in and fly them all out sometime? Yeah. I think they've done that a time or two. Yeah, I do.

01:07:53

We don't hear about that. Yeah. Um, our, our friend, Bill, we have a lot of bills.

01:07:58

Our friend Bill in Colorado was making the comment that he didn't know that the animals on the ark ate grass.

01:08:08

And I find that a lot of secular people don't understand that. They think they took huge dinosaurs that ate people onto the ark.

01:08:17

Do you have a comment on um, the, um, animals on the ark eating not meat or?

01:08:25

Well, yeah. Uh, God doesn't say that any animals ate meat or even people ate meat until Genesis chapter nine after the flood, which would have saved

01:08:36

Noah a lot of trouble having freezers full of frozen sheep to feed the lions and the

01:08:44

T -Rexes for a whole year on the ark. Uh, all he needed was, hey, they're still all eating, uh, herbs.

01:08:53

And, uh, if we just take what the Bible says, and I do, so you have to, you have to put

01:08:59

Genesis chapter one, verse 29 and 30, and then put it and compare it with Genesis chapter nine, the first five verses, and you put those two together and God has not given permission to man or beast until Genesis nine to eat meat, so to speak.

01:09:22

Okay. So I, that's just what I hold. That's what I believe he did. And that's what he told us.

01:09:28

Yeah. That makes sense. Um, okay. I think that that's the end of the question.

01:09:35

So we're going to go ahead and sign off for our live stream and recording, and then we'll have a few minutes to hang back in the

01:09:42

Zoom room before we, before we sign off. So one more time, Dr. Martin, can you please remind people, um,

01:09:50

I, I know that you have at least one or two different ministries. If you could tell people where they could find you, if they want to purchase your

01:09:58

DVDs or the cards, the animal cards that you have, how, how could they do that?

01:10:03

Well, the easiest way to do that is just go to biblicaldiscipleship .org, biblicaldiscipleship .org.

01:10:13

And, uh, that they can get my book, uh, there too, the evolution of a creationist, which is all the arguments from the

01:10:21

Bible and science that moved me from being an evolutionist to being a creationist.

01:10:26

So that's good. And our DVDs, you know, we have, we have the DVDs, the

01:10:31

Alaskan series, three of them. Then we got, uh, Creation Proclaims, there's four of them where I'm with a lot of the animals.

01:10:38

And our first series was Incredible Creatures that Defy Evolution. And then our cards are, those are fun, actually.

01:10:48

I mean, you give out tracks. Uh, I don't want that. Even toll booth operators take those.

01:10:54

You just, you just hold it up and you might say to them, uh, Hey, do you know why a giraffe doesn't blow its brains out when it bends, when bends its head down to get a drink of water?

01:11:06

No. What would you like to read? Well, yeah, sure. And they take it. Well, then they got a gospel verse. If they click on the

01:11:12

QR code on the front, takes them right to the gospel. We're not trying to sell them anything. I'll give you one example.

01:11:19

Do I have time for one quick example? Oh yes, please do. Okay. So the last trip we were up in, uh,

01:11:27

I don't know where we were, Pennsylvania, I think. And we're in the motel having breakfast. And there was a woman sitting all by herself at a table over here.

01:11:37

And, and she just, she just looked like a liberal. Now I love liberals.

01:11:44

I love to talk to them. I was one myself for a long time. Okay. So I don't have any judgment against them, but that's just to me what you look like.

01:11:52

So I decided I'm going to give her an animal card. So I walked over to her table. I didn't say anything.

01:11:57

I reached in my pocket. I pulled out an animal card. It was the humpback whale. So I put it on the table and I said,

01:12:05

I looked her right in the eye and I says, we've got to save those whales. And she went, oh yes, yes.

01:12:14

We got to save the whales. And she picked the card up and that's all I said. But I planted the seed.

01:12:21

She's got the card. She can click on the gospel. I pray a lot of people will do that. So we have those kinds of things happen a lot.

01:12:29

And while everybody's here, I would encourage you start talking about the tattoos people have.

01:12:37

I mean, you, we walk up to somebody and we'll say, Hey man, that's a beautiful arm.

01:12:44

You've got there. What's that mean? We'll ask them a question or two.

01:12:49

We're smiling while you got their attention now and they're smiling with you. And then you say, well, now what kind of an investment do you have in that arm?

01:12:59

The first guy I asked that to was having breakfast with his dad and mom at a motel. And he said, well,

01:13:07

I have $5 ,000 invested in this arm. And his dad looked over and he said, yeah, he sure knows how to waste his money.

01:13:14

No throw his money away. But they took some animal cards. They took a DVD. We have some of the

01:13:19

DVDs done on those little square ones where that's the whole DVD, but they're cheap and we can just give them out like tracks talking about their tattoos.

01:13:28

People love to talk about their tattoos as long as we're not you fool. What's the matter with you?

01:13:34

No, you love them. God, Jesus loves them. And we just start talking and then, and you got their attention.

01:13:40

But how do you get to talk to people these days? They can't see it. They got their earbuds in.

01:13:46

They can't hear you. If you tap them on the shoulder, uh, sexual harassment. I mean, there isn't any way to get into people.

01:13:54

We've discovered tattoos is an easy way to get a conversation going. Anyway, that was a little side.

01:14:02

Perfect. Yeah, that's perfect. That's a really great. That's really great. I, we study so much of this.

01:14:09

And so it's really great when we have little calls to action of ways that we can really put it into play to, to, to use the information we've been given.

01:14:17

So you have done a great job of doing that for us tonight. So thank you for that. And, and then just to remind everybody, we are creation fellowship

01:14:26

Santee, and you can find links to, um, our past presentations, most of them by going to tiny

01:14:33

URL .com forward slash CFS archives. And you can also click while you're there for a link to our upcoming speakers next week.

01:14:43

We're going to be welcoming pastor Josh Schwartz. He represents, um, two ministries, all of tree views and also

01:14:50

Mark Henry ministries. And we have been noticing a big rise in, um, spiritual warfare, including

01:14:59

TST Satanist clubs and other things like that. So we've asked him to come a little before Halloween, just to share with us some different things, different ways that we can defend ourselves against Satan's wiles.

01:15:13

So, um, be sure to join us next week for that. And with that, we're going to go ahead and sign off. Thank you,
