Science & Faith with Dr. Peete: Recent Episodes
Naomi Peete
It is normal for humans to wonder about the origin of everything ."In the beginning", gives us the key to the entire mystery. Faith comes by hearing. Science comes by seeing. Together that will enrich our faith and beliefs.
A new question to consider is where do microbes and viruses fit in the creation scenario ? Life, as we know it, would be impossible without these invisible tiny organisms.
Respiration is one of the most vital operations to sustain life. Respiration is the act of breathing. Breathing is the process that moves air in and out of the lungs.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education is important to humanity's global future that shapes our daily and future experiences. Eve and the daughters of Eve used creativity, curiosity, observations, motivation, and innovations to address the critical demand placed on humanity from sin. Access to new knowledge and practices is treasured in the Bible. Spending effectual and fervent study time of passages and narratives will enrich your awareness of nature that will lead us back to the Creator of it all.
The Bible is sacred and holy. It is a collection of 66 books written by different authors over a span of many years. The Bible is divided into two divisions that consist of the Old Testament (39 books) and the New Testament (27 books). The Bible records the interactions of God with historical people and nations. The Bible reveals the meaning of life and the responsibility of humans to God. The Bible is instructive, the world's best seller, and the world's most translated book.
Throughout the Bible, you will uncover observations, superstitions, curiosities, and interactions with the spiritual, physical, and biological natural environments. Nonliving and living elements are found in lessons laces with life instructions through parables, metaphors, symbols, and similes as well as allegories. "I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world." (Matthew 13:35 NIV).
The study of science involves observing the natural world through your senses. You can sense the world around you through your senses of touch, taste, smell, sight, and hearing. A microscope and telescope help us discover the world around us by aiding our senses. As well as exploring our surroundings and extending beyond them, science encompasses all the knowledge we gain.
I define science as the "Human explanation of God's creative actions that result in the inexchangeable universal laws of nature". In our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) world, the Bible stands the test of time and deserves to be examined through the lens of science.
