Life is Sustained by Energy From Hydrogen

Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

(Hebrews 1:3) KJV

Life on Earth is sustained by energy from the sun. The sun is a ball of plasma and the plasma is a fusion of Hydrogen (H+). This isn’t the only way in which life is sustained by energy from H+.

Life is Derived From Water

Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.

(Matthew 14:25-26) NKJV

Pastors and preachers talk about how Peter started walking on water but when he took his eyes off Jesus he began to sink. We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) want to make this passage about Jesus, not Peter.

Blueprint for a Garden

Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”

(Genesis 2:15-17) ESV

During the time that we (that’s me and the Holy spirit) were at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill we were the teaching assistant for Biology 43, Local Flora, for two spring semesters.

Biblical vs. Biological

Dolphins leaping out of the water

The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything. And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, for

“‘In him we live and move and have our being’;

as even some of your own poets have said,

“‘For we are indeed his offspring.’

(Acts 17:24-28) ESV

Body, soul and spirit establishes the Biblical pattern for life. However, Biblical life and biological life aren’t the same. Biblical life refers to sentient beings which have the breath of life and self-determination.

Corollary I

All Life is One

Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

(John 4:10) KJV

Our life could be summarized through how we (that’s me and the Holy spirit) acquired our favorite books. Some of you can relate. Miracles happened to bring certain books into our possession.

Then they said to one another, “Look, this dreamer is coming! Come therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, ‘Some wild beast has devoured him.’ We shall see what will become of his dreams!”

(Genesis 37:19-20) NKJV

We (that’s me and the Holy spirit) replied to a question “how do you cope with writer’s block?” We don’t have writer’s block, we write everyday. It’s a simple solution.

Chlorophyll

A stylized Chlorophyll molecule

Your mother was like a grapevine
planted near a stream.
Because there was plenty of water,
the vine was covered with leaves and fruit.

(Ezekiel 19:10) Good news Translation

Chlorophyll captures the energy from sunlight in a process called photosynthesis and produces Hydrogen (H+). It’s a picture of the command that God gave to begin the process of forming organic life: let light be.

Blueprint for a Cell

Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come? Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law. Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.

(Isaiah 42:23-25)

In a his book called “Blueprint for a Cell: The Nature and Origin of Life” Nobel Laureate Christian DeDuve demonstrates conclusively that all of life is based on cellular construction.
