A code is a set of rules for converting information from one useful form to another. The application of codes is what gives a computer the ability to word process or do mathematical calculations or show different colors or a zillion other things.
We have it so easy these days when it comes to getting computers to do things for us. We can simply visit the “App Store” and get another application…oftentimes for free. You’ve probably heard at some time or another “there’s an app for that”. Nowadays your phone can do what giant, room-filling supercomputers from the past could not.
The application of codes is right in the palm of your hand.
So where does all the information found in those codes originate? From the mind or minds of human beings. Yep, believe it or not human beings are actually smarter and more sophisticated than any computer ever devised or imagined. And here’s a little something to put in your pipe and smoke…human beings contain mind-boggling amounts of complex codes. We’re only beginning to scratch the surface of the complexity of a single cell. Even more amazing is…each human being has his or her own code. No two are alike. Are you kidding me?
We think about how marvelous that new laptop is with its blazing speed, eye-popping display, and life-changing applications. Yet, in the computer’s application of codes, there’s no need for processes like breathing, self-duplication, or bodily functions.
Most scientists understand (even if many don’t concede) that codes are only produced by intelligence. Codes are never observed to spontaneously materialize. Intelligence is needed in order to establish codes and then process them. Applications or programs require outside intelligence to establish the sequence of steps necessary to function.
When you apply that knowledge to your life, you see that all the information found in your genetic material is an extremely complex application or program. Therefore it isn’t unintelligent or unscientific to deduce an extremely complex intelligence must have put the information there in the first place.
Scientific observation shows that natural processes destroy information. They don’t increase it.
Macroevolution denies what our eyes and ears tell us.
The irony is that so many who say there is no God also say we can only know what our five senses tell us. Our five senses will never explain faith, hope, and love. Those flow down to us from the Source of all Intelligence. The microscopic information coursing through the blood in our veins and the waves in our brains shows how much God loves us.
What do you think? Doesn’t knowing He’s there for you sound like a better alternative than black hole non-existence at the end of your days?
In Faith, Hope, and Love,
