Scientists today tell us that the single cell
is more complex than a large city.

As in a city, so it is in a cell.  Systems are working and jobs are being done by the thousands.  But unlike cities, the cell functions perfectly with no breakdowns!

The adult human can have as many as 100 trillion of these walled cities.  Think of the systems working constantly:

All these functions must work in harmony with each other and with the surrounding cells via communication links to maintain the health and fundamental activity of the cell.  Typical cells contain thousands of specific proteins that are vital for life.  Each protein is a chain made from up to  1,000 amino acid molecules in specific sequence.  No cell could ever operate without exact parts that had to exact parts that had to exist and function together from the start.  Even the parts are too complex to function without intelligent plans.

Some Amazing Insights

THINK! How important is the "skin" of a living cell?  The  surface membrane of a cell is amazingly delicate but very " powerful" in its control of the cell system.  It's less than a third of a millionth of an inch thick!  It controls the entry  and exit of everything for the cell.

RNA molecule is the messenger in the metropolis of a cell.  It looks like DNA, but has a passport to leave the nucleus.  With incredible speed the RNA molecule acts like a computer printer.  Let's see what happens.

1. The master DNA and the messenger RNA intertwine in a split second.

2. The DNA instantly imprints a section of its code on the RNA, and then separates from it.

3. The RNA rushes to the edge of the cell city to transfer its code to enzymes, making copies one after another in rapid-fire succession.

4. Each enzyme is commissioned by this code to do a particular job somewhere in the larger organism.

Another Mystery

The whole mass of cells within a body communicates by RNA.   According to experts, they "somehow cooperate" to act like a dog, a fish, a man, or whatever the organism is supposed to be.  That "somehow" is the insoluble mystery to secular scientists who choose not to begin their research on the factually solid foundation of God and His Word.

 "O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!"
Romans 11:33

A Curious Note

Scientists have discovered that DNA is found in the nucleus of All Living cells with the exception of red blood cells and a few certain viruses.  Isn't it strange that the one component that science now calls the "mysterious basis of All life" (DNA) is NOT in the place God's Word tells us where life is found?

"The life of the flesh is in the blood ... "   Leviticus 17:11

"How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! How vast is the sum of them!"   Psalm 139:17

"It is astonishing to think that this remarkable piece of machinery, which possesses the ultimate capacity to construct every living thing that ever existed on earth, from giant redwood trees to the human brain, can construct all its own components in a matter of minutes and weigh less than 10¹⁶ grams.  It is of the order of several thousand million million times smaller than the smallest piece of functional machinery ever constructed by man" (until man invented nanotechnology).
