Mankind is living in darkness and seems completely oblivious to what’s going on all around them, especially, in the United States. Guess it’s been this way from the beginning of time although it seems to be getting worse. But, as a follower of Jesus I know every person on this earth has the choice to live in the light. It should be apparent that I place my belief, my faith, my trust and my hope in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is our salvation and the only hope man has in a fallen world. And from my journey through the scriptures it becomes abundantly clear that Jesus is described as the light of the world, especially, in the Book of John. The scriptures I’m referring to reads;

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made
through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him
was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the
darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

John 1:1-4

Since Jesus is the light of men, I’m reminded of the big discovery a few years back when scientist discovered that human eggs emit sparks when the man’s seed comes in contact with the woman’s egg. Yes, I said a man’s seed and a woman’s egg because this is the only way reproduction occurs, the very way which God designed for His creation! Read about it at Human Eggs Emit Zinc Sparks or watch the video below to witness this occurrence.

While many scientist claim this has to do with a chemical reaction which creates the spark, it does make me wonder if there is more at play here. For instance, is it possible this is the very minute we receive our Spirit? Are is God creating the light at this very moment in mankind? Lots of questions I have about this, but, I’m also reminded of the scriptures which read;

Psalm 139:13-16 – For you formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your Book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there was none of them.

Galatians 1:15 – But when God, set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult flesh and blood.

Romans 8:29 – For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers.

Isaiah 44:2 – This is the word of the LORD, your Maker, who formed you from the womb and who will help you: “Do not be afraid, O Jacob My Servant, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.

For me, these scriptures re-enforce what those who follow Jesus Christ has known from the beginning, that the light emitted upon contact between the seed and the egg is a WITNESS life begins at conception! And, if you want to get technical, if something is growing it means it is alive!

If someone has had an abortion, I feel for you, and I will pray for you if you like. Because it must be a difficult decision to make. So please know my post isn’t designed to condemn or judge anyone who has experienced this, it’s here to help prevent future abortions or at least give the mother more to think about.

When we get down to the nuts and bolts of everything, it means from the very moment the man’s seed comes in contact with the woman’s egg, life has begun…
