Spring is here and the butterflies are beginning to flutter signs of creation all over the Northern Hemisphere. The Wings of the Wind and its editor had an interesting week. On the blogging front:
American College of Pediatricians Slams Transgender Agenda in Children is an article from Dr. Chris Prunean’s Blog “Delight In Truth.” You will certainly not find this interesting article about the transgender subject anywhere in the mainstream media. “Why not?” is the question I have.
Review: Ashamed of the Gospel, by John MacArthur I’ve been to Jim’s blog several times in the past. From this article, we appear like minded in the most important ways. I may have to try to get my hands on a copy of this now as Dan C. is reading it and, as it appears it may have some information on the “Downgrade controversy” in Spurgeon’s day of which I am not aware, I am curious.
On Tranquil Seas ~ is Deborah Ann’s poem I chose to publish this week. This was a much needed drink at an oasis along my journey this week. God’s Word is, of course, my primary source of strength, but Deborah Ann’s Words are based on scripture. This was the favorite verse of a college friend who went on to become a pastor.
On the substitute front, I was fortunate to spend 4 of my 5 days at Fountain Lake. I enjoyed it all, from 2nd grade on up. I got to go on the annual trip to Blakely Dam that the 4th graders have been taking for years. The 5th day I was a spanish teacher at Park Elementary. I welcomed the students with my limited knowledge of Spanish: “Buenos Dias.”
The joke of the week comes from Clayton:
“What do you call a speaker without speak?”
“er”
May the God, our Creator and the Creator of Heaven and Earth, bless your week.
Evolutionary teachings hold that all mankind arose from a population of ape-like ancestors from which chimpanzees also evolved. But Genesis, the rest of the Bible, and Jesus teach that all mankind arose from Noah’s three sons and their wives. A new analysis of human mitochondrial DNA exposes two new evidences that validate the biblical beginnings of mankind.
Mitochondrial DNA comes from mothers. Mother egg cells transmit their mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) into the cellular mitochondria of every child born. This unique annex of DNA contains 16,569 bases—either adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine (A, G, C, T)—that encode vital cellular information, like an instruction manual.
Scientists have been comparing the genetic differences between every major people group around the globe. How did those differences arise?
THE TRUTH ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION is a timely piece about revisionism. Thank you for posting this, Manny. We all need to read all of it.
The Dangerously Influential Gospel of Tim Keller is important information in this era of wolves among the flock. Sherryn has posted information about a false teacher that many know of. Interestingly, Keller wrote the forward to the recent biography of Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
This Light of Mine ~ is a Christian poem by Deborah Ann Belka. No week would be complete without reading something from Deborah Ann.
Some good times were had with the kids this week. Got to help the Special Ed kids at Fountain Lake on Field Day. We got wet, we jumped in the bounce houses, we enjoyed the sunshine.
On the front page of the local newspaper today WAS THIS STORY. It was printed online in the Washington Post yesterday. The article is by Andrew Roth.
The article begins with this sentence:
“Engineers at Chernobyl, Ukraine, are close to installing a new state-of-the-art protective shelter over the remains of reactor no. 4, the site of the worst nuclear power plant accident in history.”
Excuse me???
Does anyone know what’s going on in Japan as this is being written? The core at Chernobyl was contained. No one knows how to contain the 3 cores that completely melted down at Fukushima. Here is an interview from from almost three years ago.
The mainstream media is giving us information about Chernobyl. Why are we not hearing about the ongoing problem in Japan?
Could it be that someone is trying to play down the ongoing problems at Fukushima? Could it be that someone wants to dispel fears of the reality of Fukushima? I don’t know, but I find the coverage of Chernobyl very strange particularly when the greatest nuclear disaster happened only 5 years ago as opposed to 30 years ago.
What did lizards look like when they crawled around dinosaur feet? Newly described lizards encased in Burmese ambers clearly show the answer.
Publishing online in Science Advances, a team of zoologists recognized familiar lizard forms in a dozen amber-encased specimens.1 A few preserve almost whole lizard bodies, most merely contain body parts, but they all confirm biblical creation in several different ways.
Amber forms when resins—not sap—flow from damaged trees. The resin hardens within hours, like scabs, to help heal the tree’s wounds. The resins sometimes flow fast enough to occasionally entomb little creatures, and harden fast enough to preserve them before they’re eaten or have time to rot.
Secular scientists assigned an age of 99 million years to these Burmese amber deposits. But the encased organisms show no evidence for evolution between creature kinds. Instead, the dozen lizards fall neatly into five modern lizard categories. For example, the researchers found life-like modern geckos and even identified a tiny chameleon fossil.
It seems to me that there is a good amount of evidence that the Biblical view of Creation is logically correct. I believe the Bible account is the correct account.
“Known as ‘Darwin’s Bulldog on the Continent’ and ‘the Huxley of Germany’, Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel is notorious as the scientist who perpetrated fraud upon fraud to promote the theory of evolution.”
Just shows you can’t lead a Bulldog to water and make him drink.
This “evidence for evolution” test question is quite enlightening.
Thus, as recently as 2012, false looking embryos were used to “actualize” evolution. Mr. Haeckel is still being discussed in classrooms where evolution is the only “theory” on the block, though his drawings were discredited during his lifetime.

11 Thus says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: “Ask Me about the things to come concerning My sons, And you shall commit to Me the work of My hands. 12 “It is I who made the earth, and created man upon it. I stretched out the heavens with My hands And I ordained all their host.” – Isaiah 45
Science is way ahead of ethics. People are doing things in labs today which would interest Heir Hitler. Can the perfect race be created?
The real question is: How far will man go to begin to believe he is a creator of sorts? The answer appears to be pretty far. Some believe we can expedite our evolution. These types of people have no common sense.
Don’t we have enough problems already?
What are the problems with cloning? This post will look at just one of the choices being made by playing God.
This article discusses CLONING’S HIGH COST. This article is 15 years old. I bet the price tag hasn’t gone down.
Where are our priorities? The millions being spent on this “research” could house a few of our homeless veterans. There are many needs that are more important than cloning anything or anybody.
I did a poll among a small group of young people (Jr. High) and was surprised by the response. Over 80% of the teenagers I talked to (about 100) thought that “creating” a T-Rex was a bad idea. Most of these youth were asked before I discussed priorities.
Here is the definition of the word “science:”
“The intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.”
Did I see the word “practical” in that definition?
I wasn’t planning on bringing up the National Debt here, but the world is going broke. We need to be better stewards of what we do have control over. If our methods of stewardship don’t change soon, things will spiral out of control one way or another.
My opinion? (I know I’ve already given a few here) The Great Tribulation that Jesus mentions in Matthew 24 is right around the corner because man won’t change his methods of stewardship. Sincerely, I hope I am wrong.
I had the great pleasure to “talk” to a few of my students from over 30 years ago when I was teaching in San Francisco, California. I remembered each of them and, happily, they remembered me. It was a short but very sweet conversation over Facebook. I don’t remember them because I taught them in my first years of teaching. I remember them because they were special young people and it appears that hasn’t changed (except for their ages.) I enjoyed connecting with Tim, Martha, Ernest, and Dorothy again.
If you saw THIS POST, you will see that I’m organizing a peaceful demonstration in Hot Springs, Arkansas in April. You can CLICK HERE to listen to my friend in California explain why. All are welcome to my protest.
HOW DID WE GET HERE states that there is scientific evidence that evolution is “operationally impossible” (a scientific term).
I put up a post about the dating of the writing of the book of REVELATION HERE.
HOW TO BE A BAD MOTHER IN NORWAY explains that, according to Norwegian society, it is almost impossible to be a good Mom. It is an interesting article from a young lady living in Norway and posted on “Frog in the Fjord.”
Oh, and if you wish to worship God right there at your computer, please listen and sing along with the post called “Holy, Holy, Holy.” This was my favorite hymn as a child and still is.

WEEKLY WRAP-UP FOR 2016-5-21
May 22, 2016Spring is here and the butterflies are beginning to flutter signs of creation all over the Northern Hemisphere. The Wings of the Wind and its editor had an interesting week. On the blogging front:
Forced Adoption in the U.K. included this video:
The reason I put up the forced Adoption story was because my friend Eugene Lukjanenko sent a message to this blog about getting out of prison.
https://chrisreimersblog.com/2018/04/05/eugene-lukjanenko-is-out-of-prison-sends-message-to-wings-of-the-wind-readers/
The video below details that sad story of how Eugene’s son was taken from him:
INDIA PROTESTS NORWAY’S CPS includes the following video by Dr. John Dayal:
American College of Pediatricians Slams Transgender Agenda in Children is an article from Dr. Chris Prunean’s Blog “Delight In Truth.” You will certainly not find this interesting article about the transgender subject anywhere in the mainstream media. “Why not?” is the question I have.
Here is the latest statement I could find from the American College of Pediatricians.

Sermon Link: The Godhead Revealed by Dr Martyn Llloyd-Jones is a wonderful sermon that I found at Sherryn’s blog. Here is a man who knew how to rightly divide the Word of God.
Gospel Herald – Norway’s Seizure of Five Children due to Parents’ ‘Bible-Based Parenting Style’ Questioned by Over 100 Lawyers and Politicians Worldwide is only part of the story of the wonderful Christian family pictured above.
New DNA Study Confirms Noah is an interesting article by Brian Thomas, M.S. of the Institute for Creation Research.
Steven Bennett – SECRETS and LIES – Inside Barnevernet, Norway’s CPS is an article about the sad reality of Norway’s Child Protective Services.
