Scripture defines love beautifully. It tells us of a patient, hopeful and selfless love. A love that can care for another and make a difference in the world. A love that can honor a savior who loves us more than we could ever comprehend. A love we are capable of because God first loved us.

Verse: "Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?" —Romans 6:16
Today, we take another look at the amazing eye on today’s Creation Moments Minute.
The lens of the eye is a marvel of chemistry. It is made up of a concentration of protein molecules inside water-lined cells. When scientists learned this, they were amazed. Protein molecules in water are not transparent, as the lens must be. After more research, they discovered God’s secret. The high concentration of protein molecules in the lens of the eye causes the proteins to pack together something like the molecules of window glass. As a result, the normally opaque protein solution in the lens becomes transparent.
The eye does more damage to ideas about origins that leave out God than almost any other feature of the creation because it allows us to see the Creator’s fingerprints all around us!

Your ability to see is nothing short of a miracle. Find out why on today’s Creation Moments Minute.
The eye is a chemical and technological wonder. It would take thousands of carefully directed mutations for an eyeless creature to develop sight. And since a partial eye doesn’t provide sight, each of these thousands of mutations would offer no advantage to the creature.
The fact is, of course, that mutations don’t happen this way. All the true mutations we know about have harmed rather than helped the creature with the mutation. This fact places the thought of thousands of positive mutations in a row outside the realm of scientifically reasonable consideration. In addition, neither living nor known fossil animals show any evidence of gradual development of eyes. Therefore, the most reasonable scientific conclusion is that there is a Creator Who designed and created the eye.

Verse: "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men." —Matthew 5:13
Verse: "Then the Lord said to Gideon, 'By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place.'" —Judges 7:7
God wants us to break camp and move on. He says that we have been on this mountain far too long. But before we can move on, there are lessons we need to learn while camping and we won’t get promoted until we do. Pastor Jeff continues this teaching with “Learning to Live for God”.
Join the congregation of First Presbyterian Church of Perkasie Pennsylvania as we worship the Lord by his Word and Spirit. We sing the great hymns of the Christian faith from the original Trinity Hymnal of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. Pastor MacLaren's sermon is "Coming of Age." This service was recorded on January 4, 2015. First Church is a member of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. The Rev. R. Scott MacLaren is the pastor. The boyhood of Jesus is largely passed over in silence by the gospels, but Luke does have one very significant event in the life of Jesus that he records for our instruction. It is the story of Jesus' appearance at the Temple when he was 12 years old, a time when boys took on adult responsibilities. Watch as Pastor MacLaren shows how Jesus revealed his unique relationship to God in this amazing story.
