10 AREAS OF CLEARLY SEEN OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE OF WHAT CAN BE KNOWN ABOUT GOD
"Evidence Clearly Seen" is the only book that leads the reader on a fascinating journey through 10 areas of clear evidence found in nature and history of what can be known about God. Eugene Glenn has delivered a marvelous interactive book filled with links and videos. It ties together and builds on evidence of Jewish and Christian God within biblical apologetics, Intelligent Design, several areas of science, origin of life, mathematics, probability, forensic science, sacrificial love, justice, and scripture coordination over vast periods of time.
In a world where science and faith are often portrayed as irreconcilable foes, this standalone book offers a refreshing and empowering perspective. It invites readers to explore undeniable signs of divine intelligence woven into the fabric of creation. What sets this book apart is its bold fusion of cutting-edge scientific insights with timeless biblical truths, challenging the myth that Christianity opposes science. Instead, it reveals how true science illuminates God's handiwork, providing a robust defense against secular narratives that dismiss faith as outdated or irrational.
At its core, this book is a beacon of encouragement for young college students navigating intellectual doubts, as well as for Christians who feel pressured to reconcile their beliefs with popular evolutionary theories. Many are misled into thinking Christianity is "anti-science" or that evolution explains life's origins. Here, I dismantle these misconceptions with clarity and compassion, showing that evolution addresses only adaptation within species—not the genesis of life itself, which falls under abiogenesis research. By examining "evidence clearly seen" in nature and science, as inspired by Romans 1:19-20, we uncover God's invisible attributes: His eternal power and divine nature, manifest since the world's creation. As the Scripture states: "Since what can be known about God is evident among them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, that is, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen since the creation of the world, being understood through what he has made. As a result, people are without excuse."
As a dedicated Gospel preacher, I anchor this exploration in the God of the Bible—the ultimate Creator of life and the universe. Drawing from human history, we see profound evidence: Nearly everyone worldwide recognizes that 2025 marks the years since the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, history's most influential figure. This isn't mere coincidence; it's a testament to divine intervention echoing through time. Delving deeper, we encounter breathtaking complexity at every scale: the intricate nano-meter precision required for even the simplest cellular life, the mind-boggling intricacies of quantum physics, and the vast, ordered structures of intergalactic space. These aren't random accidents but hallmarks of intelligent design, pointing unmistakably to a purposeful Creator.
What makes this book uniquely compelling is my personal journey of discovery, shared transparently to inspire others. For years, I grappled with ideas of compatibility between biblical creation and evolutionary processes. Like many, I once pondered if the six days of Genesis could symbolize vast eons, allowing for natural origins of life. After all, Scripture notes that "with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day" (2 Peter 3:8), emphasizing God's patience in granting time for repentance. Could God have engineered the universe to self-generate life without ongoing intervention?
A pivotal realization came from Genesis 2:5, which reveals that although God created plant life on Day 3, it hadn't yet sprouted by Day 6 when humanity was formed. This detail eliminates any room for millions of years—or even weeks—between those days, affirming a swift, literal creation sequence. Science aligns remarkably here: Even if provided with pre-made DNA and proteins, these components degrade rapidly within hours under natural conditions. Life couldn't emerge slowly over eons; it demands immediate assembly, just as Genesis describes.
This insight propelled me to reject any hybrid of creation and undirected natural processes. Evolution, I learned about 25 years ago, has no bearing on abiogenesis—the quest for life's origin through chance chemistry. Recent years have only strengthened this view, as no biblical evidence supports life arising via unguided mechanisms. The book's uniqueness shines in bridging this gap with contemporary science, spotlighting the groundbreaking nanotechnology research of world-renowned chemist Dr. James M. Tour. His work demonstrates the staggering difficulty of synthesizing artificial amino acids and DNA from scratch, even with advanced modern labs. Preventing their degradation over mere hours is an even greater hurdle. Tour's open challenges to abiogenesis researchers remain unmet, underscoring that millions of years of random processes aren't a solution—they're the enemy of viable life formation.
In essence, this book equips you with tools to see God's glory in complexity, fostering a faith that's intellectually vibrant and scientifically informed. It doesn't shy from controversy but embraces it, proving there's no scientific warrant for believing life originated through natural, undirected means. Whether you're a student questioning your worldview or a believer seeking reassurance, these pages offer hope, clarity, and a fresh lens on creation's wonders. Join me in this journey to behold the evidence clearly seen—and emerge with unshakeable confidence in the Creator.
