Wednesday Night Class
Teachers
Lesson Summary
The Wednesday night class examined how science functions as both a blessing and a threat, illustrating its benefits through everyday comforts and its dangers through technologies like nuclear power. The teacher recounted personal anecdotes, including a family member’s experience of being denied medical school admission because of additional Bible coursework, highlighting the tension Christian students often face in secular educational settings. The discussion asserted that God is the ultimate author of scientific discovery, arguing that without a divine creator, the very existence of science would be impossible.\n\nThe class then moved to philosophical considerations, noting that scientific principles such as the law of conservation and the impossibility of something arising from nothing implicitly point to an eternal, uncaused existence—attributes that only God can fulfill. While acknowledging that some scientists claim to have disproved God, the teacher maintained that true understanding will ultimately give glory to the Creator. The session closed with a prayer for divine insight into cures for diseases like Alzheimer’s, trusting that God will guide scientific breakthroughs when He wills.
