Genesis 1:1.

No plan without a designer
On a tour through the different departments of an engineering company the visitors finally came to the assembly line. Here they were able to see how a finished machine resulted from all the components made in other departments.

An engineer explained all the steps that had to be taken to make the machine operational. Drawings were made, and lists of materials and parts drawn up according to the constructor's design. The individual items were then manufactured, checked and tested and finally assembled in the department where the visitors were standing before a finished product.

When the visitors acknowledged the achievement in the production of the machine before them, the engineer said, "You now have some idea of the thinking, the organisation and the information necessary before such a complex machine has been produced. I myself always feel that the universe is far more complex than this machine; it cannot have come about by chance. So I do not believe the theory of evolution. What happens in our factory must reflect the way the universe was created. Every system that works must have had a designer and a planner. That is why I believe what the Bible says. It teaches us that God is that designer and planner. He created everything in heaven and on earth. So we should honour Him as the Creator.
