Scientific proof all things are held together by Jesus

Colossians 1:15-17

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

Today's Science Lesson:

Laminins are a family of proteins that are an integral part of the structural scaffolding of basement membranes in almost every animal tissue. You see, laminins are what hold us together ~ literally. They are cell adhesion molecules. They are what holds one cell of our bodies to the next cell. Without them, we would literally fall apart. And I knew all this already. But what I didn't know is what laminin looked like. But now I do.

Here is what the structure of laminin looks like...AND THIS IS NOT a 'Christian portrayal' of it....if you look up laminin in any scientific/medical piece of literature, this is what you will see...

For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. (Romans1:20)

Laminin is the major non-collagenous component of the basal lamina, such as those on which cells of an epithelium sit.[1] Basically, laminin is a protein found in the "extracellular matrix", the sheets of protein that form the substrate of all internal organs also called the "basement membrane". It has four arms that can bind to four other molecules. The three shorter arms are particularly good at binding to other laminin molecules, which is what makes it so great at forming sheets. The long arm is capable of binding to cells, which helps anchor the actual organs to the membrane.

The Latin Cross
also called the Roman, Protestant, Western or Plain Cross


Latin Cross

The Latin cross (crux ordinaria) is a symbol of Christianity even though it was used as a pagan symbol for millennia before the foundation of the Christian Church.

What BW is getting at is that we believe this crucified man was the infinite Creator of all veiled in a human body. He planned before he made this world to enter it and give himself up to crucifixion for our sakes. It simply doesn't surprise us that the central event of human history could therefore be incorporated into the essential design of living organisms.

That's where we're coming from.

It is proof that all things can mean whatever you want them to mean providing you ignore some of them..

It still looks like a cross
and it has 6 ends made of three parts NOT 6 times 3.
6 in the Bible means the number of natural man.
