Does the Earth evince design? If the Earth evinces purposeful design, there must have been a designer. If the Earth evinces purposeful design, there must have been a designer. The Earth does evince purposeful design. The Earth does evince purposeful design. Therefore, the Earth must have had a designer. Therefore, the Earth must have had a designer. Is it more reasonable to believe the design of the earth was PLANNED or that it happened JUST BY ACCIDENT?

The Location of the Earth 93 million miles from the Sun 93 million miles from the Sun –A 12,000,000°F heat source with an interior temperature of more than 20 million degrees Celsius –Like a giant nuclear engine—giving off more energy in a single second (8 million tons) than mankind has produced since the Creation The EXACT distance to receive the proper amount of heat and radiation to sustain life as we know it. The EXACT distance to receive the proper amount of heat and radiation to sustain life as we know it. The location of the Earth is JUST RIGHT! The location of the Earth is JUST RIGHT!

The Orbit of the Earth Elliptical—not perfect circle Elliptical—not perfect circle –Sometimes closer to Sun –Sometimes farther from Sun Orbit not at a constant rate Orbit not at a constant rate –When closer, moves faster –When farther away, moves slower Departs from a straight line by only one-ninth of an inch every eighteen miles Departs from a straight line by only one-ninth of an inch every eighteen miles The EXACT orbit to keep a proper and safe distance and allow for our seasons. The EXACT orbit to keep a proper and safe distance and allow for our seasons. The orbit of the Earth is JUST RIGHT! The orbit of the Earth is JUST RIGHT!

The Rotation of the Earth Rotates at ~1,000 mph at equator Rotates at ~1,000 mph at equator –While Earth orbits at 67,000 mph around Sun –While solar system travels at 600,000 mph Provides periods of light & darkness necessary for sustaining life Provides periods of light & darkness necessary for sustaining life –If faster—fierce cyclones would be stirred up over the Earth & be difficult to grow crops –If slower—days and nights would be impossibly hot or cold The EXACT rotation speed to maintain proper balance of temperatures & seasons The EXACT rotation speed to maintain proper balance of temperatures & seasons The rotation of the Earth is JUST RIGHT! The rotation of the Earth is JUST RIGHT!

The Tilt of the Earth Tilted on its axis at exactly 23.5 degrees Tilted on its axis at exactly 23.5 degrees If it were straight up: If it were straight up: –Water would accumulate at the poles, leaving vast deserts in between. –There would be no seasons. If it were tilted 90 degrees: If it were tilted 90 degrees: –The Earth would alternate between very cold winters and very hot summers The EXACT tilt to sustain moderate water levels, seasons & temperatures. The EXACT tilt to sustain moderate water levels, seasons & temperatures. The tilt of the Earth is JUST RIGHT! The tilt of the Earth is JUST RIGHT!

The Waters of the Earth Water covers 72% of Earth’s surface Water covers 72% of Earth’s surface Provides a reservoir of moisture constantly evaporating & condensing and falling as rain Provides a reservoir of moisture constantly evaporating & condensing and falling as rain Holds its temperature longer, providing a natural heating/AC system for land areas Holds its temperature longer, providing a natural heating/AC system for land areas Human dependence on plant life Human dependence on plant life –Plants give off oxygen which we need –90% of our oxygen from plants in the seas The EXACT water coverage for providing us with ideal moisture, temperature & oxygen The EXACT water coverage for providing us with ideal moisture, temperature & oxygen The waters of the Earth are JUST RIGHT! The waters of the Earth are JUST RIGHT!

Relation of the Earth to the Moon The Moon is 240,000 miles from the Earth The Moon is 240,000 miles from the Earth The Moon helps control the oceans/tides The Moon helps control the oceans/tides –Tides provide cleansing of shorelines & help ocean life to prosper –Without tides, the oceans would stagnate and the animals and plants living in the oceans and seas would soon perish If moved closer by just a fifth, twice a day the tides would reach feet high If moved closer by just a fifth, twice a day the tides would reach feet high The EXACT relation of moon to earth to maintain tide levels & ocean life The EXACT relation of moon to earth to maintain tide levels & ocean life The relation of moon to Earth is JUST RIGHT! The relation of moon to Earth is JUST RIGHT!

The Atmosphere of the Earth Contains proper balance of gases essential to life Contains proper balance of gases essential to life Scatters light & captures solar heat Scatters light & captures solar heat Protects the Earth & its inhabitants Protects the Earth & its inhabitants –From meteors falling from space –From dangerous levels of ultraviolet rays –From protons & electrons from the Sun Exerts a pressure of ~15 lbs/sq inch (~15-20 tons on the entire human body) Exerts a pressure of ~15 lbs/sq inch (~15-20 tons on the entire human body) The EXACT atmospheric contents, protection & pressure essential to sustain life The EXACT atmospheric contents, protection & pressure essential to sustain life The atmosphere of the Earth is JUST RIGHT! The atmosphere of the Earth is JUST RIGHT!

Does the Earth evince design? Exactly the right distance from the Sun Exactly the right distance from the Sun Exactly the right orbit around the Sun Exactly the right orbit around the Sun Exactly the right rotation on its axis Exactly the right rotation on its axis Exactly the right tilt on its axis Exactly the right tilt on its axis Exactly the right amount of water coverage Exactly the right amount of water coverage Exactly the right distance from the Moon Exactly the right distance from the Moon Exactly the right atmospheric contents Exactly the right atmospheric contents Exactly the right atmospheric pressure Exactly the right atmospheric pressure Is it more reasonable to believe the design of the earth was PLANNED or that it happened JUST BY ACCIDENT?

Design? or Accident?

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ If the letters of the alphabet were tossed into the air by chance force, they might fall in the present order of ABC’s once in more than five hundred million, million, million, million (1 in 503,291,461,116,595,535,584, 000,000) times that they were thus tossed up and allowed to come down without guidance. If there is that much chance of the ABC’s falling into their present order, how much possibility is there that the countless combinations in nature and this world would have come together in the wonderful, perfect, precise order that they have if they were tossed about by blind chance?

“For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.” (Heb. 3:4) “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.” (Rom. 1:20) “The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.” (Psa. 19:1)
