GOD’S WORD FOR NOVEMBER 30 ~ ~ Isaiah 45:12~ ~ “I have made the earth, and created man upon it: my hands have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.”
As with other samples of tools, educational items, and remains of ancient man, which showed them to be intelligent and socially developed, contrary to what evolutionists tell us, there is another one found right here in North America.
Beneath the peat deposits of Windover Pond in Titusville, Florida, scientists are finding the bodies and possessions of Indians who lived in Florida thousands of years ago.
The bones of almost 100 individuals have been found buried in the peat at the deepest part of the pond. Each was buried in a near-fetal position, with feet toward the east and head toward the west. Each body lay on its left side, facing north. Children were buried with tools and jewelry. To the surprise of scientists, each burial shows clear evidence of ritual and knowledge of the compass points. Textiles found at the site convinced scientists that this ancient society was much more advanced than they had ever expected.
Scientists also marveled at the discovery of a young person who had a crippling spine disorder. The fact that the child lived 15 or more years illustrated that this was not a survival-of-the-fittest type of society.
We who know that the Creator made man fully human from the start are not surprised to see the same humanity in ancient man as we know today. Man has always been man because we were made that way by our Creator.
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.”
