Back to God's World | Back to Fish & Birds

To those who have been taught to believe that life in the oceans began with a single-celled creature, the Genesis account presents an astounding picture:

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life…..and God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind… (Genesis 1:20-21).

You will notice that in the listing of sea creatures in Genesis 1:21 great whales are mentioned first.
It is just as if God were intentionally contrasting His great powers of creation with the evolutionary hypothesis which He knew would eventually dominate the world of Scientific speculation concerning origins.

The blue whale is the largest animal that has ever lived. Some individuals attaining a length of 110 feet and a weight of 300,000 pounds.
For the God of creation, this was no problem at all, for He created the earth out of nothing by a mere word.
