DNA Coding and God

Objective
Written By Edward Wolfe

“DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software ever created,” Bill Gates.

The origin and nature of life provide powerful evidence for the existence and nature of the Creator. People who do not believe in God still must admit to the mystery of life’s origins. The more we know about the early earth and the nature of life, the more intractable the problem of life’s origins becomes. How could life spring from lifeless matter? Simply throwing the word “evolution” at the problem doesn’t solve a thing. Rather, the complex coding in DNA strongly implies the existence of an intelligent Creator.

My book, Is Jesus Real?, deals with this issue from a layman’s perspective in Chapter 5, “Objective Evidence from Biology and Information Science.” I invite my reader to examine the links in the book and in this blog article to see a small sampling of the overwhelming evidence for the existence and nature of a Creator, who is super powerful, super intelligent, and super caring—meticulously, dazzlingly attentive to detail.

The God of the Bible fits the profile of the Creator we see in nature in general, and in life in particular. He is trustworthy of our profound trust: “Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15).

Edward Wolfe has been a fan of Christian apologetics since his teenage years, when he began seriously to question the truth of the Bible and the reality of Jesus. About twenty years ago, he started noticing that Christian evidences roughly fell into five categories, the five featured on this website.
Although much of his professional life has been in Christian circles (12 years on the faculties of Pacific Christian College, now a part of Hope International University, and Manhattan Christian College and also 12 years at First Christian Church of Tempe), much of his professional life has been in public institutions (4 years at the University of Colorado and 19 years at Tempe Preparatory Academy).
His formal academic preparation has been in the field of music. His bachelor degree was in Church Music with a minor in Bible where he studied with Roger Koerner, Sue Magnusson, Russel Squire, and John Rowe; his master’s was in Choral Conducting where he studied with Howard Swan, Gordon Paine, and Roger Ardrey; and his doctorate was in Piano Performance, Pedagogy, and Literature, where he also studied group dynamics, humanistic psychology, and Gestalt theory with Guy Duckworth.
He and his wife Louise have four grown children and six grandchildren.
