In this section I address the importance of upholding Biblical morals and ethics pertaining to the alteration and modification of plant, animal and human life on planet earth through the use of GRIN Technologies. Special attention is given to the ethics of creating “new species” of life by blending human and animal cells through genetic engineering.

THE PROBLEM WITH CREATING NEW SPECIES ON EARTH
Written by Abri Brancken

Through bioengineering and other technologies, we are able to alter plant, animal and human life drastically, even to the point of creating new life forms that have not existed before on planet earth, new species that did not form part of God’s original design for life... Read more.

TAMPERING WITH GOD’S DESIGN
Written by Abri Brancken

“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 creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” - Genesis 1:26-27, KJV... Read more.

GRIN TECHNOLOGIES
Written by Abri Brancken

There are four accelerating technologies known as GRIN technologies playing a major role in life alteration. GRIN technology is the term used to refer to Genetics, Robotics, Intelligence (Information) and Nanotechnology. The accelerating convergence of GRIN technologies might and are producing results that the average uninformed person would almost consider unimaginable and these will most probably usher in an era of ‘unprecedented possibilities’...

THE IMPORTANCE OF YOUR WORLDVIEW
Written by Abri Brancken

A contributing factor towards many Christians not making a definite stand in the life alteration debate is due to a lack of seeing life for what it really is since most people have a worldview that is non-Biblical. Every person on earth has a worldview. Your worldview influences the way you live, how you will think, respond and act in any given circumstance. It is the integrative and interpretative framework of your life, your fundamental beliefs through which you view the world around you and by which you judge all things, how you see and interpret reality...

MORALS AND ETHICS
Written by Abri Brancken

But often, in the world’s most crowded streets, But often, in the din of strife, There rises an unspeakable desire, After the knowledge of our buried life: A thirst to spend our fire and restless force In tracking out our true, original course; A longing to inquire Into the mystery of this heart which beats, So wild, so deep in us – to know, Whence our lives come and where they go. Matthew Arnold, “The Buried Life”... Read more.

LIFE IS IN THE BLOOD
Written by Abri Brancken

Blood is a requirement for fleshly life, because life is in the blood. The Bible makes several references to this truth that science only in recent years discovered to be true. God commanded the Hebrews not to consume the blood of an animal, as doing so would be to consume the very life of that flesh seeing that blood is for the production, preservation, and continuance of life. Human and animal life depends on it... Read more.

ALTERING GOD’S DESIGN IS NOT NEW!
Written by Abri Brancken

We have now arrived at a fairly intricate part of this thesis where the spiritual drive behind life alteration and the creation of new species needs to be explored in greater detail. To uphold moral and ethical values in dealing with life alteration and creation, we need to approach the topic holistically, which means that we should not only consider everyday scientific and technological actions aiming at altering life and creating new ones, but we should also consider the spiritual motivation behind these actions...

THE FUTURE
Written by Abri Bracken

The Days of Noah and Lot - A repeat of events coming?
“But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” - Matthew 24:37, KJV

The days of Noah represents one of the most strategic time periods in history, and the importance of a proper understanding of that period and the relevance to our world today, is vital. To clarify the key elements of the continued interpretive contention is important and gaining understanding will clarify the malignity of evil itself. There is a definite evil influence and culpability in the great underlying conflicts which beset our world. The drive towards moving away from God’s design of life towards a transhumanistic society is far from being innocent in nature. As Christians we need to consider the progress of wickedness and corruption among the antediluvians, as by acquainting ourselves with it we can better arm ourselves against the errors and temptations of increasing evil that we need to stand against in our own times. (I John 5:13, Romans 15:4; I Corinthians 10:11; II Timothy 3:16-17). The antediluvian age, as we have discussed, was greatly shrouded in abundant mystery and bizarre events... Read more.
