So, right now to date, there are 279 bible verses, who by definition, qualify under the scientific branch of biology. 

As of this post, we have just completed the halfway point in the alphabet.

So, is the letter N going to be covered next?

That question will be answered next time.

Do not feel discouraged if you do not see a connection with the 21 sets of verses from today from the Holy Bible that relate to the scientific field of biology. Do not feel discouraged if you are still unsure that the verses contained in the letters A through M contain any scientific relevance at all. Instead, understand that after you have read these verses, you are continuing the process of learning about the relationship between the scientific field of biology and the Holy Bible…perhaps without even realizing it.

15 And so shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in these tents, as this plague. (Zechariah 14:15 KJV)

Was today’s blog a little confusing at times? Was the content perhaps a little overwhelming? Did you feel lost not understanding some or most of the subject matter?

Those feelings are totally understandable and it is ok to have one or more of those feelings. Remember that you are reading Day 116: The Holy Bible And Biology – M.

If you haven’t been in class since the first day of school…or when the project began…or when the contract was first signed, etc., these feelings make perfect and logistical sense.

Please feel free to go back to where all of this began:
