• The Bible describes the circulation of the atmosphere.
  
  
  Ecclesiastes 1:6
  The wind goes toward the south,
  And turns around to the north;
  The wind whirls about continually,
  And comes again on its circuit.
• The Bible includes some principles of fluid dynamics.
  
  
  Job 28:25
  To establish a weight for the wind,
  And apportion the waters by measure.
  The fact that air has weight was proven scientifically only about 300 years ago. The relative weights of air and water are needed for the efficient functioning of the world’s hydrologic cycle, which in turn sustains life on the earth.[1] (If you are a physics enthusiast, please ignore our omission of the terms mass, gravity, and density from this comment.)

Statements Consistent With Biology

• The book of Leviticus (written prior to 1400 BC) describes the value of blood.
  
  
  Leviticus 17:11
  ‘For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.’
  The blood carries water and nourishment to every cell, maintains the body’s temperature, and removes the waste material of the body’s cells. The blood also carries oxygen from the lungs throughout the body. In 1616, William Harvey discovered that blood circulation is the key factor in physical life—confirming what the Bible revealed 3,000 years earlier.[1]
• The Bible describes biogenesis (the development of living organisms from other living organisms) and the stability of each kind of living organism.
  
  
  Genesis 1:11,12
  Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth”; and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
  
  
  Genesis 1:21
  So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
  
  
  Genesis 1:25
  And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
  The phrase “according to its kind” occurs repeatedly, stressing the reproductive integrity of each kind of animal and plant. Today we know this occurs because all of these reproductive systems are programmed by their genetic codes.[1]
