What is a stem cell and what does it prove? This research has already proven the greatest cure known to humanity.We must first understand what a stem cell is. Scientists discovered that the seed from a man can be kept indefinitly. They also discovered that an egg from a women by itself would only survive for a short period of time. This made it impossible to store the eggs from a women because they would perish.
What they did find was if the egg was combined with the sperm then the eggs could be kept indefinitly. This in itself proves that eternal life is possible and there does not need to be any further research with stem cells. The answer is right in front of there nose. By understanding the elements of this scientific experiment we can know what the results mean.
If you have not read "Male and female" it will help understanding what these elements represent.
The egg is harvested from a woman, which represents humanity and our potential of becoming a new creation. By ourselves we are a temporary element that will perish without the seed of man, represented by the word of God... Jesus/Yahshua.
John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of men. 10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. 11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God-- 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. 14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.1 John 5:20 And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
We are represented by the egg of the woman. Apart from Jesus we will only survive for a short time and then, we will perish. By being joined to Jesus Christ we become a new creation that will remain forever.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
1 John 5:
1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves his Son as well. 10 Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11 And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.In that pe'tri dish, under the microscope, science can see the gospel of Jesus Christ demonstrated by the created elements found in that dish.
Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
