for a man's beard to emerge, the hair roots must literally know which por-
tion of their DNA has to be activated. In order for the male voice to deepen,
hormones trigger the appropriate region of the DNA in the cells of the
vocal cord.
This information is of crucial importance. Testosterone is a molecule
consisting of various numbers of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms,
with the chemical formula C H O . How does this inanimate, uncon-

scious compound know where to find the relevant information in the
DNA? More importantly, how can it locate the few letters it seeks from
among information consisting of 3 billion letters—sufficient to fill thou-
sands of encyclopedias— at great speed and without ever going wrong?
Naturally, this takes place with the inspiration of Almighty God, the one
God (Figure 72).
By now, hundreds of scientists have spent the last decade working on
the Human Genome Project. They have succeeded in reading DNA only by
using the most highly advanced technology. Yet
they still do not know which region of DNA is
concerned with which organ, protein or hor-
mone in the body. Yet the hormones estrogen
and testosterone know this very well, and
have been acting on that knowledge for mil-
lions of years, without error, in the bodies of
billions of human beings.
No doubt that this system by itself is a
marvel of creation in which the artistry of
Almighty God is revealed.

Figure 72.
Testosterone is able to locate the few
"letters" it seeks from among informa-
tion consisting of 3 billion letters,
enough to fill an encyclopedia thou-
sands of volumes in size. This is an-
other miracle of the countless
miracles in God's creation.
