other parts of the body, these are surrounded by a membrane com-
posed of three layers. And with great meticulousness, these three
layers decide which substances will be filtered and excreted, and
which will be retained and sent back to the body. Now, on what
basis—and with which mechanism—does a cell membrane ana-
lyze, one by one, substances coming through the bloodstream and
decide where they need to go?
In any liter of blood, there are dozens of dissolved compounds
that reach the kidneys, including glucose, bicarbonate, sodium,
chlorine, urea, and creatine. The kidneys excrete from the body
some of these substances entirely, remove only parts of some oth-
ers, and still others they return to the bloodstream in their entire-
ty. But how does a piece of tissue decide which substances to
discard, and how much? The answer lies in the fact that kidney tis-
sue has been created with a perfect plan.
The glomeruli's selectivity is determined by the electric charge
and size of the molecules it detects in the blood. This means that
the glomeruli have the ability to determine the molecular weight
of the sodium and glucose and the negative charge of the proteins
all mixed up in the blood. In this way, proteins vital to the body are
not discarded, but retained for further use.
But the glomerulus is made up of capillaries only. How do you
suppose that a structure can possess such superior discrimination,
even though it's never been educated in chemistry, physics or biol-
ogy? The glomeruli can carry out such functions faultlessly
because they act through the inspiration given to them by the One
Who created them—that is, God.
Under no circumstances is their selection of substances left to
chance. If it were, by the time these unconscious organs located the
correct molecules, our bodies could no longer function. All of this
is just one proof of the perfect creation of God.
