10 THE MIRACLE IN THE SPIDER
ome readers may think that the subject of this book is not one that
interests them very much. They may tell themselves both that a
S book about a little insect has nothing in it for them, and that the
busy pace of their lives leaves them no time for such a book.
Then again, these same people may feel that a book on economic or
political research, or perhaps a novel, would be more attractive and
"useful." Or they may think that books on other subjects will be of greater
interest to them. Whereas the fact is that this book the reader is holding
will be a great deal more "useful" than many he has hitherto read, and has
much more to offer him. Because this book is not a biology text written to
give detailed information about this tiny animal called the spider. The
book may have the spider as its subject, but its true importance lies in the
truth about life it reveals and the message it has to give.
Like a key… A key is a tool which looks pretty unimportant in itself.
If you give one to a person who has never seen one before, and who is
therefore unaware of the relationship between key and lock, he will
consider the thing in his hand meaningless and a useless piece of metal.
Whereas sometimes a key, depending upon what lies behind the door that
it opens, can be one of the most valuable things in the world.
This book has been written, not with the aim of taking the spider as

door which this key opens, it is the greatest truth anyone can ever
discover throughout the course of his life. Because it demonstrates how
baseless is the theory of evolution, propounded by people who want to
deny the truth, is and provides answers to questions, answers that
mankind has been searching for since the dawn of time. The answers to
such fundamental questions as "Who am I?" "How were the universe and
I created?" and "What is the point and meaning of life?" are the reality
behind this door.
The answer is this: human beings and the universe they inhabit were
created, down to the tiniest detail, by one Creator, and exist to show that
He exists and to praise Him. That Creator, who has no imperfections or
weaknesses, but who is infinitely powerful, is God. As God has revealed
