God said: “Let there be light, and there was light”. (Genesis 1:3) For everything He creates, He uses statements and a language, the living Word, to create living objects out of nothing. This is exactly what we do as software developers. We create virtual objects out of nothing by using statements from our preferred programming language. Even the most important keyword in a programming language is the same as the one found in the Bible. The keyword let is adopted in many programming languages to create variables, and is exactly the same as the one God used to create all life on earth! ;-)
This is not by accident. Because we are made in His image, He also created in us the ability to be creative, and thus as we create, we “naturally” are inclined to create in the same way as He created us...
Think about how men have developed propeller motors in the 19th century, not knowing that they were already Intelligently created in nature, even with the same mechanical parts, thousands of years earlier, as can be seen for example in the multi-component bacteria flagella:
This same principle is also at work when Theoretical cosmologists like Hawking or Einstein find new theories, and predict phenomenons to explain the nature of the universe, that are yet to be observed and confirmed by the Observational cosmologists.
