The Chibi News Daily Reflection

Hi, I'm Chris Tufnell, a vicar in the Church of England. Medical science has given us incredible power over life
0:15
We can replace organs, restore sight and restart hearts that have stopped beating
0:21
We can unlock DNA, the very code of life itself, and tinker with it in ways unimaginable a generation ago
0:29
It's extraordinary. But something we cannot do is produce life in something dead. We can foster
0:37
life but not create it. Nor can we understand where life came from in the beginning. Christians
0:45
believe the reason we can't find a natural way that life might have begun is because there isn't
0:53
one. My favourite book of the Bible, John's Gospel, introduces the person of Jesus like this
1:00
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God
1:10
in the beginning. Through him all things were made. Without him nothing was made that has been made
1:17
in him was life. I believe Jesus, God the Son, brings things to life. That he did that physically
1:27
in the beginning and that he does that spiritually still today in anyone who believes in him
1:35
and receives him as their Lord
