Since elementary days, we have been taught of living and non - living things its structures and functions. Our teachers always gave us the definition of what science is.
In my personal experienced since elementary grades, I learned that science is a systematized body of information derived from scientific methods. It is also the knowledge, gained through careful observations of objects and events ( Capco and Yang, 1985, Biology) There are so many definitions what science is. I am not so much concerned about science and religion when I was in elementary. What I want is to eat play and watch my favorite show on the television. My parents together with my grand mother go to mass every Sunday except for my grandfather for he seldom attend masses most of his life. I usually go with them to the cathedral some kilometers away from our residence. When I was in high school in early, 1980’s my father enrolled me at Notre Dame of Cotabato Boys Department run and manage by the Marist brothers of the schools, an exclusive school for boys. There my spiritual life started to spark, because of our religious classes and activities in school. I started to have interest in my catholic faith. I really like how the Marist brothers disciplined us and they wanted us to be always with Jesus through Mary. I started to be active in religious activities and even joined religious club in school. I really love to be in the church every Sunday. I do not want to miss the 7:00 am mass because it is our students mass in Immaculate Conception Cathedral a few meters away from our school.
When I was in second year high school, I became one of the school contestants to the Regional Science Fair in Iligan City, because I won the Division level Science Investigatory Project Researcher. My interest in science subject was ignited. It was an exciting experience because I went to the place where I never been before in my entire life.. I joined the Science club in school. In my high school days I have been bothered by the question, “Can science explain the life, works, and miracles of Jesus?”
In college, I took up Bachelor of Science in Biology because it was my dream, to be a doctor. However, the very reason why I took up science course was that, may be I could find some answers to my question about religion and science.
I grew up with my grandmother and grandfather, in my mother side. My grandmother taught me Christian values. I learned how to pray and to be closer to Jesus and Mary. She was a prayerful, religious and downhearted woman. I saw Mary on her. I knew she is in heaven now. She was the reason how I came to know Jesus and Mary. She died on October 18, 1999.
My question was still unanswered even though I had my religious studies. Most of my subjects were life sciences. My teachers in college were all smart and brilliant enough to let us understand that they wanted to impart in us, especially that knowledge we need will bring us to a better future. I am not contented with my life because I have not yet found the answers to my questions in life.
One sunny morning after my class, I happened to be in a car going home with other students. Some one in the jeepney invited me to attend their bible study in the afternoon of that same day under the acacia tree in our school campus. I ask the students of her religion and she answered me, I am a Born again Christian. My eyebrow met when I heard the answer. I just nod my head; there at that moment, I ask my self, “What is in the bible that they are going to study?” So, when I arrived home I immediately went to my room and get a copy of our bible. I opened it and it was in Mark 16:15 “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” Moreover, I ask my self, “What does the message mean?” In searching the answers to my questions, I was able to organize a group of young students at my age for a bible sharing and study on the grassy ground of our school campus ministry. We were about three that time. We first met for bible sharing and study then the next meeting five and we were increasing in number. On July 12, 1986, we decided to give a name to our group, the Catholic Holy Scripture Group. Rev.Fr. Laurence Duffy, a Marist Father assigned in our locality became our first spiritual adviser on July 14, 1986. The group became an inspiration to me because when the group started I never stopped studying the contents and words written in the Holy Scriptures. My relationship with Jesus became deeper and deeper and I love to be with Him always. Almost twice a week we have our bible sharing and study. We have experience changes in our lives and inspired daily. It is as if we want to be with one another always. The word in the Holy Scripture is active in us. It became devotion in my daily life, to read and reflect on the scriptures. There I realized that slowly the questions in my mind were answered. The words of God in the Holy Scriptures became my daily bread. My life started to become more meaningful with the Lord and with my brothers and sisters in the group who gives me strength and inspiration. Our members started to grow in number. Grow in faith and love for Jesus and His words in the Holy Scriptures. We started our mission in the different schools in Cotabato City and North Cotabato area by going to schools and inspire them to read the bible and study it in accordance to the Catholic Church’s teaching.
As I continued to do our mission and read the Holy Scripture, I came across the life and works of Jesus in the Bible; there I remembered the question in my mind long time ago. “Can science explain the life work and miracles of Jesus?” “Is Jesus beyond Science?”
Can science explain in a systematized way derived from scientific methods, the life and works of Jesus? I would like to begin with Jesus walks on water in John 6:16-21, Mt.14:22-23 and Mk. 6:45-52 that should be explained by the science of Physics, the law of buoyancy. The science of Physics should explain the Transfiguration of Jesus as the law of light energy written on Mark 9:2-3 and Mt. 28:2-4, the law of gravity in Lk. 24:50-53, Mk.16_19-20, Acts 19:11. Jesus went to a wedding in Cana; He turned the water into wine, Jn.2:11 in which Mary His Mother was the eyewitness, the science of chemistry, changes in matter should clear this. It includes the transubstantiation of wine and bread to body and blood of Jesus in Jn.6:54-56, Mk.14:22-25, Mt.26:26-30, Lk.22:14-20 and 1Cor.11:23-25. These were proven by the miracles of the body and blood in Lanciano, Italy tested and proven by scientist. It happened in 700 A.D and in 1970-1971; Dr. Odoardo Linoli a well knowned scientist, Pathologist studied the said flesh. It was real flesh and blood of a human being. It was from the myocardium of the heart, the blood type is AB, and it remains a phenomenon according to science. The healing miracles of Jesus as follows Mk. 1:40-45, Lk.5:12-16, Mt.1:1-4 when Jesus heals many skin diseases. Jesus heals a Roman officers servant, Mt.8:5-13, Lk.7:1-10, the healing of many people in Mt.8:14-17, Mk.1:29-34 and Lk.4:38-41, the two women possessed and healed, Mt.8:28-34, Mk.5:1-20, Lk.8:26-39. The paralyzed man healed, Mt. 9:1-8, Mk.2:1-12, Lk.5:17-26.
The official’s daughter and the woman who touched Jesus cloak in Mt.9:18-26, Mk. 5:21-43, Lk. 8:40-56. Jesus healed two blind men, Mt.9:27-31, Jesus healed a man in Mk.1:40-44, Mt.8:1-4 and Lk. 5:12-16, when Jesus healed a man with a paralyzed hand in Mk.3:1-6, Mt.12:9-14 and Lk. 6:6-11.
Jesus healed a man with evil spirits written in Mk.5:1-20, Mt.8:28-34 and Lk.8:26-39. A woman with a child possessed by the evil spirit in the gospels of Mk.7:24-30 and Mt.15:21-28. Jesus healed a deaf mute in Mk.7:31-37, A blind man healed by Jesus at Bethsaida Mk.8:22-26, Jesus healed a boy with an evil spirit in Mk.9:14-29, when Jesus healed the blind Bartimaeus in Mk.10:46-52.
A man with an evil spirit Lk.4:31-35 and Mk.1:21-28. Jesus taught and healed in Lk.6:17-19 and Mt.4:23-25. Jesus in Lk.7 raised the widow’s son: 11-17. Jesus healed a sick man, Lk.14:1-6, ten men healed, Lk.17:11-19. Blind beggar was healed in Lk.18:35-43. Jesus healed an official’s son in Jn.4:43-54, Jesus healed at the pool Jn.5:1-18. A man born blind was healed Jn.9:1-12.
Let the doctors and other specialists in our world today, to explain how all these things happened. In Mathematics the multiplication of the bread and fish written in Lk.9:10-17, Mt.14:13-21, Mk.6:30-44 and Jn. 6:1-14. In the explanation of other scholars today, that it happened because of the people who shared their food to one another after Jesus prayed to the Father. The question
Was “where in the bible written that people shared fish and bread to everybody?” Here Jesus said to these “people of wisdom” “Where is your faith?” Mark 4:40 and Matthew 14:31. Why don’t we have faith, that Jesus is beyond our human understanding, Jesus, is God. He is beyond science.
How could the science of Gynecology and Embryology explain Luke 1:29-38, when Mary conceived Jesus in Her womb without any man touching her, the Immaculate Conception? When Elizabeth the cousin of Mary the mother of Jesus get pregnant in an old age in Lk.1:11-20.
When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, the three wise men cannot find the place where Jesus was born but because of the star, they found Jesus in a manger in Bethlehem written in Mt. 2:1-2, 9-10. Let the science of astrology explain it.
The sky opened during the baptism of Jesus in the river Jordan in Lk. 3:21-22, 13-17 and Mk.1:9-11 the science of Meteorology have to explain it. Where and how the cloud did appear and covered Jesus, Elijah and Moses in the transfiguration, Mk.9:7-8. Moreover, how Jesus calms the storm down in Mk.4; 35-39, Mt.8:23-27 and Lk.8:22-25 these events should be explained by the science of Meteorology.
Jesus and His apostles gone into fishing after the resurrection, the apostles catch so many fish when Jesus ordered them to throw the net on the right side, Jn.21:3-6. An even animal like fish is under Jesus’ power. When the dove came down from heaven in the gospels of Jn.1:32, Lk.3:21-22, Mt.3:13-17 and Mk.9:9-11 let the science of Zoology explain this as experts in studying animals.
In Jn.20:24-29, Mk.16:1-7, Mt.28:1-8, Lk.24:1-12, Jn.20:1-10 and Mk.15:16-17, the people of Israel, the Jews, the Gentiles, believers and non believers alike knew that Jesus was crucified, He died, He was buried but here in this account He was alive.
In anatomy and Physiology, how a dead body could be raised up from the grave. Anatomy and Physiology may have an explanation on this.
On His way back to the city early morning, Jesus was hungry. He saw a fig tree by the side of the road and went to it, but found nothing on it except leaves. So he said to the tree “you will never bear fruit” at once the fig tree dried up. Matthew 21:18-22, Mk.11:20-24, how could this happened, let the science of Botany explained for they were the science that studies plants.
The dead man Lazarus for four days was raised to life by the words of Jesus written in Jn.11:38-44. How the son of the carpenter and a simple housekeeper could, could have the words that can raise the dead to life. The science of Physiology and Medicine should have an explanation on this account for they are experts on life and its function.
Seismology is the branch of science that studies earthquakes or artificially induced earth tremors (Grolier Webster’s Dictionary) should give us the explanation on the death of Jesus and how come the Jewish temple was damaged so greatly that the altar was tear off, written in Mt.27:51-54 and Mt.28:1-2.
Jesus also had predicted and knows the future. All these things happened. The believers and non-believers alike have witnessed all these events. The Gospels have these written, Jesus said Peter will deny Him and it happened, Mt.26:31-35, Mk.14:27-31, Jn.13:36-38, Jesus told His apostles of His death, Jn. 12:27-36, Mt.16:21-23, Mk.8:31, 9:1, Lk.9:22-27, Mt.20:17-19, Mk.10:32-34, Lk.18:31-34. If we are alive and hear Jesus talking about His death, we will be amazed and have that feeling of awe, and say, “how could this man know the future even His death?” Even the persecutions of His followers. Mt.10:16-23, Mk.13:9-13, Lk.21:12-17, Mt.24:3-14, Lk.21:7-19. He also speaks about the future destruction, Mt.24:1-25, Mk.13:1-27, Lk.21:5-28. Moreover, His coming as king and judge in Mt.24:29-31, Mk.13:24-27, Lk.21:25-28 at the end of times. Here the science of Metaphysics is being challenge because this is a branch of science that seeks to explain the nature of being and reality and it is speculative philosophy in general. (Webster International English Dictionary)
When Jesus called one by one His twelve apostles they followed Him and left everything they have. Practically speaking, “why one man should go with the person whom personally he does not know?” When Jesus called their name and said come Follow Me” they left everything and followed Jesus. Lk.5:1-11, Mt.4:18-22, Mk.1:16-20, Jn.1:35-51. The science of Psychology should explain this event. Psychology is the science that studies the human mind and behavior and mental state.
Even the spirits obey Jesus and know who Jesus is. Mk.5:1-13, Mt.8:28-34, Lk.8:26-39, Mk.9:14-27, Mt.17:14-21, Lk.9:37-43, Lk.4:31-37 and Mk.1:21-28, the psychics must explain these in the basis of scientific methods and principles, who this man called Jesus.
The different branches of science should prove and explain, the events in the life of Jesus, basing on the systematized body of information derived from the scientific methods and knowledge gained through careful observations of objects and events (Biology, Capco and Yang). If Jesus is just mere human being, how could all these events happen which the human mind cannot comprehend and grasp. If Jesus is in the scope of human mind, He is under science.
Almost no branches of science can explain the events in Jesus life on earth. Impossible things made possible. Scientific methods to derive information is not applicable to the events in the life of Jesus, man had ever experienced during His public ministry as well as during our days. The science of faith as I call it, Miracles. Miracle up to these days does happen. Unexplainable instances and experience of human cannot be explained by merely scientific methods and human knowledge. Faith can, beyond science.
God made man and gave him mind to have knowledge, gain wisdom and understanding. Our minds are just one product of Gods love to us. Minds cannot go beyond the creator for He is the source of knowledge, wisdom and understanding man possess. Science is a vast of knowledge, the product of human minds, and the result of Gods gift for His children. It is Gods gift to man therefore the gift cannot supersedes the Giver. Jesus’ life on earth is one of the miracles ever happened beyond science but with in the parameter of faith. Much more, if Jesus is living in our hearts and minds, He is the greatest miracle ever happened in ones life. He changes everything what science have proven. Jesus is a fact and real person born of the Virgin Mary, but beyond science and human understanding, He is God. The wonder workers, the greatest miracle of Gods love to man. Unexplainable events happened, seen and experienced by the apostles, the believers are all recorded and passed on to the next generation. What this person named Jesus has done. Is this Jesus just an imagination or are these events written through time are just folktales? Only faith can say Jesus is Lord and God and He is beyond science. Isn’t it, these events, enough to prove that Jesus exists? That He is not a product of human imagination. He lives with us. In our hearts today. He was with His apostles yesterday and He will live and reigns forever. The only science that can say that Jesus is beyond science is Faith. Jesus is beyond science more than we ever know.
Glory to God the Father
Praise to Jesus His Son, Who is beyond science
Alleluia to the Holy Spirit
One God Forever!!!! AMEN! AMEN and AMEN!!!!

Lk.5:1-11, Mt.4:18-22, Mk.1:16-20, Jn.1:35-51. The science of Psychology should explain this event. Psychology is the science that studies the human mind and behavior and mental state.
Even the spirits obey Jesus and know who Jesus is. Mk.5:1-13, Mt.8:28-34, Lk.8:26-39, Mk.9:14-27, Mt.17:14-21, Lk.9:37-43, Lk.4:31-37 and Mk.1:21-28, the psychics must explain these in the basis of scientific methods and principles, who this man called Jesus.
The different branches of science should prove and explain, the events in the life of Jesus, basing on the systematized body of information derived from the scientific methods and knowledge gained through careful observations of objects and events (Biology, Capco and Yang). If Jesus is just mere human being, how could all these events happen which the human mind cannot comprehend and grasp. If Jesus is in the scope of human mind, He is under science.
Almost no branches of science can explain the events in Jesus life on earth. Impossible things made possible. Scientific methods to derive information is not applicable to the events in the life of Jesus, man had ever experienced during His public ministry as well as during our days. The science of faith as I call it, Miracles. Miracle up to these days does happen. Unexplainable instances and experience of human cannot be explained by merely scientific methods and human knowledge. Faith can, beyond science.
God made man and gave him mind to have knowledge, gain wisdom and understanding. Our minds are just one product of Gods love to us. Minds cannot go beyond the creator for He is the source of knowledge, wisdom and understanding man possess. Science is a vast of knowledge, the product of human minds, and the result of Gods gift for His children. It is Gods gift to man therefore the gift cannot supersedes the Giver. Jesus’ life on earth is one of the miracles ever happened beyond science but with in the parameter of faith. Much more, if Jesus is living in our hearts and minds, He is the greatest miracle ever happened in ones life. He changes everything what science have proven. Jesus is a fact and real person born of the Virgin Mary, but beyond science and human understanding, He is God. The wonder workers, the greatest miracle of Gods love to man. Unexplainable events happened, seen and experienced by the apostles, the believers are all recorded and passed on to the next generation. What this person named Jesus has done. Is this Jesus just an imagination or are these events written through time are just folktales? Only faith can say Jesus is Lord and God and He is beyond science. Isn’t it, these events, enough to prove that Jesus exists? That He is not a product of human imagination. He lives with us. In our hearts today. He was with His apostles yesterday and He will live and reigns forever. The only science that can say that Jesus is beyond science is Faith. Jesus is beyond science more than we ever know.
Glory to God the Father
Praise to Jesus His Son, Who is beyond science
Alleluia to the Holy Spirit
One God Forever!!!! AMEN! AMEN and AMEN!!!!
