Scientists in Israel have created synthetic rat embryos. While there are potential beneficial uses, this step may prove dangerous in the hands of scientists and leaders who do not fear or acknowledge the Creator. What do you think? What is the Lord telling you? Please share in the comments.

From The Daily Wire. Researchers in Israel have created the world’s first “synthetic embryos” in a landmark study, without using sperm or egg cells….

Get prayer updates from IFA.

 

“Remarkably, we show that embryonic stem cells generate whole synthetic embryos, meaning this includes the placenta and yolk sac surrounding the embryo,” said Dr. Jacob Hanna, who headed the study. “We are truly excited about this work and its implications.”

Researchers believe that this breakthrough could offer alternatives to animal experimentation and pave the way for new stem cell growth for human transplants. Skin cells could be potentially transformed into bone marrow stem cells, for example, to help treat patients suffering from leukemia….

Synthetic embryos failed to develop further when they were implanted into female mice. Human experimentation is purely hypothetical at this stage, although Hanna is optimistic about prospects for future research….

Other researchers are more uncertain about the practical and ethical prospects of future experimentation.

“Synthetic human embryos are not an immediate prospect. We know less about human embryos than mouse embryos and the inefficiency of the mouse synthetic embryos suggests that translating the findings to human requires further development,” Dr. James Briscoe, a researcher at London’s Francis Crick Institute, said to The Guardian. “Now is a good time to consider the best legal and ethical framework to regulate research and use of human synthetic embryos and to update the current regulations….”

What do you think of these synthetic embryos? Share your thoughts and prayers below.

You can only be made in the likeness and image of God if He designs it. As we see in Genesis 1:7, God breathed into the nostrils the breath or spirit of life, and man became a living being. Again, we are reminded in Ezekial 37: 5, “I will put breath and spirit in you… So, in essense, satan cannot create nor put life into man. He can only pervert creation (mnRA), or attempt to imitate what God has made which will never be successful. This is not the first time, he’s tried. I remember hearing back in the early 2000, how scientists from a foreign country claimed to have created man outside the womb only to later claim it was all a lie. Reminded again that satan is the father of lies.
Thak you Father for creating us and continue to protect us from the wile schemes of your enemy to destroy mankind. Amen.

NOTHING from the serpent will EVER be beneficial or a good idea!!! When will man learn? And we, the BODY of CHRIST, MUST do what God leads only! This “scientific” garbage is all lies from hell to destroy mankind and creation to desecrate the genome GOD MADE!! Everyone NEEDS to WAKE UP RIGHT NOW to what is REALLY going on!! They are trying to remove God and His image from His creation. He will NOT tolerate this! I’m so thankful Jesus IS King!

Creating synthetic embryos of any kind no matter what the benefits are is not a good idea, and most importantly not ordained/sanctioned by THE creator of all things. (His name is Yod Hey Vav Hey (Yahweh) God of Israel). When did He ever approve of doing such a thing? These people are playing God and it’s pure evil. I’m afraid they will be judged severely for it.

People not led by Holy Spirit are usually led astray. I believe this is another step in the wrong direction. We are living in a world filled with bad decisions and consequences everywhere!

I do not think this is a good path to follow. These people are trying to go around God.

Lord you created a perfect world for us forgive us for thinking we know how to improve it by altering your creation. Thank you for gifting us with the desire for change. Block any changes that would ultimately hurt us.

This research is another step along the path to transhumanism that the Elites wish to control all of us. My prayer is that their meddling with life and trying to rewrite genetic code as with the Mrna vaccines will fail. Father God, I pray that the evil intentions of the Elites will be exposed and that there will be a world-wide awakening to your call to know Jesus Christ as LORD and Savior. Amen!

    When God created us, as with His previous creation on the preceding days, He said, “It is good.” We cannot, nor do we need to, “improve” upon what God has “wonderfully and fearfully made.” When we attempt this, we don’t (because we can’t) improve upon God’s perfection, we instead pervert and eventually destroy what God has perfectly designed and created in His own image. post -“in whose image?” – http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com

“Know that the Lord is God. It is He who made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.” (Psalm 100:3) We or our culture at large, seem to have forgotten this eternal truth – which would explain why we are trying to recreate ourselves or improve upon what God has done, forgetting that we are already “wonderfully and fearfully made.” We are the clay, yet we want to dictate to the Potter how He should form us? And even that is not enough – but instead we actually want to be the Potter? – to take His place? So much time and effort spent trying to prolong the life of our physical bodies here on this earth, with so little thought and time spent preparing our souls for eternity. I feel this tension between the two as we all do. I think it is like C.S. Lewis said – we want to stay here, content to play in our mud puddle because we have no idea what is meant by an offer of a holiday at the sea. We simply can’t imagine it. “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love Him.” (1 Corinthians 2:9) We need to stop trying to be the Potter and instead pursue the Potter by being the clay, trusting Him to fashion something beautiful out of each and every life submitted to His purposes, which are always good and are eternal rather than temporal. We are not the authors nor the sustainers of life – we would do well to spend our selves in the quest to get to know the One who is. Pursuing immortality in our own means, wisdom and strength will surely fail, just as the tower of Babel fell. As for me, I will pursue, worship, trust, follow and obey the One of whom Paul said in his letter to the Colossians -“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.” There is only one Potter. Our hope/my hope lies in realizing we are/I am the clay, not the Potter – in knowing we are/I am the work of His hands and He will make everything (including me) beautiful in His time. http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com

I’m totally against this research. Does anyone have enough intelligence to understand where this can lead to. Sure everyone is thinking of great cures. Think long and hard on that, iof you got a brain to think with at all.

My first response to this is fear. Abortion is called a right. Tiny baby parts are bing harvested and sold from aborted children, this is called research. Dr. Hana stated, “Human experimentation is purely hypothetical at this stage.” All are lies and they are all tied to one another.

I pray his God and our God, the ONE GOD would demonstrate just how hypothetical this experimentation truly is. Heavenly Father, You are the Giver of Life. Only YOU. YOU change times and seasons; YOU remove leaders and set up leaders; YOU gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding; YOU reveal deep and hidden things; YOU know what is in the darkness and the light dwells with YOU. Please forgive us, sin is mounting up to Heaven and there seems to be no respite then I remember…

You said to Ezekiel, “Son of man, can these bones come to life?”
He replied, “O Lord GOD only You know.”

YOU then said “Prophesy to these bones and tell them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Lord GOD says to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you will come to life. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh grow upon you and cover you with skin. I will put breath within you so that you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.’ ”

As Ezekiel prophesied, the bones came together, tendons appeared on them, flesh grew, and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them.

You then said to Ezekiel, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and tell the breath that this is what the Lord GOD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, so that they may live!”

I pray You will have mercy on us all from the godless playing God. Science has always been in the hands of both wicked and wise. I pray Your breath of life in that which is for our good and for those who are playing God, they are in Your hands Father. I pray in the Name of Jesus Christ, the firstborn from the dead and the ruler of the kings of the earth, to Him be the Glory and Power forever, Amen.

Sh’ma Yis-ra-eil, A-do-nai E-lo-hei-nu, A-do-nai E-chad.
Ba-ruch sheim k’vod mal-chu-to l’o-lam va-ed.

Hear, O Israel, the L-rd is our G‑d, the L-rd is One.
Blessed be the name of the glory of His kingdom forever and ever.

Ezekiel 37, Daniel 2:21-22
Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Revelation 1: 4-6 Grace and peace to you from Him who is and was and is to come, and from the seven Spirits before His throne and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.

To Him who loves us and has released us from our sins by His blood, who has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and power forever and ever! Amen.

I read this headline and I wonder: Is this the new Tower of Babel? Remember that the reason the Tower of Babel was built was to reach the heights of God. It was man challenging God. If mankind today thinks of itself as the Creator of life (something God alone can do), how is this much different from the builders of the Tower of Babel seeking to reach God?

    Respectfully, no, according to scripture, they were building the tower to themselves! They didn’t give a fig about God’s glory or even their own gods.
    The title is what got me. This RN knows lots of docs who are so deceived. As deceived and as a result not just sliding down the slippery slope but taking a nose dive!
    Most likely these doctors and scientists truly care about people, the suffering they want to alleviate is real. But without asking or even acknowledging God, our Creator, Sustainer and Healer, they often don’t know how to show the care. Sometimes, like when Covid first came attacking in 2020, we had no clue what to do to help! To often asking ‘could we…’ before taking time to ask ‘should we …’.and frankly, during the pandemic I learned just how ‘sheepish’ we people really are, how easily ‘cast down’ we can become if not wise, courageous and vigilant!
    Thank God He is letting this come public knowledge!
    Lord, by the power of Jesus name we bind the enemy and loose Your Holy Spirit all over this research! Save the doctors and scientists involved and use them for Your glory. I can’t help thinking ‘wow’, this is happening in Israel. Open their eyes from the darkness of ignorance, pride, rebellion to worship YOU! Great I Am! Great M & M❣️Most High Poppa God🥰. ❤️‍🔥

Remembering the sheep that was cloned from another: it lived for awhile but after a certain time it died. When man manipulates with God almighty designed plans: it’s like the grass here and gone tomorrow. Man wants a super human race! Not realizing that in the name of Jesus we are sustained: through the power of the HOLY Kadosh we will pray and see miracles and wonders that man can’t and won’t be able to explain. Science can only imagine how the Lord almighty God designed our bodies: which they embarked to find the God particle, and why in our hearts we are forever wanting to worship our Creator. Praying for everyone to see the almighty God the Father as HE is a loving Dad who wanted a family to enjoy what HE created: paradise.

I think scientists have gone beyond the ethical principles of God by doing this. They have opened a door that will cause more harm in our world. Forgive them Lord.

Man is flawed, creations of life belong solely to Our creator GOD.
He alone will uncover cures for afflictions. He will place them in the hands his chosen.
Pray for failure on any attempts to falsely perform God’s work.

Synthetic embryos could be used for good but in the wrong hands, evil hands, hands that do not love nor love God can and will be used for evil. Same as the pre-flood Nephilim that were all destroyed, it most likely is, that they did not even have a human spirit, which only God Himself can create.
Jesus help us not to enter in to things we know not and end up with a terrible action which may not be able to be undone. In Jesus name amen.
