This is false science; there is nothing in the word of God to sustain it. God does not annul His laws, but He is continually working through them, using them as His instruments. They are not self-working. God is perpetually at work in nature. She is His servant, directed as He pleases. Nature in her work testifies of the intelligent presence and active agency of a being who moves in all His works according to His will. It is not by an original power inherent in nature that year by year the earth yields its bounties and continues its march around the sun. The hand of infinite power is perpetually at work guiding this planet. It is God’s power momentarily exercised that keeps it in position in its rotation. {8T 259.4}

Dette er falsk videnskab. Der er intet i Guds ord, der støtter den. Gud ophæver ikke sine love, men han arbejder til stadighed igennem dem og bruger dem som sine redskaber. De er ikke selvvirkende. Gud arbejder bestandig (260) i naturen. Den er hans tjener og bliver ledet, som han synes. Naturen vidner på sin måde om tilstedeværelsen af et intelligent væsens nærværelse og aktive virke, der i alle sine gerninger handler efter sin egen vilje. Det er ikke ved nogen selvstændig iboende kraft i naturen, at jorden år efter år giver sine gaver og fortsætter sin vandring rundt om solen. Almagtens hånd er i stadig virksomhed og leder denne planet. Det er Guds krafts stadige virke, der holder den i stilling under dens rotation.
