Science in Luke

1. When was Jesus born? 2:1

2. The devil takes Jesus to the top of a mountain and shows him "all the kingdoms of the world." I guess the world was flat in those days. 4:5

3. "Thy faith hath made thee whole."
   If you have enough faith, you will never get sick.
   (Illness is caused by sin and lack of faith. Medical science is unnecessary.) 8:48

4. Epilepsy is caused by devils. 9:39

5. People who cannot speak are possessed with devils. 11:14

6. Illnesses are caused by Satan. 13:11-16

7. Jesus believed the story of Noah's ark. 17:26-27

8. Jesus also believes the story about Sodom's destruction. He says, "even thus shall it be in the day the son of man is revealed." This tells us about Jesus' knowledge of science and history. 17:29-32

9. "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars." 21:25

10. When Jesus was crucified, there was three hours of complete darkness "over all the earth." It is strange that there is no record of this extraordinary event outside of the gospels. 23:44-45
