The Discovery of Genesis

You may say that I am reading between the lines here, but the evidence gathered to show that the Chinese language goes back to Genesis is astonishing. The research began in the 1920’s and 30’s by Pastor C. H. Kang. It was during a hospital visit with a very intelligent woman that Pastor Kang was confronted with the theory of evolution. Feeling embarrassed that he did not have the scientific evidence to show support for the Creation account, Pastor Kang remembered a footnote in a Mandarin textbook that was used by a missionary.The Chinese character for the word “ship” was a combination of three symbols; vessel, eight, and mouth. Putting these three characters together formed the word “boat.” Over the next 40 years, the research and thoughts would be put into book form and today the book The Discovery of Genesis contains dozens of examples of how the truths of Genesis are found hidden in the Chinese language.

Ship

vessel + eight + mouth (family member) = Ship

Creation

dust + (breath of) life + (from God’s) mouth + motion = Creation

Forbidden

tree (of knowledge) + tree (of life) + command (from God) = Forbidden

Righteousness

Lamb + (above) me = Righteousness
