Description

God’s amazing grace prevents the destruction of humanity during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. God in His foreknowledge made a provision within the human body to defend us from viruses, bacteria, and harmful substances even before sin and disease entered the world. This machinery called the immune system produces specific antibodies to destroy antigens. To adapt to invaders such as the COVID-19 virus that the body has never encountered before, the immune system can generate countless new antibodies. It is estimated by researchers from Scripps Research Institute that the human body has the potential to make a quintillion, or one million trillion, unique antibodies that can bind to distinct antigens to destroy them. This concept of natural immunity created by God serves as a common ground of religious conviction for both the vaccinated and the unvaccinated groups. God built mechanisms in our body to fight the Covid-19 disease even before the appearance of the virus SARS CoV-2. However, sin has changed this course. This paper presents the current statistics for COVID-19 disease among the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups and provides Biblical and scientific perspectives of common grounds for both the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups along with the advantages and disadvantages.
