There is a God
Over the past year I’ve written a lot to those who do not believe in God. Now I’m not a great scholar but I think I’m intelligent enough to know make honest rational decisions when it comes to believing there is a God or not.
I believe the words of C. S. Lewis,
“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.”
C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain.
I believe most Atheist at least the one’s I’ve met, have a preconceived idea that God does not exist and simply look for facts that support their theory. That at the very least is bad science.
Many of these people look to figures in history that call themselves Christians, usually depots and murderers everyone from the crusaders to Adolf Hitler, men who are not by any stretch of the imagination Christian.
They look at what they call discrepancies between the Bible and science and say God cannot exist. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The Bible is a book of Faith first not a science book. It points people to the world around them and asks them to look at how perfectly the world is designed a design that could never come by chance and therefor had to have a creator.
Whether the world was made in six days or six billion years has no bearing on whether God exists or not.
The fact is there is a God. A creator of the universe who made everything to work in harmony.
The Psalmist states,
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.”
Psalm 19:1.
We only have to look around from the subatomic level to the universe beyond our planet to find everything in a order. This to me tells me there is a God.
More and more as good science is done I believe we will find evidence that God exists.
Even from a philosophical level one can determine that the Bible is true. The truths there in can apply to any situation man gets himself into.
The moral code the Bible has laid down for man is second to non. It is a moral code that transcends the ages.
The proof for God is all around. The key to finding God is to forget about preconceived ideas and open one’s mind to the fact that there just may be a God who sent his one and only Son Jesus Christ into his creation to save mankind.
Either that or 2,200,000,000 people, a third of the earths population is deluded?
Think about it.
