About God

“think about that. How is it possible that over ninety percent of all human beings who have ever lived usually in far more painful circumstances than we could believe in God? 
The objective evidence, just looking at the balance of pleasure and suffering in the world, would not seem to justify believing in an absolutely good God. Yet this has been almost universally believed.”
      Peter John Kreeft ph.d 
God is real. There is life beyond the grave. I believe it as do billions of people around the world. Irrespective of what Atheist may say God exists.
C. S. Lewis wrote,
“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.
The Psalmist wrote,
“The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 
                                                                                                          Psalm 19:1.
From the dawn of time man it seems has believed in an afterlife. Every culture in every part of the world believes this. I can’t believe this I can’t believe this is a coincidence. I believe it is built into man’s very being.
Man may deny it but it doesn’t make it any less real.
As I look at the world around me I see the perfect harmony of nature. I look up into the heavens and see wondrous sights. The stars, the galaxies the planets all in harmony with one another.
Mathematics shows us the harmony of our universe from the smallest part of an atom to the largest of galaxies. I cannot believe that all developed by chance.
To me it is the hand of a creator God.
I know I will never change the mind of an ardent Atheist. Someone who blinds him or herself to the perfection of the universe and refuses to at least look and examine the facts.
And I don’t believe that is my job as a Christian.
My job as a Christian as I see it is, to simply say there is a God who loves you. The apostle John recording Jesus as saying,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.  Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” 
                                                                                                            John 3:16-18.
My Job is to ask them to at least think about it.
