102. IS GOD REALLY TRUE? Find out! Acts 14:17.

Do you truly believe there is a real God who made all things. Including you? If you’re answer is yes, then your blessed. On the other hand if you don’t really believe in God, or you don’t know, or your not sure, try to make an eye, an ear or a brain from nothing, or try to make a flower that can produce nectar that can be collected by bees and transformed into honey which can be eaten by us. We breathe in oxygen that is released by trees, then we breath out carbon dioxide giving the trees what they need for their survival. Brilliant eh! Now, since Atheists believe all those things came into being without an intelligent, guiding power – that there was no “mind” behind creation – imagine having your brain removed and then being asked to create a new one. Perhaps that’s why the majority of people in a “Newsweek” poll said “Yes” they do believe in God. So what about the three to five per cent who claim to be Atheists? Are they just smarter than the rest of us or are they missing some apparent evidence. An Atheist is defined as someone who does not believe in God. But since it is impossible to prove scientifically that something doesn’t exist, Atheists can’t know for sure that there is no God. Their view is based solely on the lack of evidence. However, believing there is no God doesn’t mean that one doesn’t exist. The Bible says (Acts 14: 17) “He never left them without evidence of Himself and His goodness. For instance, He sends you rain and good crops and gives you food and joyful hearts.” The evidence is all around us. God’s existence can be proved. And you can have a personal relationship with Him. Imagine a human skull evolving with all the right holes and sockets in it, in just the right places. Then, as one author writes, “By accident came along the brain, it then interconnected to two eyes, two ears, one nose, skin, blood, all nerves, mouth, teeth, tongue, salivary glands and taste-buds connected to the neck. And a body with heart, lungs, liver, kidneys in both male and female genders, with complex, complementary reproductive systems – and a similar system which takes place throughout the animal kingdom. Atheists believe something can bring its self in to being from nothing, and given enough time, complex systems can be constructed by chance through random, unguided developments. The Bible says in (Hebrews 3:4) “Every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.” Now if the first man to walk on the moon discovered a Coke can lying around up there, would it be sensible to think it evolved over millions of years? Or would he know the can was devised and constructed, and therefore someone must have been there and left it there earlier? But don’t the most intelligent people like great scientists believe God didn’t create the world? You ask? No! Albert Einstein, perhaps the world’s greatest scientist said “The deeper one penetrates into nature’s secrets, The greater becomes one’s respect for God.” And Sir Isaac Newton said, “The most beautiful system of the Sun, planets and comets, could only proceed from the council and dominion of an intelligent and powerful being.” Yes, there is a God. And one day you and I will stand before him. Are you ready for that event? If not, you can be, by putting your trust in Jesus Christ today. It is said “there are none so blind as those who WILL NOT see. Richard Dawkins, a well known Atheist, said,”It is absolutely safe to say that, if you meet somebody who claims not to believe in evolution, that person is ignorant, stupid or insane.” But the truth is, most great scientific minds from the past – Brilliant men who founded and developed key disciplines of science – were creationists. Eg (!) physics; Newton, Faraday, Maxwell, Kelvin. (2) Chemistry; Boyle, Dalton, Pascal and Ramsay. (3) Biology; Ray, Pasteur, Mendel, Linnaeus. (4) Geology; Seteno, Woodward, Agassiz, Brewster, (5) Astronomy; Kepler, Maunder, Galileo and Henschel. Were these men Ignorant, stupid or insane? Sir Isaac Newton discovered the composition of light, deduced the laws of motion, invented calculus, computed the speed of sound, and defined universal gravitation – while believing our universe “Could only proceed from the council and dominion of an intelligent and powerful being.” In a 2007 A Newsweek magazine, survey, 78 per cent of those polled attributed creation to God, while 13 per cent believed in naturalistic evolution. Don’t be intimidated by non-believers. Push back! The Bible says in (Romans 1:16-20). they know the truth about God, because He has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made. They can clearly see His invisible qualities. So they have no excuse for not knowing God. Yes, there is a God, and He wants you to have a personal relationship with Him, and give you all the blessings you will ever need to get through this life and take you to be with Him in Heaven for all eternity. Don’t be drawn away from the truth by nonsensical theories from. people who just want to take you away from believing in God. You and I know very well in your heart that there is a God who loves and cares for us, who sent His only beloved Son to die for your sins and mine, so that we can enter into a heavenly eternity of love, joy and everlasting peace with Him and all His followers. Look at the alternative in your Bible, Jesus spoke twice as much about Hell as He did about Heaven. Why? To warn us of the dangers and pitfalls Satan is setting-up to stop us from going to Heaven and taking advantage of what he forfeited by his rebellion against God. No! Don’t fall into the same trap and give the devil victory over your Soul. The best way to find out if something is true or not, is through experiencing it. I have done that several times, and am fully convinced without a shadow of a doubt that there is a God who created this Universe and everything in it, and that He has left us with the Scriptures as a testimony to His very real existence. The Father loves you, Jesus died for you, and the Holy Spirit will guide you through God’s Word to keep your Faith secure in the One True God and Creator of the Universe. Thank you for reading The Truth about God and His Creation. The Word says “If we draw near to God, He will draw near to us”. So make it a practise (no matter how tired you are, or whether you feel like it or not, or even if you’ve sinned or feel unworthy or angry with God. Just do this,) read at least one chapter of Scripture each day, I promise you, a year from now you will not be the same person because you have been faithful to the God of all faithfulness. May His Choicest blessings be Yours. Phaline. -------------------------
