There is No God!

"The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God" (Ps. 53: 1). Some say there is no God; all the wonders around you are accidental. No almighty hand made a thousand billion stars - they made themselves. The top few inches of our land just happened to have top soil, without which we should have no vegetables to eat, no grass for the animals whose meat is our food. The inexhaustible envelope of air, only 100 miles deep, and of exactly the right density to support human life is just another law of physics! Is it? Water expands when it freezes, while other substances contract. This makes ice lighter than water and keeps it floating on the surface. Otherwise lakes would be solid ice down to the bottom all year and no fish could survive. Who made this arrangement? Why does the earth spin at a given speed without ever slowing down, so that we have day and night? Who tilts it so that we get seasons? The sun stokes a fire just warm enough to sustain us on earth, but not hot enough to fry us or cold enough to kill us. Who keeps the fire constant? The human heart will beat for 70 or 90 years or ever more without faltering. How does it get sufficient rest between beats? A kidney will filter poison from the blood and leave the good things alone. How does it know one from the other? Who gives the human tongue flexibility to form words and a brain to understand them but denied it to all animals?

It’s all accidental? There is no God? That’s what some people say, but the Bible says, "In the beginning, God created…" (Gen. 1:1). "Yet the fool hath said in His heart, there is no God" (Ps. 53:1). Nothing is as impenetrable as a prejudice that closes its eyes to evidence.
