No Excuse!

By Ed Wittlif

    "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse" (Romans 1:20).
    Look at the physical universe, our world, and you cannot fail to see evidence of the Creator. The planet Earth was designed for man to live on. The earth is a finely tuned habitat for humanity. The fact that we are able to mess up the environment speaks to our planet being created for a purpose and not an accidental happening.
    The evidence for God isn't just limited to what we can see with our eyes. I am reading The Case For A Creator by Lee Strobel.  Strobel points out that our DNA speaks of an intelligent Creator. Scientists acknowledge that our DNA contains coding regions having the exact same properties as computer code or even language. We understand that computer code and language didn't just happen. Therefore, there is intelligent design behind creation.
    Even down to the lowest cellular level, everything points to a Creator. Our heavenly Father left His finger prints, as it were, over everything in creation.
    The Holy Spirit through Paul points out in Romans 1:20 that the evidence for a powerful creator is clearly visible. The person who says that there is no God is denying clear and plain truth. That person has no excuse, for God left evidence that He is.
    Rest assured that the evidence for God is overwhelming. Therefore, do not allow any theory or anyone talk you out of your belief in God or cause doubts. Jesus says, "Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life" (Revelation 2:10c)."
