So many look for evidence of God and seem not to find it. I have heard, “I need to see a miracle”, “I need to see suffering in the world end”, and other comments. These are all nothing but lame excuses to not believe in God.
Evidence for God:
- How about the most complicated technical original creation in the world, humans.
- How about birds that can fly thousands of miles home, having never been there before.
- How about animals that naturally know what to do in a given situation by “instinct”.
- How about the universe itself; scientists say it should not even exist.
- How about the earth, do you REALLY believe this extremely complex ecosystem got here all by itself?
- How about your own conscience, where do you suppose that came from?

I’m wondering Greg if you might do a blog series expanding on each one of your points. I feel like it could really bless a lot of people. It’ll help Christians with defending the faith and maybe others who are considering Christianity might be willing to re-examine the evidence.
I’m planning to do a series on this myself also later on in the year.

Its definitely a good thought Peter! I’ll have to give that some consideration.

Romans 1:19-23 makes all those excuses no more than excuses.
God has already put evidence of Himself “within” them and has further given evidence in His creation.
I think J C Ryle had a point when he wrote: Of all the doctrines of the Bible, none is so offensive to human nature as the sovereignty of God”
It isn’t so much a case of man not believing in God, as it is of man not WANTING to believe in God, for the very instant he acknowledges there IS a God, he becomes subject to that God.

Very good answer. Been there done that, I did not WANT to acknowledge God as I was angry about my parents divorce…but that was just an excuse.
Thankfully our Lord is merciful and accepts the prodigal…in this case me!
