Faith… Believing… Based on fact or will?
Romans 1:20 tells us “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—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.”
Misguided individuals often consider themselves to be too intelligent to believe in a God they can’t see, touch, hear, feel, taste. They may not be able to prove God exists through their five senses, but neither can they prove that he doesn’t exist – unless they have been everywhere in creation to prove he isn’t there they have no basis for their evidence.
Disbelief in God is not an intellectual decision, it is an act of the will. When we live in this awesome universe that is so beautiful, intricate, and diverse… immense beyond our wildest imaginations… to say it just happened requires more faith in nothingness than the intelligent conclusion that it was created by a God even more awesome than this universe we live in.
The first sin committed by Adam and Eve, was a rebellion against God’s one and only commandment at that time. When we choose to go our own way instead of believing in God, we are following in the footsteps of Adam and Eve. Disbelief is an act of the will.
