A Passing Thought
Which is easiest to believe?
The evolutionist humanist would have us believe the earth is eternal and everything else derives its existence from a gradual change without a first cause. That would seem to me to be the greatest illusion or feat of prestidigitation ever preformed intra or extra to the universe and no one or nothing performed it. Like Topsy, “It just grew.”
Even the evolutionist had a difficult time believing that faery tale and was forced to envision an explanation that from none existent gasses, as well as a nonexistence spark, an explosion created the universe. Out of an explosion came life? Order out of chaos, that is an incredible, extraordinary feat indeed!
Only recently in history has science come to quantify what the Bible has had within its pages for thousands of years. The universe had a beginning. Before that beginning there was nothing. In fact, the Bible tells us that there was a state before time. Physics is just now showing that time itself had a beginning.
It’s curious that a book this old can tell us things that mankind has taken so long to figure out independently. This could only come from the mind of vain man.
God knows better; He knows all things.
It most surely requires a great deal more faith to be an evolutionist than a Christian.
Before “the beginning” there was only God who had no beginning and will have no end. Everything else in the universe has or will have both. In a word, that is expressed in the English language as eternal.
God from Himself, who is light and life, created all things out of the deep darkness of nothingness. The first in the sequence of events of creation is stated in scripture:
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep .” Genesis 1:1,2
“The Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day (Genesis 1:3-5).
It seems to me, personally, only a short stretch of the imagination to see that an existence that has the power and desire to create was able to complete that feat in twenty-four hours and still have time to do probably a quintillion things more, in his spare time.
