Fair
question. Part of the saving grace of
Jesus Christ is that it is based on our faith in Him. That is easier for some than others. As I've often said, "faith is like a
muscle, the more you exercise it, the stronger it gets."
As I said
above, faith comes easier to some people than others. There are a lot of people who seem to be from
Missouri, you know, "The Show Me State". They want to actually see God before they will believe.
Now for
those people, is God going to walk up and whack them with a 2x4 and ask
"Do you see me now?" Probably
not although it has been known to happen occasionally. So what is a person to do? Is there a way for them to at least get a
glimpse of God? I wonder if Scripture
has something to say about that?
Duh! Of course it does!
Romans 1:20-21(NKJV)
20For since the creation of the
world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that
are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,
21because, although they knew God, they did
not glorify Him as God, nor were
thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were
darkened.
"For since the creation of the
world His invisible attributes are clearly seen," Scripture clearly tells us that there is a
way to clearly see God.
"understood by the things that
are made," So how are we
supposed to be able to see God? By
observing with our own eyes all that God has made.
In my
opinion, there is no better time than spring time to see the full impact of
this verse. As we watch the world emerge
from it's winter hibernation and start to bloom we can see the miracle of God's
creation and thus as Scripture tells us we can clearly see "His invisible
attributes".
"so that they are without
excuse," And why is it this way?
So that they are without excuse.
So that when judgment day comes, God provided visible proof for those
who need it so that they wouldn't even have that excuse for not believing.
As I've
been writing about the last few days. We
have to chose sides. God loves us and
wants us on his side. There are so many
blessings available to those who choose to live their lives according to God's
will. However we are still the ones that
have to choose. How do we choose? By simply asking Jesus Christ to be the Lord
of our lives. Have you made your choice yet?
