ONE IN SEVEN… TAKE A BREAK FROM THE HUMAN DRAMA
Posted in Uncategorized by Baba - Oct 30, 2016
The theory of evolution did not begin with Charles Darwin. The Greek philosophers who chose not to believe that there is a Creator God tried to explain the origin of everything by time and chance.
That great Statesman, Thomas Jefferson, lived in the generation before Charles Darwin and had been influenced by the writings of some of the German and the English philosophical writers. Jefferson was at home in six languages, had three earned doctorates and was well versed in the sciences, yet he pointedly rejected the idea of evolution.
Jefferson was not a believing Christian, but he wrote in defense of the Creator. Here are some of his words: “I hold – without appeal to revelation – that when we take a view of the universe in its parts, general or particular, it is impossible for the human mind not to perceive and feel a conviction of design, consummate skill, and indefinite power in every atom of its composition…It is impossible…for the human mind not to believe that there is, in all this, design, cause, and effect, up to an ultimate cause, a Fabricator of all things.”
The universe itself communicates abundantly regarding the existence of, and even some of the attributes of, its Creator… God.
The Christian Gospel declares that now is the time for those who are guilty of disobeying God — that includes everyone– to seek forgiveness and the restoration of eternal life, also known as Salvation, or being Born Again.
” Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:” –Isaiah 55:6.
