We Are Without Excuse!

Reading:  Romans 1, 2
My Verse:  "For God's [holy] wrath and indignation are revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who in their wickedness repress and hinder the truth and make it inoperative.   For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their consciousness, because God [Himself] has shown it to them."  (1:18, 19)

Paul makes some strong points here re evolution vs. creation.  He speaks of our "inner consciousness" as something that dwells in all of us.  It is interesting how there is a tendency for people to become concerned about spiritual matters when they face death.  There is a God consciousness in all of us - though many try to deny it.  This is what Paul speaks to here.  He points out the dreadful results when man "who in their wickedness repress and hinder the truth and make it inoperative."

"And so since they did not see fit to acknowledge God or approve of Him or consider him worth the knowing, God gave them over to a base and condemned mind to do things not proper or decent but loathsome." (1:28)

Evolutionists are constantly forced to restate their "scientific conclusions' concerning earth origins.  I am so thankful, Lord, for creation scientists who more and more are able to show that creation does have scientific evidence.  The Institute of Creation Research at www.icr.org is one such group of creation scientists that refute much of evolutionary theory.

For myself, I find that the more I learn about nature the more I am in awe of You, Our Creator.  And I find it more incredible that learned intelligent men such as these evolution scientists could actually believe we all came about through evolutionary processes - it just doesn't compute!

"For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible - clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made.  (His handiworks.)  So [men] are without excuse."  (1:20)

David beautifully proclaims this truth in song! 
     "The Heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows and proclaims His handiwork.
     Day after day pours forth speech, and night after night shows forth knowledge.
     There is no speech nor spoken word [from the stars]; their voice is not heard.
     Yet their voice [in evidence] goes out through all the earth, their sayings to the end of the world, Of the heavens has God made a tent for the sun."  (Psalms 19: 1-4

We are not meant to be without You.  One need only compare cultures or individuals that worship You and those that do not!

Ditat  Deus - God Enriches!
