Think up, No Excuse

But I did not know. 

Many seem to think that some will go to Heaven, stand in front of God, and plead that they did not know He was real. Well? That is not going to Save them. The Word declares this in Romans 1 Starting at Verse 18

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse."

Stop there for a second. Read that part again. "his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made." Who? God. "His eternal power and divine nature," God. The Creator of all there is, was, or ever will be, God, "have been clearly perceived," Not maybe. Not could be. But rather "have been clearly perceived," When? "ever since the creation of the world," Not, this Past Tuesday. Sorry, you missed it. "ever since the creation of the world," How? "in the things that have been made." What? His Creation. So that what? "So they are without excuse."

One of my many problems with the Theory of Evolution, along with the Obvious, it is Scientifically and Mathematically IMPOSSIBLE to get something from nothing, they refuse to even suggest that those they are attempting to teach, Think Up.

So how do you reconcile the whole something from nothing? "I don't know. We do not know everything. However, there is no possibility that there is a God." Why? "Just Shut up. You ignorant, Hateful, Racist, Bigotted, Chauvinistic, Homophobe." I'm just having a conversation with you. You say you do not know where that first something came from, nor can you answer the fact that it is ALSO Scientifically impossible that all things, Trees, Flowers, Fish, People, Hot Blooded, Cold Blooded, ETC, all came from a single Cell that came from nothing. Yet? You completely denounce even the Possibility that the first Something was God, who in turn, Created all things. "Shut up. I'm done arguing with you. There is a Scientific Consensus that Evolution happened and that there is no God." Atheist storms off.

For the very reasons I stated, it is Scientifically and Mathematically IMPOSSIBLE to get something from nothing, Creation screams out that there is a Creator. Just like looking at a Work of Art, you know there was an Artist, looking at the World, you know there is a God. Back to Romans 1

"For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen."

Once you stop Thinking Up, thinking about God, you WILL fill your head with the things of the World and the things of the World are Enmity to God. The more and more you stop thinking of God, I'm talking to Children of God here as well, the more you stop thinking about God, the more the World WILL come in and separate you further and further from God till you get to a place where you start to call Good Sin and Sin Good.

God tells us in Isaiah 55:8-9

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."

Think UP! Forget what the World thinks. Paul warned us of this in Colossians 3:2

"Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth."

So why the Movement of No God? Why the Movement in the Religion Realm of No Devil? Why no Hell? Same reason for all. No Hell, No Devil, No God, No Sin. No reason for a Saviour. Live as you will. As a Society we still attempt, at least as of this second, to tell people not to Harm anyone, but we tell people to live as you will. Anything Goes. If it makes you happy, do it. However,

"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge." {Psalm 19:1-2}

God did all this. He Created it. Turn to Psalm 90:2-4

"Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. You return man to dust and say, “Return, O children of man!” For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night."

There comes the time when this Creation will End.

"Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation." {John 5:28-29}

We are not here by Accident. We are not a Happy Consequence. We are not Children of a delicate and fragile Mother Earth. No Asteroid, Tsunamis, Vulcano, Aliens, or Sorry, Zombies, I know some of you were hoping for the latter, are going to wipe out the Earth. Turn to Revelation 20:12-13

"And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works."

This is the first reason we need to Think Up. There IS a God. He IS in Charge. We ARE His Creation and we can be His Children. There is Free Will, but there is No Excuse.

Do you know Jesus as your Savior? Have you been adopted into the Family of God? If not, say this Prayer. Right now. Wherever you may be. Say it in your own words, and do not doubt in your heart. God will hear you. He will send the Spirit of Life to you. Let us Pray...

"Oh Heavenly Father, Lord God. I am a sinner. I know this. I know there is nothing I can do to change that. But I know you can. I accept Jesus's sacrifice for me. I repent my sins. Please send the Spirit of Adoption into my life. Help me to get to know the real you. Save me. Please. In the name of Jesus, Amen!"

That's it. It really is that simple. Now go tell someone what you have just done. "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." {Romans 10:9} You need to find a Church that God leads you to, and be Baptized the way Jesus said to be. You are now a Child of God. A new Creature. You "have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him." {Colossians 3:10}

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. {2 Corinthians 13}

Until next time, be Blessed, be a Blessing, and Jesus IS Lord
