Is it possible for our puny human brain to actually be in touch with the Creator of all things? Arguably its a question philosophers and thoughtful people have struggled with since the beginning of written history.
For instance speaking of human history, year after year archeological discoveries confirm entire ancient civilizations now being uncovered in South America were ‘primarily’ based on worship of an all powerful god in one form or another.
In truth its simply no exaggeration to say there is an innate desire in all humanity to communicate with a supreme Creator! And with limited knowledge, many societies have conferred this desire on objects of wood or stone, in the vain hope they would be heard and benefit therefrom. Is so-called ‘modern man’ really so different? Or is technology filling that very same role today? Its a fair question considering how much focus of attention is given to it in all its material forms, from smart phones to orbiting satellites.
Of course its obvious to thinking people a far, far, superior entity does exist, which some refer to an identifiable ‘first cause’ of all life on earth. Yet ever more true science clearly points to a Creator of in all its genetic forms. Generations of observant mankind can see abundant visible evidence of this.*
Indeed this belief is also backed up by inspired ‘prophetic scriptures’ that provide positive reinforcement of that evidence, in spades! For just one example about 300 specific Bible prophecies describing the life of Jesus hundreds of years earlier were completely fulfilled down to the letter!
Can it therefore be said there is solid evidence to base real hope and belief on other than lifeless wood or stone; effigies; icons; paintings; and, yes, technology, but rather on an invisible all-wise and loving spiritual God who cares for us!
Albert Einstein epithet; “Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.” [Science, Philosophy and Religion]
In fact scientific confirmation is being added every day, consider this….and keep in mind this was written thousands of years before DNA confirmed it;
“Your eyes even saw me as an embryo; All its parts were in your book Regarding the days when they were formed, Before of them existed.“ (Psalm 139:16 NWT Bible) Hebrew a scripture written by King David.
Another example; “He (God) stretches out the northern sky over empty space, Suspending the earth upon nothing” (Job26:7 NWT Bible) Again, recorded scripture written thousands of years before space travel confirmed this fact, during a time when most of mankind believed the earth stood on on the back of a turtle or an elephant or had some other ignorant idea!
These are just a couple of examples of the accuracy and authenticity of inspired holy Bible. As if simple observation of all life and newly understood ecological systems on planet earth were not enough in and of themselves!
Furthermore, he has promised to restore this sadly damaged planet to its optimal condition, including all mankind….
“….he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” (Revelation21:3-5)
“He is the Maker of the earth by his power, The One who established the productive land by his wisdom And who stretched out the heavens by his understanding.” (Jeremiah51:15)
