Are all the wonders that we see all about us in nature accidental? Who made the delicate flowers, and how do they grow from tiny seeds? Was there no forethought in all of the rich supplies stored in the earth for man’s use—coal, oil, and countless valuable minerals? The fertile soil that covers so much of the earth, without which we could grow no food for man and beast – whose foresight provided it?
What keeps the sun just hot enough to sustain life on earth, but not too hot or too cold? And who planned the land surface and the ocean just so that the warm currents of water and wind would circulate about the continents like a great air conditioner?
Whose wisdom so ordered that water expands when frozen, while other elements contract? This make ice lighter than water and keeps it floating on the surface, so that lakes and rivers are not frozen down to the bottom and the fish and other water life survive until the ice melts. Who made this wise arrangement?
Yet with all of the abundant evidence in creation of a Creator God, man cannot
know God until by faith he comes to know God’s Son, the Saviour, Jesus Christ the Lord We cannot know God by studying nature alone.
Jesus Christ came to earth to reveal God to us. He was God living among us, because Jesus is God, and “God is love.” The same wisdom and love that has provided so abundntly for the bodily needs of mankind has also provided a Saviour for whoever will believe His love and accept the gift of eternal life that He alone can give.
It was God’s provision for sinners that Jesus became a man and died on the cross as the Sin-bearer for anyone who will accept Him as their Saviour and Lord. Because He was God, death could not hold Him and He arose from the grave and, having finished redemption’s work, has gone back to heaven – God’s dwelling.
This Creator-Saviour-God has promised to return and receive to Himself all who confess Him now as Lord. Do you know Him?
