The Magnificence of the Non-Coincidence
Is all of humanity's
existence simply one big coincidence?
Or is there someone
above, someone holy, someone infinite?
You demand “this is
utter nonsense due to a lack of evidence”,
But I insist that you
are only being blinded by your own ignorance.
If you simply gaze at
the wonders of creation you’ll see the significance
And then maybe you’ll
realize the most obvious proof is this; your existence.
Romans 1:19 states
“For what can be known about God is made plain to them,”
“Why?” You ask
defensively, “because God has shown it to them” hallelujah, praise Him.
“Well if this God is
so holy and obvious, then why is there no evidence of His magnificence?”
Look at the stars in
their vast number, the earth in its perfect placement, were they an accident?
You don’t seek an
answer, for your hardened heart is the hindrance to His infinite magnificence.
Ponder the universe,
so vast we cannot begin to fathom its size, does it hold any significance?
How about the fact
that this creator created it all Ex Nihilo, how’s that for magnificence?
“If this God can
speak the entire universe into existence, then why do I only see His absence?”
“Why can’t he stop
all the murder, thievery, and rape? Why does he just stand by, in silence?”
You want God to end evil? “YES!” you shout,
but have you even considered the consequence?
God is just,
immutable, perfect, righteous, omnipotent and always consistent.
So in order to end
evil, God would have to destroy it all; including humanity's existence.
“That makes sense,
but how could God love me? I never go to church or pray.”
God desires a
personal relationship with you in spite of what you’ve done, that’s His unconditional
love.
Your good works mean
nothing to Him because you cannot earn salvation. Jesus is the only way.
You see, God loved us
so much, He humbled himself to a man and descended from above
He lived the life we
could never live, and died for the world to remove sin’s consequence.
“So the world has
been saved because of the sacrifice Jesus made in that tremendous instance?”
Not quite. The whole
world CAN be saved, if they would take the free gift of Christ’s innocence.
If you give your life
to Christ, God no longer see’s your sin, you no longer face the consequence.
“Okay, but why did
this happen if God is omniscient? Was the fall of man an accident?”
Are you suggesting
that God called an audible? You think this plan of salvation is a coincidence?
To think that the
Creator did not know His creation is ridiculous, in fact it is utter nonsense!
That is the beauty of
it. We sinned against a perfect God, yet He still desires our existence!
He is always good, perfect,
loving, merciful, omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent; He's infinite!
We are always searching
to be satisfied, and we always want more. Do you see the significance?
We were created for
God: for His glory, to sing His praise, and to make known His existence.
We as humans are
infinitely empty without His grace, love, mercy, and forgiveness.
His glory is our
purpose, this is the magnificence of the non-coincidence.
