The
Devotional
Comment: Everything
known to man has a beginning, now why is that so hard for people to understand
when it comes to Creation. Men and women with credentials have pushed the
forming of the earth to billions of years ago. According to Jack Hills of
Western Australia the earth is at “least”
4.404 billion years old, give or take .005 billion years. For me with a simple
mind I think of how hard it is to count the sand grains on just one East Coast
seashore, so why then does a man waste his life seeking to understand that
which is impossible to “do!” There
is only one answer; mankind of this sort simply “hate” God and they hate to take God at HIS Word. Thus we can say
that God has a wrathful revelation for this sort of human thinking – find yourself
a Bible and read Romans 1:18-32 as we will develop this more in the days ahead.
Challenge:
John 1:1-5 – In the beginning was the Word, and
the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through
him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In
him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the
darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. What beginning is this one
might ask John who is the disciple and apostle of Jesus Christ?
Later in the life of this same apostle, he penned these
words of 1 John 1:1-4 – That which was from the beginning, which we have heard,
which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have
touched--this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we
have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which
was with the Father and has appeared to us. We proclaim to you what we have
seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our
fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. We write this to
make our joy complete.
Yet again when he was commanded by the LORD Jesus, John was to
confirm the message of Creation with this statement in the book of Revelation. “I
am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the End.” Says the LORD GOD. “Who
IS and who WAS and who IS TO COME, the Almighty.”
Men and women who reject Creation are men and women who
reject GOD the Almighty CREATOR, these people cannot understand ten simple
words. “IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED THE
HEAVENS AND THE EARTH” Genesis 1:1. Now some might say that it is
commendable that they do not understand and have sought the ways and means
discredit the Creator. But honestly it is condemnable since the message of evolution
leads to meaningless of life as the professors of this sort of wisdom promotes
foolishness.
What is foolishness? Lust in the heart, dishonoring the
human body, changing the truth of God into a lie, the worship of the creature
rather than the worship of the Creator. Think on what foolishness you might be
involved in by agreeing with evolution and tell me, do you not know that you
are playing the FOOL? Oh yes, you do know. The earth is the LORD’s and those
who are in it, all peoples and all living things belong to God and one day soon
that at the name of JESUS who IS the Creator will be heard these words.
Philippians 2:9-11 – Therefore God exalted him to the
highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name
of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and
every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
There are couple of reasons why this will happen and one of
them is that the earth was created by Jesus ten to fourteen thousand years ago,
this is not the end of a story. It is the truth and it is believable by FAITH,
FAITH in God, not man.
