Re:Verse passage – Psalm 14:1-7 (day seven)
The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” Psalm 14:1
Atheism masks itself as intellect when in reality it is ignorance. Only a fool can look at the world and believe that this is all a coincidence. On the contrary, the existence of the universe means there must be a Creator. The existence of design in the universe means there must be a Designer. The unique nature and character of humanity means there must be a God who is relational. The existence of morality means there must be a God who provides moral law. Yet, a “Big Bang” is the reason to explain all of these things, right?
What might be even more foolish than atheism is the person who will sit in a pew today and live tomorrow in the same way they did yesterday. Moralistic Therapeutic Deism plagues our congregations. Is church simply a place for us to attend to make us feel better and help us to be good? No one is good, not even one. Church attendance cannot cover up the actions of the heart if those actions continue to say, “There is no God.”
