Eternally without Excuse

Trying to wrap your mind around the vastness of creation and the entire universe is overwhelming! The reality of God is everywhere! When you look at the sky, the stars, the oceans, the rivers and lakes, and all created life, there is a voice that profoundly and majestically declares, “GOD IS.” When you see a painting, common sense tells you there is a painter; when you see a building, you know there is a builder; when you see the creation, you know there is a Creator! God wanted creation to declare his reality with such explicitness that every person would be without excuse.

Romans 1:18-20  The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world, God’s invisible qualities–his eternal power and divine nature–have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. 

Psalm 14:1a The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”

The entirety of God’s creation is talking and constantly revealing the reality of God’s love and grace.

Psalm 19:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day, they pour forth speech; night after night, they reveal knowledge. They have no speech; they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.

The glory of creation declares the reality of a loving God, and he is longing for everyone to know the depths of his love for them! God has given you and me the incredible privilege of being the ambassadors of his good news and grand plan to reconcile the world to himself.

Though the reality of God is evident everywhere, some will still reject his love for them and his eternal plan for their lives. Even though the whole creation continually speaks to them, some will resolutely reject the only one who truly loves them. The Bible says, “It is appointed unto men once to die and after that the judgment.” Heb 9:27

None of us know which day will be our last. A stark reality of life is that you may never see your neighbor or that coworker again! Today could be your last chance to let them know. Will you tell them? I know that you care about those around you! Don’t you think it’s time to up your game and begin to let more people know about God’s wonderful plan of love?

Since the creation is screaming that there is a God, this harsh reality must be understood – those who reject the incredible love of God expressed in Jesus Christ will be...
