If God is not who He says He is, the Bible is a lie and man remains a wasted being with a random nature that can’t be governed or govern. You cannot separate God from the necessity of Him being Lord over all. Our desperately wicked hearts need a guiding force that govern them, thus creating the scenario of creating the need for God. Anything that governs is its governor, lord, god, etc.
If God is not who He says He is then life is meaningless, not to mention it is nonexistant. Satan through secular scientists is trying to push an agenda of a no God society in which is claimed that life is a result of blending unorganized matter in a random fashion. True science has proven this wrong by showing us there has to be a guiding force (God). Romans chapter 1 says in my own quotation “Though the evidence was there, they chose to ignore it resulting in moral degradation, because they no longer wanted God to be their guiding force.” Mankind for some reason has a real infatuation with being their own god and tries to overthrow God’s place in the universe in any way they can.
There are some problems right on its face with the push toward the mental framework which tries to undermine the existence of God. The fingerprint of God is indicated over and again through the many avenues of the world’s people and its creatures, and plant life.
When God speaks, His voice is meant to be heard. We have this fallen nature that doesn’t like to be told what to do. We try to do things our way instead of God’s decreed way. Our insatiable desire to be our own governor does nothing but dethrones God from the seat of authority in our lives, and lifts our capabilities to reason which comes from God in the first place, to the status of god. This is a direct result of our own pride through which no man has a place with God.
Our pride when left to run rampant in our lives will destroy our spiritual relationships, and our physical relationships. Satan’s main goal is to destroy us and will often destroy our relationships to get a greater hold on our souls. We will either find a god to fill our souls or we will set ourselves up as our own god.
The idea of being your own god may sound pleasing to begin with, but in reality, there really are just two gods; The God of Heaven and earth or the god of this world (Satan), and any choice we make is for one or the other. There is no neutral ground. When it comes to serving yourself, it is the same as setting yourself up as god and translates to selfishness. Selfishness is always a result of pride, because you are thinking only of yourself and not thinking of serving God. Pride is what Satan felt in his heart when he tried to elevate himself to the status of God, but it was selfishness that was the evidence of that pride.
There are just two tables spread for us to sit at and fellowship around, the Table of God or the table of demons, and we cannot sit at both. We will either partake in the spread of God or the spread of demons. Though we would like to be islands to ourselves, especially spiritually, we are not; and the truth is that everything we face is from one kingdom or the other.
The evident truth is that the world is in really bad condition; where life holds little or no value, morality is defunct, social skills are disappearing, and there is a great infatuation for a world of fantasy. God has offered Himself as our Savior, and He is willing to save us from destroying ourselves from this flow of poisonous behavior. God has deemed that life was worth creating, social interaction and morality is a necessity, and that fantasy is a lie. We really need God as our Saviour.
Our character is tainted, marred which causes us to feel we have the edge; and that is selfishness which is driven by pride. We will never be able to see God for who He is and hold to “Our Significance” unless we are willingly ignoring the evidence. We need to find our significance in God because ours is as filthy rags.
Without God there would be no life, no faith, no love, no joy, and no hope. There are many different gods/demons in the world that are being worshipped because man knows in his heart that life is bigger than he is. The devil has seized upon that thought and has magnified on man’s desire to worship, creating a front that can be seen for man to worship. Without God, love is turned to a selfish lust/covetous relationship, and joy is turned to heaviness of heart with a fascade of happiness and hope is turned to worry. Many people have allowed their circumstances to dictate their lives instead of looking to God for the answers. This results in a culture of death and often they end up killing themselves because they are tired of their life and the fascade they are under. Mankind is on a downward spiral that is getting tighter and tighter. The Savior is there waiting!
The desire for God is so indelibly marked into each one of our souls, that even in trying to discount the fact that He exists, we create a god of our own. People who refuse to recognize God will come up with gods that if you really stop to think about them are weird. The Romans developed a god that was a god of tapeworms, thinking that if they worshipped it, that god would be happy and not send his minions to harass them. The unfortunate thing is that they were worshipping Satan and his demons. Longer ago people were more spiritually aware and recognized the spiritual world in things like trees, rivers, animals, and stars. What they failed to realized is that in the creation of the world, God placed a part of Himself into the existence of these things to give them life and energy. Instead of recognizing the Creator, they focused on the creation.
The meaningless nature of life without God discredits any advances in understanding science, mathematics, and that man’s attempts to alleviate pain and suffering is a waste of time and effort.
The Bible says that man is without excuse for rejecting knowledge of God, because the evidence is all around us. Evolution or Environmental Pantheism has taken the God ordained elevated position as overseers and rulers over creation from man and in turn given lordship to the elements to rule mankind.
