God's Answers To Human Questions

Common Sense Commentary: "Then there arose a question ...." John 3:25.

God is not offended at us when we have doubts and questions.  Ask the questions, but do not doubt His answers.

I..... How did all this intricate, miraculous life, on this finite planet, in this vast and infinite universe get here, on its own?  Answer: It didn't; it was Created! "...God created the  heaven and the earth." Genesis 1:1.

II.... Who is this Creator God?  Answer: The LORD alone! "Thou, even thou, art LORD (YHVH-Yehovah) alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their hosts; the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all there is therein, and thou preservest them all..." Ne.9:6.

III... When did He Create it?  Answer:   "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."Gen.1:1.---- "And, thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands." Heb.1:10. 

IV... How did He create it? Answer: He spoke it into existence by the power/energy of His WORD!  Einstein put the tip of his finger on "How God did it" with his theory of e=mc2 ... energy equals mass and therefore mass equals energy (think a burning branch releasing light and heat with which God created it). God spoke the Word, ""And God said, let there be...." throughout Genesis 1, and God's "energy" or power went out upon His Word, and created as He commanded  it.  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.... All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.... And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten (Son) of the Father).... Jn.1:1,3,14. The Word here is capitalized meaning it is a proper name.  The 14th verse reveals the "Word" to be Jesus Christ, "the only begotten Son of God". Jn.3:16.
Also, in Heb.11:3, "Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the WORD of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."  They were made out of nothing visible but by the energy/power of God's Word.  e=mc2.

V..... Why did God create us?  Answer: For His own will, purpose, and pleasure. Rev.4:11 "...O Lord... thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are, and were created."

VI.... Where is God now?  He is Omnipresent ... everywhere. "...For the LORD your God, he is God in heaven above and in earth beneath." Josh.2:11.  The Psalmist said, "If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there." Psm.139:8.

VII... Will Jesus Christ ever come again? Answer: "I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." Jn.14:2-3.

VIII.. What must I do to be saved? Answer: The Philippian Jailer asked Paul and Silas that very question in Acts 16:30 ..."Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved...."

IX..... Can I Know that I have eternal life? Answer: "These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God ; that ye may KNOW that ye HAVE eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." 1Jn.5:13.

X...... Is there any other way to be saved? Answer: "Neither is there salvation in ANY other: for there is none other name under heaven, given among men, whereby we must be saved." Acts 4:12.

Most of the world is looking to other ways, other names of other gods to bless and save them.
There are many such false gods worshiped by millions of lost souls. But those little gods .... the vain pride and lust for beauty, sex, wealth, power, fame, food , drugs, stuff, and a little god they can see and touch, cannot forgive or cleanse or save themselves and surely not you or me.

Pass it on. RB
