A Talk

A talk
“For the word of God is living and active. 
Sharper than any double-edged sword, 
it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; 
it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.  
Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. 
Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him 
to whom we must give account.” 
Hebrews 4:12,13
C. S. Lewis said,
“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.” C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain.
Lewis is right, you can say there is no God, but that dose not change the fact there is a God and that he one day will judge everyone. Someone once wrote,
A Conversation

A man:
”you can’t be!”

God: 
“but I am”

A Man: 
“You don’t exist!”

God, 
“I do.”

A Man: 
“But I couldn’t see you.”

God: 
“I know I asked you to have faith. Through Hebrews I told you,
 “Now faith is being sure of what we hope
 for and certain of what we do not see.”  
Hebrews 11:1

A Man: 
“if only I could have seen you.”

God: 
“You could have seen all I did. The Psalmist told you 
“The heavens declare the glory of God; 
the  skies proclaim the work of his hands.”
Psalm 19:1. 
Didn’t you look?

A Man:
 “Of course I looked. 
I seen evolution!”

God,
 “So you seen an orderly universe and thought 
it just dropped perfectly into place
 randomly? 
You didn’t think I could do it be it that way or any other way 
I felt like doing it?”

A man: 
“But I didn’t believe you existed.”

God: 
“so you never had faith in me?”

A Man: 
“I didn’t.... 
I don’t...
 I must be delusional.”

God: 
“No I am really here and through the words of Hebrews I warned you saying, 
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, 
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists 
and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” 
Hebrews 11:6.

Man:
“So what will happen to me?”

God:
“The Apostle Paul wrote,
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith
and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 
 not by works, so that no one can boast.”
 Ephesians 2:8,9 
Did you accept my free gift of Grace?
Dear reader
Please think about it.
