What would you think
What would you think if it were possible to place a wager. A wager that costs you absolutely nothing. A wager that if you lose costs you nothing. A wager however that if you win makes you rich beyond measure?
Such a does wager exists. Blaise Pascal speaking about God said,
“Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists.” Blaise Pascal.
The Bible because it was written to believers, does not debate the existence of God. It simply makes the statement,
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” Genesis 1:1.
Believing in God however is an act of faith. The writer of Hebrews tells us,
Faith in anything however is perhaps the most difficult thing to have. You must weigh the evidence and come to the conclusion that whatever you have faith in actually exists.
The Bible however does not ask believers to have blind faith the Psalmist tells us,
The fact is the perfection of the universe from the biggest galaxy to the smallest subatomic particle to my mind points to a creator God.
The decision to believe in God is however up to you the reader.
Please think about it.

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for
and
certain of what we do not see.”
Hebrews 11:1
“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

“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 display knowledge.
There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard.”
Psalm 19:1-3.
Science tell us that the world we live in is in the exact right spot in space and within the solar system to produce life as we know it. Whether that came about in six twenty-four hour days or billions of years is irrelevant.The fact is the perfection of the universe from the biggest galaxy to the smallest subatomic particle to my mind points to a creator God.
The decision to believe in God is however up to you the reader.
