“For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.”
Romans 1:20
Many of the worlds population today believe in other gods or they claim to be atheists, agnostics etc. However, the creative work of the Triune God of the Bible can be clearly seen throughout creation. When you look at a painting or a building you instinctively know there was an artist and a builder that created them. In the same way the beauty of the heavens and earth, the animals, fish, birds etc., and the complexity of the human body screams CREATOR. In Psalm 19:1 it says “The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands”. God’s Divine power was called forth at the creation. He showed His omnipotence by that one great act of eternal demonstration; that He was the One and only Almighty God. The creation delivers a clear, unmistakable message about God’s person. God holds all people responsible for their refusal to acknowledge what He has shown them of Himself in His creation. Even those who have never had an opportunity to hear the Gospel message have received a clear witness about the existence and character of God, and have suppressed it. When they suppress God’s revelation of Himself they are without excuse. If a person will respond to the revelation that he has been given with a sincere heart, God will provide some means for that person to hear the Gospel, Acts 8:26-39.
