"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1
I recently heard a scientist say that faith is believing in something for which you have no actual or scientific evidence. People believe that there is life in the solar system even though there is zero evidence that life as we know it could exist. Evolutionists believe based on their book by Charles Darwin.
We believe in a God we have never seen and in a book that was written thousands of years ago. The Christian life is a life of faith.
"For we walk by faith, not by sight." 2Corinthians 5:7
Evolutionists are praised for their faith but we are criticized for our faith. We have the evidence of a changed life. They have evidence of fossils that change nothing.
It is the hatred of certain people for God that causes them to be ridiculous in their conclusions.
"And this is the condemnation, that light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil." John 3:19
It is the moral choices that people make that make them not only hide from God, but hate Him. This makes God just in His assessment and actions toward evil people.
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness." Romans 1:18
This is the nature of sinful men and women. Without Christ we live as rebels and enemies of God. To the bitter end.
"But the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands..." Revelation 9:20
"Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions..." Romans 1:24,26
God loves us and will help us. But remember, the first word of the Gospel is repent.
