Faith Builders Romans 1:16-23

Atheism Hard to believe there are any? Not accustomed to bring around them? Do not often discuss the Bible How can one be an atheist? Creation is enough for us Many “doubt their beliefs and believe their doubts

Faith Builder #1: Nature All anyone needs –“Heavens declare …glory of God” (Psalm 19:1) –God sits on the “circle of the earth” (Isaiah 40:22) –Created by Jesus (John 1:3; Colossians 1:14-17)

Faith Builder #1: Nature Convincing facts –Something cannot come from nothing (Psalm 102:25-27) –Robinson Crusoe saw a footprint and knew someone was there

Faith Builder #1: Nature Fact: The universe exists –Illusion? Doesn’t really exist? –Spontaneously arose from nothing? Impossible according to scientists –Always existed? Evidence says otherwise –Only believable possibility: Created (Genesis 1:1)

Faith Builder #2: God’s Message Tells of God’s love and goodness –Wants all to be saved (1 Timothy 2:4; 2 Peter 3:9) –Source of every good thing (James 1:17) –Problem is a lack of study of the evidence

Faith Builder #2: God’s Message Tells of Jesus’ love and sacrifice –Look to Scriptures for life (John 5:39; 8:31, 32; 20:30, 31) –Confirmed by miracles (Mark 16:20; Hebrews 2:3, 4) –Made believers of some who tried to prove it wrong (Hebrews 4:12)

Faith Builder #2: God’s Message Allow it to work –Some refuse to look at the evidence –Fulfilled prophecy such as Cyrus (Isaiah 44:28) –Not to live in doubt

Faith Builder #3: Good Example Love and unity of Christians –Sign of those who believe (John 13:34, 35; 17:20, 21; 1 John 2:5; 4:20) –What about us? –Do we have patience and love? –Are we hurtful, impatient, and boastful? –Some characterized by wrong (James 3:16)

Faith Builder #3: Good Example Obey after observing other Christians –Should happen often (Matthew 5:16; Philippians 1:27; 2:12-16) –Judged by the weakest in many cases –Don’t quit going to doctors due to a bad one –Judge everyone harshly because of one hypocrite

Faith Builder #3: Good Example Orderliness of our assemblies –May not happen often –Know that chaos isn’t right –Are to worship orderly (1 Corinthians 14:23-25, 33, 40) –In spirit and truth (John 4:24)

Conclusion Are we helping others obey? Must not become an obstacle
