 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”  Ouch, that seems a little strong.

 There is much in evidence to confirm our belief.  Romans 1:18ff  The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

 The truth is suppressed.  God has made it plain to the believing heart.  His invisible qualities are seen in what he has created.  He is abundantly knowable.  There is no excuse for not knowing Him, only condemnation.

 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

 28 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.  We know He exists. He is the great cause of all creation.

 Our experience tells us that things that show design must have a designer.  “The understanding cannot conceive a thing to have made itself; that is against all reason” Charnock

 All things are the product of the elements.  All of the universe runs in perfection.  The cycles of life harmoniously blend.  CO2/O2,H2O,Decomposition/New life, Photosynthesis  Psalms 139:14  I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

 “There is need of the same power and action to preserve a thing as there was at first to make it.”Charnock  Psalms 104:27  All creatures look to you to give them their food at the proper time.

 The Heart  The Mouth  The Brain  The Eye  The Ear  The Tongue

 “Not the least part of the body is made in vain. The hairs of the head have their use, as well as are an ornament. The whole symmetry of the body is a ravishing object. Every member hath a signature and mark of God and His wisdom.” Charnock

 Who but God could predict the future and bring it to pass?  “That power which foretells things beyond the reach of the wit of man, and orders all causes to bring about those predictions, must be an infinite power, the same that made the world, sustains it, and governs all things in it according to his pleasure, and to bring about his own ends; and this being is God”Charnock

 “Wisdom is the band of human societies, the glory of man. Folly is the disturber of families, cities, nations, the disgrace of human nature.”  The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
