Gentle Reader,
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. … All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. … the world was made through Him. – Genesis 1:1, John 1:3, 10 (NKJV)
Yesterday we established the fact that Jesus is God. It necessarily follows to establish that Jesus, one hundred percent God, member of the eternal Triune, created everything, from the stars to the sea, the sand to the mountains, the Milky Way to the mustard seed. He designed DNA, set the trees to change with the seasons, defined the seasons themselves. He formed the characteristics that distinguish a dog from a cat from a water buffalo. He made curly hair and straight hair, dark hair and blonde hair and all shades in between. He thought of freckles and taste buds and laughter and placed our tear ducts just so. He positioned the Earth at the precise point necessary for the flourishing of life.
There is nothing – nothing – in creation that does not bear His fingerprints. Paul was dead on when he wrote:
“…since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made.” – Romans 1:20a (NKJV)
People wonder why I believe in God. I wonder how they cannot with the evidence all around – sunsets and roses and fingers and glaciers and eyeballs and duck feet.
