Biblical Answers: The Existence of God, Part 1

March 3, 2020

Does God exist? In the church, we think the answer is obviously yes. But when you engage with people outside the church, you find many people who wrestle with that question. We need to formulate an engaging, biblical response to that question that helps people who think there's not enough evidence. Ironically, Psalm 14 is a hymn to the aetheist.

Free Resource | Does the Bible Promote Tolerance or Intolerance?
One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek. So how could anyone think the Bible prevents a tolerant society? But for another group, the Bible is far from tolerant. There’s the conquest of Canaan. There’s Elijah killing Baal’s prophets by his own hand. And in the New Testament, Jesus talks often about hell. That’s not tolerant. What then can we say in answer to this question?

Paul says the number one reason people reject the reliability of the Bible and choose false teaching is not because there is some great, secret, intellectual problem with the Bible's teaching. As much as the controversial authors today want to persuade us that they're discovering something new, really they are just rehashing questions that have been asked and answered many times, and then putting them out in popular form.

Paul puts the message of justification so prominently here in his writing to the Romans because he viewed justification as a message to change the entire world. We can't just say a sinner's prayer and then ignore God afterwards.

Influenced by the fantastical myths of Greek culture, teachers were encouraging young Christians that if they really wanted to grow spiritually, they must have a mystical "buzz"--some kind of lightning-bolt experience. In contrast, this passage encourages us to place our confidence, rationally and spiritually and with good reason, in the truth of God's Word.

He is a God of love and mercy and will receive those who confess. We must be honest and real before Him. We need to learn how to live for Jesus even in areas of our lives, like our sexuality, which we don't often talk about.

We live in a world that is quite like Hosea's in many ways, including our obsession with sexuality. There are truths in this passage that apply directly to today's world. The prophet Hosea stands as a model for us, and this message is quite relevant to us.

There is an evangelistic power in living generously. When a Christian gives to the work of the Gospel, choosing to live below the standard of living that they could live otherwise, they are sending a message that they believe in something bigger than this world, and people notice and it has a huge impact.

God loves truly joyful Christians. God doesn't give you a duty that he doesn't also intend to be a delight. It is a duty to give, but God loves you to be cheerful, so He set up the system in such a way that when we give, it will be good for us. Giving opens up avenues of joy, and generosity is an opportunity to be a part of what God is doing.

In our world of deep suffering and tragedy, how can we believe that God is loving and good? Paul says that we must go to the cross, which is the answer to all of the problems of the entire world.

It's easy to be prejudiced without realizing you are. The Gospel is a Gospel for all nations. It crosses cultures. Our challenge is to take the Gospel to every tribe and nation. For every people group, Jesus is the answer.

One of the big things Christians need to learn from Daniel's understanding of this pagan official is love. He entered his world and appreciated his pressures. We call this loving our neighbor.
