Food for Thought

Food for thought
For the last little while now most of what I have written has been aimed at Christians, Christian living, belief and lifestyle. I however want to take this post to look at belief, and faith in God. Listed are several quotes from both the Bible and sources outside the Bible. I put them here for you to think about.
The Psalmist states,
The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” 
Psalm 14:1
Voltaire said
“I cannot imagine how the clockwork of the universe
 can exist without a clockmaker.” 
Voltaire
C. S. Lewis said,
“We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade,
 the presence of God.” 
C.S. Lewis.

Abraham Lincoln said,
"I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, 
but I cannot conceive how he could look up into the heavens 
and say there is no God."
Abraham Lincoln
     The Psalmist declares,
“The heavens declare the glory of God; 
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” 
Psalm 19:1.

Billy Graham the American Evangelist said,
I can't prove it scientifically, that there's a God, 
but I believe.
Billy Graham
The apostle Paul wrote,
“For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, 
but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” 
1 Corinthians 1:18
A person has two choices in life. Either you believe in God or you do not. The choice is yours.
Blaise Pascal wrote,
Belief is a wise wager. 
Granted that faith cannot be proved, 
what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false?
 If you gain, you gain all; 
if you lose, you lose nothing. 
Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists. 
Blaise Pascal
Please think about it.
