Judgement
"In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth."
Genesis 1:1
Abba Hillel Silver wrote,
"Faith in God is the strongest bulwark of a free society. Human freedom began when men became conscious that over and above society and nature there is a God who created them...who fashioned them in His likeness, and that they are, therefore, possessed of intrinsic and independent significance and are endowed, as individuals, with original and irrevocable rights and authority." Abba Hillel Silver.
The Bible does not try to prove the existence of God. It was written to believers in God and to believers no explanation is necessary.
Belief in God however is as Abba Hillel Silver put it “the strongest bulwark of a free society...”
When men forget or do not believe in God, society can quickly degenerate into a very bad place to be. We just have to look at Nazi Germany during world war two. Millions of people murdered in death camps.
And it doesn’t stop there. Today around the world there are governments and groups who refuse to accept the existence of God. Thus they do as they wish. Believing that they have no one to answer to.
The writer of Ecclesiastes however issues a warning to all people,
"Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.
For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." Ecclesiastes12:13,14.
The question is do you believe this.
Please think about it.
