Why Limit God?

An atheist ridiculing Christianity once stated how anyone could believe that a God could be His own Son, create the planets by Himself, and take people from the Earth to the Heavens in the blink of an eye.

Imagine two hundred years ago if someone said that someday there will be boxes sold that will have moving pictures and sound coming from them, that there will be machines that fly hundreds of miles, and a hand held device that can let you talk another person far away. Or just try explaining the internet, and you would be shunned or become the village laughingstock, or worse. Minds two hundred years ago could not conceive of these innovations of today, so it is like trying to reason with an atheist.

The skeptic has elevated mankind and his intellect the highest form of belief on the planet. The Universe and its vastness with complex living organisms, thousands of galaxies and stars, the regeneration of life and the miracle of the human body, and the idea there is a Grand Designer is ridiculed. If Man cannot grasp or touch something in a cold, scientific method, then it it is to be dismissed as fantasy, or illusion of a world of myths and stories. They worship on the alter of the physical world and their own comprehension of it within the realm of their own intellect. No Higher power exists, and it seems a very lonely and cold way of having an outlook on life.

In John 3:1-21, Jesus talks with the Pharisee Nicodemus and the concept of being born again. Nicodemus thought Jesus meant literally born again, and asked Jesus how this was so. "If I have told you people about earthly things and you don’t believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?," was His reply. I think the same concept applies to Man in general as well. There is enough proof of a God around us. The oceans deep, mountaintops crowning the clouds, the emerging butterfly from a cocoon, a newly born baby, a bluebird in flight, the endless expanse of the Universe, the gracefulness of a gazelle, and the ingenuity of technology from man from the depths of his developed mind. "

I'm glad there is an all seeing Heavenly Father above guiding and loving us, rather than us floating in this galaxy alone by our own devices and shallow understanding.
