THE FRUITS OF EVOLUTIONISM

You cannot love creation without loving the Creator. The wanton destruction of nature and man reveals the hostility of evolutionism and yet man continues to pursue materialism for dear life. If he can eradicate the unseen Creator God then he is no longer responsible for his deeds and can use the world for his own ends.

No wonder the Creed was repeated every Lord's Day.

GOD'S GREATEST NEED

 It is the nature of love to want to love rather than to be loved. There is unbounded love between the Person's of the Trinity. Even this was not enough for God but needed a whole creation of others, who like Himself, are made to love and receive love.

Throughout Scripture we see an overwhelming yearning of God for His people, His scream of agony in Eden when man, choosing to believe the father of lies, betrayed Him and became his enemy. Perhaps even then the Son, dedicated to redeem man before the foundation of the world, said 'Father forgive them. They know not what they do'.

God turned evil into good and purposed a destiny for man beyond his wildest dreams, so undoing the murderous purposes of Satan. This will ever be so for those He loved before time and destined to be made into the image of  His most dearly loved Son and to share in His inheritance, which is God Himself.

LIGHTS

I'd rather be a candle in the house of the Lord than a chandelier in the palace of pleasure seekers.
