Sermon in a sentence:  "God did this so (we) would seek Him and perhaps reach out for Him, though He is never far from any of us."

                                                                                   The Apostle Paul in Acts 17:27 

 

                                          

Three biblical arguments for the existence of God—

#1  His fingerprints are on everything (including us). 

The cosmological and teleological arguments: the order and purpose of the universe.

Psalm 19:1-4a

The axiological argument: the universal impulse in human hearts toward some kind of morality and divine worship.

Romans 2:14-15

 

#2  He has spoken.

  • Universally and generally—Romans 1:18-20

  • Periodically and directly—Hebrews 1:1

  • Specifically, objectively and finally—2 Peter 1:16-21

       

#3  He has come to the earth and walked among us.

Hebrews 1:2
