Through faith we understand that the
worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not
made of things which do appear. Hebrews 11:3
The human mind
requires an answer to the question concerning the origin and nature of all
things. The world as we find it must be accounted for in some way. Philosophers
and scientists have sought to account for it, the one by speculation, the other
by observation, but they have not found the final Truth. Here TRUTH should be
spelled indeed with a capital T, for it is nothing less than the Son of God,
the Second Person of the blessed Godhead!
Those who believe the
Christian revelation know that the universe is a creation. It is not eternal,
since it had a beginning, and it is not the result of a succession of happy
coincidences whereby an all but infinite number of matching parts accidentally
found each other, fell into place and began to hum!
So to believe would
require a degree of credulity few persons possess.
Those who have faith
are not thrown back upon speculation for the secret of the universe. Faith is
an organ of knowledge, and “through faith we understand that the worlds were
framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of
things which do appear.”
All things came out of
the Word, which in the New Testament means the thought and will of God in
active expression and is identified with our Lord Jesus Christ!
