is God real it’s a fair question God or
the concept of a God is talked about a
lot but we don’t see God and we don’t
hear him so can we really be sure that
there is one and you know sometimes we
can get really curious about God’s
existence especially when it comes to
thoughts about death like if there’s a
God and if there’s a heaven and a hell
where will we go and can we know that
for sure as a former Bible teacher many
of my students have asked me how do you
know God is real and I normally respond
with three thoughts thought number one
You dont need to see
you don’t need to see in order to
believe
now suppose we went to an art museum and
imagine us seeing a painting of a
beautiful landscape and you told me wow
that artist is good and I looked to you
and say ah well you can’t be too sure
there’s an artist I mean can you see the
artist give me direct evidence that
there was an artist and as you look to
find the artist’s name on the painting
you find that the artist is unknown to
which I’d say see you can’t see the
artist there’s no proof that they
actually existed therefore this painting
doesn’t have an artist and this
obviously is an illustration you see
from what I found people always believe
in what they don’t see yet many people
don’t like to use that logic when it
comes to the subject of God for example
if I look at a skyscraper I don’t need
to see the architect in order to believe
that there was one if I look at a
painting or a sculpture I don’t need to
see the artist and if I see a tray of
sushi I don’t need to see the chef
responsible for making it because sky
scrapers art pieces and dishes are all
complex and require an intelligent mind
in order to bring them to existence and
the facts that they are complex is
reason enough to believe that someone
was responsible for their creation even
if we physically cannot see the Creator
thought number two life is complex and
Life is complex
it needs to come from somewhere now
while buildings art and recipes are
complex our bodies are immensely more so
so I would argue that if we can assume
that skyscrapers and everything that we
talked about has a Creator we as people
must also have a Creator due to how
complicated our bodies are the human
body has a total of nine layered systems
that all must be working in order for an
individual to be healthy the
cardiovascular system contains the heart
and blood vessels working so it can get
your body that oxygen and nutrients it
needs the endocrine system produces
hormones that contribute to your overall
growth the digestive system breaks down
the food and liquids that we consume and
turns it into energy the respiratory
system helps us to breathe which is a
little important the excretory system
removes all the waste and other harmful
things in our body the lymphatic system
is part of your immune system that
prevents us from getting sick the
nervous system contains the brain and is
responsible for anything requiring
thought the muscular system contains all
the muscles that help us to move and the
skeletal system obviously has all the
bones that give us something to slap
these eight other systems on and to give
you an idea of how much information your
body contains pay attention to this
quote from the National Institute of
General Medical Sciences six that’s how
many feet long the DNA from one of your
cells would be if you uncoiled each
Strand and placed them end to end do
this for all your DNA and the resulting
strand would be billion miles long
the same as about round
trips to the Moon you see your DNA is
your information it’s everything that
makes you you and all of it stretched
out would be billion miles long so
when it comes to where people came from
I believe that people are far too
complex and must have had an intelligent
mind responsible for creating them
to further my point imagine if we were
walking in a forest and we see a laptop
lying on the ground and I looked to you
and say do you know how this laptop got
here well this Forest had all the
elements needed in order to create a
laptop so after billions of years full
of lightning storms and the changing
environment this laptop came into
existence and while this all sounds
silly take out the laptop and insert the
evolution of humans in there I mean is
it possible that humans with their nine
systems and billion miles worth of
information somehow could have evolved
after billions of years and might I add
that if that scenario sounds unlikely
with the laptop how can that make sense
with people who are significantly more
advanced I don’t know but I feel like
many people make fun of Christians who
believe in the possibility that God was
responsible for the creation of people
when in my opinion I feel like that
belief makes more sense given how
complex people are
Jesus is God
thought number three Jesus Is God and
there’s plenty of evidence for his
existence now for those of you who are
thinking why should I trust the Bible or
believe in Jesus well one reason why one
might trust the Bible is because
according to Dr Sean McDowell in
the New Testament of the Bible has
historical documents supporting it
in McDowell’s article titled what is the
most recent manuscript count for the New
Testament he quotes how do the New
Testament documents compare with other
ancient books a stack of existing
manuscripts from the average classical
writer would measure about four feet
high yet the New Testament manuscripts
would stack to more than one mile high
and what does this one mile high stack
of information contain details about a
man named Jesus his life his death his
resurrection his church and his way to
get to heaven look I’m not going to
cover all the reasons why you should
trust the Bible in this video that video
is actually being worked on but we will
provide the link in the description
below once it’s uploaded but for those
of you who are genuinely looking for the
answer to the question is God real I
would consider what the Bible says in
John chapter verses to and verse
. in the beginning was the word and
the Word was with God and the Word was
God he was in the beginning with God all
things were made through him and without
him nothing was made that was made and
the word became flesh and dwelt among us
and we beheld his glory the glory as of
the only begotten of the father full of
grace and truth and if you were to
continue reading the book of John you
would see that the word who was God that
became flesh or in other words a person
was Jesus and according to over twenty
thousand historical documents that are a
mile high Jesus existed and he lived so
you can hear this message you are not
here on accident you were more than the
nine systems that allow your body to
function because you
Soul a soul that God created and gave
you so how did you get here on Earth
according to the Bible there is only one
God and this one God who is in the form
of three persons which we call the
Trinity God the Father God the son and
God the holy spirit this God created
everything the universe with its stars
and planets the Earth with its lands and
seas and in it he made the animals and
the first man and woman and when he made
them he gave them the ability to choose
why because God wanted to have a sincere
and genuine relationship with people and
in order for love to be real love must
not be forced but have a choice so God
gave the first man Adam and the first
woman Eve a choice to either obey him or
disobey him and they chose to disobey
and according to the Bible actions that
violate God’s righteous commands are
called sin in Romans it says for
all have sinned and come short of the
glory of God and Romans says for
the penalty of sin is death
to put things simply these passages tell
us that everyone here on Earth is an
imperfect sinner that has violated God’s
commands to be good and holy and the
punishment for such actions is death so
here’s the problem the god of the Bible
is the God of Justice and he is so holy
pure and perfect that he must not allow
any wrong act to go unpunished to let
any sin be ignored what compromise is
justice so he must give Liars the
sexually immoral the murderers and the
selfish what they deserve and that’s
death and death in the Bible is more
than just the physical stopping of the
heart there’s two parts to death
Revelation chapter verse but
cowardly unbelieving abominable
murderers sexually immoral Sorcerers
idolaters and all liars shall have their
part in the lake which burns with fire
and brimstone which is the second death
this second death is eternal separation
from God in a place of Eternal Flames
called the Lake of Fire also known as
hell and this is what I deserve and what
people everywhere deserve because of
their sin but the idea of people being
sent to hell didn’t sit well with God so
he made a way for people to be saved
from the punishment of their sins God
the Father sent his son Jesus to pay the
price for people’s sins Jesus being God
the son came in the form of a man as
read in the Book of John and he was the
only person to have ever lived a life
without any sin he was completely
perfect and the day he died he was
beaten without Mercy whipped and
mutilated spat upon and humiliated
and he was nailed to a cross why did
this happen because sin makes God angry
and full of Wrath so all of the Wrath
that God has against every lie every
murder every sexual sin every selfish
Act of greed and darkness all of the
anger that God had against every evil
act committed by people was placed on
Jesus Jesus was treated as if he lived
our sinful life and he died on the cross
to take away the death and divine wrath
that we deserved why do I tell you all
of this because the biggest reason why
you’re here on Earth right now is so you
can make this decision will you believe
that Jesus died for you and will you
surrender your life to him because I’ll
tell you right now God is real you are
far too complex of a person for you to
have just popped into existence and it
is Through the Bible that we know that
we originated from God but sin has
disconnected us from him because filthy
sin cannot be in the presence of a holy
and perfect God and sin has no place in
heaven but God in his love for people
made a way back to him you see according
to the Bible there is only one thing
necessary for you to go to heaven and
have access to God and it’s this
have faith in the fact that Jesus died
for you Romans chapter verse
therefore having been justified by faith
we have peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ and the word Justified here
means declared righteous so here’s the
good news
even though you’re a sinner that God has
great anger and wrath towards
God still loves you so he sent his son
Jesus to die on the cross for your sins
so you don’t have to pay that punishment
yourself in hell all you need to do is
believe that Jesus died for you and to
live your life according to that
knowledge and when you do this when God
looks at you he will no longer see your
sin because it was paid for at the cross
no there won’t be any anger towards you
anymore because if you have faith in
Jesus instead God will look at you with
peace and see Jesus’s Perfection and
sinless life because Jesus traded his
life for yours but the story isn’t over
yet the Bible tells us that Jesus didn’t
stay dead he rose again is still alive
and is coming again very soon and being
the King of Kings he will come back for
his people and will set up his kingdom
where we will all dwell safely for all
eternity
so I need to say this you need to make a
decision you don’t know when your life
will end and you can either pay for the
penalty of your sins yourself in the
Lake of Fire or you can allow Jesus to
pay for them through his blood please
see God’s love for you see the Salvation
that you can have through faith in
Jesus’s death for your sins pray to God
tell him you believe that he died for
you and help me spread this message to
as many people as we can so that more
people can own this truth
Jesus loves you
