In the beginning...(you fill in the blank). The beginning of time and our existence are things many have pondered for centuries. Generally, there are 2 concepts that are believed to explain this. One is evolution. Evolutionists believe over billions of years, by random chance, you evolved from a single cell. They believe this process started after the big bang, where nothing blew up and became everything. Life arose from inorganic material and intelligence arose from non-intelligence. The other concept is intelligent design, also called creation. Creationists believe God took nothing and miraculously made everything in 6 days. Which concept is supported by evidence? Louis Pasteur, the father of microbiology, helped us understand that life doesn't spontaneously arise from non-life, but life can only come from life. Mathematicians also recognize evolution is mathematically impossible, as the change of it occurring is 1 in 1 x 10 ^40,000. On the other hand, the Bible says, "You are fearfully and wonderfully made" (Ps. 139:14). You were designed fully formed, as the fossil record indicates, with the purpose of glorifying God (Ps. 86:9). And although God created man in His image to live (Gen. 1:27), we die because we've sinned against God. Have you sinned? Let's see. Have you ever lied, stolen or used God's name in vain? If so, you're guilty of breaking God's Law, known as the 10 Commandments, and you've sinned against Him. On Judgment Day, you will be guilty before God and because of your sin, you will end up in hell. But God does not want that! He provided a way so that all that would believe in Him would have their sins forgiven and not suffer in hell for eternity. The Bible says, "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" (Rom. 5:8). After Jesus Christ (God in the flesh) was crucified for the sins of the ungodly, He rose from the dead on the third day defeating death. If you will confess your sins against God, repent (turn from your sins) and put your faith in Jesus Christ alone, He will forgive your sins and grant you eternal life.
