you know there is always this resistance to the things of God and His truth. This bold face denial that the heart is wrong stands fundamentally opposed to what the scriptures teaches that the heart is wrong and the heart is in need of mending.
Was it not Malcolm Muggeridge who once said, "that the depravity of man is at once the most empirically verifiable reality, but at the same time the most intellectually resisted fact."
I mean if you where to ask the top scientists in the world how do they explain away certain things they would tell you, "that we recognize that that was a question of an immense problem for scientists, but we selectively select the problems we choose to respond to."
Once again think for example how does one explain the origin of the universe? I'm not talking about evolution, which is a process after the origin but the origin of the universe. Again when Bertram Russell was asked where the origin of the universe came from he said, "It's just there!" You know why can't we as Christians say that about God 'He's just there!' aw that's not satisfactory. But the 'Big Bang' can explain its bangingness, without any other question thrown at it. Its a nimbus its protection.
You know a professor at Cambridge, a professor of Quantum. Dr. John Polkinghorne once stated the impossibility of the universe happening by accident. Dr. Polkinghorne is one the leading Quantum Physicists in the world and His book "Quantum," which was acclaimed by physicists of one of the best in its genre. Dr. John Polkinghorne was once lecturing on the first three seconds of the existence of the universe and he made this comment. He said as fact, "Do you know that the ratio between the expansion and the contraction had to be so precise, so exact, and the margin of error so small. That it would be literally like taking aim at a one square in object on the other end of the universe, 20 billion light years away and hitting it bulls-eye?" Dr. Polkinghorne said that!
Then Dr. Polkinghorne at the end of his lecture with a sneer on his face said to the class, "Ladies and gentlemen, theres no free lunch, somebody has to pay." In other words you dont get a Universe so densely textured, and so information rich by accident.
