=== Matter Versus Eternal God (03:09) ===

[00:00:00]  Hey guys, real quick before we get started, I have a small request.
[00:00:03]  If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show, would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five star review?
[00:00:09]  This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
[00:00:17]  Thanks.
[00:00:20]  Jesus said, Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
[00:00:25]  You're listening to Daily Truth.
[00:00:30]  So, what is seen?
[00:00:31]  That is All of matter, all the universe, everything we can touch and feel and see, what is seen was not made out of other things that are seen.
[00:00:39]  What is visible did not come from what is visible, which is what?
[00:00:42]  It means that the scripture is explicitly telling us in Hebrews 11 3 that matter is not eternal.
[00:00:50]  But did you know that if you deny all forms of any personal deity, then your only other option is that matter is your deity?
[00:01:03]  Matter is eternal.
[00:01:05]  We know.
[00:01:06]  And every, I mean, atheists, everybody would acknowledge if they're using logic and reason and thinking with the mind that God gave them, they would acknowledge that if nothing ever existed, then nothing is all that could ever exist.
[00:01:22]  Because the only thing that nothing can produce is nothing.
[00:01:27]  Nothing cannot give birth to something else.
[00:01:29]  So either there was always matter giving birth to more and more matter over billions of years.
[00:01:35]  And therefore, matter is eternal.
[00:01:38]  And therefore, matter is your deity.
[00:01:41]  Or there is a personal deity.
[00:01:43]  There is a personal God.
[00:01:45]  So it's either impersonal, eternal matter using time and impersonal chance.
[00:01:52]  Or it is a personal God using the word of his power.
[00:01:57]  Did you know that atheists believe in the supernatural?
[00:02:03]  That's the irony.
[00:02:05]  Don't let an atheist make you feel stupid.
[00:02:08]  Because they say, Oh, you believe in a God?
[00:02:09]  They do.
[00:02:10]  Their God is matter.
[00:02:11]  He's eternal.
[00:02:13]  It's eternal.
[00:02:14]  And they say, You believe in miracles?
[00:02:16]  Well, so do they.
[00:02:17]  They believe that this eternal God, which is matter, coupled with time and chance, billions of years and happenstance, does what?
[00:02:27]  Miracles.
[00:02:29]  That somehow a single celled organism crawled out of this prebiotic soup and all of a sudden it grew lungs and all these things and legs and somehow we ended up with it.
[00:02:41]  That's a miracle.
[00:02:43]  So, they're going to laugh at us for believing in miracles, and they're just going to believe in miracles but call it impersonal chance and billions of years.
[00:02:51]  So, they're going to say, well, it's not a miracle because we're accounting for billions of years.
[00:02:55]  And we're going to say, we're accounting for the limitless power of God.
[00:03:01]  So, you're going to say eternal matter and billions of years and chance, and we're going to say eternal God and the word of his power.

=== Miracles Are Not Crazy (00:31) ===

[00:03:10]  Both sound crazy.
[00:03:14]  So, it's not like theirs is reasonable and ours is archaic and primitive and dumb.
[00:03:19]  Both sound crazy.
[00:03:21]  So, it comes down to at the end of the day, which one is true.
[00:03:25]  Thanks so much for listening.
[00:03:26]  But, real quick, before you go, do us a small favor take a moment and leave us a five star review if you enjoyed the show.
[00:03:33]  This is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this biblically faithful content to as many people as possible.
[00:03:41]  Thanks so much.
