7659 Creation evidence of an essential Deity....

July 29, 1960: Book 80

Everything you see around you in creation serves the perfection of the spiritual. Nothing is meaningless and purposeless, everything has its purpose, even if you humans cannot recognize it. But God's wisdom has ruled everywhere where His love created.... His omnipotence brought everything to fruition that wisdom and love wanted.... The whole of creation is the expression of God's strength of love, His immeasurable wisdom and power. And creation is suitable to let people recognize the greatness of a God and creator; it is also suitable to let people believe in a God and creator if only they think about what they see around them. Yet people walk blindly in spirit through earthly life, who pay no attention to what proves God's greatness to them; they cannot see because they do not open their eyes to the wonders of nature.... They take everything for granted and nature tells them nothing because they don't believe. For the believing human being involuntarily remembers the Eternal Deity when he merely delves into a work of creation and reflects on its origin and purpose.... For creation proves a God because it testifies to a lawful order which always requires a Lawgiver and because it reveals the purpose and destiny of every work of creation, which in turn proves a wise, thinking Being Who gave His destiny to everything created. But the human being must also have the will to find out whether an essential Deity seeks to reveal Himself to people through creation.... He must want to think correctly and thus also strengthen his faith by being proven a God and creator through creation.... He must reflect in the will to gain insight into problems which are objects of dispute amongst people.... For there will always be people who seek to deny a God and creator to those who acknowledge Him, who believe in Him.... And in such matters of dispute creation truly serves to provide every person with clarification if only he seriously desires it. And the very seriousness of this desire is decisive for the answer which the human being will now mentally receive.... For the miracles of nature are not human products, but neither are they arbitrarily created works, otherwise they would not reveal the lawful order. For creation is an expression of strength which was directed by a will as long as its results are purposeful and subject to certain laws which always testify to a wise Law Giver. Anyone who asks will receive an answer.... but anyone who gives himself the answer as it suits him, because he does not want to believe in a God and creator, will also certainly err, for his thinking will be wrongly guided by the one who did not want to acknowledge God himself and who is therefore also stricken with spiritual blindness and will never convey the truth to a human being.... Anyone who does not acknowledge God is under the influence of God's adversary, and this influence will always aim to destroy people's every belief in a God and creator.... But the human being can free himself from this influence if he earnestly seeks to know the truth himself, for the desire for truth results in his train of thought being directed such that he can nevertheless attain faith in a God and creator Who reveals Himself to him in the wonders of nature. For God can be recognized by anyone who wants to recognize Him.... And He has so many means of grace at hand which help the human being to believe.... He need only look around and the light of knowledge can be kindled in him if only he is of good will.... Then all works of creation will preach to him of God's love, wisdom and omnipotence.... Then he will be able to believe and never lose his faith again...._>Amen
