Below is a quote by Isaac Newton, one of the greatest scientific discoverers of all time.

“Atheism is so senseless. When I look at the solar system, I see the earth at the right distance from the sun to receive the proper amounts of heat and light. This did not happen by chance.”  (https://bibleapologetics.org/quotes-on-god-and-the-bible-by-isaac-newton/)

Earth is unique among the planets of our solar system.  Its carefully balanced atmosphere of oxygen, nitrogen, and other gasses is essential to life on earth.  It is the only planet in our solar system covered predominantly by water.  It is also the only planet in our solar system with a global magnetic field.  This field envelopes the entire earth from pole to pole.  It provides protection from incoming cosmic radiation and has direct beneficial effects on the human body.

God declares that He designed the earth to be inhabited.

“For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.” (Isaiah 45:18)

God’s apostle, Paul, warned Timothy to beware of false science which would be proposed as time progressed.

“O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:” (1 Timothy 6:20)

The psalmist declares that those who deny the existence of God are fools.

“The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.” (Psalm 53:1)

In modern times, most of our academic institutions teach evolution as an alternative to God, the Creator.  Isaac Newton expressed this opinion of such foolishness.

“He who thinks half-heartedly will not believe in God; but he who really thinks has to believe in God.” (https://bibleapologetics.org/quotes-on-god-and-the-bible-by-isaac-newton/)

Have you come to understand that God created you and the earth you live on?  Early in man’s history, he rejected God’s command.  Man’s nature became sinful.  This sinful nature rejects the reality of God.  After all, if God really exists, we are responsible to Him.  Our only hope of eternal salvation is to believe in and trust God as Creator and Savior.  He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to pay the death penalty for all who trust Him.  Embracing the foolishness of evolution and denial of God. will make your eternity very unpleasant.  Where will you be sent on judgment day?
