Fearfully & Wonderfully Made
God, who is omniscient, did an awesome job in designing the universe including us, but there are some puzzling facts that make his design difficult to understand. One of them is its composition.
Recently, out of curiosity and the urging of the Holy Spirit, I took a course called Dark Matter and Dark Energy. I obtained it on DVD’s from The Teaching Company.
I had known for a long time that my worldview requires that I have an up-to-date cosmology; I wanted to know more about the structure and composition of the universe we live in. I knew that astrophysicists have analyzed the composition of the universe and found it consists of matter that can be seen and demonstrated -- “dark” matter that cannot be seen or demonstrated, and another constituent that is pure “dark” energy.
According to the mathematical calculations of Einstein, the universe should end with a “Big Crunch” just as it started with a Big Bang. But what Edwin Hubble found in 1922, is that the expansion of the universe is not decelerating, but instead is accelerating.
The expansion he demonstrated has most recently been theorized to be due to dark energy, but scientists also believe, because of their calculations, there is dark matter, too.

The Word
“In your relationships with one another,
have the same attitude of mind Christ Jesus had: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very
nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a human being,
he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death — even death on a cross. Therefore, God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name. That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that
Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.”
Philippians 2:5-11

How Can You Believe?
From a human point of view, it is ridiculous to believe in a God who has always existed – one whose existence has no beginning or end. It is ridiculous to believe he exists in a supernatural dimension where there is a heaven of eternal reward and a hell of eternal punishment.
It is ridiculous to believe in a God you cannot see. It is ridiculous to believe when He does not speak to us in an audible voice. It is ridiculous to believe that he exists when you cannot touch him and he does not have an odor or taste. It is ridiculous to believe that he is omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient when you cannot prove his existence. It is ridiculous to believe that he created the universe or that he created you and me by his Word. It is ridiculous to believe that there is a personified evil called Satan or that there are angels or demons. It is just as ridiculous to believe that God gave us authoritative rules to live by.
Even though faith in God appears to be ridiculous, 90% of people in the US still believe!
