Some of the most basic issues of life remain a mystery to most people because they refuse Gods counsel. For example, the most brilliant thinkers have never agreed on the origin of the universe. Theirs is a futile attempt to explain what is beyond the realm of scientific investigation. But such things arent beyond the realm of knowing--if a person is willing to be taught by Gods Word. For the Bible clearly states that God spoke the physical universe into existence, creating visible matter from what was non-physical or invisible (Rom. 4:17). No humans observed that event. It cannot be measured or repeated. It must be taken by faith. Any attempt to explain the origin of the universe or the nature of man apart from Gods Word is foolhardy. The unregenerate mind, no matter how brilliant it might be, cannot fathom such things. So never feel you have to apologize for trusting Gods Word. Let the confidence of the psalmist be yours: I have more insight than all my teachers, for Thy testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, because I have observed Thy precepts (Ps. 119:99-100). -gty.org
