What a decision was it? No man could have done it: from a Prince for 40 years to a mere shepherd in his next 40 years! But the Bible said plainly that only the power of faith could have done what Moses did! “By faith Moses,” said Hebrews 11:24, and in verse 27, “By faith he left Egypt.” It was all by faith.
Yes, atheism crumbles, as it is not part of human design. It is like putting a non-genuine part in your car’s engine. A long time ago, God said that an atheist is a fool or someone engaged in self-deception. In Psalm 14:1, David said that the “fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.” The atheist’s belief starts with his “conversation with his heart” without the open-mindedness to consider the mysteries of the world around him. Observe the following declaration of one atheist from the Web:
We find in Acts 3:19 the command to “Repent, then, and turn to God.” (NIV) Biblical repentance, therefore, means the act of turning to God through faith as we cannot change our attitude and love for our Creator without first believing in the gospel of Christ. We can repent by believing but not without first hearing the Word of God about sin and the free salvation through faith in Christ’s substitutionary death.
Have you noticed that as we advance in technology, we deteriorate in moral values so equally fast? While Eve covered herself, many in today’s generation wanted to show off their body? Nude societies are making headlines in Australia and other countries. And people love them for being such blatantly depraved! God said that the man, Legion, was undressed, and had 2,000 demons! (cf. Mark 5:15) Mary Magdalene had seven demons. (Mark 16:9) Indeed, the demons are influencing our culture, and worse, our majority support and enjoy them! The apostle Paul wrote over 2000 years ago that “although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.” Corrupt politicians are voted in and the principled ones voted out. The people’s choice to release Barabbas, the robber, and crucify Jesus stays in the human heart until now to dignify what is crooked and wrong. How about calling a harlot as a “pornstar?” What talent does she possess to merit the adjective of a “star” or famous? Why not shameful, wicked, falling star—or other terms more convicting! The demons, the powers of darkness, must have twisted our moral sense and shaped out what is ugly and immoral into our culture.
