Description
No greater question has ever engaged the mind of man, or can, than this same question of the existence of God. It is the most important of all, because all depend upon it. If God is, then the universe is accounted for; if God is, then the origin of man is an open secret; if God is, then the mysteries of life may find solution. True, there are those who say “God is not;” and who would, if it were possible, dethrone Him and orphan the universe. But, as the great Dr. Gordon said:—“No power or might of man can sweep the stars from the sky, or blot the sun from the heavens, or efface the splendid landscape.” “But,” as he continued, “one wound in the eye can destroy the sight and make all those things as though they were not. There is such thing as the eclipse of faith, unbelief filming the soul, so that time and space become a great blank; vacant,- lifeless, meaningless.” Such is true of the man who hath put out his own eyes, preferring darkness; and it is of such an one our text speaks,—“The fool hath said in his heart there is no God.”
