Atheist

[SUS]

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

 

There shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

That is so sad that they deliberately pushed God away.

 

 

That's what we were talking about in my Sunday School class on this Sunday.

"And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil."

 

"And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."

The evil people will not come to the light because it shows others by reflecting what they have done

 

 

But the good will come to the light because they love the light.

I believe that in the last days many Atheists will turn to God. Who are we to judge? There are Atheists who have deliberately rejected God and there are Atheists who are just lost sheep waiting to be found.

It's God intention to save as many as possible because he loves all of us. Who are we to doubt him?

IMO, these verses seem to indicate that there are no such things/people as "atheists"...

granted, I admit that it's probably just a question of semantics.

Yes it is, but I agree, the verses don't directly point to atheists per se`.

[B3L13v3R]

This one points in the Atheist direction:

 

Psa 14:1 <To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.> The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

 

God does not believe in Atheist!

 

Pray for them and reach out to them with the Gospel

    I believe as Teditis does,I really think there are not true atheists,agnostics yes,,,,,,but atheists no.God Word tells us as said in the OP,":they are without excuse"......................the Heavens declares Gods Glory,He can be seen everywhere,in everything......I think between the blinding by the god of this world & mans desires to be their own god,they are simply in denial.......and like Oak said,our Father wants none to perish,,,,,,,,,,,,we really have to do our best not to miss one ministry moment or any opportunity to spread the Gospel of Jesus
