Welcome to the Real, Supernatural World

Einstein said, "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle." Either the universe is a miracle, created by God, or Darwin was right and natural forces caused it. Either life is a miracle, a gift from God, or it is an incredibly lucky accident. Either God is the creator or is a liar or doesn't exist. Either the Bible is true or it is not. The Bible says that God created the universe, the world, and life itself. Paul specifically says Jesus is the creator of all things. The Bible says everything is a miracle; everything is supernatural. The Bible says, then, that there is no natural world, only a supernatural world.
The Bible is not a science book and doesn’t try to be. But it clearly states that God is the creator. We either believe that or we don’t. God left out many details, and left us with mysteries to solve. Let science dig and learn and move forward. But God didn’t leave it to debate whether or not he was the creator. He said the universe is supernatural. He said life is supernatural. If we want to deny that, we are questioning his character, calling him a liar, or simply denying his existence. I believe Einstein was on to something. I believe everything is a miracle.
