Steven Hawking Says Science Makes God Unnecessary
Steven Hawking has always been known as a brilliant man. Lately he has been speaking out on religion in ways that makes it clear that he is not a fan of God. God is irrelevant and unneccessary to him. The scriptures tell us that the fool has said in their heart that there is no God. He also said the other day that if man did not find a way to colonize the universe that we would all be in danger of extinction. When "smart people" reject God, they do so at their own peril. It is a dangerous thing to discount the One True God. When smart people begin making such statements they make it so that people begin to wonder about many of the other things they may say...even if those things may have value and be otherwise true. Just because Hawking is very wrong on this and other things does not mean that everything else they say is wrong or bogus. But I will say this, when supposed smart people with a large number of degrees behind their name speak out against God it makes me wonder about their mind, their perception but mostly about the darkness that has filled their heart. The scripture tells us that Satan blinds the hearts of men. Hawking has a blinded heart. And even though he doesn't believe in God; God believes in him. And perhaps for right now that is more important than what Hawking does or does not believe. Hawking is wrong on this and many other things. We mere mortals give celebrities and the intellectual elites way too much credit and credence to what they say and believe. Hawking is presenting alternative truth claims that are at odds with what the scripture teaches and both can not be true. I will pray for Steven Hawking and I will learn some truths from him but I will be careful about where I get my "truth" because the intellectual elites of our nation are failing us and the university that trains our teachers by giving the Steven Hawkings of this world too much of a voice. Steven Hawking says that science has "made god unnecessary"...perhaps that is true when one thinks of the little "g" god but the big "G" God as creator of the universe will have the last word on this and in the end if Steven Hawking does not give his life to Christ it will be Steven Hawking who is found "unnecessary." Sadly this will be true for billions who reject God. Do not make the same intellectual and faith mistake that Hawking has made. Discover that God is the most necessary "element" in all the universe.
