Order in the Universe
Some time ago, I was talking to a guy who has a degree in sub-nuclear physics. He was explaining to me the complexity of design in the universe at that level. He said that after studying it for some time, he was driven to acknowledge that we live in a universe that has an intelligent designer. In other words, there must be a God.
Such a conclusion is not surprising when you consider the biblical understanding of the world. All that is has come into existence by the intention and design of an orderly God. Genesis tells us that this God spoke and the world came into order. The book of Hebrews tells us that he continues to speak, upholding the universe by the word of his power. According to the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Colossians: Christ “is before all things and in him all things hold together.”
Any scientists out there? Here’s my advice. Diligently continue to investigate and ponder the mysteries of the creation. God delights when people admire his work.

And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach—if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard…
~Colossians 1:19-23 NASB
