Wisdom of Solomon 13:1-9,Luke 17:26-37,Psalm 19:2-5
For all men who were ignorant of God were foolish by nature; and they were unable from the good things that are seen to know him who exists, nor did they recognize the craftsman while paying heed to his works;if men were amazed at their power and working, let them perceive from them how much more powerful is he who formed.For as they live among his works they keep searching, and they trust in what they see, because the things that are seen are beautiful.Yet again, not even they are to be excused;for if they had the power to know so much that they could investigate the world, how did they fail to find sooner the Lord of these things.
As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of man.They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.so will it be on the day when the Son of man is revealed
Let's not get carried away by the creations,so as to forget our creator. Instead,let's accept the creations thankfully from Lord and use it to lead us to the everlasting truth ,Our Lord,who through thy amazing grace showed us the way of salvation, Jesus. Let glorify His name with all the creations of this world.
Whoever seeks to gain his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.
Ever since the creation of the world his eternal power and divine nature, invisible though they are, have been understood and seen through the things he has made. So they are without excuse; for though they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their senseless minds were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools; and they exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling a mortal human being or birds or four-footed animals or reptiles.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the degrading of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.Romans 1:20-25
