10-3-21 | A Divine Equation Pt. 1

October 3, 2021 • Pastor Ken Cline

Have you ever heard of a Whelk shell?
How about the Fibonacci Sequence?
Yeah, me either.
While neither of these things sound stunningly theological, you’ll find - as Pastor Ken teaches in this week’s message – that they are evidence of a divine order of things created by an unfathomable God.

Romans 1:20 tells us that the attributes of God can be clearly perceived in nature. That means everywhere we look, we can see His awesomeness, power, order, and care that He used when creating all things. Unfortunately, mankind tends to dismiss the divine and tries to come up with explanations that fit into our tiny little brains. But just because something seems right to us, that doesn’t mean it is. Have you ever tried to fix something at home without consulting an expert? You might be pretty handy or maybe you just wanted to save money (or both) but as you tried to figure it out, you eventually decided on a fix that seemed perfectly feasible to you. Unfortunately, the next day, you found out that bubble gum is actually not the right material to fix a leaky pipe with. You then had to call on an expert to come fix it right. That’s how we can be with God. We try to do things or fix things or create things on our own as we see fit without consulting the Creator of the Universe who knows a thing or two about…well, everything! Let’s stop relying on ourselves (who God created) to make it through this world (which God created) and start relying on the expert.
