The Complexity Of Creation

The more that is discovered about the complexity of creation and the incredible fine-tuning of the universe required for life on this planet, the harder it is to not believe in an incredibly intelligent being that created it.

It was this hard scientific evidence for design in creation that caused Sir Frederick "Fred" Hoyle (1915-2001), considered the greatest British physicist of the 20th century, to reject naturlistic theories of how the universe came into being.

Hoyle writes:

"The likelihood (probability) of the spontaneous formation of life from inanimate matter is one to number with 40,000 noughts after it... It is big enough to bury Darwin and the whole theory of evolution. There was no primeval soup, neither on this planet nor on any other, and if the beginnings of life were not random, they must therefore have been the product of purposeful intelligence."

That God has made Himself known in His creation is noted by the Apostle Paul in Romans 1.

Romans 1:18-21

¹⁸ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, ¹⁹ because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.

²⁰ For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, ²¹ because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
