The Atheist Says No To God!

There was a old man who thought that he was going to go to hell and party with all his friends. He bragged about all his illicit conquests as a younger person, laughing about the sin he loved.

While relaying his wicked life to my husband, my husband asked him where he thought he would go when he died, heaven or hell. The response of the old man was that he didn't care, he had friends in both places, it didn't matter.

He said that he preferred hell because that's where all the fun would be. Then the old man asked my husband where he thought the old man would go, my husbands reply was, "hell of course."

My husband had a customer and had to turn away momentarily to serve, when he turned back around to say more, the old man was walking angrily away, hobbling along on his cane as fast as he could go, while shouting profanities.

Hmmm! What made the old man angry at my husband's response? The old man said he didn't care where he went, that he had friends in both heaven and hell, but he preferred hell where he thought the party would be.

What my husband had witnessed was a man who knew that hell was not preferable or he would not have been angry at the suggestion that he was going there. Not only was the man rebellious, he was lying, he knew that hell was a terrible place, didn't want to go there, but in his rebellion he verbally denied what he knew to be true.

There is a part of every human being that knows there is a God that controls everything and they know there is a heaven and a hell.

Romans 1:20 "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."

I do not believe in such a person as an atheist, God says, "only a fool says in his heart....no God." Psalm 14:1

The atheist is not truly believing there is no God, he is deliberately choosing to say no to Him. Fighting to resist the God He knows exists, he pretends that He has no power over him. After all, isn't this what the devil said when he rebelled, "I will be like God."

Those who claim to be atheists are as little children fighting to have dominance over God and everyone else. It is going to be an eye opener on the day they will bow their knee, whether they want to or not, to a God that will throw them into the lake of fire. Where will their control over their own destiny be then?

Romans 14:11 "For it is written, "AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL GIVE PRAISE TO GOD."

God offers us an eternity with pure love being cared for deeply by God Who created us, or hell if we resist Him. Why would anyone resist Him, He gave His own life, will give those who love Him an eternity with nothing but the best of everything and do it forever, only a fool would reject this to have their own way in this short period of time on earth, while missing the blessings of eternity.

Are atheists fools? You betcha!!!
