Finding the Truth, the Way In a Modern World

Modern World Truth

I realize that I have been very lax in presenting new poems lately.  The truth is so much studying, sometimes squelches my poetic side.  Then as I pondered the apologetic course I am currently in; these words began to form in my head.

The other day I listened to a debate on you-tube of Paul Kurtz.  He wrote the introduction to the Humanistic Manifesto II and helped in it’s development, as well as most likely contributed to Humanistic Manifesto III.  What I found amazing was that although, he denied any possibility of God; he believed out there somewhere must have existed some form of subatomic material eternally.  Since, nothing comes from nothing; something must have been eternally present.  We just haven’t discovered what that something was, according to him.  That takes a lot of faith; whereas, science instead of disproving God; has proven even things revealed to Moses, long ago.  I hope you enjoy this poem and take a moment to consider God, as our creator.

Finding The Truth, The Way In a Modern World

And as Mankind in pride doth say

That he has found the truth, the way

That science leads our earnest quest

The human brain it’s very best

 

Oh, look at all that we have learned

The truth for which we have so yearned

Yet, evil circles round us still

From all the thoughts of our free will

 

Our thoughts evolved so now we see

Inside each heart the will to be

Discovering truth, we think is new

Although revealed to ancient few

 

The Big Bang physics that we found

Revealed to Moses, on a mound

And written on a tablet stone

That what is new, had then been known

 

We seek to find our way to be

From nothingness, our destiny

Ah, yes; this truth before us lies

Grasping to hope before it dies

 

From nothingness, oh yes, we’re born

Into a life of prideful scorn

Until we come to one day see

That God created us to be

 

And through the ages, patiently

His love awaits you and me

To lay aside our foolish pride

To then, in Him our hearts abide

 

He paid the price of all our sin

That we might then be born again

Our spirit joining then with His

And there to find a joy that Is

 

No meaning truly can be found

Until to Him our hearts are bound

He freely gives this gift of grace

To all who turn to seek His face

 

The truth, the way, the life you see

Came to this earth for you and me

To die to pay our penalty

Upon that cross on Calvary

 

Oh, foolish man; that doth believe

That all of this did come to be

From something you have yet to find

You search for it within your mind

 

Yet, right there in your words you see

That nothing ever comes to be

Without a cause that must precede

These are your word, this is your creed

 

And yet you put your faith to find

Some particle of some kind

That must have been eternally

In order that all else could be

 

When truth is knocking at your door

While you still search for something more

How is that you run away

From He who bid you to stay.

CONCLUSION:

I am a firm believer in science, research, mathematics and medicine.  When I see all the intricacies of this planet, galaxy, the human cell and the thought processes of the brain; I stand in awe of God-the creator of it all.  In all their discoveries and desires to deny God, they have only proven the impossibility of their not being God.  Nothing new came to be; rather, science is barely scratching the surface of what can be discovered.
