The atheist insists that we are here for no reason in particular. He tells us that matter has always existed, that one time billions of years ago matter exploded and by chance some of this matter formed our own solar system including our wonderful planet Earth. By accidents one day microscopic life just happened to come into being and over the ages this simple life evolved into all the other forms of life which we see on earth today. From a long line of accidents we are an accident on its way to its final accident. So as far as the atheist is concerned, life has no real purpose.
Nothing really matters.
We live a few years, die, and accomplish nothing and finally are remembered no more. This verse tells us that there was a beginning to time and a beginning to this earth and that God was already there in the beginning because he is eternal. No one would dare say that his television set just came together by some explosion or accident. It would be crazy for someone to claim such a thing. The Bible states plainly that we are here because God created us.
