I am reminded of two bible verses.

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.

Psalm 19:1 ...The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

La belleza de todo lo que he visto de la creación de Dios me da confianza de que lo que no he visto de ella tenga la misma belleza. Debemos mostrarlo nuestro agradecimiento cuidando de su obra maestra.

The beauty of all that I have seen of God's creation gives me confidence that what I have not seen of it would have the same beauty. We must show our appreciation to him by taking care of his masterpiece.

True wisdom and intelligence move us closer to God and not away from Him. He is our Creator.

La verdadera sabiduría y la inteligencia nos acercan más a Dios y no lejos de Él. Él es nuestro Creador.

Terry Mark

And he needs no religion to be here.

Y él no necesita la religión para estar aquí.

Reminds me of one of my mother's favorite hymns / Me recuerda a uno de los himnos favoritos de mi madre:

This is my Father's world, and to my listening ears

All nature sings and around me rings the music of the spheres.

This is my Father's world. I rest me in the thought

Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas. His hands the wonders wrought.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Hebrews 11:1 New King James

enter image description here

11 Es, pues, la fe la certeza de lo que se espera, la convicción de lo que no se ve.

Hebreos 11:1Reina-Valera 1960 (RVR1960) La fe

To truly have "faith' is to have a treasure beyond desire , one needs nothing more. Blessed are the faithful they shall inherit all. - ray76, Dec 22, 2014

Emerson: '' Todo lo que he visto me enseña que debo confiar en el Creador a quien no he visto"

I.e, it makes me believe in the Creator , rather than in what I've not seen, even though I have not seen this Creator.

I'm only translating. I'm not religious and will not comment on the statement, although, I could, but it would only annoy people on this site.

El paraíso terrenal no es visto ahora mismo, pero todas las profecías de la Biblia punto hacia el final del sufrimiento y de la muerte y el fin del malvado aquí en esta tierra por el Reino de Dios. Aprender acerca de este reino trae alegría a las personas que viven en este periodo de malvada época.

The earthly paradise is not seen right now, but all the Bible prophecies point toward the end of suffering and death and the end of evil right here on this earth by God's kingdom. Learning about this kingdom brings joy to those living in this evil time period.

I certainly hope that you are right Bandit. - ray76, Dec 21, 2014
Many people believe being a good person means the kingdom is in their hearts and they will go to heaven. Do you really think the earth could be a home for perfect humans under God's tutelage and leadership? - bandit51jd, Dec 21, 2014
