REMARKS. On surveying the world and its appendages, the proof of God's existence is strongly exhibited. The order of the planetary hosts, and the system of organized matter, assuming forms adapted to certain ends, manifestly show that there must be a contriver. This contriver must, of necessity, be self

The mode of his existence, however, is a subject far above the understanding of man.(w) Finite beings cannot comprehend him.(x) There is nothing in the universe that can justly represent him, for there

This kind of reasoning, which some have termed proving the existence of God from the light of nature, is acknowledged by revelation. "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." Rom. 1: 20. Hence those who have not the Bible nor the preached gospel are inexcusable if they do not believe and worship God.
