No God?

Listen from:
After the close of a meeting, a skeptic said to me: "I do not believe there is a God." It was very late and no time for argument. I cast the burden on the Lord in prayer, and I must have looked so happy, for he said: "You are laughing at me."
"No, but I was thinking if all the grasshoppers on earth were to say, `There is no sun,' it would not change the fact of it one bit. The Bible declares, 'The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God."' Psalm 14:11<<To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.>> The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. (Psalm 14:1).
It is a very serious thing not to believe God, for it is calling Him a liar. For, "he that believeth not God hath made Him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of His Son." 1 John 5:1010He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. (1 John 5:10). To such we must say, "God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar." Rom. 3:44God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. (Romans 3:4).
I am glad to report that some months later I met him again, and he said: "I have since found out that I was a fool, and that I was the liar, and I have now come to Christ."
