God Is

Tom Moore

A certain elementary school got a new teacher. This new teacher was an atheist and proud of it.  In fact, he was always talking about it, and since the kids were fairly young, he intimidated them.

One day he boldly announced, “My mother was an atheist, my father was an atheist and I'm an atheist.  How many in this room are atheists?”

The kids, being a little scared of him, all raised their hands; all except for one little girl.

So then he asked her, “Well, what are you then?”

She said, “I'm a Christian.  My mother is a Christian, my father is a Christian and I'm a Christian too.”

The teacher then sarcastically snarled, “If your mother was a moron and your father was a moron, what would that make you?”

She thought for a moment and meekly replied, “I guess that would make me an atheist.”

The Psalmist announced, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God” (Psalm 14:1).

The Psalmist also declared, “The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament showeth his handiwork” (Psalm 19:1).

Since God is, we are under obligation to Him. Therefore, Solomon said, “This is the end of the matter; all hath been heard: fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every work into judgment, with every hidden thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil” (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14).
