1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear (Hebrews 11:1-3).
These verses attest that it is in God that we are to trust. For example, through faith we know that God created all that is out of nothing. That is, outside of God, nothing exists that was not created. We know that this is so because God’s word informs us that God created all. There are many other evidences from the Creation that there is a Creator. For instance, the level of complexity and order within the Universe, and the mere existence of intelligent life are just a few examples. However, even if all objective evidence pointed away from a Creator (which it does not), we must trust God’s word that He is Creator.
