The Lord created the earth with his power and sustains it with his wisdom (Jer 51:15). This is a basic truth. Departure from this truth wreaks havoc in the lives of men. If the Lord is not the Creator/Sustainer then we are a product of chance destined to pass into oblivion. We have no meaning or purpose. Our only drive is the instinct for biological survival. If survival is the “prime directive” then morality is moot. There is no point in serving your fellow man or even acting in a civil manner if the rule is “survival of the fittest.” But if God is our Creator/Sustainer, then we are accountable to him. What matters is how we use our lives to love his creatures and bring him glory. That is a much more worthy goal then survival.
