I’m ever surprised that people who turn down God experience they're to a greater extent than intelligent than those who follow Him.
Romans 1:20 says they're rejecting truth that is staring them inwards the face.
"Through everything God made, they tin clearly come across his invisible qualities--his eternal ability together with divine nature. So they cause got no excuse for non knowing God."
The even out of Christ’s resurrection confirms this truth.
In Matthew 27:62-66, the religious leaders decided to forbid imitation rumors close Christ’s resurrection yesteryear posting guards at the tomb. In fact, Pilate told them to "make the tomb every bit secure every bit you lot know how." They did their best, simply it backfired when the Roman soldiers witnessed Christ's resurrection.
The truth stared them inwards the facial expression upward when they heard the soldiers' even out close the earthquake together with the angel, simply they bribed the soldiers to tell a prevarication (Matthew 28:11-15).(1)
Let's accept fourth dimension today to pray for those who nonetheless prefer the lie. May they quit denying the undeniable prove of Christ's coming, death, together with resurrection.

(1) I ever detect the soldiers' prevarication amusing: They claim they were together with then fully asleep that they didn’t come across the robbery, yet they knew just what happened together with who did it!
