The first was this: Take 10 identical coins and mark them 1 to 10. Place them in your pocket. Now take one out. There is 1 chance in 10 that you will get number 1. Now replace it, and the chances that number 2 will follow number 1 are not 1 in 10, but 1 in 100. With each new coin taken out, the risk will be multiplied by 10, so that the chance of 10 following 9, is 1 in 10,000,000,000 (ten billion). It seemed so unbelievable to me that I immediately took pencil and paper and very quickly discovered he was right. Try it yourself!<br \/><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"main_content\">That is why George Gallup, the American statistician, says: \u201cI could prove God statistically. Take the human body alone \u2013 the chance that all its functions would just happen is a statistical monstrosity.\u201d<br \/><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"main_content\"><br \/>Surely no thoughtful persons would wish to base their eternal future on a \u201cstatistical monstrosity\u201d. Perhaps that is why the Bible says in Psalm 14:1 \u201cThe fool hath said in his heart, there is no God.\u201d<br \/><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"main_content\">Men may resort to computers and complicated statistics, trying to prove God. But that is quite unnecessary. A little reflection in humility will convince us of the Creator. Then we will say with the Psalmist: \u201cO Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me\u2026 whither shall I go from thy Spirit? Or whither shall I flee from thy presence?\u201d<br \/><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"main_content\">The fact of God is everywhere embraced by men of tender heart. His love and goodness reaches to all. Only the ungrateful deny it. Do not try to prove God! Only proclaim His saving name everywhere!<br \/><\/span><\/p><p><span class=\"main_content\"><br \/><i>Thought: God is His own best evidence.<br \/>Prayer: \u201cSearch me, O God, and know my heart.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thereasonwhy.net\/?p=62\">Previous<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thereasonwhy.net\/?page_id=27\">Continuous Play<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thereasonwhy.net\/?p=103\">Next<\/a><\/p><hr \/><p><audio controls=\"controls\"> <source src=\"https:\/\/www.thereasonwhy.net\/download\/cd\/004_Chpt 003.ogg\" type=\"audio\/ogg\" \/> <source src=\"https:\/\/www.thereasonwhy.net\/download\/cd\/004_Chpt 003.mp3\" type=\"audio\/mpeg\" \/> <strong>Your browser doesn&#8217;t support this player.
