God Cannot Not Be

  

Stream episode Aseity, Acts 17 v 22-34 (Matt Pitts) 'Who is our God?' -  Part 1 by Exmouth Chapel podcast | Listen online for free on SoundCloud

 

Here is a Divine impossibility:

God cannot not be

Since he is a being in Himself

Quite unlike you or me.

 

God is underived

And thus, He is uncaused

And while many pretend to be,

He is the only God.

 

If God does not exist

Then nothing can have existed

For everything came into being

Because He insisted.

 

Atheists are struck down

By ten simple words,

Go to Genesis chapter 1 verse 1

If you’ve not yet heard.

 

Ordinarily,

I would type them here

But please check them for yourself

To be clear.

Following are words

Of an old medieval hymn,

They should bring some clarity

Amidst this world’s din.

 

Thou wast, O God,

And Thou wast blest

Before the world began,

Of Thine eternity possessed

Before time’s hourglass ran.

Thou need’st none

Thy praise to sing

As if Thy joy could fade,

Could’st Thou have needed anything

Thou could’st nothing made.

 

John Mason 1683

 

Herein lies remarkably

The aseity of God:

One contained within Himself

Needing nothing at all.

 

If ever there was nothing

Then nothing exists

For out of nothing, nothing comes,

Dear Mr. Atheist.

 

That God cannot not be

Is ontologically necessary

Or else, how could anything exist

That ever came to be?

 

How Does God's Aseity Affect You? – Dr. Brian Chilton 

 

An uncaused first cause

Is what God must be,

Having the power of being in himself

Is a logical necessity.

 

A perfect being at that

And not prone to entropy

Or else, His existence too is limited

And not for eternity.

 

In the beginning God…

There’s nothing more to add

Other than all that He has created

And from creation we’ve had.

 

How Does God's Aseity Affect You? – Dr. Brian Chilton 

 

Here’s another verse

Depicting God’s aseity,

A revelation John Mason must have had

To be able to see. 

 

Great and good God

It pleased Thee

Thy head to declare

And what Thine goodness did decree,

Thy greatness did prepare.

Thou spakest

And heaven and earth appeared

And answered to Thy call

As if their Maker’s voice they heard

Which is the creature’s all.

 

That God cannot not be

Is a Divine impossibility,

Thus, atheists and evolutionists

Argue nonsensically.
