Philosophers think not that they have reasoned skillfully enough about inferior causes, unless they separate God very far from his works. It is a diabolical science, however, which fixes our contemplations on the works of nature, and turns them away from God.We could substitute, today, naturalistic scientists (and those who unwaveringly bow before and follow them) in the place of naturalistic philosophers. But the same diabolical science is still practiced and believed, separating God very far from his works. Naturalism and functional deism, as I've noted before, have a stranglehold on our society. Sadly this all too often includes professing Christians who, reading the likes of Ps. 29, should know better. We should be ashamed of how little we acknowledge God's almighty hand in the created order. Those in his temple should be incessantly shouting, "Glory!" (Ps. 29:9).
O show us your glory, thundering God of glory, O show us your holy majesty and might, that we might give you, YHWH, the glory due your name, and worship you in the splendor of holiness.
