Isaiah 45:18a 18 For thus says the Lord,
who created the heavens
(he is God!),
who formed the earth and made it
(he established it;
he did not create it empty,
he formed it to be inhabited!) (ESV)
Here God indicates, through the prophet Isaiah, that He purposefully made the earth as a habitation for creatures, including, humans, or maybe He is speaking just of humans here.. This relates to what is called the anthropic principle.
Thanks for reading.
Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.
