This is a series that we’ve been going through, trying to understand our life on earth.
Last time I told us about a mountain climber that slipped from the mountain top, and when held on a small tree he noticed that the plant started pulling off from the root, and he called out looking into heavens shouting if there is anyone there to help him, and he heard a voice that said “yes I can help you but you gotta trust me, leave the small tree”....

There is another part of that tale that I believe is critical. When he was going to face an obvious death, the climber did not just ask, "Is there anybody up there?" He shouted and specified, "Is there anybody up there who can help me?" That is the question of present day man. He needs to know whether there is anybody outside the circle of every day life who can be of help to him. However, I think the climber was asking a significantly more principal question. He needed to know not just whether there was somebody who could help, yet whether there was somebody who was ready to help. This is the issue that is first in the brains of present day people. As such, they want to know whether there is providence, as well as whether it is cood and unfeeling or kind and compassionate.

Along these lines, the topic of providence that I need to consider in this blog post isn't simply whether there is anybody there, however whether that somebody is capable and willing to do anything in this world in which we live.

A CLOSED, MECHANISTIC UNIVERSE.

Among the thoughts that have formed Western culture, a standout amongst the most huge is the possibility of a closed, robotic universe. This perspective of the world has held on for several hundred years and has had huge impact in molding how individuals comprehend the way life is lived out. I would contend that in the secular world, the prevailing thought is that we live in a universe that is shut to any sort of interruption from outside, a universe that runs absolutely by mechanical powers and causes. In a word, the issue for modern man is causality.
