Give Live Examples of How the Invisible Things of Him… Are Clearly Seen, Being Understood by the Things That Are Made?
Yes. The Bible says the invisible things of God are clearly seen by the things that are made. If you look around with open eyes, creation is preaching a sermon.
- One sun—threefold manifestation: We have one sun above us. From that one sun comes light to see, heat to live, and power to quicken growth. It’s not three suns—just one with a threefold expression. So is God: one God revealed as Father (above us), in the Son (made visible among us), and as the Holy Spirit (felt in us). Scripture ties the witness of the heavens to God’s glory and even calls Christ the Sun of righteousness (Psalm 19:1–6; Malachi 4:2; John 1:9). You see, one source, three operations—yet one.
- A seed dying and rising: Every spring your garden preaches resurrection. The seed goes into the ground, dies to itself, and then comes up in new life. Jesus used that to show His death and resurrection and ours (John 12:24; 1 Corinthians 15:36–38). What you plant isn’t the body that shall be, but God gives it a body. Nature makes it plain.
- Natural birth and the new birth: A baby comes by water, blood, and breath (spirit). The Scripture says we must be born of water and Spirit, and bears witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood (John 3:5–8; 1 John 5:6–8). Natural birth is the picture; new birth is the reality.
- The wind: You can’t see the wind, but you see the trees bow and you feel its touch. Jesus said that is how the Spirit works—unseen, but His effects are undeniable (John 3:8). Invisible power, visible results.
- Vine and branches: Life is in the vine; the same life flows into the branches and bears fruit. Cut off a branch and it withers. Jesus said, “I am the vine, you are the branches” (John 15:1–5). The unseen life of Christ produces visible fruit in a believer.
- Sowing and reaping—after its kind: In creation, every seed brings forth after its kind (Genesis 1:11–12). Paul says you reap what you sow (Galatians 6:7). Jesus said, “By their fruits you shall know them” (Matthew 7:16–20). The moral law is stamped into the natural order—cause, kind, and consequence.
- Marriage and Christ’s love: A husband laying down his life for his wife, and a wife honoring her husband, is an earthly sign of the heavenly mystery—Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:25–32). The visible covenant in a home mirrors the invisible covenant of redemption.
- Rain and the Word: Rain falls, waters the earth, and never returns without making it bud and bring forth. God says His Word works the same way—it accomplishes what He sends it to do (Isaiah 55:10–11). The water cycle is a daily parable of God’s faithful Word.
- The order and upholding of all things: Planets keep their paths; atoms hold together by forces you cannot see. The Bible says by Him all things consist and He upholds all things by the word of His power (Colossians 1:17; Hebrews 1:3). Unseen order, seen stability.
- The rainbow of promise: After the storm comes the bow in the cloud. God set it as a sign of His covenant mercy (Genesis 9:12–16). The visible arc reminds us of the invisible faithfulness of God.
- The pull that draws: Drop a magnet among filings—certain pieces leap to it. Jesus said, “No man can come to Me, except the Father which has sent Me draw him” (John 6:44). An unseen drawing produces a visible coming.
- Conscience in the heart: Even where no written law exists, people know right from wrong, their thoughts accusing or excusing them. That inner witness shows the work of the Lawgiver (Romans 2:14–15). The unseen law on the heart shows there is a Judge.
Now notice, if there were no Maker, why does every seed keep its law—after its kind? Who wrote that code? Why does the same sun that hardens clay melt wax? That’s how the same Gospel softens one heart and hardens another. You see, the invisible God left His fingerprints on everything He made.
Direct answer: Creation is God’s living classroom. His power, wisdom, order, life, love, faithfulness, resurrection, and Spirit are clearly seen in what He made.
Scripture: Romans 1:20 anchors it; the examples are witnessed by Psalm 19; Malachi 4:2; John 1, 3, 12, 15; 1 Corinthians 15; Genesis 1, 9; Isaiah 55; Galatians 6; Matthew 7; Ephesians 5; Colossians 1; Hebrews 1; Romans 2.
Simple logic: Unseen causes produce seen effects. Nature’s fixed laws, cycles, and patterns are not accidents; they are parables. One source, threefold operations; a seed that dies and rises; wind you can’t see but you can feel; a vine’s life proving itself in fruit—these speak aloud what eyes can’t see.
So open your eyes: the visible world is God’s testimony board. The invisible things of Him are clearly seen.

Looking at the unseen

Let's take a few men that did walk such, that looked at the unseen. Noah, for instance. Before there was one drop of water that fell from the heavens, Noah seen the rain coming. There was never had been any rains from the heavens. The skies were always clear; there were no clouds, never had been a cloud upon the earth. Why? Because it was God's program to water vegetation through the springs and things. But Noah, because that God said, "It's going to rain," he saw the rain coming, a hundred and twenty years before...

...a false leg got a reputation for doing it, but the Man that made the real leg, when He was here, didn't get no reputation. The Man that made the real teeth, He didn't take Himself no reputation, but the man that made false teeth got a reputation. The man that made an artificial eye made himself a name by doing it, but the man that made the real eye took on Himself no reputation. But He was Emmanuel. He walked humbly. He lived among the poor. The Bible said, "The common people heard Him gladly." He was rejected by...

And may He add His blessing to the reading of His Word. Now, coming to this thought, that we are faced tonight in this age with a supernatural move of the living God; and of course, we realize that we have many things.

Jesus Christ, God's Son, set in the church for you people, for such things as this: first He set apostles. Then after that He sent prophets, then teachers, pastors, and evangelists, to confirm this Word, to prove that He is some great teacher. I don't mean he has to have a Ph.D. He might know less about the Bible than a child that's still in his adolescence. Jesus knowed more about the Scriptures at twelve years old, then all the Pharisees did or the old learned sages. So you see, it doesn't take an intellectual mi...
A Wedding Supper
56-1006 §21
Now, the invitations was given. And no one can give the invitation except God Himself. That's right. God has to give the invitation. All right. Now, when God give the invitation... He made the supper ready, the king did. And he made all things ready before he sent out his invitations. The bridegroom would always do that in the oriental wedding ceremony: make all things ready. He said in the Bible here, "I have killed my fatlings, I have killed my lambs and my ox and so forth. And the table's all spread, everything'...
