Written on Our Hearts

For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them
(Romans 2:14-15) ESV

The Bible tells us that the truth about God has been made known to us all. It also tells us that the moral law of God has been written on our hearts. When we consider the events of the first day, up to and including the development of cellular life with replicating DNA, it’s not too far fetched to propose that the word of God was encoded on that day.

We are Without Excuse

For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
(Romans 1:20) ESV

The beauty of nature is proof of God. We know right from wrong. Disbelief is active, not passive, it’s not the default state. Popular science (SciPop) is an attempt to account for human existence in such a way that it appears God isn’t necessary.

God has Shown it to Us

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
(Romans 1:18-19) ESV

Our conscience is why we experience guilt. We don’t have to be told when we’ve done something wrong: we know. We may act like it doesn’t matter but we still know that we did something wrong because of guilt.

Guilt

My guilt overwhelms me— it is a burden too heavy to bear.
(Psalms 38:4) NLT

Guilt is the fact of having committed a breach of conduct especially violating law and involving a penalty, the state of one who has committed an offense especially consciously, feelings of deserving blame especially for imagined offenses or from a sense of inadequacy, a feeling of deserving blame for offenses.
– Guilt, definition (Merriam-Webster)

Conscience

For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
(Hebrews 9:13-14) KJV

Our conscience is proof that the mainstream science narrative of godless existence (SciPop) is false. That means hell is real, but then so is heaven. The difference between heaven and hell is faith in Jesus Christ.
