The word of God is not a secret code that needs unlocked.

LOL. Other sources say something different. Surely you have seen other sources? Reputable. sources do not always agree. Your argument is with them. Your logical fallacy does not fly.

What about subatomic particles?

What about Trump's claim that the Haitians are eating the cats and dogs in Springfield, Ohio?

Sorry, I had to tease ya a little to lighten the mood here.

Anyway, to answer your question:

Yes, subatomic particles known as baryons are made up of three components, specifically three quarks. The most well-known examples of baryons are:

1. Proton: Composed of two up quarks and one down quark (uud).
2. Neutron: Composed of one up quark and two down quarks (udd).

I hope this helps and may God bless you.

Some examples only seem to work, but in reality do not. While I believe the Godhead is trinitarian, I don't believe this is what is in view in Romans 1. The Apostle is concerned to relate why mankind is held responsible before God, and not what is entailed in the Godhead.

There are alot of quarks on this site.

I respectfully disagree. Mankind being responsible for knowing about God's existence is demonstrated in showing that he is without excuse in the fact that even the invisible things in nature that declare God is triune (i.e., the Godhead) can be seen in things like atoms, and other things.

The Godhead is clearly seen in creation. It is significant then, that all creation actually consists of three parts, with each of its distinct components of time, space, and matter comprising and pervading the whole universe. Each of these components consists of three parts. Time consists of the past, present, and future. Space has the three dimensions of length, breadth, and width; and matter can exist in three forms; solid, liquid, and gas. The whole electromagnetic spectrum (gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, microwaves, and radio waves) is comprised of three components; an electric field, a magnetic field, and motion. Clearly, God has left His signature on His creation.

Is this a "Deep Space Nine" reference?
DS9 and Alias used to be my favorite shows back in the day.

However, I have a different view on things today.
For it is written:

"...I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ," (Philippians 3:8).

You do realize that the atomic level of the cell is a relatively new discovery? All the other science you mention is as well. Did men only become accountable to God recently? Doesn't it say from the creation of the world?

No. It's a pun. Not a lot of difference in the spelling of quarks and quacks.

When Romans 1:20 says, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, …”
Well, a person can read this verse one of two ways.


Webster’s does define “from” as “out of” (Source).

Meaning, I could say, “For the invisible costume on him from (out of) the creation of technology used in world war 2 is clearly seen by those who have the right special goggles.”

So while the suit or costume is based on technology from World War 2, it does not mean that the costume came from that time exactly.

Anyway, to capture the idea of Romans 1:20:

Imagine walking through a grand cathedral or looking at a beautifully crafted painting. Even though you cannot see the artist or architect who created it, you can understand certain things about them by observing their work. The design of the cathedral might show their intelligence, attention to detail, and creativity. The painting might reveal their ability to capture beauty and express emotion.

Similarly, in the second interpretation of Romans 1:20, although we cannot physically see God, we can understand aspects of His nature—His power, creativity, and divine order—by observing the world He created. The intricate design of nature, from the stars in the sky to the complexity of living organisms, "testifies" to the invisible qualities of God. Just as the work of an artist reflects the artist's skill and vision, creation reflects the attributes of God, making them visible to us.

In this way, nature serves as a canvas that reveals the "invisible things" of God, much like art reveals the characteristics of the artist behind it.

However you choose to view it, the examples you gave weren't common knowledge until recently. So what are examples they would have known from the 1st century?

My point on the creation-based interpretation shows that it may not be a time-based interpretation as you see it. This means, that this verse could be speaking prophetically ahead of our time today whereby we are aware of atoms and other invisible things, and yet, they are detectable by advanced technology for us to examine and compare them to the truth of the Trinity revealed in Scripture.

Daniel 12:4 (KJV)
"But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book,
even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased."


...

Right, but it was written in the 1st century. What in creation that was known at that time would you point to?

I believe the time of the end was referring to the end of the old covenant, so it's still 1st century.

The Scriptures were divinely inspired by God who knows the future. Who says that the New Testament Scriptures were only limited to that audience back then? Paul says they looked through a glass darkly. Daniel says knowledge shall increase.
