No God (3 of 10)

Psalm 14
If you have a bible with you this morning, we're going to be in Psalm 14. I've been telling you the last couple of weeks that the Psalms are poems that were accompanied by music. In other words, they are songs. The nation of Israel used these songs as a hymnal for corporate worship.
It occurred to me that many of you didn't grow up in church and aren't familiar with what a hymnal is. If you don't know what a hymnal is just think of the Psalms kind of like a playlist on Spotify.
If you don't know what a hymnal or a playlist on Spotify are, then just think in terms of a mixed tape we used to make. Remember those? You put a bunch of your favorite jams on a cassette tape and listen to it on your cassette player or if you were really cool your Walkman.
If you don't know what a hymnal or a playlist on Spotify or a mixed are then think in terms of a juke box. That big collection of records you could choose from and play again and again.
If you don't know what a hymnal, or playlist a on Spotify, or a mixed tape, or a juke box are then someone should have taken the car keys away from you by now. Hahaha. I'm just kidding. Don't write me an email. Well, you wouldn't write me an email, you'd write me a letter. But that's beside the point. I better move on before I get myself in more trouble.
Let's just right in to the text of Psalm 14 because there is so much ground to cover. (READ)
1. THE DEFIANT HEART IN FOOLS.
V1a: ''The fool has said in his heart, ''There is no God''.'' ? See the words 'there is'? In my bible, they are italicized meaning they are not in the original writings and have been added by the translators to help it read more smoothly. In the Hebrew, it literally says, ''The fool said in his heart, 'No God!''' or 'No God for me!' or 'Let there be no God.' It's a battle cry of rebellion. It is a gesture of defiance.
Often this passage used to talk about the foolishne ...
