Romans 1:20 - For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen

NIV For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
KJV For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
NASBFor since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.
Romans 1:20

Commentary

Much like examining a painting reveals aspects of its creator, studying science and our world reveal to a limited extent God's nature. The size and expanse of the universe and the uniformity of its physical laws clearly reveal God's power and authority over all creation, and the extraordinary complexity and ingenuity of life reveal God's indescribable intelligence and wisdom. In addition, the regularity of seasons and the capacity of the earth to produce crops and other benefits for all people show God's care and love for mankind (Acts 14:17). In fact, modern science has even shown that every detail of earth's design and every natural process were perfectly crafted for the benefit of life-if our planet were a different size or resided at a different distance from the sun or lacked the magnetic field surrounding it or if water did float when it froze or light traveled at a different speed, life could not exist. Therefore, people who deny God's existence can not claim ignorance, since they must actively ignore the voice of nature all around them.
