The Invisible Things of God are Seen?



Question:
Romans 1:20 = "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen..." Okay if it's clearly seen, it ain't invisible. Am I missing something here?


My Reply:
It might make more sense if you try reading it from the New Living Translation.
The scripture is talking about those who see the Lord's works and miracles everywhere, but choose not to acknowledge them as being from God. Though the Lord is invisible to the eye, the works of His hands are VERY visible. The passage also mentions that since the beginning of the world, people who saw these things and knew that they were to glorify God, chose not to. So in their own choosing to deny God's glory, they're guilty.
