Creation shows that someone other than us had to come up with the first of everything. Just as a family starts out with a mother and father, we can be sure an even higher intelligence is behind that which we could never make. I realize this seems too simple, but a most obvious example is a banana. Who could‘ve thought of a packaged food like that?
Or a nose with all of its possibilities to bring in oxygen, detect a fragrance, or balance our features. One of a ca-JILLION examples.2- I noticed that some believers act all sure of themselves and don’t behave according to their belief. Isn’t that hypocrisy?
Yes. However, that doesn’t nullify the fact that it is the Way. To be sure of something means that something’s been proven that is more compelling than self-discovery. One is humbled to the fact that they know something for sure, but being human in content as well, some of us mess up with the Christ example. New believers are worse than most. They are too excited, just like a baby, and don‘t know what to do with all the energy.
3- I can’t believe that God wrote the Bible. It contradicts itself. Why would he appoint simple men to write it and take the credit for its content?
God wanted to have a personal relationship with men. He made us with free will so that we could choose HIM after we are drawn by His very Holy Spirit. Only until that moment of acceptance of His Son and by repenting, can we possibly know that truth. It’s a guarantee. I always tell others in my ministries that the best way to know about the bible and its uncompromising truth is to take a bible history class or a study with others. Let your eyes fall upon the facts without being coaxed or misled. Find out WHY folks think it contradicts itself, and why it is truly the most profound testament to a perfect ordered universe
4- I always think that Christians are empty-headed or narrow minded and should think for themselves instead of looking for a scape goat, or instant life jacket.
Aside from being unique, those who think for themselves are telling the rest of the world that self is enough. That is not faith. Faith comes only by hearing the Word. Otherwise, it is a dead lock futile argument.
Indesputable Truths that Exceed Us
You can’t believe in God if you don’t think anything came from anyone but you.
In that reservation, you’ll need to come up with the recipe for a banana, a nose, and
other amazing discoveries that we take for granted. In fact, we use them for our
abusive needs. For instance, we know that the derivatives for hard drugs come from the earth, but not in pure form.
We usually have to do something to it to make it sharply felt by the body.
The human anatomy- the personal universe, which has fibers and functions that
never was authored by a person is purer in plan and form.
You can’t accept being forgiven if you think that it had to come from yourself first.
To err is human, but to forgive is divine. (anonymous)
Lastly, if you are tired of cliché overly religious terms BUT………you really want
To know if you are selected by God for eternal life. You must first do the following:
Consider this quote-
I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is. Bishop T.D. Jakes "8 Second Prayer."
Just repeat this prayer and see how God moves.
"Lord, I love you and I need you, come into my heart, and bless me, my family, my home, and my friends, in Jesus' name. Amen."
~ Acknowledge by small prayer to God that you’re not sure He exists. Be honest.
A Few Minutes And You’re In Eternal Life With God
~ Tell Him that should He exist, to show Himself to you in some way.
You can know for sure by some signs.
1--- someone like me is bringing the message to you.
2--- you’ve thought about it so much that you are willing to see
3--- you’re very smart and realize that you could be smarter than
most church people who are leaning on something that isn’t as evident
to you.
~ Tell God that you have heard that Jesus isGod. That you know that He’s got a triple
Nature, including the incarnate Jesus Christ who died a horrifying death for the
Sins of all. Believe it for now, or ask for His governing power to affirm this.
~ Ask Him to forgive you of all your sins, including the ones you’re not sure
that you’ve committed. This is called “grace”, which is unmerited favor. You
can’t do anything on your own to get it. It’s a heavenly gift, not a human one.
(Actually, it’s His Love--)>
<~ Go tell someone that you did this. Leave a message for me here if you have a
question,
But the Bible says, “ That God gave His only Son that whosoever calls on Him
Will not perish but have eternal life”.
Give 4 reasons why He’d lie, and you’ll
Be included as the second god.
This will be a progressive post for those who are interested, so bear with me. Also, this is your chance to post a question that I may add. Feel free, but be respectful, please. _I reserve the right to delete any message that doesn't comply with my intent to inform and help you understand whether they are mine or someone else's. Discussion is one thing, but confusing debate can be done on another ground. Thank you
