Considering answers to those faith-questions we all ask…

I don't mean to shake anyone's faith or confidence in experts. Many ministers are doing a fantastic job in a difficult world, and let's face it, we all get things wrong. We're all fallible and limited. That fact doesn't disprove the gospel or the central teachings of the Bible which are easily defined if we're reading it honestly. Christ died for our sins, he rose again on the third day and he's coming back to put the world right.
As a one-time left-leaning, socialist Labour Party voter in the United Kingdom, I regularly watched and listened to news reports from around the world, and sometimes sensed inconsistencies in the reporting. It didn't always ring true. However, as is common in fallen human nature, I accepted the things I wanted to accept and that which I was expected to accept from the "experts", without question.
One of the greatest stories of history is now largely ignored, not only in secular circles but in the Church. Shame on the Church! I for one will proudly and loudly stand up and defend the Biblical Flood - worldwide and catastrophic.
It's heart-warming to remember that I grew up in the land of tea-times and time lords, Big Ben, hot-cross-buns and Queen Elizabeth II. In that kinder, culturally richer world I knew a lovely English gentleman who, always anxious to be punctual, would spur people on by politely saying, "Time and tide, time and tide". This is an abstract of the pithy proverb, "Time and tide wait for no man", which apparently pre-dates not only Shakespeare but the modern English language.
Throughout the gospels Jesus Christ is seen to give sight to the blind, make the lame walk, raise the dead, walk on water and feed thousands. Today many Christians are determined to hold to the notion that they are doing miracles in their churches and on the streets, when in fact they are belittling the name of Christ, the glory of Christ and the true power of God.
