Considering answers to those faith-questions we all ask…
Many people, and particularly those of the atheistic persuasion, insist that Christians are living and operating on blind faith. We depend on superstition; we wallow in ignorance; we haven't evolved our brains to the next level yet as they clearly have, and we ignore science and reason because we're afraid to die, and in order to have meaning in our lives. Are they correct?
Having driven a long way, you're near the place you needed to find, and that nice woman on Google Maps tells you to continue for half a mile: your destination will be on the right. How can she be so sure?
We make the mistake of thinking that the animal, the pet, the baby and the beautiful woman derive beauty from their own invention and power.
For professing Christians there are essentially two roads we can take in life, in terms of what we choose to believe. We can follow our own ideas and the voices of the multitude of experts-who between them produce a cacophony of ideas, alternative interpretations, excuses, lies, falsehoods, and wishful thinking-or we can read and believe what the Bible actually says.
Truly the enemy of our souls is subtle, able even to quote the words inspired by our God, and yet to twist them with the goal of the destruction of something or someone, and for the perversion of the word of God.
