In Christianity we have both subjective and objective evidence for the existence of God but I think people should be seekers and locate their own like Hugh Ross did if they truly have a scientific perspective that they look at the world from. Not everyone has that perspective but you can borrow that evidence demand as an excuse for wasting time so you don’t actually seek God.
Hugh Ross actually did his own evidence comparison and satisfied his own criteria that God exists but then he did it as a young science prodigy and maybe he was less self deceptive than most.
Why seek evidence if the internal scales have already been set to devalue it.
Besides God already gave the evidence and says He did in Romans 1.
God bless and good hunting, Dan!
]]>In the English Standard Version in Romans 7 in the chapter entitled Released from the Law it says:
4 Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God. 5 For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death. 6 But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.
The above doesn’t mean that gays don’t have to change. They have to be born again like everyone else. Cf. John 3.
The failure of a group of Christians to interpret God’s Word and follow Christ’s command to love their neighbor doesn’t negate the truth.
We’re all sinners and all have fallen short of the glory of God.
Your first human right is your right to be born again that Christ died on the Cross to purchase for every man, woman and child ever born.
Funny how the world likes to overlook this great spiritual right to put ahead lesser human rights.
But God’s priorities are greater than people’s.
Blessings on everyone reading!
From Ten Biblical Reasons Against Abortion on biblebelievers.com comes this statement:
What is an “infant?” Get the answer in your mind and keep it there for a moment. Do you have it? Okay, please consider Job 3:16: “Or as an hidden untimely birth I had not been; as infants which never saw light.” Did you see that? Job referred to unborn children as INFANTS. Not fetuses! Not masses of tissue! INFANTS! In God’s eyes, an unborn child is a living human baby. God never says once that an unborn child is anything less than a human being.
People used to know to protect innocent people from harm but these days people lack natural affection as the Bible calls it.
When did a woman’s right to her own body preempt God’s right to every person ever conceived. God owns everyone by right of creation.
Perhaps the abortion rate is increasing because no one is reading their bible and getting born again. Once you’re born again God uses the bible to build a right spirit in people and that spirit manifest the fruit of the spirit of which one of those fruits is the spirit of self control.
If more people were born again and raised God’s way then maybe they would have the self control to avoid getting pregnant.
Why does everyone assume reacting and making concessions to human weakness is the only option?
Follow Jesus and let God make a whole new person out of you. Get born again and let Him train you up according to His ways and don’t judge this by other people’s results. Submit to His way and never give up until He produces results in you.
From Psalm 119: Let no sin rule over me.
]]>By the way, yes I am exhorting you to more effort…if you’ve fallen can’t you get back up again….so no need to argue with me. I hope you see my point. Enlightenment is sought. Like any truly good relationship is. You don’t argue people into enlightenment.
