I
learned quickly with our first set of kids to not promise anything.
Life has a way of interfering with plans. A sick kid. A flat tire.
Rain.
That’s
not the way it is with our Creator. The Bible is full of promises and
our Creator delivers on every single one of them. In fact, we are
told that we can come “Boldly and with confidence to the throne of
grace and receive grace and find mercy in our times of need.”
Now
I need to ask, if you know that God does not, indeed cannot break His
promise, if you know that He says "Come without fear to present your
requests," why do you hesitate?
Could it be that you don’t actually
know your Heavenly Father as well as you let on? Have you spent so
little time in obedience that you don’t know if you can believe
your Creator? Are you trying so hard to be in control of your life
that you don’t know you can give it all to Him?
We
humans can’t be trusted.
That’s
true.
To
live as though our Creator God can’t be trusted is an insult that
may be fine for atheists, but it’s just plain wrong for someone who
calls h/herself a believer.

ReplyDeleteThat’s true.

What's ironic is that your belief in God, Jesus and Christianity in general depends entirely on humans, be it yourself of others. The beliefs you have are not supported by objective truths; your religious beliefs are entirely based on the human interpretations of certain events. If humans cannot be trusted, your religious beliefs certainly cannot be trusted.
"The beliefs you have are not supported by objective truths."
ReplyDeleteUnlike atheists who believe that material things (even a universe) can just pop into existence.
Unlike atheists who believe that things can begin to exist without an external cause
Unlike atheists who believe that matter can have an infinite regress of cause
Unlike atheists who believe matter exists from an eternal infinite
Unlike atheists who believe that our universe is just one of an infinite number of universe,
All these um, how do you put it? Oh ya, beliefs that are supported by objective truths?
Could you highlight some of these "objective" facts that lead to the conclusions that atheists reach, especially point to the facts that say this is and only is a material universe? Can you do that for me? Yes, I know there is maybe .0001% of atheists who claim that no supernatural force exists as well as there IS a supernatural force. And it's these people upon which Hugo rests his case that I'm wrong about what atheists believe.
Not one shred of evidence exists to support any of these atheist beliefs. Yet irony of ironies, atheist DO reject the beliefs of Christians that actually result FROM objective truths that have been observed, tested and verified by science. And the only reason atheists reject the science that supports these beliefs is because the scientific evidence points to the existence of a Creator God.
And since you imply that it's wrong to form beliefs based on human interpretation of these scientific facts, just exactly where do atheist beliefs come from – non human interpretations?
Not a single quote; just strawmen and lies.
ReplyDeleteGood job Rod!
