Where do you
stand?
11/23/15
Have you
seriously thought about the veracity of the Bible and whether or not
the God of the Bible is real and true? Well do you have an opinion
based on feelings and what seems understandable and right to the
human mind – in this case yours? Could you defend your position?
Either way, the Bible claims and stories contain way more than a
quick briefing can afford. It's claims are quite astounding and have
the potential to change lives – yes and save lives. If these
claims are not true then don't you think you owe it to the rest of
the world to be able to give an accounting of why you disagree or
simply don't believe?
Is truth
something that should be taught to our children and to all people?
How can we ever hope for peace or change for the better if we don't
know what truth is? Many have claimed that the Bible is the true
Word of God. I think we should have an informed opinion about it.
If it's false, then it's a pack of lies. But if true.............
it is the staple of life.
Going over
someone else's opinion is second-hand knowledge, which is unreliable
at best. I don't think we do ourselves justice to let someone else do
the thinking for us. There is a prevailing attitude in our own
country of independence (we like to think we make our own decisions
based on our own knowledge and intelligence). How can we justify
convicting or exonerating the truth or deception of the Bible without
careful deliberation and a study of it's claims? How can I let
someone else do my thinking for me on a matter of such reputed
importance?
