All other theories are exactly that. Just theories and speculation relying solely on a scientific anology that is hard to prove or disprove. <br /><br />The fact that God or the Holy spirit speaks to us today in numerous ways can only lend credibility that God in fact does exist.<br /><br />Another fact relates to the prophesies in both the Old and New Testament that have came to pass over the last few thousand years. Over 500 have actually been fufilled to date. Israel again becoming a nation in 1947 comes to mind as a recent one. <br /><br />Realizing this, one has to certainly follow the scriptures as Jesus had laid out to His disciples concerning love for others inside of the faith and outside.<br /><br />We may not be able to bring all into the faith but we can certainly witness when we have the chance.photogrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149737419546300220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947901677057635396.post-72930590252199858482010-05-14T15:20:46.260-04:002010-05-14T15:20:46.260-04:00I have the same issues sometimes with doctrinal th...I have the same issues sometimes with doctrinal things. We get so puffed up that we tend to forget that God starts and finishes EVERTHING. The scripture you pointed out is perfect. It is God who gives all men life and breath and everything else. We "fight in love" so others can see and feel what we do, but unless God gives them the hearing ear and the seeing eye it will not be done. By His grace we plant the seed, and by His will the seed grows.

I also totally understand how sometimes those guys can be so darn annoying because they come across like they really know so much, and how what they are saying is so "factual", when what they are saying are accepted facts truly are not. I'm not as knowledgeable as yourself, David, GCT, JD, tinkbell13, or Gandolf. I do believe that it's a good thing to be as knowledgeable as you guys, that we need people who are; it's just that God hasn't made my heart to get excited about those things. I tend to relate to people on the human level, to try to find some connection. Typically there's so much that is common to all of us. Then take it from there. But either way - trying to convince them into the kingdom or trying to relate them into the kingdom - it isn't gonna happen. Like you so beautifully illustrated in your last post here - it's that move of the Holy Spirit that draws people to God.<br /><br />May God be present in a big way in our lives, our writing, and our encounters - may He draw people to Himself.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15692160455833039396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3947901677057635396.post-17602459934314804272010-05-14T06:32:27.186-04:002010-05-14T06:32:27.186-04:00Amen.
