In life we tend to avoid the hard and difficult questions that no one has an answer to. For example who is God? Where did he come from? Does God really care about us? Who is man? And what is truth?? We can spend countless hours and millions on research to try and find out the answer to these simple yet profound questions yet we would never get anywhere close to the answer. If we knew everything we wanted there would be no desire to learn about God because we already “know” everything.
In this course my eyes have been opened to some really hard questions about my society and the world I am living in and it really, truly makes me think were do I fit in and am I trying to make a difference?
Truth- (In the modern dictionary) - The true or actual state of a matter or conformity with fact or reality.
Truth- (Bible) A proven sincerity, verity, honesty and righteousness. John 14:6 “I am the way, the Truth and the Light…”
See the difference?? In the world view truth is whatever you want it to be, but to us Christians Truth as it clearly states is God. Now that would confuse anyone by just looking at it, but Jesus wouldn’t have said this if it meant nothing. Our society is so wrapped up in the fact of “I am a free person I can do what I want” and people are too afraid to think what might actually be out there that is bigger then us. This is scary because we are no longer in control and we tend to love being in control.
Truth simply is God. No way around it straight forward, in your face if you want. I know for a fact God will be there for me and always has always has been.
I think one reason society have some what an “issue” with God is because they cannot wrap their head around that an all consuming God up there in the sky somewhere knows everyone by name and loves everyone and everything! I mean im even so overwhelmed that my creator would care about little old Nicole!!
