It isn't limited to the Christian world. There are many who believe
various things about how we were created or came to be. There are
those, including myself who believe wholly in the biblical account of
creation. Then there are some who believe that Darwinism (which I
believe is a religion in it's self) is the only plausible answer. In
the realm of how the universe came to be there are those that there was
this Big Bang. On my end of the spectrum, who exactly lit the fuse? I
believe with conviction it was the Lord God Almighty.
I have always believed that if you don't stand for something, you'll
most certainly fall for anything. Forgive the cliché, but if "any way"
will do, "no way" will do just as well. In the world I see only two
possibilities. There is only truth or falsehood. There is no in
between. I don't care how much you care to philosophize the subject.
And man, not God has decided to make his own answers, which quite
frankly has caused even more confusion over who God is, or more
importantly, who He isn't.
Man also has created his own pathways to heaven, refusing to
realize there is but one way to heaven and that way is by the Grace of
God through Christ Jesus.
My own belief's are based on faith and also on historical evidence
being that my own heritage is that of the Anabaptist (Baptist) lineage
and education. We have been around since the end of the first century
and believed basically the same since and have been called by many
names, howbeit none were chosen by us.
So in reference to the title of this article, would you consider
your beliefs strong enough to be examined by the scripture and by
history?

and it's purpose is to defend the faith and the scriptures for what
they really are which I truly believe is the truth. If you feel strong
enough in your beliefs to have them tested by Godly reason and the
scriptures, please feel free to come, make an account, and discuss the
matters. We welcome you and will treat you with kindness and respect
there. |
