Philosophical Systems And Science Can Be Harmonious Much Like The Holy Bible With Technology

Some people will tell me “If you would like to be a Christian then that is OK, but why do you `born again` types need to be so into it?”
That is an excellent question; first, as Christians we think that God created everything; then Jesus was tortured and killed for the wron things we do.
If someone made you, then gave their life for you, You Too would like to give up all for him, particularly if you would suffer forever if you didn’t. There must be something more than just a ‘Sunday’ Christian experience.
On radio I once heard a caller request of a professor from Oxford “So you have indicated that Jesus did exist and the Bible is reliable but why do you have to take it further, by idolizing Him now?”
Ok, their are two aspects to look at in answering this :-
First, the obvious conclusion – seeing that from history, archeology and literature as well as Bible history, it is relatively easy to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Jesus did exist and that what He has said in the Bible is reliable, this then dictates that we must obey His words. How can a person declare that they believe the Bible to be truth, but then not do as it says? It is like declaring the law of gravity to be true, and then doing things contrary to it like leaping off a 32 story tower. The Bible says He died for our wrongdoing and He tells us to follow and love Him or else we must reject the evidence and facts in addition to Him.
And in the second instance, there comes a time when God needs that our Faith must overtake the scientific evidence, (‘faith’ is the absolute belief in God, being convinced) We’re to be totally devoted to Him, being convinced that He is God over beyond the scientific evidence.
Through history God has only unveiled Himself in a relatively small way, He will not give mankind the absolute indisputable proof, for where would the faith be? (If a volcano was about to erupt beside your home, you wouldn’t sit down and conclude if to flee, you just would. In in an identical way if God showed Himself to mankind completely, so that there was no uncertainty in anybody’s mind about the future, people wouldn’t sit and reason out if to submit and serve God, they just would. There would be a rush for tickets, not love – it would not be a genuine choice for God.) For God is a god of Faith and He lives by faith as a way of life and that is how we all need to live.
As shown through Bible history, He’ll not offer the human race with the complete indisputable evidence writes Neil Baulch from the Bible Timeline website for wherever would the trust be in that?
