Today's Christian Insights

1:
  A Suggestion: Put Jesus on trial.  Be judge, jury, or whatever you want.  Then go through the questions.  Why Jesus? Why Christianity? What is the same? What is different? Do miracles exist? What is a miracle? What did Jesus say about Death? What did Jesus say about suffering?

  Put Jesus on trial.  I put it to you, that Jesus stands up to the requirements of our courts.  Evidence is there.

And stay away from the Zeitgeist claims, even non-Christians think it a farce.

2: 
   You know a Christian's struggling with faith when they state, "My God isn't like that"

   Because this suggests a personal impression of the Divine, and exhibits the greatest type of identity crisis of Modern Man.

   We are not to coerce God into our desires and whalms, We are to listen to God and seek His Will. Prayer is for listening more than aiding our qualms.

   God is not a response to you, you are to respond to God. The identity crisis can be stated as such : I conceive God, instead it should state God granted me the chance to conceive Him.

   Or in other words : They put themselves ahead of creation, instead of creation ahead of themselves.

   It is why, for the life of me, the modern woman can not see that believing in eliminating the very creation in their womb ----- is immoral.

                                                              They say, it is MY right.

Have they thought that the only reason it is THEIR RIGHT, is because they were given the RIGHT TO BE BORN?

 The Crux about AUTONOMY : The ethics of an autonomous lifestyle, is one of the most selfless ways of life (it puts the burden on oneself and not others) ... A philosophy of autonomy, however, is one where the means and the ends are me, myself, and I, resulting towards a mush of indifference for the other.

 COULD NEW AGE BELIEF BE UNIVERSALLY SIGNIFICANT IF THE IMPAIRED (MENTALLY RETARDED) CAN NOT REACH A HUMAN POTENTIAL ..... HOW FAIR AND JUST COULD SUCH A PHILOSOPHY BE?

TRY TO IMAGINE THE WORST CASE SCENARIO : PRISONER OF WAR, WAR, OR PARALYSIS. 

 DOES YOUR THREE BIG QUESTIONS STILL STAND: WHO AM I? WHAT IS GOOD FOR ME? AND IS THERE A GOD?
