FOR KIDS 15 AND YOUNGER - THE INSULATION My “House” of beliefs is almost finished. The next thing to be installed is the insulation. After that will be the security system, and then all I’ll need is the key to enter my “house”.
Insulation: Material to prevent transfer of cold, heat, or sound. That’s the dictionary definition. However, my insulation is intended to prevent the transfer of error. My insulation is Truth.
“What is truth?” Jesus was asked that question by the Roman Governor of Judea (in Israel), Pontius Pilate (pie let; not pill ah tay). Jesus didn’t answer him. Pilate wouldn’t have believed Him any more than the Pharisees, the Jews’ religious leaders, or any more than Darwinists and Liberals do today.
Truth: Sincerity in action, character and utterance; the body of real things, events, and facts. Jesus expanded on the dictionary definition: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father except through Me”. Mercy me! How narrow-minded! How un-multicultural! How politically incorrect!
A recent article relegating God’s truth to the scrap heap was printed last week. Under “Origins of Man”: “Before Lucy, there was Ardi”. Story: “Ardi opens a window to ‘the early evolutionary steps that our ancestors took after we diverged from our common ancestor with chimpanzees’”
It’s amazing how “science” promotes nonsense and continues to ignore and contradict God!
This is a great example of man trying to be the Creator, not by actually creating, but by substituting their reason and “scientific” explanation for God’s explanation of how human life actually came to be. In other words, substituting supposition and “evidence” for truth.
The scientists don’t attempt to tell exactly “how” things happened, because they can’t. And they certainly don’t say “why” things happened. I’m not sure it ever occurs to them that there HAS to be a reason “why”.
Think about it. IF we are created beings, not evolved from apes, why did God go to all of the trouble to create? When He decided to create man (Gen 1:26), He also knew that man would fall, and would need a Redeemer, because we cannot redeem ourselves. So why did He bother?
Why would Jesus leave Heaven to spend 33 years on this miserable earth for the express purpose of redeeming God’s creation, and suffer agonizing torture and brutal death?
The only reason that makes any sense is because He cares about you so much that He wanted to give you an opportunity to escape the misery and pain of hell. You are that important!
Darwinists and others deal with this simply by diminishing the concept of God, Creation, Jesus, the Bible, Heaven and Hell. It seems to me that they equate error with truth.
Do scientists give a genealogy of “Ardi” Of course not, they can’t.
Genealogy: An account of the descent of a person, family, or group from an ancestor or from older forms.
Darwinism does not, cannot, supply a genealogy from the “first simple cell” to anything else, or from man back to anything else. However, God supplies three genealogies to confirm the Truth of His Word.
In the Old Testament, there’s a genealogy from Adam to Abraham, listing hundreds of families within the genealogy (1st Chronicles [3rd Kings in some Bibles] Chapters 1-9).
In the first book in the New Testament, Matthew starts off with the genealogy from Abraham to Jesus. (Mt1:17)
Not covinced? Luke gives the genealogy from Jesus all the way back to Adam! (Luke3:23-38)
Jesus is not only Truth (John14:6), He is the Word of God (John1:1-2), so the Word of God is true. And the Word is powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword (Heb:4-16)
When I compare what Jesus said and what John and Paul wrote, with what Darwin wrote there really is no comparison. The written word of God has existed for thousands of years, and has stood the test of time, reason, and logic; unlike the writing of Darwin which has not been, and never can be, proven, and is contrary to reason and logic. Why do Darwinists, and liberals, persist in their error? WOB D WOD (What One Believes, Determines What One Does).
Yes, I like my insulation - a lot!
PAUL SAID TO “EXPOSE THE WORKS OF DARKNESS” (Eph 5:11)
