2 | HOW DO YOU KNOW HE NOT A BELIEVER | Gen 11:6 | BradK | 200257 | ||
Hello Blueeyes, I know of no evidence from the book itself nor of his published life that give any indication he ever accepted the Lord. There are also much worldy wisdom contained within his writing that does not square with Biblical truth. Simply because one "makes a lot of sense" does not mean they are a believer and have placed their faith in the Lord Jesus. The Biblical standard is John 17:3 - "This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." Spekaing the Truth in Love, BradK |

Hello blueeyes, I think you're misinterpreting what I'm trying to say. Judging his eternal destiny is not my main point. However, I'm basing my opinion on what's James has stated in comparison to what the Word of God says:-)(John 17:17) My main challenge is this: His writing is steeped in humanism, not Biblical truth! Here's a few points to consider- you be the judge: 1. He never gives glory to God, nor honors the name of Jesus Christ; 2. The premise and title of the book are based on Prov. 23:7, "For as he thinks within himself, so he is." To this he attributes on page 3 of "Thought and Character" to being an "aphorism". It is not attributed to being Biblical or even Biblical truth. He could have assumed his audience knew, but why not say so- if one were a Christian? I find that a bit odd; 3. On page 5 of the same chapter he states, "Man is made or unmade by himself." While I understand what he's saying, it's not quite true in light of what God's Word says (Gen. 1:1, John 15:5); 4. Again on page 5, further down he states, "By right choice and true application of thought, man ascends to the Divine Perfection..." This is completely in opposition to biblical truth. Man never acheives "divine perfecton". It is foreign to scripture! (Rom. 3:10-11,23, etc.) It is these types of statements that lead me to conclude he may have been a philosopher/writer, but not a Bible-believing Christian. You ask yourself: Are these the type of statements that a true believer would make? Why do you defend the man with such vigor? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
