1 | Reasons for Rejecting our Witness | John 1:7 | stjones | 22031 | ||
4) No compelling reason to believe in Jesus or his claims - no hard evidence, just myths. 5) The Bible is not credible; it contradicts both science and common sense. Science conquered polio and smallpox while the God of the Bible just let people die and children be confined to iron lungs. Science has been proven to be reliable and useful; the Bible is just fairy tales. I don't believe any of that, of course, but I did once. Peace and grace, Steve |

2 | Reasons for Rejecting our Witness | John 1:7 | Makarios | 22035 | ||
Hello Steve! Thank you for helping us to realize other reasons why people reject the faith.. I was never really put in the position of first rejecting the faith before I accepted Christ, but I would imagine that another such reason for rejecting Christianity would be: 6) I'll put it off until I'm ready or later on in life. I of course don't believe that, but it is a common excuse for not accepting Christ. Thank you Steve! Nolan |

Hi, Nolan; Unfortunately, that's a pretty popular one; the younger you are the more immortal you imagine yourself to be. I had the privilege of preaching on September 23. In talking about Satan's unnamed presence in 1 John 1:5-2:6, I mentioned the 11th. I told the congregation that on that day, hundreds or thousands of people lost forever their chance to escape his clutches. I invited anyone listening who was still thinking and deciding to imagine themselves on an upper floor of the WTC.... Peace and grace, Steve |

Greetings Steve! That was a good example to use (being on the top floor of the WTC and coming up with excuses about decisions that affect eternity). As for the "unnamed presence" of Satan in 1 John 1:5-2:6, I am currently pretty deep in planning a Forum-wide study on 1 John, so we will definitely have to go over that in the study.. Thank you for your insight! Grace to you, Nolan |
