AMPLIFIED 2015 | James 2:19 You believe that God is one; you do well [to believe that]. The demons also believe [that], and shudder and bristle [in awe-filled terror--they have seen His wrath]! [Deut 6:4; 11:13-21; Mark 12:29] |
Subject: Belief in God? |
Bible Note: Ngop, If a person knows that there is a God, then don't they believe that there is a God? On the one hand you say that it takes a revelation from God Himself to believe that there is a God, but on the other hand you say that one can know there is a God by looking around. Maybe I am misunderstanding your point. Do you also consider creation to be revelation from God Himself? If so, then it makes sense to me. As for Darwin's theory, I don't consider that evidence. It is a theory. What is the evidence that there is a God? Does it take faith to believe in Darwin's theory; does it take faith to believe that there is a God who created all? About the individual in the wilderness, I understand that they must hear the gospel from one who is preaching it. But, what leads them to believe that there is a God to search for on the first place? Does it take faith to believe that all the world around them points to a higher being? God bless. |
