John 14:6

I have recently observed a very depressing lesson about humanity and the sheer depravity of the human condition. When Our Father states that man is in enmity with Him, He is absolutely telling the truth.

I was just told by a self-described “former believer” (in Christianity) that they “didn’t choose” to not believe in God. It wasn’t their choice to deny Christ, you see. Of course, after a little correspondence, it is clear that to this person, “choice” has very little to do with anything. Homosexuality? That’s not a choice. Believing in God? Nope, not a choice, either.

I’m sure there are many other things this individual has no “choice” to believe in.

I am still stunned by the comment, and I only write this now in a vain attempt to make some kind of sense out of it. To be frank, it is the biggest single cop-out I have ever heard. And I’m sure they will say that “choice” is not as clear-cut as I believe it to be. Yet another cop-out, and frankly, I’m done with it. And this is going to be a rambling post, jumping all over the place, because I am still unable to get my head around someone not being able to choose to not believe in something.

So now atheism is genetic?

Don’t you find it funny how whenever you disagree with someone, they inevitably tell you that you “don’t understand” or you are “wrong” without anything to back it up? It’s just assumed you are wrong. Talk about arrogance! Their position is always that you are so misguided because you believe in God that you have to be told you are wrong and then you will come to see the great “light”.

I believe:

1. God is real
2. Jesus is God who became flesh and dwelt among Men so that we might be reconciled to The Father
3. The Bible is the total and complete Word of the Living God, inerrant in its original languages, and the only Book God has inspired
4. Those who don’t believe the Bible because an English translation is not perfect simply don’t want to believe, regardless of proof or evidence
5. Homosexuality is not a birthright, it is a choice
6. Abortion is murder
7. I can’t tell anyone they are going to hell – only God has the ability and moral right to judge the heart
8. Only God can change an individual’s heart
9. Man has no power to affect his own Salvation – it is a sovereign and miraculous work of Holy God
10. The Rapture of the Church is imminent
11. Israel is still the Apple of God’s Eye and has not been replaced by the Church
12. People can take one verse out of the Bible and think they have a point
13. Adultery, fornication, lying, stealing, cheating, drunkedness, and pride are all sins, and just as “bad” of one as homosexuality
14. All sins are equally vile in God’s eyes

I love the Lord. That’s simply it. If you don’t believe in Jesus, keep it to yourself. Really. I understand you believe that you have every reason in this corrupted world to not believe the Bible. I’m sure you sleep very well at night with this nugget of “knowledge”. That is your choice, and you choose to believe man over God every day you are alive. That act is a choice – your choice – and your responsibility.

I am not penning this blog to convert atheists into believers – there is more than enough evidence and proof out there for those who truly want to seek the True and Living God. I am writing this blog to express myself, as I live in a free country (for now), with freedom of speech guaranteed in the Constitution (f0r now). I am also writing this blog to tell everyone who has the eyes to read that time is running out. Soon the skies will be filled with the Glory of God. Soon the Trumpet of God shall sound and the world will change forever.

As a result, I do not need input from said atheists on how to improve my witness. If you think I’m wrong, kindly keep it to yourself. Or write your own blog. Or think about what happens when the candle that is your life is snuffed out after 60 or 70 years of burning. Do you really believe that is the end?

Nothing atheists, agnostics, heathens, blasphemers, or followers of false faiths say will ever convince me that my God is a lie or doesn’t exist. I don’t care if you think you have evidence. Just remember that fallible men are proclaiming this “evidence”, and many of them want to disprove the existence of a Creator. But go ahead and continue to eat the garbage they feed you. To accept evolution takes a whole lot more faith than believing God created it all.

Evolution is an insult to human intelligence.

I sleep very well at night.

God bless and keep you all.
