Hello CTD, As the Lord would have it, I was looking for some more information/ Devotions, etc, regarding "CREATION"...and He directed my heart to this firstly.  -------- "Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye." Colossians 3:13 The Answer to Arguments -- By: Max Lucado In the Grip of Grace ~~~~UNITY doesn't begin in examining others but in examining self. Unity begins not in demanding that others change, but in admitting that we aren't so perfect ourselves.... The answer to arguments, [disagreements, misunderstandings]? Acceptance. The first step to unity? Acceptance. Not agreement, acceptance. Not unanimity, acceptance. Not negotiation, arbitration, or elaboration. Those might come later but only after the first step, acceptance. ~~~ Therefore, I 'accept' your post(s), and ask your forgiveness where I have misunderstood your insight. Thank you and Blessings, JESUS IS LORD!  Abishag ~ Hi Abishag. I'm sorry, but I must've scrolled right past your post. I missed it, anyway. Your post didn't offend me - I was just afraid we weren't understanding each other. I have no dispute with you, of course - only those who would compromise truth. I really don't know enough about BG to determine how much he was repeating things that sounded nice to him, or how much thought he put into some of the things he said. I'm not out to criticize him personally; I just try to communicate what's right when I see things that are wrong. The atheist loves to say "God? What God? I don't see any God." No encouragement is needed, nor should any be given. Scripture says those who feign stupidity in this manner are without excuse. God's handiwork is all around; one cannot escape it. Neither has any human ever been born too stupid to properly interpret it. That degree of stupidity may only be reached with a good deal of hard work, if at all. There is tag-along line of reasoning: "faith is required to detect God". They, and some well-meaning Christians also, confuse the issue of salvation with the issue of detection. Satan knows God exists, and he doesn't need much "faith" to reach the conclusion. Neither did Cain or Balaam. Neither does anyone else. If 'faith' be as the scoffer defines it, far more "faith" is required to deny God's existence.
Dark Matter + Dark Energy = Dark Truth"We find that such evidence demonstrates that the ID argument is dependent upon setting a scientifically unreasonable burden of proof for the theory of evolution." - Judge Jones Kitzmiller case http://www.talkreason.org/articles/Falsify.cfm"To Compel A Man To Furnish Funds For The Propagation Of Ideas He Disbelieves And Abhors Is Sinful And Tyrannical." - Thomas Jefferson "And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with his wrath?" - Thomas Jefferson
