I was raised a christian and trained a scientist. At middle age I had a conversion experience when I realized that I didn't genuinely believe in miracles or spirit world or God. Science doesn't disprove God so I am not an atheist in that sense. however if God exists, I suddenly have dozens of questions that are nicely absent in a natural world. I remain open to questions of faith and entered this blog to ask Perry why God raised Jesus (sinner) and nobody else (saved). The debt of death, if paid means Jesus should be dead. So your second option is correct, science makes sense. But I am no longer a believer. Chris. I was raised a christian and trained a scientist.

Are you a scientist investigating faith or a believer coming to the conclusion that science makes more sense? Chris Hi Martin

I’m not sure where you’re coming from.

Are you a scientist investigating faith or a believer coming to the conclusion that science makes more sense?

Chris

Even if the Bible was correct, following it loyally is problematic. This is obvious since there are so many interpretations such as what is Hell and how old is earth etc. Clearly the effect of gaining guidance from this book is problematic. Gaining guidance from any other scripture is problematic for the same reason. Accepting what you learn from a science textbook has a similar problem that you may trust its accuracy blindly. Test ALL things. (As good scientists continue to do.) Checking your videos the speaker criticizes the bible as erroneous to support his idea that another scripture is infallible.

This was settled long ago by Elijah the prophet of the God of Abraham. Elijah challenged the prophets of baal to a contest of setting light to a sacrificial pyre. The 450 baal prophets danced and pleaded with their god (1 Kings 18:26 holy bible). They cut themselves until blood gushed out of them, all to no avail. Elijah simply said "Hear me, O Lord, that this people may know that You are God so they will turn their hearts back to You". The fire of the Lord fell and consumed Elijah's sacrifice (1 Kings 18:38). So it is no longer necessary to "prove whose God is true". Chris Hi Andrie

It is no longer necessary to kill each other over which is the true God anymore. This was settled long ago by Elijah the prophet of the God of Abraham.

Elijah challenged the prophets of baal to a contest of setting light to a sacrificial pyre.

The 450 baal prophets danced and pleaded with their god (1 Kings 18:26 holy bible). They cut themselves until blood gushed out of them, all to no avail. Elijah simply said “Hear me, O Lord, that this people may know that You are God so they will turn their hearts back to You”.

The fire of the Lord fell and consumed Elijah’s sacrifice (1 Kings 18:38). So it is no longer necessary to “prove whose God is true”.

Chris Hi Rex

Psalm 138:2 (KJV) says, “I will worship toward Thy holy temple, and praise Thy name for Thy lovingkindness and for Thy truth: for Thou hast magnified Thy Word above all Thy name.”

That seems to concur with what you’re saying and if you dig a little deeper, which I’m sure you have, you will see that Jesus is “The Word” of God.
