Musings and Aphorisms

Unequal yoking with unbelievers also refers to staying in a church that teaches contrary to the essentials of Jesus and the gospel in any way. 

Maybe the reason we'll give account for every idle word we speak is that we are to be perfect as He is perfect, and every single word He speaks counts. 

If believers didn't still struggle with sin, you know what we'd do? We'd start thinking maybe the cross hadn't been all that necessary. 

Yes--more tolerable judgment for Sodom and Gomorrah than for those who reject Messiah, because in so doing you reject the remedy for all the rest.

We can't scientifically prove God, because (a) do we really think our theories, experiments, and equipment could ever wrap around the vastness of any God worthy of the title (regardless of how good and God-given science is), (b) science by definition studies the physical and natural world, not the spiritual, and (c) if we could have this kind of proof, wouldn't it undermine the faith God requires? 

IOW, if we can prove "God," we may have hold of something else entirely, PLUS proof is not in our best interest. 

OTOH, mathematicians have tried to prove Him and say they have come astoundingly close. For certain it can be said they have not disproved Him, and--though I have not delved into this yet--have apparently demonstrated extreme likeliness that He exists. Fair enough. The Scripture says we can seek and find Him, and that He speaks to us through His creation. The Heavens, though physical and natural, do declare the glory of God.
