We live in a time when the voices of this world are using derision and ridicule to discount the voice of faith. They intend to deride those of us that do not agree with them, particularly in the area of biblically moral truth and the creator God. They hypocritically deny any thought that does not line up with theirs or there pseudo-science. The Apostle Paul wrote in II Corinthians 10:3-5 NLT
“We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ.”
So, we, as disciples of Jesus Christ, armed with the ammunition of His redeeming love, we follow Him and believe His Word. We do not reject true science nor do we exclude any truth. Reality is truth, or truth is reality from God’s perspective, not mans. True science is defined as knowledge; a systematic gathering and building of testable and reproducible data. Science is the systematic attempt to discover and expose nature’s patterns. As believers, we acknowledge our foundation of faith in that which cannot be proven and build on the discovered truths of science and history, but we are not to be ridiculed into silence.
