Is Creationism Science?

[gray wolf]

I cannot say I have a relationship with Christ.  I did once ask Him to come into my heart, but no faith grew in the following years.  Now I experience Him through the Word.  His presence reverberates in the Gospels and He speaks to me over the ages.  I will not deny Him and that He has great influence over me.  I see Him in others, even nonchristians, as CS Lewis noted.

What would I like to know?  I was pretty sure I was clear, but in case I was not ... Describe your personal relationship with Christ.

 

I consider myself to be a child of Christ.  I am not sure if I really believe in God, but I do believe in Christ.  Does this seem strange?

Don't

 

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6

 

Kid Yourself

 

And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Galatians 4:6

 

You Can't Have One

 

Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 1 John 2:22

 

Without The Other

 

Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. 1 John 2:23

 

You

 

Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life. These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you. 1 John 2:24-26

 

See

 

And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: Ephesians 3:9

My wife warned me that I should not be posting on this website.  I should probably stay away, rather than bring up my doubting Thomas questions.

[...] bring up my doubting Thomas questions.

Doubting my questions???

Of course I am outraged that someone has doubts on what I say (just kidding). Isn't it that the ToS say "(1) never disagree with Thomas T, and if you do, go back to (1)"... ? Or did I miss anything? But luckily I still can contain my strong feelings   

 

Have a nice day,

Thomas

Why not learn instead of doubting?  We all come from doubting days, but as we study and our faith grows, He becomes much clearer while our doubt fades away!

 

Truth is a hard pill to swallow for some.  They would rather not hear it then deal with it.

Faith is an antidote to doubting for many people.  You are basically leaving the doubt unresolved- -  to labor on without resolution.   It may work for awhile, but it can rear its ugly head at any time.

Gray wolf- might I encourage you to do a search for Chuck Missler on Youtube and listen to some of his teachings.  He is a former physicist and has a way of explaining Christ and the Bible that definitely appeal to other scientifically minded individuals.
 
A good place to start would be his study of Genesis since he explains several things this topic has brought up.  Here is part 1 and I am hopeful you'll watch the other 2 parts. 
 
I also think it's sad yet funny your wife warned you against talking to Christians.  Lord help us.

Your pointing to your fault. Faith is not about you, but about God. I have trusted faith for many years and it never has come to a bad end. Only when I take hold of the issue again is when things start turning bad. There are some things that we will never resolve and have to give the idea of resolving them up.

You have to step out in your faith and you WILL experience Him - by following His commandments, He will abide in you and you in Him.

You actually have to put it into practice.

When you put into practice what He said and did- you experience Him. You are walking His footsteps, you are living the life He led - you get to know Him and what He's like.

There's a part YOU need to play in this relationship too - otherwise it will be a fruitless relationship.
