THOUGHT OF – – – OR THOUGHT UP

When Newton observed gravity, he did not invent gravity or create it.  He “thought of” gravity, not “thought up” gravity.

When science describes the world, it cannot explain everything it describes.  Science discovers new stuff in this phenomenal world all the time, and science explains how some of it works.  But one thing is constant about scientific advancement—ever-increasing complexity observed, ever-increasingly unexplainable.

Science describes.  Science cannot explain.

As knowledge and technology multiply by leaps and bounds, we vainly imagine that we can come up with answers to everything.  And we have seven billion different answers.

Something is missing.  But no, it is not missing.  It is just ignored.

Instead of continuing the futile search for the missing link to prove evolution (biggest failure of “science”), we have the Missing Link clearly written in three places for all to see, regardless of intelligence, fame, or fortune.

God explained everything we need to know—written in the grandeur of the universe, written in the heart of every human, and written in the Bible.

First, God is thrilled when man discovers all kinds of amazing new stuff, with more guaranteed to be found.  He put it all together with just enough secrecy to keep us searching—from the gold prospector to the psychiatrist to the physicist.

To put the second in human terms, God has a clear conscience because He put into our conscience a clear awareness of right and wrong and His sovereignty.

Third, the Bible explains very clearly how this whole world got made, how it got messed up, how it gets fixed, and how it ends.

Check it out—now, while you have time.

 

PLAY PRACTICE OR DRESS REHEARSAL, FOR . . .

The title refers to BHOB’s* trip to Israel, and more significantly, Israel’s warm reception in spite of his cold shoulder toward their country.

Now the rest of the title:

PLAY PRACTICE – – – OR DRESS REHEARSAL – – – FOR THE ANTICHRIST?

It seems there is usually a candidate for the antichrist on the world scene, and the Bible says there will be many.  Then finally there will be the one antichrist close to the end.  That explains the two alternatives in the title, with the question mark.

When Israel rolled out the red carpet for BHOB* this week, and both leaders spoke with glowing words about support and cooperation, a huge red flag went up for many.  When the real antichrist comes, Israel will supposedly sign a peace treaty with him that actually works for several years.  Then truth comes out and all hell breaks loose when the treaty is broken, and this world leader brings anything but peace.

Beware of peace, peace, where there can be no peace.

 

*Barack Hussein OBama—Say BHHHOB aloud and it sounds like the warning for Christians in the 2008 election: “Beware of sheep’s clothing.”
