Faith can't be questioned, analyzed. Like a wave to surfers, you either embrace and ride it even when you know that something could go wrong, sharks may be around, you may be knocked dead,etc. Faith is like riding the wave of believe, you just feel it, go for it, experience it knowing that everything will be just fine.
You are not academic either.
Faith can be used to justify ANY belief. Faith is a poor pathway to reliable knowledge.
The language and vocabulary of faith has been changed for centuries, yet the "Church" refuses to use this... Such words as 'Leader" and "Leadership" have been outdated since Jesus taught us to be servants instead... Am I the only one that sees this and is quite annoyed with such outdated words that are continuously used?
What ever happened to revival and being Baptized by the High Priest (Christ) in the Holy Spirit? Reading 'Joy Unspeakable"right now by Lloyd-Jones and just finished reading several book on the Holy Spirit by Nee - if this were to occur which is getting harder and harder in this generation of self-entitlement and looking for something new rather than "knowing ourselves for what we are instead of avoiding it..none of this would be necessary ..waited for 10 minutes for her to even mention Jesus and nothing...we do not need to progress but digress. nearly 2000 years.. this will be just another session our church which is losing everyone to, to this stuff, that I will not be attending yet another book study. Really sad...let me say..if people were Baptized in the Holy Spirit..none of this would be even necessary whatsoever. Couldn't believe this leader of such studies actually stood in front of the church proudly proclaiming how liberal she was..no reactions because these are older people that want someone with Confidence in Christ..which all this stuff seems to avoid. The Truth will set you Free and if the Son sets you Free you will be Free indeed. Since one do we define freedom by the worlds standards and what people "think"'..what 'people think'' is the problem..and always has been..The old and the young , they all will KNOW ME..and here we are talking about belief? Something is very wrong here.
You are not academic, are you.
