The Trinity

The philosophical law of non-contradiction informs us that something cannot be both true and false at the same time and in the same sense. This is the fundamental law of all rational thought. And the doctrine of the Trinity does not violate it. This can be shown by stating first of all what the Trinity is not. The Trinity is not the belief that God is three persons and only one person at the same time and in the same sense. That  would be a contradiction. Rather; it is the belief that there are three persons in one nature. This may be a mystery, but it is not a contradiction. That is, it may go beyond reason's ability to comprehend completely, but it does not go against reason's ability to apprehend consistently.

Life has a silver lining

I would like to live in a world that is perfect. I would like not to have pain and my faith group would not suffer. This is not based on reality. This world will hate Jesus and hate on people that love Jesus.

1 Peter 1:6 says, "In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all times of trials." If we look at the Chinese government. There are internment camps that imprisoned Christians. These camps are not much of a vocation. Make to pray for these Christians. The world can be Woke but they will never take a stand for these lovely Christians in China.

The Chinese Christians and Christians that face death on a daily occurrence can have a solid spiritual life. They will depend on God more than the lukewarm church in the United States. When a person lift weights, it makes them have stronger muscles. The muscles will be sore but it will recover. 1 Peter 1:7 says, "These have to come so that your faith-of greater worth than gold, which perishes even through refined fire-may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Christ Jesus is revealed."

I have heard many people say to me that they will only believe if God appears to them. They want God to show his physical body to them that moment. We could not handle the glory of God, if God appears to us. It is clear that they never heard of the Ten Commandments and Moses. Moses couldn't see God face to face.

God wants us to have free-will. God has given us enough to believe and it goes back if a person loves sin. 1 Peter 1:8-9 says, "Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not now, you believe in him and filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the joy of your faith, the salvation of your souls."

Learning the right tricks

 A Scientific American article admits (way back in 1991) that the "chicken and egg" problem of DNA and proteins has not been solved by the RNA hypothesis. DNA requires proteins to function and proteins are made from DNA. The actual laboratory observations are highly artificial with a "great deal of help from the scientists. " Miller's and Fox's experiments on the origin of proteins and proteinoids, which supposedly produced "protocells," are essentially dead ends. Clever attempts at producing life in the lab only demonstrate that life can be produce by intelligence. The story of life originating in clay crystals and deep-ocean vents are just stories, with no observational data to confirm them. In all, much more research is needed to even begin to answer the question of the origin of life in a materialistic framework. Creationists need only accept that God has created life and study the changes that have occurred since creation.
