I finally started school again on Monday in Apologetics. So far it's very interesting to me, and it's especially good to know that we as Christians DO have evidence of our faith that we can share that is not merely blind faith, but is actually concrete faith based on historical, scientific and logical data. The myth that faith and knowledge must be separated, which is so prevelant in our churches today, is untrue and these two actually work hand in hand to prove that God exists. The reason God has been slowly pushed aside is not because we didn't have the answers back then...but because Christians weren't debating the inaccuracies of theories like Darwinism. We let it permeate society while we continued in our little part of the earth within our own communities. But it finally seems like Christians are rising to the occasion today against the errors of humanity and using reason to prove that God is true. That's why organizations who are against God and faith-based organizations that stand up for truth are crying so loud and resorting to name calling and kicking and screaming today...cause what they thought was an easy win is turning out to be an all out war! And I say that the more we rise up and stand on the foundation we've found through Jesus Christ, the more others will around us who will realize the fight is hardly over against all deception from the evil one.
But that's what I got out of this first class and I'm looking forward to the rest of it definitely.
Other than that, I'm continuing my training in Usana and going forward with that, as well as my business. I may have more capital available to continue forward once I get my tax refund, assuming I'll be okay financially by then! I'm just praying I will! If that works out I can print a few more designs and get them going at the open air market down the street and start getting the word out. The last visit I made there to do some research, the Lord totally opened the doors and led me to a place where I can buy most of the merchandising equipment such as shirt racks, metal grids and so much more to sell my stuff! A friend of mine is selling a few clothes racks and said I could have them for free! That was a surprise I didn't expect. So things seem to be falling into place in surprising ways, and I thank God for that.
Anyhow, lately I've created a site on myspace, mainly as a way for our BOLD group to keep in touch over the years. You can see my personal site at http://www.myspace.com/onoma
I may be blogging there more often than here since I can network a little better there with other people who have the same interests. I can also put music on my site! yay! lol
As a side note, many unbelievers think that our prayers and faith to God are such that we depend of Him because we can't so much as lift a finger in this life. While it is true that He IS the reason we even exist and have free will, it doesn't mean we are mindless and helpless. We are all made in the image of God and have the ability to do the same things. But what prayer DOES do is give us help in supernatural ways that are beyond explanation and comprehension, and I think that's where people tend to freak out because they are still bound by their carnal nature.
