A man's choice

 A Mans Choice 

“For a man’s ways are in full view of the LORD, 

and He examines all his paths.” 

                                                               Proverbs 5:21.

The writer of Ecclesiastes states.

“Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole  duty  of man. 

For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.” Ecclesiastes12:13,14

Whether you believe God or not He exists. C. S. Lewis said,

“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.” C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain 

To me to be an atheist and say there is no God is to be arrogant. For in saying there is no God you are saying you know everything and have been everywhere. That includes beyond the grave.

The simple fact remains that unless you truly have been everywhere you cannot for certain say that God does not exist. For the simple fact God could be where you have not been.

Atheism is as much a faith as any religion in the world. You must have faith that you are right in order to be an atheist.

Being wrong and being an Atheist has disastrous implications for it can effect where you will spend eternity.

Being a Christian on the other hand means if you are wrong you have at the very least lived a good moral life. Which is not a bad thing.

Blaise Pascal put it this way

Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists. Blaise Pascal.

If you are right as a Christian and I as a Christian believe Christians are right, means there is an eternal home in heaven with God in which there is peace and rest for your soul.

Thus the question is how strong is your faith be it in Atheism or Christianity. Do you truly believe there is no God ? Do you think this life is all we have?

Before you answer that question. I would ask that you read the New Testament and see for yourself what Christians believe. 

Please think about it.
