This evening I had the oppotunity to experience and be involved in a discussion between a Baptist(myself), Catholic, Atheist, and a current Mormon respectively simply by joining a friendly conversation, then instigating the “religious discussion” when I saw the conversational “door opening”. I was able to talk primarily to the catholic man for around two hours. It was the first time we had met, and it was a great and challengingexperience.
We discussed such topics as biblical miracles, absolute truth, creation/evolution and whether God created evil or not(and many more). Needless to say, as a learning christian, I learned about myself and my own beliefs, the beliefs of other religions/cults and just how awesome God truly is. I have much to ponder about and a few questions for people more advanced in apologetics(such as my pastor).
I think what I have learned most is…
I know and understand what I believe. My beliefs include faith. My faith is real. The reality is Jesus.
What am I doing to strengthen my faith in order to support my beliefs in order to share my Jesus? NOT ENOUGH
Well stated! None of us knows enough- the well of truth found in God’s Word is DEEP. Keep digging.
