Day 18 The Unfair Advantage

To me, this chapter is near and dear to my heart.

I know quite a few people who claim to be atheists. This seems to be an emotional issue for them. No logical or historical feedback do they ever provide to substantiate their position…it is always, I think, I feel, I believe or I know. Their position seems to be based on their past or someone somewhere who they guarantee knows what’s true. They say that they just don’t believe or if they do, they believe some part but not enough to follow up, they think every path can lead to truth.

The book, that I just read, “More Than a Carpenter” is a really good information manual and has a great approach to communicating some data that could get a non believer to think…hey, what if I’m dead wrong? Dead lasts a long time…hmmmmmm maybe there is something to the Resurrection after all. Historically, can it be proved? By who? What happens if it is true? How can I really find out if it is really true?

Anyway, I think that if answers can be provided and the communication is respectful during the discovery process as to the other person interest and needs, that the Holy Spirit will do the rest. IMHO
