God is edified when we show His grandeur through the Creation He made and attempt to prove that He actually did it.

There are 1000 roads to Rome but not everyone takes the same path.

When the Apostle Paul was on Mars Hill - he disputed daily with the Greek Philosophers of His day. I can assure you that he was not talking about floods and such. Paul was one of the brighest minds the Hebrew schools had ever produced. Also, he was the greatest advocate of Grace who ever lived (Save the Lord)

So, in Paul the Apostle, we have the unique soul which was capable of both contending for ideas which were logical and also spiritual.

Logic itself is the foundation of the Judeo-Christian history. Had the Jewish Synogogues not been so open to teaching and learning through the discussion of scripture, Jesus would not have had the opportunity to walk into any of them and begin teaching the truth. (and disputing inaccuracies through logic) Jesus took the world around Him and used it to explain complicated Spiritual subjects.

Today, we live in an age of science and that science is exploding. (Daniel told us that this would happen in the last days) The modern mind simply can't say that I believe it because the Bible says so. We, as this generations' Christians, have little to offer the world if we must apologize for the state of our 19th century thinking in this 21st millenium. Though we are fools for Christ - we need not be foolish in our thoughts and arguments in favor of why we believe.

By showing the unbeliever that he has not thoroughly considered the ramifications - of what he thinks is solid ground - we lead him to question the foundation of his mental house - and at the very hopeful least, consider Christ as an alternative.

Western science since ST Augustine was inseparably linked to the Christian world. ALL thinking in our academies and churches and cities - Had as it's foundation Judeo-Christian thought.

Only in the Days of Darwin did we give up the reins - because Scientific discoveries (And hypothecies)got ahead of our understanding of the scripture. We have at our disposal, in these very interesting times, the ability to recover the high ground, by showing how recent discoveries are continually pointing what we have always known, and that is - Christ spoke and the World began.

IN THE BEGINNING is what we have been discussing. And if the argument for the Beginning is won - then the middle and the end must by fate follow. That middle is Salvation and that end is Eternal Glory.

Additionally, many Christians are not taught these things nor have rarely considered them. But the arguments are persuasive - and the knowledge of them deepens our faith, because we know that in this age of science - God still can be shown to exist - logically. He is not dead. He is alive and well and He has signed everything He has ever done. Including my heart.
