Greetings Kingdom citizens,
Believing that God exists is only the beginning; even the demons believe that much (James 2:19, 20). God will not settle for mere acknowledgement of His existence. He wants your faith to lead to a personal, dynamic relationship. But does faith make sense, really? Do you believe because faith makes sense, or because faith doesn't need to make sense? Some Christians think people cannot understand God and should not try. Others believe that nothing true is irrational, including true faith. The truth is, God gave us minds that should be developed and used. To ignore intellectual growth is to live a stunted and naive life. God wants our trust and faith, even while we ponder and wonder so many matters mysterious to us. Even so, we do not believe in a void nor leap into the dark.
Faith is reasonable, though reason alone cannot explain the whole of it. So, use your mind to think things through, but be led by the Spirit. However, leave room for the unexplainable works of God. (Isaiah 55:8)
It is much more real to see yourself through God's eyes. His gaze upon you is steady and sure, untainted by sin.
