True science is the friend of the Judeo Christian belief
system. God is not afraid of science, in
fact; He created it. The Bible has never
been proved wrong by a fact though it has been slain by many theories both now
and in the past. Theory is a scientific term
for an unproved opinion. It is an exciting
tool for the scientific community because it does not require the proof of
something they cannot prove, merely an educated guess, a belief. Science has a multitude of theories and just
a few facts. Many theories have been
defeated upon closer examination of the facts and new scientific principles but
the Bible has never been defeated by a fact.
The ‘theory’ of Evolution has never been proven, however
many scientists still point to successfully disproved ‘missing links’ and other
so called facts to give it legitimacy. True
science is against evolution.
Mathematics is against it. The
known facts of the universe are against it and it is still taught in schools as
fact because the truth is too hard for biologists and others to accept. Few scientific leaders are willing to admit
the ‘missing links’ are just not proven to be fact; in fact, they will argue to
the death that their theories are accurate even when faced with the flaws in
their beliefs. Sadly, not only are they
willing to bank their reputations on this lie but the sheer number of
scientists willing to back it has confused the legal system enough to convince
judges to outlaw creation teaching in schools.
Science was never supposed to be a religion whose only task
was to protect its own beliefs. In
reality, Christianity is far more willing to look into truth because we believe
our God when He says, “The truth shall make you free.” Sadly, we are forced to examine every
scientific breakthrough, double checking the scientist’s work to make sure he
hasn’t lied or made erroneous assumptions for the sake of his fame and prestige. Few professional sports teams are as
cutthroat and dog-eat-dog as the scientific and educational community. Unfortunately, scientists seem to lack the
professional umpires found in sports and without that third party examination
of their theories, are prone to fall short in cleaning up their own dirty
laundry. They call it peer review, which
is a fancy way of saying that evolutionists guard evolutionists and physicists
guard physicists. A favored saying in
such circumstances is, “Everyone knows it’s true that’s why.” Everyone in his or her group that is.
When reality occasionally intrudes in their theoretical
ideals their answer is to hold a panel of senators or members of congress and
argue for the rightness of their opinion.
In this highly unscientific venue they are able to argue for, and if
their arguments are convincing, obtain legislative legitimacy of a scientific process
that the scientists barely understand and the politicians surely do not. In this manner you can politicize all types
of scientific principles and even diseases and social conditions to the extent
that it no matters what is true or false but only what you can sell to the
public.
There is a quote often attributed to Joseph Goebbels,
Hitler’s head of propaganda. While it is
unlikely that he said it, the quote says, “If you tell a big enough lie and
repeat it often enough, people will believe it to be true.” I’m not sure who the first person in history
was who discovered this truth and used it effectively but there is one similar
in the scripture. John 8:44 says that
Satan is the father of lies and that the truth is not in him. He is the prince of the power of the air in
this present time. Does that tell you
something? His is the voice that the
unsaved will heed and follow. It’s not
easy to serve God but ultimately we will be proven right both in faith and in
science. Christians do not follow God
because we are stupid, ignorant or fools; we follow Him because He has proved
Himself in our lives time and time again.
Our faith is not a blind and ignorant thing. Christianity would have never survived
without the reality of the experience of a relationship with God. Everything about serving God in truth is
difficult and requires great sacrifice.
We don’t follow God because our faith is easy and requires little of us;
we follow Him because it is true and demands all.
There are weak Christians and flawed Christians and seeking
Christians and hurting Christians but one thing you need never find and that is
a Christian who would kill or lie to protect God. He needs no such protection and would be
mortified by any attempt to lie on His behalf.
Our responsibility is to love unconditionally, walk as Jesus walked and
be an ambassador of the King of kings and Lord of lords. I won’t say Christians never lie or hurt
others to protect God, only that to do so is misguided and foolish. God has no flaws and His Word will prove
itself. He has never asked us to defend
Him. He is not so weak. His truth shall make US free.
When theories have been proved or rejected and all that
remains is truth…therein stands God.
