No Need For This Blog Anymore

Well folks, I guess I’ll have to go ahead and shut down SeriousFaith.com.

Stephen Hawking has ended all speculation about God with the following declaration backed up by his unimpeachable wisdom, supreme insight and unquestioned opinion:

“Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist.”

Really? Where did the Law of Gravity come from? Spontaneous creation? And these kind of people like to say Christianity is “blind faith”?

So it’s blind faith to believe an eternal, personal God created the universe… but it’s “science” to believe the universe spontaneously appeared from nothing, for no reason because of a previously existing Law of Gravity (isn’t the existence of a law “something”?).  Now isn’t THAT something????

A statement like is yet another piece of evidence that the Bible really is God’s supernaturally delivered revelation predicting two thousand years ago that:

Romans 1:22–23 (NKJV) Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

I actually have great empathy for Hawking knowing that very soon he’ll stand before the God he denies and give account for the millions of people he deceived with his God-given brilliance.

What is the end result of this type of thinking? Read here…

God’s Cause, Not Mine

by brentriggs on September 1, 2010

Print Post Print Post    

I’ve been rewriting Puritan and other old prayers into modern English, and putting my own feel in them, for several years. One of these days, I’ll compile them and print them.

- – - – - – - – - – -

Sovereign God,

May Your causes, not mine, consume my heart and mind.
I’m asking You God, begging You, let Your Kingdom take over every place where Satan has taken charge.

Bring glory to Yourself and I will be full of joy.
Let seeing You honored be my sole desire.

I honor You simply because You are God and may I long for others
To know the same,  feel the same and experience the same.

I wish all people would love You and praise You so that You would be glorified by every single person in this world!
Let all the sinners of the world turn to You for the glory of Your name.

In our eyes it seems to be quite impossible that anyone would repent and turn to You,
but nothing is impossible for You.
It is Your plan and will that men be saved, and so they shall.

Lord, use me in any way You see fit but I hope it is in some way that will cause others to be drawn to You.
Let your Kingdom come and all Your plans be fulfilled on this earth!

I earnestly pray that great numbers of people will turn to You, Lord,
And I hope I live long enough to see that glorious day!

Give me eyes to see the multitudes of lost souls and the willingness to die to see them saved.
While I have breath, let me live to labor for lost souls to the utmost of my ability,
Using my time wisely and productively for Your work.

Let me long for Your Kingdom and Your will, not my own.
Oh God, please grant me this request!

In Jesus  name, Amen.

Answers About False Teachers & Discernment

I recently had a conversation with a friend of mine. We disagree on several Christian issues and I felt our conversation would benefit others. I’ve made it very generic because I’m not trying to dispute my friend publicly. The dialog just gave me the opportunity to answer some common questions, so I thought I would [...]

The Basic Christian Life: How to Cure Your Worldliness – Part 11

(Click here to search for all the posts in this series…) James 4:10: Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up. (NKJV) In this day and age of self-esteem, self-focus, self-improvement, self-love, self-forgiveness and self-worth any talk of humility and denying yourself is cast off as the old fashioned [...]

Gospel For Profit

When people teach publicly, it is right to call them out publicly and comment publicly, whether in support or rebuke. Recently, I stomached a few minutes of some of the most sickening “Gospel for Money” I’ve ever heard. I’m not sure who needs rebuked more: the guy teaching it, the people broadcasting it or the [...]

Well Done Filter

Matthew 25:21 – His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’ (NKJV) Our days are numbered, and short. Never let another human turn your eye from what counts for eternity. [...]
