There is one whose target is to ‘create doubt’ that the scriptures are the word of God. He knows the power and truth that can and does defeat his purposes by those who read and study it. His tactics are revealed within and exposed for what they are so in creating doubt is a first line of attack by the enemy of God and mens souls...and it does work to weaken those in the faith and keeps those away from God who might otherwise come to Him.

When people are not grounded in what the Lord God says in His word they are then wide open for any false and deceptive arrow the enemy can launge from his arsenal. In todays world those arrows are flying high and fast for he knows his time is short. The question remains as it always has been...Who do we choose this day to serve? We are either on one side or the other....for or against...sitting on the fence will always be on the wrong side of the right...until one chooses.

That sounds positviely islamic to me, and smacks of "official truth" suporters who wil not tolerate any dissenting opinions. Christian societies have created a world of inquiry and democracy rather than theocracies we see in the islamic world. There are unforuitnate exceptions, of cours,e in every group.

The days of Catholic and Putritan persecutions are over. Perhaps because of them atheism is so rampant in the west. I am all for free thinking and my heroes are the English and American thinkers of the Age of Reason who, among other things, shaped our American democracy while not being afraid to tackle most fundamental quesitons about God, even his own existence.

"Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.” Thomas Jefferosn, a letter to his relative]
