Belief In God…
When it comes to a person’s belief (or disbelief) in God, there are four (4) reasons why:
• They choose to believe the books they’ve read.
• They choose to believe in their own logic/reasoning/understanding/experience.
• They choose to believe what others have told them.
• They choose to (or not to) believe Christ’s Promises.
1. They choose to believe the books they’ve read – whether it’s The Bible, The Origin of Species, The Tanakh, The Suttanipata, The God Delusion, The Qu’ran, The God Is Not Great book, The Book of Mormon, The End of Faith book, The New World Translations, or some other writing. In short, each reader places their faith (i.e. their trust) in what was written by another human being.
2. They choose to believe in their own logic/reasoning/understanding/experience. Believers and nonbelievers alike can sometimes place their faith in their own logic, reasoning, understanding and/or experiences. As such, they oftentimes come up with their own thoughts on God. I’ve witnessed people try to blend a bit of Christianity with a smattering of Buddhism and a sprinkling of Taoism. I’ve even seen some who mix Christianity or Judaism with Atheism or Agnosticism.
3. They choose to believe what others have told them. I’ve witnessed believers and nonbelievers say things they’ve heard others say and haven’t thought very deeply about their beliefs. For example, I heard one woman say, “I could only believe in a God of Love, not a God of Judgment.” And then I asked her, “So then, the guy down the street from where you grew up, the one who molested several children in your neighborhood, who died in his forties, should not be judged for what he did? He should just be granted entrance into Heaven and live next door to you for all eternity?” She was quiet and pensive after my comment. Don’t get me wrong, I understand where she’s coming from. But her theology was not very well thought out.
4. They choose to (or not to) believe Christ’s Promises. Let me be clear: Christians aren’t the only ones going to Heaven. Their will be Jews, aborted babies, babies/children who died young, the developmentally disabled, and many others who never knew Christ, in Heaven. However, everyone who had opportunities to learn of and know Christ but yet rejected His offer of salvation, will be given the desires of their heart – a place without Christ, devoid of His protection and provision.
