Don't under rate yourself

March 15th, 2010

Is it true that so many people think of themselves simply as complex computers made of meat?  I ask is it true, because I hardly ever hear any one in the media acknowledging God, but hear constantly references to Darwinian evolution, not as a theory, but as if it is now without question the only valid explanation of how we got here.The impression is given that we were not created. But if that is true it is hard to argue that  there is any value or purpose to our lives at all.

I am not usually a great fan of  conspiracy theories.  I know many people have had it in turns to accuse the B.B.C. of plots against the labour party, or the conservatives. "They are far too right wing" or "too left wing"  is the criticism depending on where you are standing. But the people I have known who have worked within the B.B.C. assure me that the likelihood of someone even  knowing what is going on in the room next door is so unlikely, that plots from the top are pretty much unthinkable. So I don't see an anti-christian conspiracy movement afoot.

My explanation is that many people who work in the media, are simply out of touch with what the majority of  people are thinking. The average view I hear(for instance ) on radio 4 is far removed from listening to people in West Yorkshire.

Media people often give the impression that anyone who still believes God made us are basically so few and far between that they are not to be taken seriously except when their views threaten the holy cow of liberal democracy.

That I think is so sad. Not only because I, along with still I think the majority of the population, am convinced that God did make us. But because of the implications we have to take on board if we reject the idea of being made by God. The most amazing creation, full of purpose, beauty, and meaning, the human being, is downgraded to a chance happening with no purpose. Let's not under rate ourselves, we are , as human beings awesome. So awesome that when things went badly wrong, God thought we were worth mending. He still does. Anyone want to talk about that?

too much information?

March 3rd, 2010

My first blog. So I thought I'd better have a quick look round to get some idea of blogging generally. Scary. I can't get too excited about  my own trivia, let alone someone elses. Our lovelifetruth site is, as you've discovered  all about Jesus. We believe he is the key to your life and future, and so we have a message which is really worth telling. God is alive. We have offended him and are heading for judgement. God has sent Jesus to solve our sin problem. We repent, believe in Jesus and experience forgiveness, eternal life, and the hope of heaven. Ace.

We haven't got an original message at all. We are just messengers passing on what Jesus taught. We want to make known the message of Jesus and explain the difference between "religion" and being a follower of Jesus. So it could be  a bit daunting when you think of the zillions of words flying around the webesphere. Will anyone discover the words of the gospel amidst all the information? Thankfully the idea of telling people about Jesus is God's idea, so he is able to use this new site however he wants to bring people to a faith in Jesus Christ.

Of all the websites in all the world, here you are .
