I once made a remark
about the hidden books of the Bible. It was a lulu, kept people looking
so hard for facts, and for others it was a revelation. Some were in a jam,
especially since the names of the books are not capitalized, but the truth
finally struck home to numbers of readers. To others, it was a real
job. We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you.
Yes, there will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require
judges to help them. I will quickly admit it usually takes a

At a certain college there was a professor with a
reputation for being tough on Christians. At the first class, every
semester, he asked if anyone was a Christian and proceeded to degrade them
and to mock their statement of faith.
One semester, he asked the question and a young man
raised his hand. The professor asked, "Did God make everything
young man?" He replied "Yes sir he did!" The professor responded, "If God made
everything, then he made evil"
The student didn't have a response and the professor
was happy to once again proved the Christian faith to be a myth. Then
another man raised his hand and asked, "May I ask you something,
sir?"
"Yes, you man, "responded the professor.
The young man stood up and said, "Sir is there
such a thing as cold?"
"Of course there is, what kind of a question is
that? Haven't you ever been cold?"
The young man replied, "Actually, sir, cold
doesn't exist. What we consider to be cold, is really an absence of
heat. Absolute zero is when there is absolutely no heat, but cold does
not really exist. We have only created that term to describe how we
feel when heat is not there."
The young man continued, Sir, is there such a thing as
dark?
Once again the professor responded, "Of course
there is."
And once again, the student replied, "Actually,
sir, darkness does not exist. Darkness is really only the absence of
light. Darkness is only a term developed to describe what happens when
there is no light present."
Finally, the young man asked, "Sir is there such a
a thing as evil?
The professor responded, "Of course, we have rapes,
murders and violence everywhere in the world, those things are evil."
The student replied, "Actually, sir, evil does not
exist. Evil is simply the absence of God. Evil is a term
developed to describe the absence of God. God did not create
evil. It isn't like truth, or love which exist as virtues like hat or
light. Evil is simply the state where God is not present, like cold
without heat, or darkness without light."
The professor had nothing top say ................... Be full of Christ today, there is no room for anything else.. |
