The only time it’s hopeless is if you harden your heart against the Holy Spirit.

Therefore there is now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus. ~ Romans 8:1

Christ, Your Wisdom

It is because of Him (God) that you are in Christ Jesus, Who has become for us wisdom from God: our righteousness, holiness, and redemption. ~ 1 Corinthians 1:30

Jesus Christ is your wisdom. God doesn’t give you a glass of wisdom. He gives you Jesus Christ. Jesus is your wisdom. Jesus is a living stream in you. He streams Himself through you. He leads, teaches, and corrects you continually like a fountain of Life. It’s a moment-by-moment experience.

Axioms consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on axioms.

The emperor has no clothes. I’m just like the little boy who didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to say anything. They’re all just making up stuff and calling the made-up stuff true. ALL Truth is hidden in Christ.

91 FACTS MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT RATIONAL THOUGHT:
1. The whole world honors an insane way of thinking without absolute truth, and that’s why the world is so crazy.
2. Rational thought requires a starting point of truth. It must be based on truth. Truth is absolute by definition.
3. Without divine revelation, it’s impossible to have a true premise. Without a true premise, it’s impossible to be rational.
4. Without truth, no rational thought can exist.
5. No truth exists outside Christ.
6. The simplicity in Christ is this: Christ is real and Christ reveals truth to any open mind. He’s alive and knowable.
7. You can pray, “Lord, be the foundation of my every thought. Let me listen to Your voice every moment.”
8. Jesus Christ speaks through the Bible and every means of divine revelation mentioned in the Bible.
9. The Bible is saturated with the Spirit of Christ, so you can’t avoid hearing His voice if you read the Bible.
10. Even though the Spirit of Christ saturates the Bible so no one can avoid hearing His voice when reading the Bible, ungodly thinkers avoid acknowledging Christ when He speaks to them.
11. God doesn’t rewrite the Bible because ungodly thinkers rebel against His righteousness.
12. God doesn’t change the Bible. God speaks through the Bible to change you.
13. Wherever truth is denied, Christ is denied. Wherever Christ is denied, truth is denied.
14. Christ is truth and wisdom. No other source exists, but many fakes exist.
15. God is love. No other source for love exists, but many fakes exist.
16. Christ is the Light of the world who lights every person, but many turn from the Light.
17. When people turn from Christ, they turn toward darkness and lose the ability to tell the difference between good and evil and truth and lie.
18. In John 3:19-21, Jesus stated the reason ungodly thinkers persist in their ungodly thinking.
19. Three possible sources exist for claims: human error, demonic entities, and God. Only God can reveal the truth.
20. The truth-value of a statement can be true, false, or null (unknown).
21. Without divine revelation, the only option is fallacy.
22. Divine revelation is the only way to avoid fallacies.
23. Whatever you build on the starting point of Truth (Jesus is the Truth), you must build without adding to or diminishing that Truth. (1 Co. 3:11-15)
24. Only one true Source for knowing exists. His name is Jesus Christ.
25. Without Christ, every assertion is a bare assertion.
26. Assumptions are unsupported claims (made-up stuff) people make up and treat as if real.
27. Most thinking is based on made-up stuff. For simplicity, call it lying.
28. Assumptions come out of worldviews, and worldviews give the illusion of reality while filtering out real reality.
29. Claims contrary to fact are bare claims that are also untrue.
30. If you follow Christ, you never have to use fallacy unless you choose not to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Those who follow Christ never have to be irrational since God reveals knowledge.
31. Two basic fallacies exist: calling made-up stuff real and covering up the fact that we’re calling made-up stuff real.
32. Don’t fall into the axiomatic thinking fallacy trap. Axiomatic thinking is calling made-up stuff “true.”
33. The only alternative to the axiomatic thinking fallacy is divine revelation.
34. Assumptions consist of made-up stuff, and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane. And yet, academia runs on assumptions.
35. Presuppositions consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on presuppositions.
36. Axioms consist of made-up stuff and using them as the basis for reasoning is insane, and yet, academia runs on axioms.
37. Since ungodly thinkers can never prove any premise, they get used to fallacy.
38. Ungodly thinkers mix assumptions with observations. Observation is different from an assumption.

41. Ungodly thinkers use the argument from ignorance fallacy a lot, but it’s a sneaky way to give the illusion speculations are part of reality.

43. Ungodly thinkers can’t be rational because of the Münchausen Trilemma. Only divine revelation from Jesus Christ solves this Trilemma.
44. Agrippa’s Trilemma (the Münchausen Trilemma) binds ungodly thinkers.

46. Ungodly thinkers claim, based on bare assertion, that God doesn’t reveal truth to those who listen to Him.
47. Ungodly thinkers claim divine revelation is made-up stuff. How ironic! The ungodly thinker made up that claim. The ungodly thinker is claiming to know the inner spiritual experience of every Christian who ever lived.
48. God reveals Himself to ungodly thinkers. They refuse to listen to Him.
49. When ungodly thinkers refuse to listen to Christ, they’re turning toward darkness. They lose their ability to sense God. They can’t hear Him anymore. They can’t feel His presence. They can’t see the Kingdom of Heaven. They become increasingly callous.
50. Ungodly thinkers make up stories to assert that Christ doesn’t reveal reality to those who follow Him.
51. If you assume what you’re trying to prove, you prove nothing.
52. How could an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They would need a second premise to prove the first, but they can’t prove the second premise either. How can an ungodly thinker prove a premise? They can’t.
53. Ungodly thinkers are always forced to use fallacies since they can’t prove any premise true.
54. Rational thought requires true premises. That’s a problem for ungodly thinkers. It’s not a problem for those who know Christ. He is the truth and the only Source of knowledge and truth.
55. Rational thought must be based on truth, but ungodly thinkers have no path to truth. Ungodly thinkers can only escape this problem by turning to Christ. Pray for them.
56. Ungodly thinkers love to argue. Since they think their bare claims are valid, they have no limits.
57. Since ungodly thinkers can’t think rationally, they argue irrationally.
58. Interpretation of observation requires adding something (truth or not truth) to the observation. Truth only comes by divine revelation from Christ.
59. Interpretation of Scripture requires adding something (truth or not truth) to the Scripture. Truth only comes by divine revelation from Christ.
60. Emotion never proves anything, but ungodly thinkers are convinced based on emotion.
61. The emotional appeal fallacy is effective in fooling weak minds.

64. Dogmatic thinking bases thought on dogma rather than living in the revelation flowing from Jesus Christ, Who is the only Source of ALL knowledge and wisdom.
65. Ambiguity can deceive the unaware.
66. God reveals truth through science. Some scientists thank Him. Others turn away from Light and Righteousness.
67. Ungodly scientists use assumptions as if they were part of reality. That’s how they sell their ungodly religion.
68. In the make-believe world of the ungodly thinker, “evidence” consists of filtered observations interpreted by assumptions that can’t be proved true.
69. Ungodly thinkers are stuck with bare claims and many smokescreen fallacies.
70. To say a statement is true when it’s unknown is irrational. Yet, that’s how ungodly thinkers use assumptions in science, philosophy, and theology.
71. No one can prove axioms like Rationalism, Naturalism, Materialism, or Uniformitarianism. They’re made-up stories, and they’re false.
72. Naturalism ASSUMES no God. God REVEALS no naturalism.
73. Speculative science and speculative theology: both are dangerous.
74. Ungodly thinkers can’t give an example of one kind of living thing ( like a cat of dog) turning into another kind of living thing. To say “countless examples exist” is not an example.
75. Evolutionists tried to be rational, but that never worked because evolutionism is irrational.
76. Evolutionists are having success with appeal to ridicule fallacies since no one likes to be ridiculed.
77. Evolutionism is based in storytelling and denialism. Evolutionism is a religious dogma that can’t be falsified. All conclusions of age-of-the-earth “science” depend on assumptions and storytelling.
78. Scientists and theologians generally reason emotionally and irrationally.
79. Scientists and theologians often reason based on made-up stuff such as axioms or assumptions. That’s irrational.
80. Scientists and theologians generally reason irrationally then rationalize their conclusions to make them seem sane.
81. Don’t be fooled by appeal the appeal to popularity fallacy. Satan established an organized system. The system consists of the culture, education, and media. The people in this system act in unison so the system acts as a single false prophet.
82. It’s no surprise ungodly schools teach an irrational form of logic.
83. Ungodly schools don’t teach the fact that without divine revelation, no path to a true premise exists.
84. Ad ignorantiam question fallacies work because most people don’t think rationally.
85. But sanctify [purify] the Lord God in your hearts [innermost being], and be ready always to give an answer [apologia = rational response] to every man who asks you a reason [logos = utterance = Christ] of the hope [firm vision from God] that is in you [in your innermost being] with meekness [a gentle spirit] and fear [reverence]. 1 Peter 3:15
86. Don’t let naysayers direct the conversation toward you. It’s not about you. It’s about Christ.
87. If you want to be a friend of the world, you are an enemy of God.
88. Making immorality legal doesn’t make immorality moral.
89. God judges every immoral act. He judges every word that didn’t proceed from His own mouth. Whatever He doesn’t lead you to and do through you is immoral.
90. You are called to yield to the Holy Spirit so you only do His acts and only say His words.
91. God created you to work together with Him in submission to Him, yielding the members of your body to His righteousness as He says His words and does His acts through you. Anything else is sin.

The love of the Lord flows through me from above.

The love of the Lord  flows through me from above.

The love of the Lord flows through me from above.

I Love You, My Brother

There is no power
in my own love.
The love of the Lord
flows through me from above.
Let the seed grow fully to the manifested Lord.
Let the fruit form totally according to the word.

I love you, my brother;
I love you, my sister with the love of the Lord,
And I see you with the eyes of hope;
I see Christ in you;
I see Jesus comin’ through.
I see in you
the glory of my King.
I see in you His ministry
and that is why I sing,
There is no power
in my own love.
The love of the Lord
flows through me from above.
My own love is not good enough.
My faith and hope and talent is not the right stuff.

I love you, my brother;
I love you, my sister with the love of the Lord,
And I see you with the eyes of hope;
I see Christ in you;
I see Jesus comin’ through.
I see in you
the glory of my King.
I see in you His ministry
and that is why I sing,

I love you, my brother;
I love you, my sister with the love of the Lord,
And I see you with the eyes of hope;
I see Christ in you;
I see Jesus comin’ through.
I see Jesus comin’ through.

The ad ignorantiam question fallacy

The ad ignorantiam question fallacy

The ad ignorantiam question fallacy

The ad ignorantiam question fallacy is sometimes called an argument from ignorance. Ungodly thinkers use it in many ways. Sometimes, they ask a question you can’t answer. They might ask something about Creation or Jesus, but you don’t know the answer. Then, they claim that you can’t know the Creation happened or you can’t know that Jesus is real because you can’t answer the question. The Creation doesn’t depend on you knowing everything about it. Jesus doesn’t depend on you knowing everything about Him. The ungodly thinker is being silly.

God is overcoming your fleshly nature with each submission.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

God is overcoming your fleshly nature with each submission. You may have setbacks. Never defend yourself when the Holy Spirit convicts you. Confess your fault and turn from your wicked ways by the power and authority of the Holy Spirit and His mighty grace. Keep your eyes on the prize. God is changing you to be holy as your Heavenly Father is holy. That won’t happen overnight. The only time it’s hopeless is if you harden your heart against the Holy Spirit.

Therefore there is now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus. ~ Romans 8:1

God’s patience is more than you can imagine.
(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

God’s patience is more than you can imagine. He said we, being weak humans, should forgive someone seventy times seven if that person hurt us the same way all those times. That’s 490 times. Won’t God’s forgiveness be even greater than that? God is overcoming your fleshly nature with each submission. You may have setbacks. Never defend yourself when the Holy Spirit convicts you. Confess your fault and turn from your wicked ways by the power and authority of the Holy Spirit and His mighty grace. Keep your eyes on the prize. God is changing you to be holy as your Heavenly Father is holy. That won’t happen overnight. The only time it’s hopeless is if you harden your heart against the Holy Spirit.

70. To say a statement is true when it’s unknown is irrational. Yet, that’s how ungodly thinkers use assumptions in science, philosophy, and theology.
71. No one can prove axioms like Rationalism, Naturalism, Materialism, or Uniformitarianism. They’re made-up stories, and they’re false.
72. Naturalism ASSUMES no God. God REVEALS no naturalism.
73. Speculative science and speculative theology: both are dangerous.
74. Ungodly thinkers can’t give an example of one kind of living thing ( like a cat of dog) turning into another kind of living thing. To say “countless examples exist” is not an example.
75. Evolutionists tried to be rational, but that never worked because evolutionism is irrational.
76. Evolutionists are having success with appeal to ridicule fallacies since no one likes to be ridiculed.
77. Evolutionism is based in storytelling and denialism. Evolutionism is a religious dogma that can’t be falsified. All conclusions of age-of-the-earth “science” depend on assumptions and storytelling.
78. Scientists and theologians generally reason emotionally and irrationally.
79. Scientists and theologians often reason based on made-up stuff such as axioms or assumptions. That’s irrational.
80. Scientists and theologians generally reason irrationally then rationalize their conclusions to make them seem sane.
81. Don’t be fooled by appeal the appeal to popularity fallacy. Satan established an organized system. The system consists of the culture, education, and media. The people in this system act in unison so the system acts as a single false prophet.
82. It’s no surprise ungodly schools teach an irrational form of logic.
83. Ungodly schools don’t teach the fact that without divine revelation, no path to a true premise exists.
84. Ad ignorantiam question fallacies work because most people don’t think rationally.
85. But sanctify [purify] the Lord God in your hearts [innermost being], and be ready always to give an answer [apologia = rational response] to every man who asks you a reason [logos = utterance = Christ] of the hope [firm vision from God] that is in you [in your innermost being] with meekness [a gentle spirit] and fear [reverence]. 1 Peter 3:15
86. Don’t let naysayers direct the conversation toward you. It’s not about you. It’s about Christ.
87. If you want to be a friend of the world, you are an enemy of God.
88. Making immorality legal doesn’t make immorality moral.
89. God judges every immoral act. He judges every word that didn’t proceed from His own mouth. Whatever He doesn’t lead you to and do through you is immoral.
90. You are called to yield to the Holy Spirit so you only do His acts and only say His words.
91. God created you to work together with Him in submission to Him, yielding the members of your body to His righteousness as He says His words and does His acts through you. Anything else is sin.

 

I know your fear. I know your pain. But I’ll restore My Church again.

I know your fear. I know your pain.
But I'll restore My Church again.

I know your fear. I know your pain. But I’ll restore My Church again.

I know your fear. I know your pain.
But I’ll restore My Church again.
I raise it up a mighty temple unto Me.

God’s glory will, the Temple, fill,
But only when it’s fully built.
The veil is torn, the Christ revealed that all may see.
