DO YOU KNOW HOW TO PRESENT THE GOSPEL?

You should know how to present the gospel. Here’s an example.

God is love. Any sin is rebellion against God. God is also just. That means He must judge any sin. So, if you ever told a lie, even a little one, God must judge you. If you ever took something that didn’t belong to you, God must judge you. If you ever hated anyone, failed to love every person as much as God loves every person, had a sexually impure thought, wanted what someone else had, disrespected your parents, or did anything wrong, God must judge you. Judgement is hell, a terrible ongoing punishment.

God loves you more than you can imagine. He doesn’t want you to go to hell. He wants you with Him in heaven, and He wants to be your friend right now. The trouble is that your sin has made you His enemy. You were born in sin. Everyone is born that way. God wants to set you free from sin, and He has a way.

Your sin broke the law. If you were in court, and the judge said, either pay a six million dollar fine or go to jail, you wouldn’t be able to pay the fine. You would go to jail. If the judge was just, like God is just, he couldn’t let you go. But someone else could pay your fine. God loves you so much that He paid your fine for you by sending His Son, Jesus, to be born as a human, be tempted as a human, never sin even once, and then suffer and die in the most unfair way to pay your fine and set you free. He died for your sin. He rose again from the dead, overcoming death for every person who will receive His free gift of life and righteousness.

Now, your loving God is asking you to accept Jesus Christ into your heart. As He speaks to you through these words on this page and you hear His voice, you can receive what He says. If you do that, you will find faith forming in your heart. You will know Jesus died and rose again to set you free from sin and death. You can confess that you have sinned against God and tell God you accept the work Jesus did to forgive your sins. When you believe and confess in this way, Jesus is formed in your heart. You are born again. You are taken from the kingdom of darkness to the Kingdom of God.

LET US BE BROKEN LIKE BREAD

Let us be broken like bread to feed the hungry.
Let us be poured out like wine for those in need.
May we empty ourselves with words of life,
So that virtue may go out to all the earth.
I hear the groanings of My creation
Asking, “How long, how long will it be?”
They are standing on tiptoe and waiting to see
The sons of God bringing forth their liberty.

FALSE STRAWMAN FALLACY

Sometimes, those who take the time to learn all about fallacies are worse off than if they hadn’t known anything about fallacies. They have surface knowledge but don’t understand. Here’s an example.

Rocky Rockbuilder: Meeting the definition of a scientific theory requires rigor, but the molecules-to-humankind evolution story doesn’t meet the test of a scientific theory.

Sandy Sandbuilder: The fact that you refer to Molecules-to-humankind evolution demonstrates that you lack of understanding of evolution.

Rocky: How so?

Sandy: Because molecules-to-humankind evolution isn’t a field of study. Using a strawman argument undermines your position significantly because it’s dishonest.

Rocky: Did I say molecules-to-humankind evolution is a field of study, or did I say it’s a story?

Sandy falsely accused Rocky of committing a strawman argument, but Sandy committed a strawman fallacy. Rocky did not. Sandy implied Rocky had said molecules-to-humankind evolution is a field of study when Rocky said molecules-to-humankind evolution is a story. Is molecules-to-humankind evolution a field of study? Does anyone study the story that says molecules morphed into humans over millions of years?

Ungodly thinkers routinely falsely accuse godly thinkers of committing fallacies. They learned the names of many fallacies. However, they didn’t learn to be rational.

In Jesus, in Jesus.

In Jesus, in Jesus.

Blurring the Line

Anything that blurs the line between reality and make-believe is a fallacy. Fallacies always make it harder to sort out the difference between truth and error.

Warning! Memorizing many fallacies may give you a false sense of security, but it won’t help you be rational. It won’t help you detect irrationality. You can easily irritate other people by claiming they’ve committed one fallacy or another, but you won’t be getting closer to truth.

All truth is hidden in Christ, and all who love truth listen to Christ. Enter into His presence with thanksgiving, honor, and praise. Remember that all who seek Jesus find Him. In Him, they find truth, knowledge, wisdom, understanding, and righteousness.

Let Thy Kingdom Be the Only Thing for Me

They let mercy and truth forsake them.

Let not mercy and truth forsake you. Bind them around your neck. Write them on the tablet of your heart. And so find favor and high esteem in the sight of God and man. Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes. Fear the LORD and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones. ~ Proverbs 3:3-8

They let mercy and truth forsake them. The insanity we see around us today in our so-called “woke” culture can be traced back to the insane philosophy ironically called “Rationalism,” the idea that the human mind can manufacture truth without the benefit of experience, observation, or divine revelation. Add to that the idiotic ways the schools and textbooks have tried to get around the fact that sound reasoning must have valid form and true premises. They failed to account for the fact that the human mind can’t reason to truth, and rational thought is impossible without truth. We even need truth to interpret our experiences and observations. All wisdom and knowledge of truth are hidden in Christ Jesus, and He is the Light Who lights every person that comes into the world. Those who refuse to acknowledge Him, thank Him, and give Him the glory for this knowledge gradually lose the ability to discern the difference between God’s truth and the lies that come from fallen carnal minds or demons.

LET THE LOVE OF GOD BE IN ME

God sent His love in Jesus,
When He died upon the tree.
By His death and resurrection,
He revealed that love to me.

CHORUS:

Let the love of God be in me,
Let the beauty of Jesus be seen.
Let the pattern of the Son
Be the one, the only one,
That men might see Jesus in me.

God sent His Holy Spirit,
To guide and indwell me,
O blessed Holy Spirit,
Reveal God’s love through me.

Why the world has gone crazy.

Agreeing on Premises

Since ungodly thinkers have no path to true premises that prove conclusions, they often suggest an alternative to true premises. They couldn’t prove any of their premises using godless thinking, so they invented a workaround. They decided it’s enough if they agree on premises. Two or more people can agree on certain premises. They pretend the premises are true because they agree on them. Agreeing doesn’t prove the premises, and no one believes the premises have been proven. They just ignore that fact and continue as if the premises were proven. And then, they use unsound logic (logic without true premises) to reason to conclusions. Then, they become dogmatic about those conclusions. This is another part of why the world has gone crazy.

If you agree on the premises rather than proving the premises, you can have a conversation. You can use proper form in your logic all you like, but proper form can’t make your premises true. You could prove you agree on the premises, but you can’t prove the premises. You can’t prove your conclusions are true. You can agree, but you would be agreeing to deceive yourself. Agreement isn’t the same thing as truth.

As you can see, ungodly thinking is a terrible problem. It stumbles around aimlessly in a world of make-believe. Ungodly thinking is always irrational. That’s a problem. Ungodly thinkers try to project their problem onto godly thinkers. However, godly thinking doesn’t have that problem.

The only way to have sound reasoning is to listen to the voice of God

The only way to have sound reasoning is to listen to the voice of God as He reveals the truth to you. You need Jesus.

You can’t prove to another person that God speaks to you.

If you speak by the Holy Spirit, the other person is hearing the voice of God through you. And if they seek God, God will speak the same thing to them.

Ungodly thinkers are ungodly thinkers because they refuse to seek God and refuse to acknowledge God when they hear Him speak to them. Not even God can get through to them because God doesn’t force Himself on anyone. They have free choice to ignore God.

UNLESS GOD MAKES THE STATEMENT!

Often, people make claims based on authority. You need to ask, “What is the authority?” you need to ask, “What is the starting point9T for the claim?” you need to ask, “How do you know?”

When you ask these three questions and give them serious thought, you begin to realize the weakness of almost all reasoning used around you.

If you make a truth claim, every premise statement must be true. The premise statements supposedly show that the conclusion is true. Those premise statements must be true.

Truth is absolute by definition. The fallen human mind can’t prove any premise true. The premise is supposed to be the proof, but you need proof of the proof. Every statement needs further proof.

UNLESS GOD MAKES THE STATEMENT!

In other words, you find yourself in an infinite regression of unproven proofs unless God spoke to you.

If you’re going to prove anything, then you must base your reasoning on absolute premises. Can you state the premises clearly? Are the premises absolute truth? Do you have a way to know your premises are true?

Ungodly teachers ignore this problem because the only way they can have true premises is by divine revelation.

Without divine revelation, premises are axiomatic thinking fallacies. Now you understand why skeptics claim you can’t even know you exist. And they claim you can’t know a real world exists.
