WHO MADE GOD?

WHO MADE GOD? In light of all the evidence for a beginning of the space-time universe, the Beginner must be outside the space-time universe. When God is suggested as the Beginner, atheists are quick to ask the age-old question, “Then who made God? If everything needs a cause, then God needs a cause too!” As we have seen, the Law of Causality is the very foundation of science. Science is a search for causes, and that search is based on our consistent observation that everything that has a beginning has a cause. In fact, the question “Who made God?” points out how seriously we take the Law of Causality. It’s taken for granted that virtually everything needs a cause. So why then doesn’t God need a cause? Because the atheist’s contention misunderstands the Law of Causality. The Law of Causality does not say that everything needs a cause. It says that everything that comes to be needs a cause. God did not come to be. No one made God. He is unmade. As an eternal being, God did not have a beg...

If Jesus is God, then why did He not know the time of His return?

If Jesus is God, then why did He not know the time of His return? by Matt Slick Matt. 24:35-37, "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. 37 For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah." If Jesus is God in flesh, then shouldn't He know what the day and hour of his return would be?  After all, God knows all things.  Therefore, if Jesus doesn't know all things, then He cannot be God. This objection is most often raised by the Jehovah's Witnesses, but is also echoed by the Christadelphians.  It is a good question. Jesus was both God and man.  He had two natures.  He was divine and human at the same time.  This teaching is known as the hypostatic union, that is, the coming-together of two natures in one person.  In Heb. 2:9 it says Jesus was ". . . made for a little while lower th...

DOES EVOLUTION MAKE SENSE?

WHY EVOLUTION MAKE NO SENSE ABOUT CREATION.   Darwinian Evolution explains human existence; we don’t need a Creation  What once was an easy starting point for Christian evangelism is now under attack by many in the scientific establishment. The Bible begins its message with the account of Creation. Creation is what makes us need the Bible’s message. God made us. We are accountable to him. If we have turned from him, we are under judgment and needy of a Savior. When Paul preached Christ in Athens, he stressed that there was one God who had created all people. “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands... From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places they should live” (Acts 17:24-26). Paul continues, explaining that because God made all people, we are all accountable to seek ...

This thing called lust.

We had gone for children’s home at kahawa sukari as Technician Family in collaboration with BBCM. After the arrival were we delegated different roles: those who went to cook, others to play with the kids, others cleaning the environment, others to do some repairs that needed  to be done and the rest to do some laundry. The majority did the laundry because the work was bulky I was among them. Everybody was happy and did the duty with absolute enthusiasm. The kids were very happy to see these new visitors who had come to visit them. They were entertained by those of us who knew how. There were swings where most of us went first as we reminded ourselves how it used to feel swinging during our childhood. Now I remember that as one of those ladies we were together with swung something that left me completely uncomfortable happened. She wore a black skirt that came above her knees when she sat down, when she went to swing the person they were together pushed her vigorously that her whit...
