HOW MUCH AM I WORTH TO GOD?
GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE TO CREATE ME
OHHHH. AND YOU TOO!
WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IN YAHWEH OR NOT
In my daily devotional I like to recall the lengths God went to in order to create me. In short, out of love He created all that is in order to create me.
Astrophysicists tell us that the universe is fine tuned within a 2% tolerance. Here is why God did this. If there had been 2% more mass in the universe all the planets would have been like Saturn and Neptune, mostly gaseous.
If there had been 2% less mass in the universe, then there would have been too much of the heavy metals, making it impossible for there to be water and an atmosphere on any planet.
But this 2% wonder goes much further. There are 150 different features about planet Earth that had to be within a 2% tolerance for life as we know it to exist on this planet.
And because of all these measurable, imperial facts, the statistical, mathematical likelihood of there being another planet in the universe that can sustain life as we know it is less than one.
Isn't it glorious that God created the universe so He could create me—so He could create you? That is how big your God is.
Can you rejoice in that?
Can you live for Him?
Can you die for Him Jesus die for you [This information came from a book titled: The Fingerprint of God, by Dr. Hugh Ross]
What Are You Willing To Die For
Life is not worth living if there is not something you are willing to die for...to lay down your life for. Life needs a purpose and a passion; otherwise you are a dead man walking.
But if you believe in something enough to die for it, then you are compelled all the more to live so that you can use your life energies to propagate the thing you would lay down your life for.
There is but one purpose for life — to prepare for eternity. Life is measurably brief.
Eternity is immeasurably endless. Ignorance alone compels us to trifle with our eternal destiny.
Personally, I dont want to get over on the other side of eternity and then find out what I SHOULD have known — what I COULD have done — on THIS side of eternity to lay up treasures in heaven.
How about you? Have you discerned the time we now live in?
Using a Quantum Physics term, we have crossed a threshold into another era.
We are now in the era that Bible prophecy refers to as the days just prior to the 7 year tribulation period.
Have you discerned yet that we can no longer live the rest of our lives as we have all our lives up until 2009?
Are you ready for a depression and riots?
Have you heard the prophetic warning David Wilkerson has given us?
If you are informed and are realistic, you know that is a probability.
And if you are a Christian, are you ready to live under persecution like our brethren are in Third World countries like Red China do?

I dont think we're going to agree on anything here, so we might aswell call it a day on this debate - but i do respect your decision not to censor the comments. Its unfortunate that most religious youtubers like to censor them all and only show comment which fit their view.

Theres no nice way to put this, but whatever "research" you provide me with, the inescapable fact is that religions that conflict with scientific research always have and always will be about censorship, baseless assumptions and pseudoscience. Creationists are renowned for being knowingly dishonest and misleading in their attempts to desperately try and cling on to fables in the bible that have been conclusively debunked by science time and time again.

In recent years much research has gone into providing us with inescapable proof of the divine nature of the Bible. This research shows that no human is capable of making prophecies and hiding messages with such inerront accracy, so it had to be God who inspired the writers of the books in the Bible.
I will give two examples of these wonders in the next two posts (I could give many more).

"A theory is not a fact, it is speculation on what might be, but as of yet is not proven or provable in a controlled lab test."
I strongly advise you to check up on what a scientific theory actually means, because you have it horribly wrong.
"The Bible makes it clear"
What system do you have to verify that the claims in the bible are the complete truth? Surely you dont just beleive it because the book says so? Dont the conflicts with scientific investigation raise alarms in your mind?

To finish a thought...
The question was, do all Bible believing Christians believe the earth is only 6,000 years old. No, not all do, and I gave the names of some who make a good case for their argument. And here is another ...
I refer you to this book: Another Time, Another Place, Another Man. A Biblical Alternative to the Traditional View of Creation. Based on the writings of Finis Dake who wrote the Dake commentary. Edited by Mark Allison & David Patton.

A theory is not a fact, it is speculation on what might be, but as of yet is not proven or provable in a controlled lab test.
The Bible makes it clear from cover to cover that Satans kingdom was on planet Earth, and that Satan (Lucifer) rebelled against God. The angelic war that ensued destroyed the Earths surface and had to be restored before Adam could be created. This is an explanation for the so-called Genesis 1:1 1:2 gap theory.

Are you suggesting that those christians who beleive what the bible says (instant creation etc) are wrong?
What makes you so sure your version is right?

True science? As opposed to what?
Evolution is a well established theory and the only people who refuse to beleive it do so because it conflicts with their assumptions and presuppositions and not because of any evidence based reasoning.
You seem more than happy to use science when it suits you (to claim these facts that you put in the side bar) yet you refuse to accept evolution even though it was brought to you by the same scientific method. We know more about evolution than the universe.

Your ignorance of what Christianity is, is showing. Christianity is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, not traditions, dogmas, and ceremonies. Neither Dr. Chuck Missler or Dr. Hugh Ross teach that our planet is only 6000 years old. Satan's kingdom existed and fell before Adam came on the scene, but we do not know how long before Adam. Also, TRUE science denies evolution. Evolution is a religion without basis ... just faith.
