BUT CAN YOU PROVE IT

Talking to a friend today, and others at different times I'm told about their beliefs. They spread the word of that belief but never have I heard, "I can prove it" said with it. That is because they can't. If you ask them why they believe that you get no answer other than, they just do. They never have the details of the belief, where the facts were formulated, or the original language of the belief they are clinging to so hard, if its other than their chosen one.

The Bible they quote from has seldom been completely read and never studied academically but still it's relied upon to prove an unprovable point because the Bible is the Readers Digest of the theological world, and unless read in the Hebrew it was written in, they haven't got a clue to the real meanings of the words they quote.

Giving up one's beliefs is the hardest thing in the world because a whole lifetime of knowledge lies dormant in there. What their strength is derived from, why proverty is accept6able in their world. Its why they can walk into certain death with a smile and fortitude because God will protect them. Its why they can lose every possession and still smile because God giveth and God taketh away.

What is one to do if there nothing to believe in? If there is no all powerful Heaven at the end of them golden streets, and no Saint Peter at the lock of those pearly gates? You cant forgive all the people you should but you firmly believe Heaven is where you're going. Maybe you should find out who God is, if he is. And who was there with Him in the beginning to watch him make the world? And what if he used sound to do it?
