The Vineyard- February 15, 2015

The Vineyard

I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. – John 15:5

 

Hasn’t Science Disproven Faith?

Pray that God will speak to you through the reading of His word.

-          The game is rigged

o   Often when we try to speak of faith in society, the world sets the parameters of the discussion against us.  How do we frame the discussion so that faith isn’t precluded from the outset?   

-          How science points toward God

o   There are many, many example of irreducibly complex biological systems, systems which cannot have resulted from evolution.  How does our complexity point towards the existence of a Creator?

o   The universe is miraculously organized so as to support life.  How does the existence of everything in just the right way to support life point to a Creator?

-          Science as the exploration of God’s creation

o   Did you know that so many of the great scientists were devout Christians?

o   How can science, exploring God’s creation, strengthen our faith and point us toward God?

Pray for the ability to defend your faith, even in a world that stacks the deck against us. 

Praise God for making such a wonderfully complex universe, perfectly fit for our habitation.
