I heard an interesting way to think about and approach issues in the world. “Look at the world through the lense of the Bible, rather than looking at the bible through the lens of the world.” The point being that we should take the Bible as the infallible truth, and be suspect of ideas we hear in the world that contradict what we read in the bible. So often we are led in the other direction; dismissing the Bible based on worldly “knowledge.”
Yes, there are mysteries in nature, and incomplete details in the bible accounts of history, that we have yet to understand. However, it is most important to put our faith in the right place, God and his word, and be skeptical of seeming contradictions that are “discovered,” particularly when they are “discovered” by people who reject that God exists.
Psalm 111:10 says “The fear of The Lord is the beginning of wisdom”. Romans 1:19-20. “For the truth about God is known to them instinctively; God has put this knowledge in their hearts. Since earliest times men have seen the earth and sky and all God made, and have known of his existence and great eternal power. So they will have no excuse when they stand before God at Judgment Day”
Dear Lord give us the faith to believe your word first and use the intelligence you gave us to explore and understand your creation. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen

The Bible is the word of God. Everyday of my life I’am reminded of the Everlasting to Everlasting. The heavens declare the glory God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Psalm 19:1 Amen!
Psalm 19 ! What a wonderful Psalm. My heart just sings when I read it. However, even when folks reject God’s word how will they ever explain Israel. The nation of Israel should convience anyone that there is a sovereign God. Amen!
Dear Lord bless Israel and protect her and bless the nations that stand with her. Amen!
