Yet so much time and energy spent in the same modern-day formula to exploit whatever possible in the convert’s life to snatch away a logical outcome. I suppose I now understand this seeing just how bright this light of the gospel is capable to blind.

But the gift of God endures which is eternal life. It is not only for the taking, but something we can find ***urance of, everyone, who call upon Him, Jesus!

So when the world says, “Hey Christian, you’re not good enough”, just tell them, you’re right.
Good point Michaell. I see more and more disdain for Christianity in every avenue of life. It is because they don't have ears to hear or eyes to see.
C.S. Lewis said the following," I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen; not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."
I find sometimes in my own life people are annoyed with me because I am joyful or content or at peace, and not in a prideful or overt way but just the fruit of following Christ. I don't know if they are angry because they are not at peace or because I am.
