I sometimes wonder if the mind is closer to the flesh than the soul.

 

It was something of a sad moment for me when I realized that apologetics will never save anyone. It was a happier time when I realized that it was still critical to bringing many to the threshold of belief. Nevertheless – faith was required to walk through the door.

 

It seems to me that some of us who were brought to the door by apologetics often linger a bit by the doorstop. We were so rigorous in our logic exercises when we were on the other side of the door that we forgot that faith is exercised on an ongoing basis & when we came into the room we got fat.

 

I think our lives must become a continual exercise in faith…a constant re-belieiving and a continual remembrance of that step into the arms of Christ – otherwise we despair and all seems lost.

 

We were saved, we are being saved, we will be saved.
