The Arrogance and the Infatuation of the Philosophers
Since the beginning of the human history philosophers and the greatest thinkers had interpreted and they have tried to explain and to define God, the creation, the universe, the world and the humanity by their own philosophies, intelligence, intellect (nous), faculties and capacities of thinking (noesis), ideas and concepts, speculations; by their own limited knowledge, by their own limited science and by their own reason.
Philosophers, scientists, writers which, in their own arrogance and infatuation, had aspirated to claim and to pretend that they know and understand everything; the universe, the world, the human nature and condition, the laws of the nature, the physical and metaphysical world- sphere- dimension and the phenomenon.
Philosophers and the greatest thinkers claim, pretend to know, to understand all things. They claim, pretend, but in reality they are wrong. They think that they know and understand all things, but the objective reality, the truth is that they are so limited humans beings, unable the know, to understand, to penetrate all things; the true nature of the material things, the substance of the natural laws, the life vast complexity, the mysteries.
It is typical for an atheist, for an philosopher who doesn't believes in God to boast, to be arrogant, to manifest himself as an superior being.
Philosophy in Greek (hilosophia) means, love of wisdom.
Sophia means science, speculative and theoretic knowledge, ethic.
James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
An atheist philosopher, an unbeliever scholar who does not accept God as Creator and Maker of all things; the material and immaterial world, the heaven and the earth, the whole universe, the cosmos, the mankind, can not be humble, because he is full of himself; he is dwelled by haughtiness and infatuation.
Atheists philosophers say that they don't need God and that God doesn't exist. To them God is an idea or the men's invention.
It is true that men; philosophers, scholars had invented and have created ideas of gods, conceptions of gods.
Buddhism, Hinduism, Islamism, Brahmanism, and a lot of tribal religions with their numerous gods, ideas of gods, conception of gods, has been invented and created by men, by philosophers, by scholars.
A man need God to be, to be able to really humble himself before God and before men.
Atheists philosophers are the slaves of their own philosophies, speculations, interpretations, reflections, system of thoughts, hermeneutism, exegeses.
Philosophers Had Interpreted the World
Carl Marx had said; Philosophers had interpreted the world: we must transform it.
Philosophers, atheist philosophers, had interpreted and they are still interpreting the world; the nature, the laws of the nature, the phenomenon, life, death, emotions, feelings, ideas, notions, conceptions, ideologies , systems of thinking, etc, but they had never changed, transformed or revolutionized the world in general, positively, in good.
Philosophers, atheist philosophers, as Marx, Engels, Lenin, Mao, have interpreted and had revolutionized partial the world; eastern Europe, Russia (Soviet Union) China, etc, by doing evil, by performing negative deeds, by killing innocent people, by exterminating masses of people, by repression, by genocide.
Through out the human history, philosophers, scholars, wanted to express, to affirm, to spread out their philosophies, their knowledge, their ideas, their notions and conceptions, their plans, their systems of thinking, their inventions, their versions of interpretation, their subjectivity, their abilities, their competences, their cogito, their faculties, their strategies, their reflections, their meditations, their research result, their arguments, their theories, their hypotheses, their speculations, their judgments, their elaborations, their sciences, their egocentric desires, their experiences, their tests, their examinations, their efforts, their maxims, their words, their books, their writings, their exegeses, their hermeneutic point of view, their assertions and their noema (thinking, faculty of thinking).
Karl Marx, as a philosopher, as a atheist, wanted to change things, wanted to change people, wanted to revolutionize the world with his ideas, with his ideology, with his version of interpretation of the things, with his system of thinking, but he has failed, because he doesn't believed in the Creator of all things, in God the Maker of heaven and earth and who is omnipotent.
Karl Marx's interpretation, vision, ideology, system was wrong, negative, evil.
The Greek philosophers have had their interpretations, have had their hermeneutic version of the world, about the cosmos, about an creator, about the universe, about the metaphysical dimension.
Plato spoke about Demiurge (an worker). The role of this Demiurge (worker) is to work, to transform, to shape the material world into an harmony, and to organize it into a cosmos, and to make the human participation and action possible.
Plato spoke also about an metaphysical Being; the Good, the Supreme Essence.
Plato's idea or conception of a creator, of a maker, a the author of all things has been, very subjective, inexact, divided, imprecise, unclear, incoherent, wrong, utopia.
Plato's references to God doesn't reflect and express the objective reality, the metaphysical dimension, the material world, the immaterial and spiritual world.
The Bible says in Genesis, Chapter 1:
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
1:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
1:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
1:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
1:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
In reality, the metaphysical Being, the Good, the Supreme Essence, the Demiurge does not exist; they are inexistent, they are utopia and they has been invented by Plato with his philosophy, with his interpretation, with his hermeneutic description of the things, of the heaven and earth, of the physical and metaphysical reality, of here and of there.
Not all what people are thinking, are interpreting, are reasoning, are cogitating, are saying are true, right, real, objective, authentic, genuine, pure, existent, immortal and eternal.
Men's philosophies, ideas, speculations, interpretations, points of views, opinions, thinking, feelings are not reflecting one hundred present the pure truth, the universal reality, the physical and metaphysical world.
Philosophers, atheist philosophers, are looking for the reason, for the sense of life, for the meaning, for the prime cause, for determinism by philosophizing, by formulating, by reasoning, by thinking, by meditating, by speculating, by theorizing, by conceptualizing, by cogitating things, phenomenon, mankind, the reality, the world, the universe, the physical reality, the matter and the metaphysical sphere.
Philosophers, atheist philosophers, don't accept the Creator, God, the Maker of heaven and earth; therefore , they create and make, they elaborate their own philosophies, versions, conceptions, notions, theories, hypotheses, ideas, ideologies, systems of thoughts , interpretations, definitions, explanations of the life, about the world, about the material dimension, about us, about the humanity, about death, about the first cause, about the causality, about determinism, about the universal existence, about the cosmos, about the universe.
The Moving Nature
Aristotle, Greek philosopher; 384-322 BC.
Aristotle's definition about God, Creator; Aristotle has defined the nature, the material world in a permanent movement. For the material world, for the nature, for the universe to exist, to function, to move, it is necessary a force, an driving energy, to sustain, to activate them. For Aristotle, God is the prime, the first motor, engine. To him, the earth, the planet is in the centre of the universe, of the cosmos. He spoke also of a sovereign intellect, nous, in a perpetual contemplation and immobile.
Aristotle was a great Greek philosopher, author of a lot of, numerous works, books. By reasoning and reflecting on the nature, on the cosmos, he tried to give an definition, an rational explanation, an coherent sense to them.
Aristotle's definition, explanation, interpretation, hermeneutical description, are so poor and unable to describe and to present objectively, authentically, genuinely, absolutely the material world, the metaphysical reality, the heaven, the earth, the universe, the cosmos, life, the nature, the natural laws, the substance of the things, the quintessence of the nature, the quidditas, the absolute truth, the universal reality as it is, the vast and complex creation, the phenomenon, etc.
The Bible says in Isaiah 57:15 KJV
Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
God of the Bible, God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is the One true God. God exists an He lives in Heaven, in an very, very holy place.
God is the Creator of heaven and earth, the Make of universe, the Author of the material and immaterial world.
From heaven, from the holy place, God rules and governs the material and immaterial world; the heaven and the earth, the universe, the cosmos, the galaxies, our planet, mankind, you and I.
God is an Holy and Perfect God, but He is also an loving God who loves the world, His creation, people, you and I.
God dwells in heaven in an holy place, but He is also everywhere, he is omnipresent, He controls the world, He has mercy and compassion on people, on you and I.
The ideas, the conceptions, the definitions of the philosophers about God are wrong, are lies, are utopias.
God Exists and He is Real
God exists and he lives in heaven, in a holy place, in a very superior sphere.
God of the Bible is not an idea, an concept, He is a true and real God.
Philosophers, atheist philosophers, are wrong; their ideas and conceptions of God, of the Creator, of the heaven, are wrong, are untrue, are lies, are unreal, are utopia.
Atheist philosophers have their own point of view, their own conception, their own notions, their own ideas, their own interpretation, hermeneutic explanation of God, of the Creator, of the creation, of the world, of the universe, of the cosmos, but they do not reflect the objective reality; they are wrong, they are untrue, they are unreal, they are utopia.
Philosophers, ideas, conceptions, notions, definitions, ideologies, systems of thoughts are many in our world, but not all of them are good and right; not all of them reflect the objective reality, the absolute truth.
God is right, philosophers are wrong.
God is eternal, philosophers are mortal.
God lives and dwells in heaven, philosophers live on earth, in a so changing and ephemeral material world.
God knows everything; He is omniscient, philosophers do not know everything; they are so limited human beings.
Philosophy with God is good, positive, useful; it allows and helps us to understand and to penetrate more better the things, the substance of the matter, the quintessence of the things, the nature of the phenomenon, the human behaviors, the human history, the events, the natural laws, life, people, the world, the universe, the cosmos and physical world.
Philosophy without God is bad, negative; it creates and generates sufferance, harm, sadness, nonsense, unhappiness, stress, worry, questions without answers, destructive ideologies, lies, utopias, negative systems of thoughts, irrationalism, immorality, wars, conflicts, divergences, dictatorship, discomfort and sin.
Reform Yourself Before You Reform the World
Philosopher Epictetus had said; Reform yourself before you reform the world.
Epictetus (50-130 AD).
Many philosophers in the human history were tried to change, to reform, to revolutionize the world, people, lives, political regimes, nations, states, situations, circumstances and behaviors. Some of them had changed, had reformed, had revolutionized peoples, nations, lives, political regimes, situations and crisis, positively or negatively.
Mahatma Gandhi has realized his dream, his objective, his aspiration to change, to reform, to revolutionize the political regime, the British colony, the British dominion in India.
Mao Zedong had changed, had reformed, had revolutionized the political regime, and he has settled a new political regime; communist system in China.
In Cuba, the revolutionary Fidel Castro, who has introduced and established the communist system.
Nelson Mandela, in south Africa; after appending many years in prison, finally he was liberated in 1990. In 1994 he became the president of South Africa Republic.
Lenin: Russian intellectual, politician, Marxist, reformer, revolutionary, bolshevist, socialist and communist. He has implemented the communist system in Russia.
Karl Marx: German philosopher, economist and politician, materialist, atheist. He and F. Engels are the founders of the communist system, the Marxist ideology, etc.
Some of these reformers, revolutionaries, philosophers were violent, bellicose, hostile and brutal.
The SON of God, the SON of the living God, the SON of the only One True God was and is the most greater Reformer and Revolutionary.
The Bible says that God had created us, the world, the heaven, the universe and all that exists. The Bible also says that the devil, Satan rebelled against God. Satan is the source and the cause of evil, immorality, lies, perversion, violence, aggression, rebellion, chaos, anarchy, confusion, hostility, hatred and conflicts.
God is love. In His Divine and Infinite Love, God has sent His one and only Son to came in our world, in our human condition, in our sinful and perverted sphere, to suffer and to die for us, and to save us from hell.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
When Jesus, the Son of the living God, was on earth, He has changed, He has reformed, He has revolutionized, radically, many lives, many humans beings.
Jesus, the Son of God, is the same.
Jesus is still changing, and He is still reforming, and He is still revolutionizing lives, humans beings, people.
Jesus is the only one able to truly change, to reform, to revolutionize lives, beings, ideas, mentalities, behaviours, attitudes, thoughts, ideologies and philosophies.
Doesn't exist true and good change, positive and genuine reform, authentic revolution with a person, with an individual who is evil, negative, wicked, immoral, perverse, murderer and dictator.
An sinful man does only sinful deeds, acts, things.
An negative and immoral person performs only immorality and negativity.
An murderer and dictator manifest, express, emanate, vomit only aggression, violence, hatred, hostility and murderer.
God is above the philosophers. God is eternal and infinite.
God's wisdom and knowledge is unlimited, endless and infinite.
The wisdom, the knowledge, the intelligence, the philosophies of the philosophers are limited and finite.
God is Beyond the Human's Reason
Emmanuel Kant (1724-1804) German philosopher.
According to Kant, the moral low in us, in human being, implies God's existence. To him the moral law, the human's morality, has supernatural origin and is mysterious.
In his book "The Critique of Pure Reason", Kant has approached the fact that the precedents philosophers had tried to prove the existence of God by reason, by philosophical concepts, by the rational definitions of the philosophers, and by philosophical arguments.
According to Kant, it is impossible to prove, to demonstrate God's existence by reason, by rational arguments. To him, it is by faith that man, human beings, accept the existence of God.
God exists and He is eternal.
God's existence, God's reality, God's super reality, is beyond the material existence and reality. God is beyond our materialistic dimension( earth planet, galaxies, universe).
God's existence is eternal, immaterial, immortal and infinite.
Human reason is unable to define, to explain, to conceptualize the fact that God is eternal, immortal, immaterial and infinite.
God is beyond the human's reason, conceptions, ideas, definitions, imagination, contemplation, explanations, dissertations, system of thinking, noema (capacity and faculty of thinking).
Kant was and is right by saying, by reasoning, by affirming, by asserting that the human reason, that the philosophies of the philosophers can't and they are not able to explain, to define, to prove God's existence.
It is by faith that we, so limited human beings, men, philosophers, can and are able to accept God's existence.
God created us with reason, with thinking, with capacities and faculties, with capacities to understand the reality in witch we live. But if we take the way of reason, the system of thought of the philosophers, the speculations, the hermeneutic form, the methods of the philosophers, we can not understand, we can't accept the existence of God.
God exists, God is real.
God is the Creator and the Author of heaven and earth, of the entire universe.
God's Divine power, super power is infinite and it has no limit, and it has no end.
Human's reason is limited, partial, measurable, quantifiable, calculable and mortal.
God is not an idea, an concept, an notion, an theory as some philosophers thought and think, as some philosophers wanted and want to think.
God exists and He lives forever.
The reason and the philosophies of the philosophers fail and are not able to understand, to explain, to define, to narrate, to tell, to describe, to fathom, to conceptualize, to measure, to quantify God's existence; the reality of God, the absolute truth and the reality that God is Spirit, that God is eternal, that God is immaterial, that God is immortal, that God is Love, that God is omniscient, that God is omnipotent, that God is omnipresent, that God is infinite.
Philosophers, men, need faith to be able to accept God's existence, God's Divine attributes.
Romans 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
God is in heaven and we are on earth.
God is infinite, we are finite.
The philosophies of the philosophers do not reflect the objective reality of the things.
God's knowledge is infinite, the philosophies of the philosophers are finite, measurable and quantifiable.
By faith we can see God. By faith we can accept Heaven, God's existence, the reality of heaven, the immaterial and the spiritual dimension.
Philosophers need faith to really be positive and objective in their philosophical reflections, in their systems of thoughts, in their meditations and thinking, in their interpretations, in their hermeneutical form, in their speculations, in their methods and techniques of elaborations and presentation and in their dissertations.
By faith, we as Christians, see God, the Creator of all things, the Maker and the author of Heaven and earth.
By faith we see, we do visualize the unseen, the invisible.
Patriarch Abraham had walked with God by faith, and God has blessed him with material prosperity and with peace and hope.
By faith we see that the creature has an Creator.
By faith, we as rational human beings, see that there is no effect without an cause, that does not exist creature without Creator.
Hebrews, Chapter 11
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
11:2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
11:9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
11:10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
11:11 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.
11:12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.
11:13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.
11:14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.
11:15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.
11:16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son.
11:18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
11:19 Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
11:20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
11:21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
11:22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.
11:23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.
11:24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
11:25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
11:26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward.
11:27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.
11:28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.
11:29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.
11:30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.
11:31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace.
11:32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:
11:33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,
11:34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.
11:35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
11:36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment:
11:37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
11:38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
11:39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:
11:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
Eternal, Infinite and Perfection
Rene Descartes (1596-1650) French philosopher, mathematician and physician.
Descartes was an rationalist who wanted to demonstrate, to prove, to analyze, to investigate the world, the nature, everything that exist by reason, by the mean of the reason.
According to Descartes, the concepts like perfection, infinite, eternal as attributes of God, which are in our minds, which dwell in our thinking, that are in our faculty and capacity of reasoning and thinking (noema), come from the metaphysical world, dimension, from God.
Men, people, we as limited and finites human beings, are visited, transited and dwelled in our mind, in our thinking, in our capacity and faculty of thinking and reasoning (noema) by the thoughts, ideas, conceptions and notions that are coming from out side, which are coming from our world and from another world, which come from the material reality and from metaphysical reality, which come from our human dimension and from our Creator who created us, the heaven and the earth and the universe.
God is perfect, eternal and infinite.
The faculties and the capacities of reasoning and thinking of the philosophers are not able to really describe, to explain and to define God's Divine nature and attributes.
Human reason, the faculties and the capacities of reasoning of the philosophers are limited, finite and unable to describe and to define God's Divinity, nature, substance, character and attributes.
God is infinite superior to us, to men, to human brain and intellect (nous), to human capacities and faculties, to our reason, to the laws of the nature, to the creation, to the universe, to our imaginations and contemplations, to the virtual dimension, to the technology, to the human science, to the material world, to the people's conceptions and notions, to the speculations and the philosophies of the philosophers.
God is the Creator and the Maker of Heaven and earth, of the whole and vast universe.
Philosophers wanted and some are still wanting to explain, to describe God's Divine attributes by their capacities and faculties of reasoning, by their system of thinking, but they had failed and they are still failing today.
We need, philosophers need faith and help from God to understand our human reality, the material reality, the nature and the substance of the material things, the creation, the laws of the nature and to be able to accept Him, to be able by His grace to believe in Him and to accept Jesus Christ as our personal Saviour.
God's attributes are perfect; absolute perfect.
We are living is a imperfect, corrupted, sinful, immoral, fallen, ephemeral society, world, material dimension.
In heaven, in the holy place where God lives, in the immaterial and immortal sphere, dimension, everything is perfect, uncorrupted, pure, sublime, amazing, shining, immortal and eternal.
Our reason, our capacities and faculties of reasoning and thinking, the philosophies of the philosophers, can't and are unable to understand, to contemplate, to imagine the heaven, God's Divine nature and attributes.
God's Divine nature, attributes surpass our reason, our intellect ( nous), our capacities and faculties, science, technology, man's brain, human's knowledge, the system of thoughts, the speculations and the philosophies of the philosophers.
Philosophers, Scientifics, scholars are looking for the meaning in life, for the life sense, for the reason, for an explanation to the creation, to the life, to the nature, to the universe, to the life complexity by their reason, by their capacities and faculties of reasoning.
Philosophers are so subjective in their systems of thinking. Philosophers are the prisoners of their own subjectivity witch does not reflect the objective reality of the things, of the nature, of the phenomenon.
Philosophers need faith, need God the Creator of heaven and earth, the Maker of the whole universe, to really be able to understand, to penetrate, to fathom, to measure, to reasoning objectively, to conceptualize the objective reality of the things, our material reality, life complexity, the nature, the laws of the nature, the material world and the immaterial world, the reality of death, the substance of the things, the quintessence of the phenomenon, the biological laws, the cause and the effect, mankind' s history, the illnesses, the bacteria, the viruses, the basils, the universe, the metaphysical dimension, the absolute Truth, the heaven, the reality of the immaterial world and the existence of God.
God is infinite, man, philosophers, scholars are limited, mortals and finites.
God's attributes are infinites, unlimited and eternals.
God is the Creator, the Maker, the Author of heaven and earth; the Creator of the whole universe, the Creator of the material world and immaterial world, the Creator of all things that exist.
God created man, us, human beings, with natural and biological faculties capacities in order to live, that we may be able to exist and to function according to His purpose and plan.
Without God, philosophers are wrong. Without the Creator of the brain, of the intellect, of the human's capacities and faculties, philosophers are on a wrong way, are in a wrong direction and they have invented and have elaborated wrong, negative philosophies, systems of thoughts, ideologies and social systems with tragedies, negative consequences and a lot of victims.
The philosophies of the philosophers are so subjective, limited, speculative, materialistic, individualistic, systematic, theoretic, egocentric and there are plenty of them so immoral, so negatives, so irrational, so hedonistic, so perverse and satanic.
There are a lot of philosophies in our world, in our contemporary society, in our post modern age. Every philosopher has his own subjective philosophy, system of thought, interpretation, hermeneutic form, vision of the things, view point, opinion, and he thinks that he is right and that he has, possesses the truth.
Philosophers are mortals men, so passing away beings, so limited persons, unable to reason and to reflect the objective reality and true of the things, of the phenomenon.
Religious Experiences
William James 1842-1910
William James was an American philosopher and psychologist.
In his book entitled The Varieties of Religious Experience, James wrote, has approached the religion and God.
By seeing, by writing, by analyzing and investigating the religious experiences, the experiences of the believers, James has elaborated his conception of God.
I think James believed in God, but he was not a true believer, an true Christian.
James have seen, have found, has ascertained the fruits of faith, the effect of something real, the practice of something genuine and true, the behaviors of the believers, the lives of Christians, the deeds and the acts of the children of God, the supernatural manifestation of God into the nature, into the universe, the heavenly blessings, the love of Jesus emanated by the Christians, the wonderful creation, the laws of the nature, the goodness of God, etc.
Whenever something is real, when an phenomenon if true, when an movement exists, there is something real, there is an effect, there is an manifestation, there is an emanation and there is an action.
The fact that God exists and He is real, we are real and we exist because He has created us to be and to exist.
I think there are a lot of philosophers like Sartre, Rousseau, Nietzsche, etc who has seen, who had realized that there in no effect without cause, that does not exist creature without Creator, that God exists and He is real, but they didn't wanted to believe in Him and to accept Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour, because they were immoral, because they did not wanted the Bible, God's word, God's commands and principles, the Judeo-Christian morality, Christian values and behaviors in their lives.
The blessings of God, the interventions of God, the manifestation of God's Divine Super Power, the help from God, the miracles from heaven are real and they are into the lives of Christians all around the world.
The philosophers can't deny the existence and the reality of the supernatural miracles and the supernatural events and phenomenon, but they do not want to admit and to accept the cause, the first cause, the Creator, God.
One day God will judge the world, philosophers with their philosophies.
One day God will judge the philosophers for their philosophies without God, for their atheistic systems of thoughts, for their lies, for their utopias, for their poisoned ideas, for their negative ideologies, for their unreal and untrue reflections, for their subjective interpretations and hermeneutics, for their hypocrisies, for their books, for their writings, for their texts, for their immoralities, for their perversities and for their avidities to become famous.
God's children, true Christians, have something, possess something immaterial, something supernatural, something real, something true and genuine in their lives, into their hearts. They have, they possess God in their lives; they have and possess Jesus, the Son of God, the Saviour of the world, our Redeemer.
True Christians, genuine Christians, are dwelled by God's Divine Love and they are leading by the power, by the superpower of God.
We as Christians, as children of God, have, possess the power from God, true hope from Heaven, the force and energy which lead us in life toward Heaven.
The Holy Spirit is in us and with us as Christians, as children of God.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Jesus said;
John 14:14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
The presence of God into the lives of Christians, the super presence of Jesus in our lives is real and true.
People are seeing, some philosophers had seen and are seeing the supernatural manifestations into the lives of God's children.
Supernatural powers, supernatural energies, supernatural phenomenon, supernatural manifestations, supernatural movements, supernatural actions, can be seeing, are visible to us, to people, to philosophers, to those who want to see them and to accept their heavenly origin, their Divine source.
God is the Creator and the Maker of heaven and earth, and the whole universe.
God is everywhere, God is omnipresent. The presence of God, the super presence of God in the life of somebody, can be seen, is visible in manifestations, in deeds, in attitudes, in speech and in behaviors.
Philosophers have ices to see the material reality, the creation, the world, but they don't want to accept the Creator of the material reality, of the creation.
Philosophers have, possess information, culture, intelligence and very developed and evaluated faculties and capacities of understanding and of reasoning, but they think of them selves the world masters, superior to others, high class, world elite, and they don't repent and they don't come to Jesus to be saved.
There are much more arguments and evidences that God exists and that He is real.
Does not exist effect without cause. Does not exist Creation without Creator.
The cosmological argument tells us that logically doesn't exist effect without cause, creation without Creator, matter without an Maker, universe without Author and Designer.
Atheists philosophers and scholars have no logical answer to the first cause, to the formation, to the constitution, to the creation, to the existence of the universe.
God is everywhere, God is omnipresent.
God is the Creator and the Author of Heaven and earth.
By God's Divine power, by God's mighty superpower all things exist. God sustains and governs the heaven and the earth, the material and immaterial world, the universe, the laws of the universe.
Without Creator, creation can not exist; without God, we can not exist.
Atheists philosophers and atheists scholars are studying and investigating the creation, the universe, material and immaterial world, the laws of the nature, the phenomenon, the organic and nonorganic matter, human diversity, life complexity to find out, to understand, to penetrate the substance of things, the nature of the natural laws, the human natural capacities and faculties, the cause and the effect, the biological laws, life and death, galaxies, asteroids, everything that exist, but they don't want to admit, but they don't want to accept the Creator of all things that exist, God the Maker of heaven and earth, the first cause.
If you look at the creation, you can see the power, the superpower of God into it.
If you take a look at the universe with the spender of the galaxies, you can contemplate their Creator, their First Cause, their Maker.
God can be seeing by those who want to see Him everywhere; into the creation, in universe.
God is manifesting His Divine power and His infinite love through the lives of His children.
The creation has an Creator and its Creator is God. Atheists philosophers don't want to accept this reality.
Philosophers are free to think and to philosophy whatever they want to think and to philosophy, but not all that they are thinking and philosophy is true, is real and reflect the objective reality.
We can't understand God through rationalism, through science, through human philosophies, through men culture and knowledge. It is by faith that we begin to understand and to accept Him.
Doesn't matter what men think, what philosophers are thinking and are philosophy, God exists and He controls and governs the world, the universe.
God is the Creator of heaven and earth. Atheists philosophers had created and had invented philosophies without God, atheist systems of thoughts, utopias, unrealistic speculations, immoral pleasers and non natural satisfactions, social systems which has generated and has caused crisis and tragedies, ideologies that had generated wars and genocide with millions and millions of victims.
Whom are you trusting? God, the Creator of heaven and earth? or the limited and mortal philosophers without God?.
Trust God, not ephemeral and mortal men, philosophers. God is faithful and He will never deceive and fail you.
Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Life with God has sense, future, hope and victory.
Life without God has no sense, has no future, has no hope and has no victory.
Philosophers without God, without God the Creator of all things, are philosophy wrongly, badly, unrealistically, negatively and non objectively.
True wisdom and genuine knowledge come from God our Creator.
God is sovereign and He gives wisdom and knowledge to His servants.
Becoming Christian
Kierkegaard Soren (1813-1855)
Kierkegaard was an Danish philosopher who lived in Copenhagen. He was raised in a Lutheran environment where he studied theology.
Kierkegaard's philosophy, reflection was on the dramas of the human existence, on the anguished solitude of the individual in opposition with the collective and the frozen sovereignty of the reason.
Kierkegaard had studied the Bible, the Christianity and he understood the word of God, God, God's plan for him and for mankind.
The Bible has the answers to our problems, to our requests, for our rational thinking, for our reason, for mankind. Into the Bible we find who God is, who we really are, the genuine sense of life, about heaven, about life after death, about life post-mortem, about material and immaterial world and about our Saviour Jesus Christ.
By reading and by studying the Bible, Kierkegaard had accepted God and he started to believe in Him. I don't think that Kierkegaard had accepted God, God's reality- super reality, Jesus Christ as Redeemer and Saviour, by the mean of reason, through the rationalistic and speculative methods, strategies and philosophic system of thoughts, but I think he had accepted God, Jesus as Saviour, into his life, by faith.
Kierkegaard has seen the human situation and condition, the anomalies, the sinful lives, immorality, the solitude, the dramas and the official religious system from that time and he began to devote and to consecrate himself to study the Bible and to fight, as an Christian, against the official religious, against the human solitude, against the human dramas, and against the anomalies.
Kierkegaard was an philosopher, but his philosophy did not set him away from God, from the Creator, from the first cause, from reflecting on God's existence and super reality. He realized that God is real and that people need Him in their lives in a daily basis to face tomorrow, to be happy, to find out the true an the genuine sense of life.
For Kierkegaard to become Christian, to be converted, to be saved by God's infinite grace, to be reconciled with God through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, is the most decisive thing that a man can become.
Kierkegaard was right. To become Christian, true Christian, genuine Christian, a child of God, a man of God by God's Divine grace, is the most important, is the most crucial, is the most vital, is the most essential, is the most sublime, is the most extraordinary thing- act-deed that a man, that a human being can do in his earthly life, in this biological for of life, in this material and ephemeral life.
Becoming Christian, genuine Christian, means to accept by faith Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour in your life, in our heart.
Becoming Christian, true Christian, means to repent and to ask God to forgive you of your sins.
Becoming Christian, authentic Christian, means to be born again, totally changed, radically revolutionized (metanoia in Greek) by the super power of God, by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Becoming Christian, a child of God, means starting walking with Jesus daily each step of your life; loving Him, doing God's Will.
Becoming Christian, a new man in Christ, means to take your cross daily and to follow Jesus till the end of your life.
Becoming Christian, a man saved by God's grace, means living for God.
Becoming Christian, life with Jesus, means accepting God's will in our lives.
Becoming Christian, a human being dwelled by God's Divine Love, means to be a servant of God Almighty.
Becoming Christian, an instrument in God's Mighty Hand, means to accept in your life Jesus Christ as Lord and Master.
Becoming Christian, an ambassador of God on earth, means to speak the word of God to people.
Becoming Christian, a new creature in Christ, means to spread out the Gospel, the Good New everywhere.
Becoming Christian, an happy human being, means to have a victorious life in Christ.
Becoming Christian, a being loved by God, means to accept whatever God desires for your life.
Becoming Christian, a traveler in this passing and ephemeral world, means to love more heaven than earth.
Becoming Christian, a messenger of heaven on earth, means to spread out God's message to people.
Becoming Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ, means to follow Jesus in any situations, circumstances and passage of your life.
Becoming Christian, a loving man, means to love your neighbor, your enemy, unconditionally with God's Divine and infinite Love.
Becoming Christian, a man of prayer, means to pray for people, for those who do not know Jesus Christ.
Becoming Christian (a man who brings hope) means to bring the heavenly hope to those who do not have the hope of eternal life.
Becoming Christian (a person dwelled by God) means to stand up for the right cause, to possess and to emanate Christian morality, to speak up God's truth and to preach the word of God to people.
Becoming Christian (a good man) means to become what God wants you to become and to be in this world.
Becoming Christian (a positive and moral man) means to represent Christian values on earth.
Becoming and being Christian (genuine and true Christian) in your society, in your world, is possible only by God's Amazing Grace.
It is by faith and by God's Divine Grace that a man becomes an true and genuine Christian.
Man by his own power, capacities and natural faculties can't and is not able to really become an true and a genuine Christian.
To become an true and a genuine Christian, man needs first of all to come to Jesus Christ and to ask Him forgiveness for his sins, and to accept Him, the Son of the living God, into his life as personal Saviour.
In John Chapter 3 Jesus said to Nicodemus:
John 3:1-8
John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
It is by God's Divine Grace that a man becomes a true Christian.
Only Jesus Christ is able to truly change, to transform and revolutionize radically lives, beings, people. Only Jesus is able to make them true and genuine Christians.
Man needs an supernatural power- energy that comes from above, from heaven, from our Creator, from God, to become a new man, to become born again, to become an true and genuine Christian.
Are you an Christian?
Are you a new man in Christ?
Are you born again?
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Pascal's Wager
Pascal Blaise (1623-1662)
Pascal was an philosopher, theologian, mathematician, inventor, writer and physicist.
Pascal was born on 1623, in Clermont-Ferrand, France.
Since he was young, he has manifested a strong interesting, and he had a real aptitude for the sciences. In 1642 he invented the Pascaline, an early calculator, and he has published an essay of geometry. He also validated Torricelli's theory concerning the cause of barometrical variations.
In 23 November 1654, Pascal has experienced an thunderous night: an special night, an night when he had his conversion.
Pascal's wager: in the apologetic thinking and philosophy, Pascal's wager is an argument for men that it's an gain to believe in God.
We can define Pascal's wager in following terms:
Believing in God is a gain for men.
God exists and He lives forever. God exists and He is real, no matter what we, people, philosophers thinks about Him, God is still God the Creator of heaven and earth.
If we believe in God and accept him as Creator and Maker of heaven and earth, it is for our best; it is for our benefit.
God wants our best, our salvation.
If we believe in God and if we do His will, and if we keep his commandments and principles, it is for our best, it is for our interest and benefit.
If God doesn't exist and if we believe the Bible and what the Bible says about God, what are we loosing? Are we loosing some material pleasers and satisfactions with tragic finality? some vices?.
God exists and He is real!
If we believe in God and accept Him as Creator and Maker of heaven and earth, it is for our best and it is for our salvation.
God's commandments, rules, principles are good for us; for men, for people.
The Bible is true: the Bible is the word of God. What the Bible says is true and will happen, will take place.
If we read the Bible, the word of God, and do, and apply, and practice whatever it says, it is for our good; it is for our best, it is for our happiness, it is for our salvation.
With God man is happy, joyful, good, positive, peacemaker and victorious.
Believing in God; believing in the Creator and the Maker of heaven and earth, the universe, the material and immaterial world, life is wonderful: life is true and genuine life; life is blessed; life is easy because God protects and sustains it; life is an abundant life.
If we gain, we gain everything; If we lose, we lose nothing.
If someone believes in God and if he does God's will, he is an blessed man; he is a happy human being.
God exists, no matter what we think of Him.
God is real, no matter what philosophers are thinking about Him.
God is infinite superior to philosophers and their philosophies.
Pascal had accepted within his life God, the Creator of heaven and earth, Jesus, by faith and not by some philosophical techniques and methods.
Pascal was a very intelligent man; an great philosopher and scholar, but he came to God, to Jesus Christ, by humbling himself before God and His Divine Super Power.
There is someone who is infinite superior in wisdom, knowledge, intelligence and power than men, than the philosophers and their limited and finite capacities and faculties; and that someone is God the Maker and the Creator of heaven and earth.
Pascal has met that someone:
God who is the source of the positive reason;
God who is the source of enlightenment;
God who is Alpha and Omega;
God who is the source of the absolute truth; God who is the source of the true knowledge.
Only God knows everything and controls everything. Only God is omniscient. Men, philosophers, do not know everything, and they are not omniscient.
People, philosophers, can find God if they come to God by faith and humility, and by renouncing to their selfishness, arrogance and infatuation.
Nietzsche's Philosophy
Nietzsche (Friedrich, 1844-1900)
Nietzsche was born in Rochen (Saxe), Germany. He studied philology at the university of Bonn. He has destined himself to theology, but soon he lose faith.
When he read Schopenhauer's philosophy, he found his philosophical vocation.
Nietzsche's philosophy, system of thinking (noema) is against the traditional values; against Judeo- Christian morality, ethic, and against modern culture. He has protested against all the aspects and elements, in what he called passive nihilism, which has source in Judeo-Christian values and in socratism.
Nietzsche lived in a Christian nation, protestant culture and puritan environment, but he was hostile to the Bible; to Christian rules and principles. He didn't wanted God, Christian values and Christian rules into society, in his people, into his environment, in his mentality, in his philosophy, in his system of thinking.
Nietzsche detested and hated Christianity, Judeo-Christian values and God.
Why has Nietzsche rejected faith and God?
Nietzsche chose to reject faith, Christianity, God. He chose to combat against God, against Christian morality. He was an ephemeral and mortal man who chose to fight against an eternal and immortal God.
Nietzsche is dead and is no more in our world, in our material dimension.
God is immortal and eternal.
Man, man, who are you to fight and to combat against superior power, force, energy than your limited and inferior power, force, intelligence and competence?
Man, man, who are you to stand against the Creator of heaven and earth?
Man, man, who are you to critique and to speak against the Truth, against the Absolute Truth?
Man, man, how dare you to judge and to denigrate the word of God; the Holy Bible?
Man, man ( mortal mortality ), how can you address to God offences and blasphemies?
Man, man, ( limited and disabled creature) how can you declare and state, there is no God; there is no Creator?
Man, man; poor man, do you think that you are able to fight against the truth, against the Absolute Truth, against the word of God, against the Creator of heaven and earth?
All those who fought against the truth, against the Bible, against the church of Christ, against God, were defeated by God, and they are no more.
You can't stand and fight against someone who is more stronger than you; against a super power that is infinite superior to you; against God.
You can't fight against someone who is more stronger and more powerful than you and your capacities, means and abilities.
Man can not fight against God, because God is the Creator and man is the creature.
God is infinite superior to man. Man is too inferior to God, the Creator of all things.
Men's philosophies are utopic and very subjective.
Philosophers need God to have an positive and objective philosophies.
In one of his book (The Gay Science) Nietzsche has approached God, the death of God, according to his statement.
Quotation from his writing:
Have you heard of that madman who lit a lantern in the bright morning hours, ran to the market, and cried incessantly, I seek God! I seek God! As many of those who do not believe in God were standing around just then, he provoked much laughter.
Whither is God, he cried. I shall tell you. We have killed him- you and I. All of us are murderers ... God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him ...
Nietzsche is dead! God is alive!
Nietzsche died in 1900. God is immortal and eternal.
How can a mortal man kill and immortal God?
How can the creature kill the Creator?
How is there possible that an limited, unable, powerless and without superpower human being assassinate and kill God, the Creator of heaven and earth?
God created man with free will (numen), liberum albitrum. Man can choose good or evil, God or satan; to be positive or to be negative, to be God's child or satan's servant, to serve God or to serve satan, to glorify God or to glorify satan.
God is sovereign and He has the absolute right to do whatever He wants or will to do . God is omniscient and omnipotent and He controls everything: the universe, the earth, the world, the laws of the nature, but He lets man to choose good or evil, life or death, blessings or curses, divine protection or man's protection, relationship with God or life without Him.
Some people choose life without God- life without our Creator instead of life with God; life blessed and protected by Him.
Some others people believe in God, but they don't do God's will; they don't like God too much in their lives and in their businesses.
In Deuteronomy chapter 30: 19 God said: This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him.
Nietzsche choose life without God, life without our Creator. Nietzsche invented and elaborated and atheistic philosophy, an system of thought anti God, against God, against moral law that comes from God.
Nietzsche fought against the truth, against the absolute truth, but he lost.
Nietzsche wanted to change, to revolutionize people; the society, the world, but he had failed.
Nietzsche's philosophy has seduced his posterity and it is still seducing today people, thinkers, philosophers, and they have adopted it, and they are still adopting it today as a reference and life style and way of life.
If an blind man leads another blind man, they both will fall into the pit.
Evil is ephemeral and one day it will disappear forever.
Truth stands up forever.
Lies and utopias destroy people's lives and lead them to hell.
Nietzsche is dead! God lives forever.
Nietzsche was an limited, finite and mortal man. God is immortal, infinite and eternal.
Nietzsche's philosophy, ideas, system of thought soon will stop and cease to exist and to influence people's lives, thinking.
Jesus said in John 14:6
I am the way and the truth and the life.
If you walk on this way, you will go to heaven.
If you accept this genuine and absolute truth, you are going to be happy and saved.
If you have Jesus as your personal Lord, Master and Saviour, you have life: true life, authentic life, pure life, genuine life, abundant life, eternal life.
Jesus is the only way to God.
Profession of Faith
Rousseau Jean-Jacques (1712-1778)
Rousseau was a Genevan philosopher, writer and composer. He was born in Genève, in a Christian Calvinist family, but when he was sixteen old, he leaved his family.
Rousseau's famous books are Emile and On the social contract. Rousseau's philosophy has influenced the French Revolution and the educational and sociological system.
Being born in a Calvinist church, Rousseau received an Calvinist education, but he converted to Catholicism, and soon he had turned back to Calvinism; later he became deist.
In his book Emile, he exposed his famous profession of faith "Savoyard Vicar".
He had developed his first thesis concerning moral conscience as divine instinct, immediate sentiment and universal.
The profession of faith of the Savoyard vicar presents the religious part of education; method and system of education. He points the existence of an inner light as the source of truth. According to him, the knowledge of God lies in the observation of the natural order.
Therefore, Christianity is not the only true religion, since, according to him, any religion that identifies God as the Creator and preaches morality and virtues, is true.
Religions, or political and social systems was created and invented by men- by the thinkers and philosophers as form and mean to dominate and to control nations and masses of people. Religion is also men's effort and struggle to explain, to justify, to give a rational sense to the material world, to the material reality, to life's complexity, to the universe.
In the Bible we find the answers to all ours problems, questions, reason. The Bible tells us that God created the heaven and earth, and that He is a God of love.
When a man, a human being like Rousseau rejects God, the Biblical Truth, the historical evidences; that man, that philosopher, that scientific invents, creates and elaborates his own system of thinking, his own subjective interpretation and explanation, his own materialistic hermeneutic method based on theories, hypothesis, human contemplations and man materialistic ideas.
God created man with natural faculties and capacities. He has putted into the human constitution the reason and the conscience to be able to distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong, positive and negative, moral and immoral.
God is sovereign! The whole creation; the laws of the nature obey the God's Divine superpower and Will. The material and immaterial world was created be God.
Human being needs God, the Creator, the Author and the Maker of morality; the Author and the Maker of the moral law; the Author and the Maker of the moral conscience.
Morality without God?
Moral conscience without it's Author?
No! There is no morality, true and authentic morality, without God the source of morality.
God is Perfect! Absolute Perfection is an attribute of God.
By his perverted nature, man is imperfect and immoral.
Philosophers talk about morality, about moral conscience, but they systematically make abstraction and don't want to hear of God who is the Creator of the moral law.
Without God, the source of the genuine morality, there is no true and genuine morality.
Rousseau knew of the Christian morality, of what the Bible says about God, about Jesus, but he didn't wanted to believe and to accept God , the Creator of the heaven and the earth, Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour.
When a man, when a philosopher is conscious that God exists, that there is a Creator, and he rejects God, Jesus as personal Saviour, that man, that philosopher opens the door to an atheistic system of thought that denies God's existence.
Writing and doing something for God our Creator, for Jesus our Saviour, is marvelous, sublime and noble.
It is good, it is great to serve God; to do His Divine Will, to be the ambassador of heaven on earth, to be indwelled by the Absolute Truth.
Serving God and walking with Him, life has true sense, purpose, objective and glorious end, finality.
God is the source of the true and the real life.
If you have God in your life, you have and possess everything.
Heaven and earth, the whole universe belongs to God: they are God's property; they were created by Him.
The philosophies of the philosophers reflect and represent their subjective, finite and limited thinking, system of thinking, ideas, notions and conceptions.
My dear reader, choose God and His word, not the philosophies of the philosophers.
Choose the truth, Absolute Truth, not the relative, partial, ephemeral, subjective and utopic truth of the philosophers.
Choose the Word of the Living God, not the word, the writing, the books of the ephemeral and mortal philosophers.
Choose the Creator of heaven and earth, not the lies, the pseudo ideas, the utopic philosophies invented and elaborated by the philosophers.
Choose Jesus, the Son of God, the Saviour of the world, the Redeemer.
There were, there are, there will be philosophers in the human history who had tried, who are trying and who will try to change, to revolutionize and to reform people's thinking, people's reflections, people's system of thoughts, people's mentalities by their philosophies, by their systems of thinking, by their ideas and by their strategies of seducing human masses. The philosophies of the philosophers have influenced, are influencing and will influence people's thinking, people's mentalities, people's system of thought.
You may choose Jesus, you may choose life: true life, authentic life, genuine life, absolute life, eternal life.
Philosophers invent and elaborate abstract conceptions, notions, ideas to explain, to define material reality, immaterial reality, metaphysical reality.
God is sovereign. God is the Creator and the Author of the material and immaterial reality.
Whatever God says is true. Whatever God does is good, positive and real.
Trust God the Creator and the Author of your life, not the mortal and limited philosophers.
Trust Jesus, the Son of God, who died for you, and who loves you, and who wants your best, not philosophers who want your money, not philosophers who seek for human glory.
Trust God who is the source of life, not ephemeral and mortal philosophers.
Atheist philosophers are arrogant and infatuate: they think of themselves that they are superior human beings, an superior cast, so erudite. They have a subjective and selfish overestimation of themselves, but in reality they are not.
The Bible says in James Chapter 4 Verse 6: God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.
Augustine of Hippo
Saint Augustine (Aurelius Augustinus, 354-430)
Augustine was born in Thagaste (Souk-Ahras, Algeria). He was study in Carthage where he established an school of rhetoric. Augustine was seduced by Manichaeism, but when he read and studied Plotinus, he had abandoned dualism when he found in Plotinus's philosophy that only the good alone is positive. Augustine was raised in paganism and is a Christian culture, because of his mother. In 386 he converted to Christian faith and decided to consecrate his life to study and meditation. The circumstances and the situation of that time he had been compelled to an active and polemic life of bishop. His famous books are: The Confessions (13 autobiographical books of Augustine's conversion, theology, spirituality and philosophy, written in Latin).
Augustine's first experience has been the one on deception: he realized that the material pleasers, the ephemeral satisfactions, things from the so passing away world, make man, human being empty, unsatisfied, unhappy, sad, frustrated, anxious, without rest, slave to his own destroying pleasers and negative satisfactions and depressed.
Augustine realized that life with natural and non-natural pleasers, sinful life, bring only discomfort, anxiety, perturbations, frustrations and unhappiness. After his conversion, he had experienced that only God, by his Divine Super Power, can radically change; can truly revolutionize man's heart- man's life. Only God, the Author and the Creator of heaven and earth is able to make and to perform an authentic change, an genuine conversion, a real metanoia.
The radical change, the metanoia, can lead man's heart to authentic satisfaction which is the appeasement of desire being find its own genuine object: Absolute, God, according to Augustine.
A life radically changed, a human being truly revolutionized is an new person and desires only God's divine Will, desires good and positive things, desires something that satisfy God, desires God's plans for his life, desires temperately material things that are satisfying his natural and biological needs.
A sinful nature, a materialistic human being, desires only sinful pleasers; desires only materialistic pleasers; desires material possessions from this material world; desires material things which are satisfying his body- his material dimension- his ephemeral and mortal materiality.
Man without God, materialistic life, atheist human being is the slave of the material satisfactions and pleasers from this passing, temporal and ephemeral material and physical world.
Sinful desires are negative and bring only discomfort, stress and dissatisfactions. There is no inside comfort and peace into the life where the material desires, where the sinful passions, where the non-natural pleasers are and reign.
Augustine saw and experienced that life without the Creator, that life without God is nonsense-meaningless and so sad.
Material pleasers and material satisfactions are feeding only the body; are feeding only the human matter; are feeding only man's materiality. Man's soul can be feed and satisfied only with Spiritual food. Human being's heart can be feed and satisfied only with immaterial food which comes from God the Creator of life and everything that exist.
Pleasers which come from the things and the objects of this material and ephemeral world, are satisfying partially human being. In fact, they are satisfying temporary man's material dimension; they are feeding ephemerally the human being's mortal materiality.
Immateriality and materiality are two opposed and antagonized things, realities.
Soul and body are two different entities.
In Greek soul is psuche and means life.
In Latin soul is anima and means life or breath.
Body in Greek is soma. Man's soul, man's immateriality, man's immaterial entity, needs Spiritual food, immaterial food to work, to function and to live. Jesus said in John, Chapter 6, Verse 35:
John 6:35 I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
God made man soul and body, immaterial entity and material entity. Only God, the Creator and the Maker of man, knows what man, what man's life needs to exist, to live, to work and to be happy. There are people who are dead Spiritually and who have only material, biological life. They are living for here in this material and ephemeral world only. They live only to satisfy their body, their material entity with material and biological food and material pleasers. Jude verse 12: These men are blemishes at your love feasts, eating with you without the slightest qualm- shepherds who feed only themselves.
In the City of God, Augustine shows that two cities coexists in this material world, but these two cities have different end, finality. The city that is from this material dimension, from this ephemeral world, has as principle selfishness, egocentrism, narcissism and the cult of the individual. Material city that belongs to this material world, is temporary, ephemeral, imperfect, uncomfortable and will be no more.
Those who live and dwell in the material city, in this physical dimension, in this temporary sphere, in this ephemeral and material world, are not entirely and fully satisfied. Living only for earthly city, living only for this material and biological life, is sad; is not enough, is insufficient, is not the true life, is not the abundant life, is not the genuine life.
Do you live only for now, for here in this material city, for here in this so passing and so ephemeral world? or you are living for an city from another world; for heaven, for eternal life?
Material city from this material world is and it exists today, but I am not sure it will be tomorrow. If you live and build your life; your human existence, your ontology, your materiality, your entire human being on unstable things, on mortal matter, on ephemeral substance, on non essential phenomenon, on so passing events, on this material entity and dimension, on this temporary world, you will fail; you are going to lose, you will not successfully succeed in your life.
You should look beyond matter, beyond the material and physical city, beyond the material world; at immaterial things, at metaphysical realities, at superior spheres, at eternal and immortal substance, at Spiritual things, at heaven, at God who had created them.
Look at heaven, not at earth.
Look at immaterial things, not at material things.
Look at immortal realities, not at mortal realities.
Look at eternal phenomenon, not at ephemeral phenomenon.
Look at Jesus who loves you, not at limited and mortal men. Look at God, the Creator of the entire universe, not at the so passing material creation.
Jesus said in John chapter 18 verse 36: My kingdom is not of this world.
The Bible tells us about heaven, about the kingdom of God, about a city called new Jerusalem. Heaven, the kingdom of God and new Jerusalem are the immaterial realities; are the eternal realities. Our material reality, our physical world, is temporary, ephemeral and mortal, but heaven, the kingdom of God and new Jerusalem are eternal. In heaven with God, the angels and all the saints saved by Jesus Christ are unspeakable- ineffable joys, unfailing love, absolute peace, truth rest, eternal harmony. In heaven, in the new Jerusalem, there will be no more suffering, no more sadness, no more hatred, no more wars, no more hostility, no more lies, no more immorality, no more death, no more perversion, no more imperfection, no more aggression, no more violence, no more tears, no more fear, no more military conflicts, no more utopias, no more hypocrisy, no more dictatorships, no more envy, no more sorrow and no more crimes.
Life on earth is ephemeral and it has an end, an finality. Life in heaven is immaterial and eternal. Eternity in heaven, eternity in paradise, eternity in the New Jerusalem with God is amazing and sublime. Heaven is eternal, the world is corrupted and sinful.
What do you prefer? to live only for this world, for this material dimension? or for both: for this passing, ephemeral and temporary material world and for heaven, for immaterial reality, for eternal life , for the kingdom of God? We as human beings live and exists in this biological form of life. As immaterial entity we need immaterial and Spiritual food to be able to really live.
A true child of God, a genuine Christian live in this material world, body and soul, immaterial entity and material entity only for his Creator, only for God, only for Jesus Christ, who died for him to save him. Paul said in Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.
Genuine Christian lives for God. Atheist man, materialistic philosopher, live only for this world; live only for this material and biological form of life. It is so sad to live only for the materialistic and biological life.
World is temporary, heaven is eternal. You may choose heaven, not earth. You may choose immaterial and eternal sphere, place.
People who live only for the material world; only for this physical and biological life, are not and will be never satisfied and happy.
You were created by God and you need Jesus in your life to be truly satisfied and happy. The world can't satisfy and make you happy. The material sphere is not able to satisfy and make you happy. You need something more! You need an immaterial and Spiritual food from heaven- from God.
You are God's creature and he loves you, and wants you to be happy. Only God, the Author and the Creator of your life, can feed you and make you happy, in this ephemeral material world. You can't find out in this material reality what your soul needs; what your immaterial dimension needs to be satisfied and happy. What you need is Jesus, the Saviour of the world, the Son of the living God, the Redeemer of mankind, the Lamb of God Almighty, who died for you on the cross to save you from hell.
Matter feeds and satisfies only the matter. Things, objects, products from this material world, feed and satisfy only man's material entity. You can't feed and satisfy your soul, your immaterial dimension, with things from this world, with material objects that belong to this ephemeral material world. In this world, in this material reality, there is much instability, there is much sadness, there is much unhappiness.
You are an human being constituted by two entities: soul and body, immaterial entity and material entity. Your soul needs Jesus to live within it and to satisfy it with His Divine presence. Your Spiritual dimension needs Spiritual food from God to be satisfied and happy. Live for the Creator of heaven and earth, not for the material things from this material and ephemeral world. Live for your Creator and Maker, who made and created you to be an human creature- an human being.
Our material world, the earth, the whole universe, all the constellations, the material reality one day will pass away; one day they will cease to exist, because they are temporary and not eternal. God is eternal. The world, the earth, the material reality, have an beginning and an end; they have an finality. The planet earth, the universe, the material reality have an origin; have an history and one day an finality.
God exists and one day philosophers, scholars, atheists will see that He exists and He is real. We are living in an age, in an time of God's Grace! Today atheists philosophers and scholars have the opportunity and the chance to repent and to come to Jesus our Redeemer and Saviour.
2 Corinthians 6:2 I tell you, now is the time of God's favour, now is the day of salvation.
Today is the day for the most important decision of your life.
Today you can be forgiven by Jesus Christ, who died for you on the cross to save you from hell.
Today you can say yes to God and no to this sinful and perverse society.
Today you can become a new person; a new human being; a new man in Christ. Today you can start a new beginning with Jesus.
Today you can be delivered, washed, cleaned of your sins, stress, guiltiness, anxieties, immorality and violence.
God exists!
The word of God is true!
What the Bible says is true!
Material and biological life one day will pass away, one day they will cease to be and to exists. Heaven, earth, the whole universe, material world and reality one day will disappear and they will be no more. But God, who is the Creator and the Maker of the material world, of the heaven and earth, lives forever and ever more, because He is immortal and eternal. The word of God is true and genuine. The word of God never changes.
Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
Men's words, the philosophies of the philosophers, the systems of thoughts of the philosophers are relative, limited, unable to really explain and define, objectively, the world, the material reality, the phenomenon of the nature, the laws of the nature, human nature, the complexity and the variety of the creation, the universe, the cosmos, the galaxies, life and death, the social reality, the causalities of the phenomenon, the determinations of the processes, the substances of the things, etc.
If you listen to the philosophers and their systems of thoughts, you will never get the answers to your questions and dilemmas. If you listen to Jesus, the Son of God, you will get the answers to your questions, problems, dilemmas, suffering, stress, anxiety, sadness and unhappiness.
Jesus, the Son of the living God, is the answer to the world; to people, to the nations, to the masses, to mankind, to you.
Jesus is the solution for our society today.
Jesus is the antidote for those who are addicted to drugs.
Jesus is the doctor for the ill and sick.
Jesus is the source of the true water.
Jesus is the good shepherd of the flock.
Jesus is the hope for the future.
Jesus is the only one who really can understand and help you.
Jesus is the true, the absolute true.
Jesus is the only way to heaven, to God.
Jesus is the Lord of lords.
Jesus is the King of all kings.
Jesus is the Prince of Peace.
Jesus is the Redeemer of the world.
Jesus is the Saviour of humanity.
Jesus is unique and nobody from this world is like Him. Men, philosophers are ephemeral and mortal, but Jesus never changes; He is immortal. Men, philosophers have a beginning and an end, but Jesus is the beginning and the end, the Alpha and Omega. Imposters came in this world, now they are gone. Jesus is the same today, tomorrow and forever.
There is Only One Way to Heaven
Jesus is the only way to heaven.
Jesus said in John 14:6;
John 14:6 I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Philosophers with their philosophies and systems of thoughts are not able to lead you to God, the Creator of the universe, the Author and the Maker of the heaven and earth. Philosophers can not help you in your need; in your troubles, in your anxiety, in your stressful state, in your depression, in your restless soul, in your aspirations of becoming an better and positive person, in your unhappiness. Only Jesus, the Son of the Living God, can and is able to help you in your situation and human condition.
Philosophers are limited and mortal men and one day they will die and cease to exist in this biological form of life. Don't trust them, trust God who loves you and who wants your best and your salvation. Come, right now, to Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for you, for your sins, to save you from the eternal damnation, to save you from hell.
The ways of the philosophers, the philosophies of the philosophers, the systems of thoughts of the philosophers, corrupt and lead man, masses of people, from sadness and stress to an utopian hope; from Judeo- Christian morality and values to secular morality and values systems; from the Absolute Truth to subjective and relative truth; from the historical documents and evident facts to hypothesis and theories; from an sinful nature to an sinful lifestyle; from life without God to hell.
Jesus is the only way to God.
Jesus lead you to heaven, to God, if you let Him to do so. The world, people, philosophers, lead you to hell, if you keep trusting them. Heaven is real. Hell is real. Jesus came in our material world to suffer and to die for our sins and transgressions. Jesus only can save us from hell, from the eternal damnation.
There are a lot of ways, philosophies, systems of thoughts, mentalities, social systems in our world, invented and elaborated by men, philosophers, by the scholars, to dominate and to control people; to dominate and to control the society; to dominate and to control masses.
Men, philosophers, scholars, are not perfect, omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent.
God is perfect, omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, immortal and eternal.
Don't waste your time, money and energies with the utopian philosophies of the philosophers.
Only Jesus can save us. Only Jesus is able to give us peace, true peace, genuine peace, divine peace.
Jesus is the only way to heaven, to God. Are you on this way? Do you realize that He is the only way to heaven, to God.
Jesus is the only way to heaven, to God, not the philosophers, not the scientists, not the scholars, not men.
If you start to walk on this way, on Jesus's way, you are going to become a new person in Christ. Jesus will set you free of your sins, from you sinful nature and condition. If you walk with Jesus in your ephemeral journey of your life, and if you do God's will, God will bless you and help you and protect you, wherever you are and go.
The philosophies of the philosophers lead you, lead people to sin, to sadness, to stress, to immorality, to an life style without hope, to depression, to anxiety, to hell.
Come to Jesus! Only Jesus can help you and save you from hell.

Charge GOD with error if you please, tell Him that His Book is not what it ought to be ... Blessed BIBLE, Thou art all truth."

Put Your Hope in God, Not in the Philosophers
In a changing world, in a ephemeral material reality, in a corrupted-violent-perverse and immoral society, in a world with climate change, in a situation with wars and military conflicts, in a postmodern society, in a materialistic and ago-centric evaluated society, I am suggesting to you to put your trust in God, not in mortal men; not in the limited philosophers.
We are limited, finite and mortal men.
God is infinite and eternal.
Come to God and believe in Him, not in mortal men; not in limited and finite philosophers- thinkers.
Lots of people in our contemporary society are hopeless and pessimistic concerning their lives, families, and the future.
Hope is an phenomenon, an force which attract people, their desires of making projects and plans for building a better society, future.
Men can not live without hope. Men need hope for living. But there are people who put their hope in politicians, governors, philosophers and material things from this material and ephemeral world.
In Psalm 25:3 we read;
Psalm 25:3 No one whose hope is in you will ever be put to shame, ...
Jesus is the true, the genuine hope for our contemporary society, for people, for the whole world.
Hope, true hope, genuine hope has its origin and source in Heaven, in God, the Creator of the universe.
Do you have hope? Do you possess the true and the genuine hope that comes from God? Are you an man or an woman of hope? Are you an optimistic and realistic man or woman? Is Jesus the Lord and the Master of your life?
If your hope is in men, in philosophers and in their subjective and materialistic philosophies, than you are going to be disappointed and hopeless.
Don't put your hope in mortal men, in finite and limited scholars, in subjective philosophers. Put your hope in God, who loves you and who can help you.
Jesus, the Son of God, is the hope for you; for people, for our contemporary society, for the hopeless, for the helpless, for the oppressed, for the world.
There is an deficit of hope, true and genuine hope, in our world. Individuals, people, are living without hope, hopeless in a daily basis. People are living for ,, now here" only, for the material pleasers only, for erotic satisfactions only, for the so passing and so ephemeral pleasers and satisfactions from this material world.
What hope the philosophers are presenting, are bringing and proposing to the world- to people, to our contemporary society, to you?
If you read the books, philosophies of the atheist and agnostic philosophers, you will soon realize that there is no hope, true hope, genuine hope, authentic hope, non-relative hope, absolute hope.
All is relative, uncertain, subjective, temporary, unstable, and ephemeral for the atheist and agnostic philosophers.
There is no hope, true hope, genuine hope, authentic hope, perfect hope, absolute hope, without God, into the lives where Jesus is absent, in a atheist society.
If you believe in God, if you have Jesus in your soul and life, my dear friend, then you have and possess the true hope, genuine hope, authentic hope, absolute hope.
Man can not live without hope. Unbelievers, non-Christians, live with hopes from this material world: temporary hope, ephemeral hope, utopic hope, and relative hope.
Are you hopeless? Are you pessimistic? Come to Jesus; He will give you hope, true hope, genuine hope, authentic hope, absolute hope.
Paul wrote:
1 Corinthians 13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
In 1 Corinthians Paul had defined God's Divine Love; the nature of God's infinite Love, the substance of God's unfailing Love.
By faith in Jesus Christ, you can come to Him, you can come to God your Creator, wherever you are, such as you are, in your sinful situation and condition, hopeless, unhappy, pessimistic, and immoral, such as you are . If you come by faith to Jesus, the Redeemer and the Saviour of the world, He will forgive you and deliver you of your sins, from you sinful condition, and He will give you His Divine Love, absolute peace, true and genuine hope, and eternal life.
Philosophers can't do that. Philosophers, men, can't forgive you and deliver you, and change your life radically.
Only Jesus can do that.
Only the Son of God can forgive you and deliver you from you sinful condition and situation.
Only Jesus, Immanuel, can and is able to change you; to transform you, to revolutionize you, to give you a new life, to give you true and genuine hope, and to give you eternal life.
John 8:36: So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
If the Son of God, if Jesus sets you free; if Jesus changes you, transforms you, and revolutionizes your whole being, you will be free; you will be radically changed, you will be entirely revolutionized, you will be indeed free and a new creation .
Can you imagine, do you realize, being a brand new man, an new creation, an human being radically changed? It's possible with God.......... With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:26.
With the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob all things are possible; in heaven, in the whole universe, on earth, all around the world.
With El Olam (Eternal God) all things are possible.
With El Shaddai (God Almighty) all things are possible.
Jesus died on the cross for you and I; for all people, that we may be free, delivered, forgiven, saved from hell, and that we may have eternal life.
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation ...
How wonderful and marvelous it is to be an new creation in Christ. It is possible only by God's great and infinite Grace.
Would you like to become an brand new person, human being, in Christ? Do you want to become an child of God? If you accept Jesus Christ in your life, you will be no longer the same, you will be no longer hopeless, helpless, alone, sad, unhappy, negative, pessimist, immoral, and perverse.
Philosophers are Looking for More Philosophy
1 Corinthians 1:22 Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified:
Philosophers in our society, scientists in our world, are looking for more culture, sophisticate and speculative philosophies, information, more details in their researches, science and wisdom.
Religious persons, pious individuals, bigot people in our postmodern contemporary society, want more religious culture, dogmatic systems, traditions, superstitions, history of religions, ecumenism, and so on.
It is very interesting to see that there were, and there are, religious Jews, orthodox rabbis, pious people, the clergies, were studied , and are studying the Holy Scripture, the traditions, the Torah, the Talmud, the religious culture, theology, and they are expecting signs, miracles, divine manifestations, but they, in their religiosity and pious states, don't truly believe and do God's will: they don't want God in their lives; they don't want to accept Jesus as their personal Lord, Master, Leader, and Saviour into their lives.
Greeks philosophers sought for wisdom, political philosophy, natural sciences, human sciences, social systems, the meaning in life, to understand the complexity of life, to explain the nature, to elucidate the laws of the nature, to penetrate the metaphysical sphere and reality.
Socrates , Plato , Aristotle were very intelligent, educated, cultivated, and, why not, wiser individuals. They were studied the nature, the laws of the nature, the society, life, human condition, the first cause, the human faculties, the human behaviors, the metaphysical realm, the logic, the human reason, the natural phenomenon, etc.
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the One true God, the Author and the Creator of the universe, had created men, the human beings, with capacities, faculties and reason to be able to live, to be capable to learn and communicate, and to be competent.
Philosophers were seeking for wisdom, but they sought it in a wrong direction. Philosophers were seeking wisdom in their own limited, finite and subjective philosophies, in this so passing world, in this ephemeral material reality, not to God, the Creator and the Maker of the heaven and earth.
True wisdom comes from God.
Genuine wisdom has its origin in heaven.
Authentic wisdom lives into the lives where God dwells.
1 Corinthians 1:20-21 Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know Him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
Where are the wise men of our contemporary society- of our post modern age? where? Can you tell me where are they living and have they their materiel, worldly dwelling? Are they alive and real in our ephemeral materiality? Do you know personally one, just one? Are they humans or super humans? Are they moral or immoral? Are they intelligent or unintelligent? Do they have vast culture or not? Are they in the schools, teaching wisely and justly? Are they the leaders of the nations? Are they the genius of the world? Are they the world greatest philosophers? Are they the superior spirits? Are they real or fake? Are they the nobles ones? Are they compassionate and generous? Do they serve the noble causes? Are they in the presidential institution? Are they in the Congress or in the Senate? Are they at the TV shows? Are they famous individuals?
Are they virtues and men of superior quality? Are they vertical and men of integrity? Are they a part of our material reality? Are they the abstract ideas or real entities among us? Are they the philosophical conceptions and notions, invented and elaborated by the philosophers? Are they the poetical metaphors?
I tell you something: there is no wise man, no wise woman, no wise scholar, no wise philosopher, no wise congressman, no wise president, no wise writer, no wise bestseller in our post modern society, in our material world, without God, without the Author and the Creator of the universe.
God is the source of the genuine and absolute wisdom. If you have God in your life, God can make you a wise man, a wise human being.
Where are the scholars of our age? Where are the scholars of our contemporary society? Where are the scholars of our postmodern society? Where are the scholars of our epoch? Where are the scholars of our world?
Are the scholars that we know the true, the genuine scholars?
Into the human history, there were a lot of scholars: Galileo Galilei, Copernicus, Pascal, Einstein, etc. They were scholars because the Creator, God, gave them the faculties, the abilities, the aptitudes, the intellects( nous), the competences to be so. Their genialness came from another world, their intelligence coefficient came from metaphysical sphere, their skills came from our Creator and Maker, God.
God is the Creator and the Maker of the universe, of the heaven and earth, of the material reality and the immaterial reality. God is the source of life. God is the source of men's capacities, faculties, intellects, skills and genialness. Men, scholars and philosophers have forgot this reality, this truth, that God is the Creator of the universe, the source of their capacities, faculties and genialness.
Where is the philosopher of our age?
Where are the philosophers of our postmodern society?
Where are the philosophers of our world?
What are the philosophers of our postmodern society doing?
Are the philosophers of our world the servants of the noble causes?
Are the philosophers of our age telling the realities, the objective and true things, the substance and the quintessence of the phenomenon, the truth, the Absolute Truth.
Are the philosophers of our world really what they claim to be?
Are the philosophers of our material reality the superior human beings?
What does it mean to be philosopher?
Who are the philosophers of our ephemeral physical dimension?
There are philosophers all over the world; in every country, in each nation, in every ethnical group. There are a lot of philosophers in our world, in our postmodern society, but few of them are Christians; few of them believe in God, few of them are the children of God, few of them have Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour, Lord, Master and Redeemer.
The French philosopher, Michel Onfray, author of numerous books: He is an hedonist atheist; his philosophical thinking is influenced by the philosophers like Nietzsche and Epicure. Michel Onfray is spreading out, through his books and speech, the materialism, material pleasers, immorality, atheism, Eros, infidelity, and the sentiment, the feeling, anti Judeo-Christian values and morality. His system of thought, his philosophy, his books are systematically and willingly made and elaborated to offend Christians, and they are also made and elaborated against God, against the Bible, against the Judeo-Christian morality, and against the Christian system of values.
There are a lot of atheists, agnostics and hedonists people which like and embrace Michel Onfray's philosophy, and system of thinking.
Atheists, agnostics and hedonists people that don't believe in God and don't want Jesus as personal Saviour in their lives, that love the material pleasers; love erotic satisfactions, love the sin.
Philosophers love more the material things, material comfort, material wealth, human glory, fame, the material pleasers from this material and ephemeral world, than the truth- than the Absolute Truth, than heavenly things, than immaterial wealth, than the Spiritual Food, than God.
Atheist and hedonist philosophers are living only for this material world, only for this ephemeral material reality, only for this biological form of life, only for material pleasers, only for this material existential sphere. They are so materialistic and hedonistic.
My dear reader, don't listen to the atheist and hedonist philosophers; their philosophies, their system of thoughts, will lead you to sadness, stressful life, nonsense, pessimism, anxiety, restlessness, and to hell.
Repent! Repent! Turn to God, turn to Jesus Christ, who died for you on the cross, that you may be saved.
Acts 2:38 Peter replied, Repent and be baptized , every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of you sins.
Umberto Eco is an Italian philosopher, essayist, semiotician, and novelist. His most known books, novels are: The Name of the Rose and the Prague Cemetery. The Name of the Rose is an historical mystery novel which deals with literary theory, biblical analysis, some forms of intellectual mystery, semiotics in fiction, and medieval studies.
Umberto Eco had said:
"When men stop believing in God, it isn't that they then believe in nothing: they believe in everything."
Everything what?
When men stop believing in God, they open the door to sins ,irrational atheism, material pleasers, egocentrism, self praise and glorification of man, anomalies, immorality, human degradation, life without real purpose, non- sense, disharmony in society, individualistic and selfish mentalities, hedonism, and self destruction.
When men stop believing in God, they start to believe that they are gods- omnipotent and omniscient; it's a huge lie from Satan; it's a pure utopia. In reality ,they are ephemeral and mortal men.
When men stop believing in God, some of them become to believe in pantheism, esoteric forces, paganism, and eclectic currents.
Umberto Eco is a very educated man, and very cultivated.
Umberto Eco has an great and vast knowledge and culture, but he doesn't know personally God, who is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, the Creator of the Universe.
Umberto Eco knows the story of Jesus, the middle age events, the European history, but he does not knows and have Jesus Christ as personal Lord, Master, and Saviour in his life.
Jesus said:
Matthew 16:26 What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul.
What good will it be for a man, for a philosopher , to have and to posses great knowledge, a lot of information, vast culture, and to live an life without God, and to die without Christ, and to go to hell.
Having and possessing vast culture, a lot of information, knowledge, doesn't mean that philosophers or scientists are right and have and possess the true in whatever they create, invent, and elaborate.
The words, the writing, the ideas, the philosophies of the philosophers, are so passing; are so ephemeral, are temporary and relative.
In their arrogance and infatuation, atheists philosophers, claim to be superior human beings; and they also claim to possess the truth. In reality, they are so passing, ephemeral, limited and mortal human beings, and they are possessing their own subjective, relative and utopic concept of the truth, not the Absolute Truth.
Philosophers have their own subjective vision and version of things, of the world.
There are things, realities, realms, spheres, dimensions that are very superior to men, to philosophers; such as God's existence, heaven; the fact that God is eternal, immortal, and infinite.
God is so Great!
God is infinite!
God is beyond the ideas, beyond the concepts, beyond the notions, beyond the definitions, beyond the explanations of the philosophers.
An limited and finite philosopher can not understand and define An infinite God and His Divine nature and attributes.
How do you want a mortal philosopher to explains An immortal God?
God is what He is!
God is the Creator of the heavens and the earth.
God is the Maker of the whole universe.
God is the Author of the material and immaterial world.
God is the Cause of everything that exist in the immaterial sphere, heaven, and material dimension, the universe.
God is the First Cause, the material reality is the effect.
God is so Big, we, men, philosophers are too small.
God is the One True God, and the philosophers must better accept Him.
God is the Alpha and the Omega.
God said:
Isaiah 46:9 I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me.
God is the One True God.
God has different names in the Bible.
"YHWH" means "I AM," "The One Who Is" or "The Self-Existent One".
"Adonai" means "The Lord" or "My Great Lord";
"El Roi" means "The God Who Sees Me", etc.
God is infinite superior to the philosophies of the philosophers.
It is God who made and created the entire universe; the heavens and the earth, the galaxies and all stars, the material and immaterial realities.
God is infinite in His Divine Power, wisdom, knowledge, and love.
The fame and the glory of the philosophers is so passing away, and so ephemeral.
The Majesty, the Supremacy, the Superiority, and the Glory of God are eternal.
The philosophies, the ideas, the conceptions, the notions, the speculations of the atheist philosophers are ephemeral, limited, relative, subjective and utopic.
We, as limited and mortal human beings, are not able to understand, to quantify, to calculate, to define, to explain, to narrate God's infinite and eternal attributes.
Romans 11:33 Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!
God is sovereign!
God is the Master of the universe.
God governs the whole creation.
God is the God of the victory.
God is A faithful God.
God is Great, merciful, peaceful, loving, generous, forgiving, clement, immortal, eternal, and infinite.
God reigns forever and ever more.
No matter what the philosophers think or say about God, God remains God; God is still on His eternal Throne; God is and will always be the same: omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, immortal, eternal, and infinite.
Do you know this True and Real God? Do you know personally Jesus, the Son of the immortal, eternal and infinite God?
O, God, you are the eternal God!
O, God, you are A Loving God, and your Divine Love is Amazing.
O, Heavenly Father, we are imperfect and mortal men, but you are Perfect and Just.
O, Forgiving God, forgive us, forgive the ignorant philosophers, and reveal yourself to them, and call them to you.
God's Grace is infinite.
It is only by God's Divine Grace that we can come to Him. It is only through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ that we are saved, and the atheist philosophers may be saved.
Have you ever heard of the God of the Bible? Have you ever heard of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob? God is your Creator and mine- the Creator of the universe.
God is not an idea, an concept, as some philosophers has stated; and some others are still thinking that.
God is real! God's reality is immaterial, immortal, unchangeable, and eternal. God's existence is true! God lives in Heaven, in an Holy Place. God is a Holy God. There is no god in heaven, on earth, in the whole universe, like the God of the Bible. The Bible is the Word of the Living and Eternal God.
Life without God is an inert and an dead life. Life without the source of life, which is God, is an nonsense; is an nonlife.
Philosophy without God is an chaotic system of thinking , anarchical speculation, utopic concepts, nonsense notions, unintelligible definitions, irrational abstract conceptions, hedonism without satisfactions and control, unrestful states, mentalities egocentric, and so on.
If you are an philosopher and want to have an pure and positive rationality, than you need God. The philosophy, the knowledge, the righteousness, the rationality that come from God, from our Creator, are good for our lives; are positive and useful for our souls.
Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.
Philosophers are the sinners, and they have to repent and ask God forgiveness.
Only God, by His Amazing Grace, can reveal Himself to the philosophers community, and change, revolutionize their lives.
Time changes, weather is instable, life goes on, good and bad circumstances are temporary, people born and people die, the laws of the nature are affected by human intense activities and they change, the human mentalities are evaluating, the social behaviors change, the political systems and regimes are not eternal, the philosophers are ephemeral, the systems of thoughts are passing away, but only Jesus does not change. God doesn't change. God remain the same.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
It is in God's Divine nature to be unchangeable, to be eternally the same.
God's reality never changes. God is not changeable, passing away, ephemeral, and temporal. God is unchangeable, non-ephemeral, non-temporal, and eternal.
God Lives Forever, Eternally
God is above His creation-above all things that exist. God is superior and above all things that exist because He's the Creator of all things that are; because He is the First Cause of the so vast and so complex creation; because He's the Author of the entire universe; because He is the source of the all form of life: human life, biological life, vegetal life, and animal life.
Let's praise God for his infinite goodness and mercy.
Let the whole universe sing glory to God for His Greatness.
Let all nations of the world worship the Holy Heavenly Loving Father.
Let all human beings bow down their heads and proclaim that Jesus Christ is the Lord.
Let the rivers of the earth join together and magnify the All- powerful God.
Let the entire creation lift up the voice of its splendid beauty and sing the songs of recognition, thanks, gratefulness, and gratitude to its Creator.
Let all the nations of the world praise and adore the God Almighty.
Let all the tribes, and all the ethnic group of the earth extol and venerate the Omnipotent God.
Let the oceans of the planet earth glorify and magnify the Eternal God.
Let the whole earth tremble, because God reigns.
Let the birds of the sky sing Hallelujah to the Lamb of God.
Let God's children worship the Creator of heaven and earth.
Let the church of Jesus Christ rejoice in the presence of the God the Father.
Let the redeemed worship the Redeemer.
Let the saved ones glorify the Saviour.
Oh, God- infinite God; You are the Eternal God. Your Divine Super Power has no limits and end!
Oh, God- Merciful God. Your Amazing Grace is so Great, so vast, and infinite!
Oh, God- Immortal God. Your Glory and Holiness last forever and ever more!
Oh, God-Loving God. Your unfailing Love is so marvelous, so wonderful, so sublime, so fabulous, so perfect, and absolute!
Oh, God-Heavenly Father, no one is like you in heaven, on earth, and in the entire universe!
Oh, God-All Powerful God, Omnipotent God; you are the God of my salvation!
Oh, God, All Knowing God, Omniscient God; your knowledge is absolute and infinite!
Oh, God, Omnipresent God; you are so Big, so Great, so Vast!
Holy! Holy! Holy is the God Almighty.
Philosophers of our age are not perfect and holy. God is perfect and holy.
Our contemporary society's philosophies are utopias dressed in truths, imperfection presented as perfection, immorality dyed in morality, non-values painted in values, theories elaborated as absolute true.
God is Holy and Perfect!
God is dressed in holiness and perfection. God's glory is spread into His creation. God's absolute truth stands forever, because it is divine and eternal.
God is eternal. Men, philosophers, are so ephemeral and mortal. God's substance and nature are Divine, immaterial, immortal, unchangeable, and eternal.
Oh, immortal, eternal, and infinite God; Your goodness is so great; your love has no limit, no end, and no finality.
Oh God unique and true; no one is like you: no one in heaven, on earth, under the earth, in the whole universe. You are the God who perform great miracles, awesome wonders, supernatural events, unspeakable and ineffable things, super-extraordinary deeds.
Oh God, you are God, we are humans! You are the God who has created the heaven and the earth, we are your property, we are your creatures.
Oh God, you govern the universe! Oh God, the whole universe is yours; the humans beings belong to you. Oh God, you live in a holy place, yet we, sinful men, live in a corrupted and compromised sphere-world, have mercy on us, Lord.
Our world is God's world. Our lives are God's, and they belong to Him. The material and immaterial world, spheres, are and belong to God.
God is the Creator, the Maker, the First Cause, the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and the Omega, the Source of life, the Supporter of the all existence, the Author of the entire creation.
God, our God, my God!
God of eternal and everlasting pure an Absolute Love, Your Love, your Love, O God, is the true and the genuine Love. Your Divine and Unfailing Love, O God, is amazing; marvelous; wonderful; sublime; phenomenal; and ineffable!
Love, True Love, comes from you, O Heavenly Loving Father!
O Love, Absolute Love, your origin is in heaven.
God's Divine and Infinite Love is eternal.
O eternal and immortal Love of God, your nature is Divine.
It is too hard for the atheists philosophers to understand and to define God's Divine, Eternal, Immortal, and Infinite Love.
1 John 4:8 ... God is Love.
Yes! God is Love: Perfect Love, Absolute Love, Immortal Love, Eternal Love, Infinite Love.
Philosophers, with their limited reason, capacities and faculties, are philosophizing and speculating on this great subject, on this supernatural phenomenon, on this Absolute Truth, and on this Divine reality.
Man needs God to understand this Absolute Truth. Philosophers need God's Grace and mercy to be able to start to penetrate the mystery of God's Divine Love.
Love! Love! Love! Oh Divine Love!
God's Divine Love demolishes and destroys the walls of hatred and hostility.
God's Eternal Love has no equal, no equivalent, no opponent, no adversary.
God's Infinite Love can not be weighed, quantified, and measured by men's abilities, capacities and faculties.
No one on earth, in the whole universe, is able to fight, and the stand against God's Immortal Love.
God' s Amazing Love is always victorious.
God's Unfailing Love, Agape Love, is infinitely superior to Eros love.
Oh God, let your Divine Love invades the opponent hearts of the philosophers; and let it change, and transform radically their lives.
Oh God, let the river of your Absolute Love flows into the human beings souls and minds, that they may be able to love you and their neighbors.
Oh Heavenly Loving Father, let the rain of your Supernatural Love rains over us, over all people, over all nations; and let it washes all our hatred feelings, and hostile sentiments.
Oh Loving God, let us test and drink from the abundance and endless ocean of your Sublime Love, that we may be able to really love you and each other.
Oh Lord of Love and Victory, your Love, your Love, oh God, is the True Love- the Genuine Love- the Absolute Love.
Life is Like a Tree
God is the Creator of the heaven and the earth, of the whole universe.
God is the Author and the Source of human life.
Man's life is like an tree. The Maker and the Creator of the tree is God. To be able to live, the tree needs fertile ground, an water source, oxygen, etc. The tree is in a total dependence of these indispensable, vital, and very necessary elements. Without these elements, the tree can't live and exist.
Let's read:
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf dose not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
It is an Divine blessing to be a tree planted by stream of water and to be protected by God, the Maker and the Creator of the tree and the stream of water. An child of God, a true and genuine Christian, is like a tree planted by God's stream of heavenly water.
It is so great and amazing to be that wonderful tree; created by God, planted by the Lord by stream of God's favour, and drink the abundant and living water.
The Source of the stream of water is God. The crystal-clear stream of the living water has no end, no finality, because its source is in the Eternal and the Infinite God.
Life with God is the true and the genuine life.
Tree with its Maker and Creator is a blessed tree.
Are you a tree planted in the fertile and good soil and ground of the Word of God? Or maybe you are an tree planted in the soil and ground of the philosophies of the philosophers of our age.
Are you a tree that bears the fruits of righteousness and godliness? Or maybe you are a tree that bears the fruits of selfishness, perversion, immorality and violence.
The tree that is planted into the word of God, and by the heavenly divine living water, is a living tree; it's a tree that is dwelled by God.
Are you a living tree or and dead tree?
A tree, an vegetal organism, can't live without an adequate environment, propitious ecosystem, and balanced natural laws.
As a tree, as an vegetal organism can't live without these vital , crucial, indispensable, and necessary elements, so is with a man, an human being; he can't really live without the Creator (the Source of life), without God, the Maker of man.
Life is like a tree! Into the forests, there are living trees and dead trees. The living trees are standing up, and they keep on living till their mission and purpose is over. The dead trees are without life, and out of service; they are used to satisfy human needs, and in the wood industry.
A living tree, indwelled by God, can face tomorrow; can stand when the storms of troubles strike; when the cataclysmic tragedies come, it stands up, because it is rooted in the good and fertile soil, ground of the Word of God.
The living tree planted into the fertile ground of the Word of God, bears the fruits of genuine love; it bears the fruits of mercy and compassion; it bears the fruits of divine peace; it bears the fruits of kindness.
The living tree has the true and the abundant life, because it is planted by the crystal-clear river, with the heavenly living and pure water.
To God be the Glory for His amazing and infinite Grace.
There are trees, living trees, planted in the marvelous garden of God's Unfailing Love.
Oh Jesus, without you life is lifeless, human being is hopeless, living is nonsense, man is unhappy, questions have no answers, life is stressful, man's fate is painful, life is restless, man lives unsatisfied, and there is no after death, post-mortem hope.
True Peace
Oh Jesus, you are the Prince of Peace.
Oh Jesus, you are the source of the true and the genuine peace.
Wherever Jesus is present and lives, there is divine peace, there is an infinite ocean of eternal peace.
Do you have in your soul the peace of God? Do you possess in your life the divine peace that surpasses all the philosophies of the philosophers?
Psalm 29:11 The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.
Peace, divine peace, genuine peace, eternal peace, true peace, heavenly peace comes from the Prince of Peace.
You can't find peace, true and genuine peace in the philosophies of the philosophers, into the lifestyle without God, into the abstract concepts.
God blesses his people with divine peace.
Genuine peace lives and reigns into the life where the Prince of Peace, Jesus, lives and reigns. Jesus' peace is like a balm which heals the soul of its pain, stress, unhappiness, and sadness.
Peace, true peace, genuine peace, has its roots and its origin in God, the Creator of the universe.
People are longing and searching for peace, for the inner comfort.
God's peace dwells into the lives of his children.
The peace of God overcomes conflicts and human wars.
Divine peace is always victorious and it can not be destroyed by men's violence.
The peace of the Lord brings comfort and healing for the worried soul.
Heavenly peace surpasses all the capacities and the faculties of the philosophers.
True and genuine peace is an amazing gift from God to mankind.
The roots of the absolute peace is in the Creator of heaven and earth.
The movement of the eternal peace generates tranquility and sublime atmosphere.
No! No! There is no peace, true and genuine peace, into the hearts of the atheist philosophers.
God is the Maker of the abundant, the tenacious and the immortal peace.
God is the source of the ineffable peace.
The wave of Jesus' peace proclaims deliverance and liberation for the human being that lies into the prison of the war.
Oh peace, divine peace, people don't know you and where do you live.
People have not heard of God's great peace. God, and not the ephemeral philosophers, is the Creator and the Source of the true peace.
A genuine Christian has peace in his soul, because he is lived by the Son of the Living God.
Oh divine peace, your mission is to dwell into the hearts where Jesus is Lord and Master.
A man of God is peaceful even into the extreme situations; bad circumstances, violent individuals, because God is in control of his life.
God's eternal peace quenches the burning fire of the stressful life.
There is a stream of heavenly peace that flows out the Heavenly Loving Father.
Peace? Peace is one only: and it is the peace of Jesus Christ. Without Jesus, there is no inside and inner true and genuine peace. Jesus said:
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. John 14:27
Peace in a world where there is no peace.
It is possible with God to have peace in a climax of conflicts and wars.
With God it is possible into the storm is wars to possess God's Amazing Peace.
God's Divine Peace is unique and it has no equality.
Every human being want and desire peace and tranquility within their lives.
Peace, true and genuine peace, is only one, and it is that of Jesus Christ. If you have Jesus as personal Saviour in your life, you have and possess an great wealth of heavenly peace.
Peace, genuine and true peace, has its origin in God, and it is an gift from Him. So, if you know God and God lives in you, you have his divine peace.
Peace, divine peace, blessed peace, lives in the hearts of the children of God.
The philosophers of the postmodern society can't give and provide you peace, true and genuine peace.
Only Jesus, the Son of the living God, who died for you and I- for all people, can give you His divine and infinite peace. Only Jesus can change, transform and revolutionize radically your heart, your life. Only Jesus, the Saviour of the world, can help and save you from hell.
There is no peace into the life where Jesus is absent. Wherever Jesus is and lives, there is and dwell peace, true and genuine peace.
Only God, the Maker and the Author of infinite peace, can give and provide abundant and eternal peace.
People without God, without the Creator of heavens and earth, have no peace, authentic peace in their souls.
The peace of Jesus Christ is like the fresh water for the thirsty.
Are you worried? come to Jesus Christ and he will give you his Divine Peace.
Are you stressed? come to the Son of God and he will give you as heavenly gift his Supernatural Peace.
Your soul needs God's unique and marvelous peace to really work and live.
The peace of the Lord brings harmony and inner comfort.
Having an peace like a quiet sea is an blessing from God. It is by God's infinite Grace that his children have true peace into their hearts.
God is the source of the true and the genuine peace. Philosophers aren't the creators and the generators of peace.
Philosophers are the creators and the makers of the abstracts concepts, utopias, irrational speculations, chaos in their system of thoughts, and anarchical hermeneutics.
God is the Author of the true and the genuine peace. Philosophers are the authors of the confusions, irrationality, nonsense, and utopias.
God is the Maker and the Creator of the universe. All things that exist was created by God. God lives in a high and holy place.
God governs the whole universe. God is the One true God. There is no god like the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God is a merciful and a loving God. God is eternal and infinite. The Greatness of God can't be measured and quantified by the limited human beings capacities and faculties.
The reality is that God is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent. Men, human beings, philosophers, scholars, are limited, finites, ephemerals, and mortals.
Come to God! Come to your Creator and Maker! Come today to your Redeemer and Saviour, Jesus Christ; who died for you on the cross.
