Dire significances

Nowadays, more and more people seem to feel comfortable living in their own delusion. What I mean is that, people seems to grow tired of finding what is true. As I see people around me, including many friends and families, it seems like they prefer to believe whatever is convenient for them rather than to believe what is true.

Many atheists believe that there is no God simply because being atheists, it is more convenient IF there is no God. Many Christians believes that Christianity is true because they felt like it is. Many other people of different religions (Islam, Jew, Buddhism, etc) also keep their own “faith” simply because changing belief systems may put them into a lot of trouble and seems to be too much effort. The fear of knowing what could possibly very inconvenient often stops people from exploring. Many people prefer to turn a blind eye for this sort of things.

People of this generation “as if” being offered with this many options, some opt out to be a free thinker. These people put themselves as the judge of the highest authority when searching for truth. And so often they create their “new hybrid –man-made believe system” – again according to whatsoever is convenient.

Ok, So I have to be honest with my background. I am a Christian. I’ve learn a little bit about other religions and philosophies. I was not always convinced about the Holy Bible but as I read books, read the history, speak with people, I am now convinced that Christianity is true.  To be honest, I’m very disappointed with how so many people take the issue about a “worldview” very lightly. Seems like many people, regardless of what they confess to believe in, does not understand the dire significances of not knowing the truth.

Not knowing the truth makes people delusional. Through the blog, I’d like to share my bit of current wisdom. I really look forward to know more about other believes. I look forward to be challenged, and questioned. Through this, I hope to understand more about things that I have not yet known. I had this journey once and it convinced me of Christianity. And hopefully between: “I am a Christian and so Christianity must be true” or “Christianity is true and thus I believe” this journey will reassure me of the former one…

A year has passed since my initial posting. Thank God, for the journey which allows me to be more convinced of His great love for me.
