Truth vs Philosophy = Part 6
(Southern Etiquette or life in Dixie)
** Where is the truth? Human Philosophy represents the oft-repeated attempt to comprehend infinity, and to explain the mystery of God! **

The inadequacy of Human Philosophy:
Paul wrote eloquently on this subject in -
1 Corinthians 1:18 - 2:5 Where he said that the mysteries of God can not be understood through the human mind alone!
The official definition of philosophy is:
" The study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality and existence!"
Yet human philosophy is speculation and nothing more; it has never been found adequate to satisfy the aspirations of the human soul!
The thesis of Modernism is that all religion is the revelation; that man's enlarging ideas of deity arose out of a consciousness of his own needs and were therefore,
the concepts of his own mind.
In other words God did not created mankind in His own image, rather man created God in his imagination..
-------------------------------------------------
However experience has shown that when people are left to their own devices and resources; they will go backward spiritually rather than progress!
Romans 1:21-25
The only true incentive to moral and spiritual progress is not a power from within mankind; but is a prevailing power from without!
Because God's nature, attributes and works are not matters to be apprehended by any intuitive process, but matters that can only be made know to us by revelation from God Himself!
Deuteronomy 29:29; Job 11:7.
Without this revelation, our human race would not have advanced morally and spiritually from where it was several thousand years ago.
While the modern world view which is being presented in the Mass media - Internet is flawed by the mankind's progressive {self centered} thinking! Yet, each day all over the world unbeknow to most people - there are litterly millions of Holy Happenings and Blessings occuring!
If you belive it or not! Pray and seek God in your life!
