Target of the First Atomic Bomb

Hiroshima, as the target of the first atomic bomb, received sixty seconds of radiation from less than a gram of matter, producing the horrific effects known today. Yet, Hiroshima is now a thriving metropolis, unlike Chernobyl. Jesus prophesied, “Except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened” (Matthew 24:22 KJV).

Belief in Creation in 17th Century Thought

Belief in creation in 17th century thought fueled the rise of modern science. Christianity’s belief in an omnipotent, precise, and predictable Creator compelled Galileo, Newton, and Boyle. Instead of questioning if Christianity really motivated the rise of modern science, a better question would be, why just then did the Almighty allow it? “But God is the judge: He putteth down one, and setteth up another” (Psalm 75:7 KJV).

Is the Book of Nature Written by God in the Language of Mathematics?

Is the book of nature written by God in the language of mathematics, or was Galileo only attempting a clever metaphor to prevent papal censure? Ask Galileo. But, more important, did the Almighty smile when Galileo coined those words? “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth His handywork” (Psalm 19:1 KJV).

Was the Creation of Heaven and Earth a Miracle of God?

Was the Creation of Heaven and Earth a miracle of God? If a miracle defies Natural Law for explanation, then does Creation taking place in Six Literal Days defy the scientific explanation of evolution over a far greater epoch of time? If we accept the plain statement of Scripture in Genesis, then God created in Six Literal Days and rested on the Seventh. “For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it” (Exodus 20:11).

Christian Supernaturalism Relies on Christ to Make Us Free and Stay Free

Christian Supernaturalism relies upon Christ to make us free and stay free. We become increasingly freed from all that holds and controls us in our present existence, as well as, Christ controlling our actions towards others in liberating them. “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage” (Galatians 5:1 KJV).

Christian Supernaturalism Appreciates Our Supernatural Liberation in Christ

Christian Supernaturalism appreciates our supernatural liberation in Christ, while building the Kingdom of God in the material world. “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound” (Isaiah 61:1 KJV). Jesus  began His ministry reading this Scripture in the synagogue at Nazareth, sat down, and said, “This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears” (Luke 4:21 KJV).

Christianity Isn’t the Only Supernatural Religion in the World

Christian Supernaturalism is, of course, Christianity, but it’s with the understanding, Christianity isn’t the only supernatural religion in the world. “For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by Him” (1Corinthians 8:5-6 KJV).

Dechurched Christianity, Victim of Perfect Storm

Dechurched Christianity is a victim of a perfect storm. Meaninglessness of life, religious abuse and moral corruption, workism trumping religious community, gradual loss of the willingness to believe, emotional engagement being found just as easily somewhere else. Dechurched Christianity practically demonstrates the Organized Church no longer represents Christ. “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me” (Revelation 3:20 KJV).
