GOD, TRUTH and SCIENCE
Module 1 is foundational for all lessons that follow. If you’re not on board with this material, then, Christianity is in jeopardy. Obviously, if God doesn’t exist, then all religions, including Christianity, are a complete waste of time and could even be detrimental to our lives.
Think about the significance of these matters: God, Truth & Science.
Shouldn’t a person seriously consider the evidence for God’s existence? Shouldn’t a person investigate whether or not truth exists? What about science? Haven’t scientific advances over the centuries explained much of what earlier societies attributed to the realm of God? If so, won’t the need for "a God” diminish over time?
The Module has three distinct portions: God, Truth & Science.
