I Didn’t Confer With Flesh and Blood

Cutaway of planet Earth showing the crust, mantle, great gulf and hell.

But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and remained with him fifteen days.
(Galatians 1:15-18) NKJV

After Paul’s conversion on the Damascus road he spent three years in Damascus and Arabia being taught, by the Holy Spirit, the doctrine which he would preach, teach and eventually write.

You Need Faith not Sight

Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
(John 20:29) KJV

Having proof of God would serve no purpose and, in fact, it would be counter-productive. If you want to choose God and escape the destruction that’s coming, then this is what you need to know: faith is needed, not sight.

This Present Evil Age

Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
(Galatians 1:3-5) NKJV

What’s the meaning of life? What’s the point of it all?

One Life to Live

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
(2 Peter 3:9) KJV

God created the Earth’s environment and our physical bodies as a way of giving each soul an opportunity to come to know the truth about God and choose for themselves whether or not they want to have fellowship with him in eternity.
