Обърква ли те науката понякога?

Обърква ли те науката понякога?

Били ли сте някога объркани от „научни открития“, за които се съобщава, че по някакъв начин опровергават Библията?

Например, твърдението,че науката е открила генетични предразположения към алкохолизма.

Когато тази генетична слабост беше открита за първи път, някои твърдяха, че Библията трябва да бъде захвърлена, че науката е открила истинските корени на човешките неволи – нашите гени, и че скоро науката ще открие лечението. Но още преди хилядолетия Библията разкри, че човечеството е генетично увредено. Науката едва сега наваксва.

В Псалм 51 Давид заявява, че е бил „роден в грях и заченат в беззаконие.” Той е роден биологично дефектен. Първото Послание на Йоан ни казва, че нашите биологични предразположения включват гордост, чувствени и физически страсти, и алчност. Бог разкри закона на генетиката точно в сърцето на 10-те заповеди, когато Той, Който ни е създал, Който ни е проектирал такива каквито сме, казва, че беззаконието ще бъде предавано до третото и четвъртото поколение. Да, всички ние имаме биологични слабости. Всички ние имаме генетична уязвимост. Всички ние сме наследили склонност към злото – това не е голям научен пробив, а науката просто потвърждава това, което Библията е казвала през цялото време.

И все пак, научната общност би искала да вярваме, че чрез науката, без нашия Създател, можем да намерим “научни” решения, за да излекуваме коренните проблеми на човечеството. Така те отхвърлят Библията и Божието решение, разкрито в нея. Но защо интелигентни хора искат да отхвърлят религията на Библията?

През 2005 г. Грег Пол, независим изследовател от Балтимор, Мериленд, публикува проучване, в което се опитва да определи количествено отрицателните ефекти на религията (Journal of Religion and Society, том 7, стр. 1). Той сравнява нивата на религиозност с различни показатели за социална дисфункция в 18 развити страни. Заключава, че страни с по-високи нива на вяра и поклонение, имат по-високи нива на убийства, смърт сред деца и младежи, болести, предавани по полов път, бременност в юношеска възраст и аборти. Грег Пол вярва, че моралът не произтича от религията и че религията произтича от несигурността в обществото. “Масовата вяра в боговете е преди всичко страх и реакция, основаваща се на безпокойство при недостатъчно сигурни финансови обстоятелства, и няма дълбока невробиологична, генетична или друга основа”, казва той (цитиран от What Good is God New Scientist, 1 септември 2007 г.).

Това, което заключава Грег Пол, също не е новост. Библията ни е учила през цялото време, че „формалното религиозно поклонение” на човечеството няма силата да трансформира сърцето, да излекува ума или да промени характера. Никой няма да бъде трансформиран, пресъздаден или да стане “морален” чрез спазване на религиозни ритуали, обреди или церемонии (Римляни 3:20). Всъщност Библията предрече и описа ситуацията, в която живеем днес, дори по-добре от резултатите на цитираното изследване:

“А това да знаеш, че в последните дни ще настанат усилни времена. Защото човеците ще бъдат себелюбиви, сребролюбиви, надменни, горделиви, хулители, непокорни на родителите, неблагодарни, нечестиви, без семейна обич, непримирими, клеветници, невъздържни, свирепи, неприятели на доброто, предатели, буйни, надути, повече сластолюбиви, а не боголюбиви, имащи вид на благочестие, но отречени от силата му; тоже от такива страни.” 2 Тимотей 3:1-5

Тези религиозни хора имат вид на благочестие, но отричат променящата живота, изцеляващата сърцето, преобразяващата характера сила – и каква е тази сила? Апостол Павел казва, че Евангелието е “Божията сила за спасението (изцелението) на всеки, който вярва” (Римляни 6:23).

Какво е Евангелието? Добра новина, но каква добра новина? Добрата новина за самия Бог – че Бог е точно Такъв, какъвто Исус Го разкри, че е; че Бог е любов и по-скоро би умрял, отколкото да използва силата Си, за да ни навреди! Именно тази истина е толкова извратена, толкова изкривена, толкова погрешно представена от религиите по света, че мнозина възприемат Бог като строг диктатор, който се радва да измъчва децата Си. А религия, която е изпълнена с лъжи за Бога, не само не може да лекува, но действително вреди на ума, изкривява характера и унищожава душата. Когато се вярват лъжи за Бога, Библията казва, че умът се помрачава, става глупав и покварен. Не можем да бъдем изцелени, докато вярваме в лъжи за Бога.

Бог е любов. Бог е точно Такъв, какъвто Исус го разкри – Бог, Който не се нуждае от умилостивение, за да ни обича, Бог, Който не се нуждае Неговия Син да Го умолява, за да ни прощава. Той е Бог, Който ни обича толкова много, че даде всичко, което имаше да ни спаси и изцели. Ако искаш да видиш истината за този Бог, погледни единственото истинско, ясно, не извратено откровение, погледни към Исус, който каза: “Който е видял Мене, видял е Отца.” (Йоан 14:9).

Приемането на истината за Бога, разкрита в Исус, е първата стъпка към изцелението, защото истината ни връща в състояние на доверие в Бога. Като се доверяваме, ние правим втората стъпка и поканваме Бог да влезе в сърцата и умовете ни. След това се излива Святият Дух, Който ни изпълва с божествена енергия, съзидателна енергия, която ни лекува, преобразява и възстановява, за да бъдем като Христос. Нашите мисли стават в хармония с Него, нашите желания стават като Неговите, нашите мечти, стремежи и копнежи са пречистени и нашите умове и характери биват излекувани. Така че без значение какви са нашите слабости, без значение какви са нашите недостатъци, без значение какви са нашите генетични дефекти, когато сме спечелени отново да се доверим на Бог, можем да бъдем напълно излекувани!

Testimony 62

I would like to express my thanks to the C&R team for creating a platform from which people can learn to trust in God and grow. My life is a witness to the effectiveness of this ministry. Without believing the truth about God as you have shown, I don’t know what my life would be like. I had given up on God helping me with certain sins – it was all useless. Given that the scripture is clear and God is so good, how could I have betrayed him so many times? I was a yo-yo christian; spinning up and down. My faith and enthusiasm was driven by discoveries/threats that prophecy is about to be fulfilled. But when I watched your “Healing the Mind” seminar, it was like a light finally went on. I could see God had no plan to hurt me, the danger came from sin, and that He is working to protect me and strengthen me. Thank you for allowing God to use you. The message God gave C&R saved my life!

Testimony 41

I have been blessed by your ministry. I have experienced personally, and deeply resonate with, the God of love and the beautiful picture of God’s character that you present. I have seen your seminar series on YouTube, read ‘The Journal of the Watcher’ book, used your mobile app, and also listen/study the bible study lesson with you each week. I concur with many of the thoughts and perspectives that you share. I understand your conclusions on natural laws vs imposed law and the legal/penal substitution (incorrect diagnosis). This makes perfect sense to me.

Bless you for all you do.

Testimony 33

I was invited over a friend’s house to see the “God and Your Brain” seminar today. I became [a christian] 36 years ago at the age of 19, but have struggled with the concept of God taking His ‘pound of flesh’ out on His Son to be appeased. Wow. Your seminar has been an incredible revelation and breath of reason and fresh air! I have your book, “The God Shaped Brain,” and it is SO eye opening. Finally, after 36 years enlightenment has come! Praise the Good Lord! What can I say, but that the Real Gospel is truly “Good News!” Thank you for your efforts in giving the Gospel a clear sound!

Testimony 57

You have helped make sense of thirty two years of confusion. The material you freely provide reorganized so much of my life into such a beautiful pattern that has always been hinted at from within, but misguided with my training and what I was experiencing externally. My filipno parents, who were converted from Catholicism to SDA, were sincere and did their best to raise me the right way and I have deep respect for them. However, being immigrants and not understanding the language made for a difficult transition as I was growing up, which also applied to my spiritual growth as I learned the patterns of religion. I have been listening to as many bible study classes and reading blog posts as my time in a work truck will allow, searching for the practical applications of where spirituality and reality meet, and I thank you for helping me find that. You have helped me reach a point in which I can truly say that I love God, that I believe He loves me, and, like David, I delight in His law. God bless.

Testimony 76

Warm greetings from Tanzania! I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and your team at Come And Reason Ministries for the amazing work you do. Your teachings have opened my eyes to deep biblical truths and how to live them out in real life. I started following the ministry back in 2018, and ever since, my walk with God has grown so much stronger. I’ve found freedom from fear-based faith and now live with more peace and trust in Him. I’ve also been sharing what I’ve learned, especially through Bible School discussions. Your lessons are so insightful and well-explained that I try not to miss a single one. May God continue to bless the work you’re doing.

Testimony 43

Two years ago I stumbled upon your book, “Could It Be This Simple,” and then found “The God-Shaped Brain” videos on YouTube, your bible study class, and the ‘Come And Reason’ mobile app. I shared your book with a friend and after nine months of showing love, patience, and kindness this person has been changed by the love of God, too. The same love that healed me, I now express to other women in tangible ways, such as to a Baptist woman with high anxiety and childhood trauma. She was extremely happy and relieved when I shared about the so-called “judgment of God” and burning in hell. She had no desire to serve a God that was so harsh. I have repeated the phrase dozens of times to her. “What we believe has power over us, but we have power over what we believe…”

This message that you are sharing has changed my life. I will continue to serve other women and bring this message of God’s healing love to their lives by sharing your books, YouTube videos, and The Remedy Bible app. Keep up the good work. Don’t be discouraged. God is doing a mighty work in and through this ministry!

Testimony 51

I Love This Ministry!!!!!!! I see first hand how this message is desperately needed, how erroneous beliefs about God and His Character negatively affect humanity at every level. I thank God for your ministry, as I was searching on my own and was discovering some of your same beliefs and was blown away when I found your ministry. I know you hear it all the time, but it is truly life changing. May God continue to reveal His Will to you and Bless you!

Testimony 40

I was brought up in a different faith and have been petrified my whole life of God. I believed that I would burn in hell for eternity. When I was 12 I started pursuing the things of this world, but for the next 45 years the Spirit was always calling me, as I knew there was a God through nature. I could see the vast sea of stars in the universe and knew there was something bigger out there. Five years ago, through a Revelation seminar, I was blessed to learn about God’s character and government.

Then I found Come and Reason Ministries and have come under some extreme pressure when I speak about the ministry. One time a member sent me an internet article titled “Whats wrong with Tim Jennings?” I asked her what she thought of it and she said “I don’t know, I didn’t read it.”

I have always wanted to find out for myself the truth about God, so I stayed with the Design Law construct and have been liberated to understand the big picture. Once we consider Design Law, all other Bible stories and prophecies seem to fit perfectly. It is truly beautiful to see people grasping how God operates this Universe of Love and the liberation it has provided in their lives. It blows my mind to see how consistent Design law is with what our founders believed. I hear statements like “This makes so much sense.”

Testimony 24

I wanted to thank you very much for presenting your understanding of God. I’ve always been troubled by this question: Why did Jesus have to die? Since my conversion I understood that The Father & Jesus are one, I did not have issues with that. But was there not any other way to save us than for Jesus to die? I guess I actually had a question about God – if He is so wise, how come He did not find another way? I did not see the real ‘beauty’  in the cross. Only when you explained the picture in the medical context, Jesus providing medicine for my selfishness, have I started to finally ‘see the light’. Thank you so much. Your seminar, “Healing the Mind,” are absolutely marvelous & have shared them with my family and many other people, including colleagues at work. Thanks, thanks, thanks. May God bless you abundantly in your ministry.

M. W., Australia

 

Testimony 73

I have been truly blessed by your blogs and other resources. They have helped me to see things in a much brighter light and to reason things out better. Thank you so much for your ministry. Whenever I have the opportunity I pass along your material to my friends.

Testimony 68

Your message of design law vs imperial law is so uplifting and makes so much sense- it is a game changer for me. The fact that Jesus’s death is not a big payment by an angry God is , quite frankly, a relief.

I really enjoy with you the view of a gracious God. Thank you for sharing the work you are allowing the Lord to do in you.

Testimony 55

I was born [into the church], then I left it for many years. 10 years ago, I came back, but I could not take the hypocrisy and the lack of answers to the missing pieces. I struggled, but I did not abandon my commitment to know the truth. God is leading me to the simple understanding of his relevance and I am relearning what the church taught me as a youth… that he loves me, that he has led me to a knowledge of him such as I have never known. He is using Dr. Jennings to connect the dots that are now so apparent and hiding in plain sight!

Dean P., Arlington, TX, USA

 

Testimony 48

I just want to tell you how blessed I have been reading “The Remedy!” It has become a daily part of my devotional relationship with God. In it I have found a God of love and a God that loves me! The bible has come alive for me! It is the first time that I can say that I have felt hope fill my heart as I have read God’s word. This is good news I can share! Thank you, Dr Jennings! Thank you for your heart for others. I can’t put into words how this has set me free! It has strengthened my trust and love for God.
