Why I Believe

The Importance of FaithHebrews 11:1-6

God’s desire:

We believe in Him

We seek Him

The Seeds of Doubt…Scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.“

2 Peter 3:3-4

The Seeds of DoubtEvolution – our ungodly origin

Prehistory – our unbiblical past

Theology – our less than divine God

Psychology – our carnal mind
