Faith is the conviction of things without any evidence, on the basis of the testimony of the Holy Spirit. We don't require evidence or logic. The hellbound heathens can be smug about such things but we who are saved have wisdom that comes from the grace of the Lord.
Yes, the Bible contradicts itself but this only shows the power of our Lord. Jesus was born before 4 BC and after 6 AD at the same time. He is everywhere and capable of being two contradictory things at once. That's why contradictions don't matter.
What does time mean to our Lord. He can create animals before and after creating man at the same time. He can also make round squares and straight curves.
Embrace the contradictions, knowing that they only validate just how anything is possible through our Lord.
You damn Landover baptist people..... I hate it when you guys come along because you end up almost making me a Christian again :'(
