It was Christ's method. Which would indicate Christ was forcing people to seek Him out on a personal and not a corporate level. Meaning to scrutinize is to test expecting to yield a given result and to be able to duplicate it. In short you want to put God in a box, and poke Him a certain way to get an expected response... Well, what if God does not want to get inside your box and be poked?
You should present us with OBJECTIVE evidence, not something that depends on one's personal thoughts.
The alternative is to tell the people who fancy themselves sophisticated monkeys, to do XYZ and they will get 123. Which as it seems is as close to being able to put God in a box as He will allow you to get.
Quote:Plus (I will repeat it even though it has already been said countless times in this thread) A/S/King is not even falsifiable, as if one fails to reach the conclusions you wanted them to, you can always say he didn't try hard enough, without ever showing a clear and rigorous course of action.Again, (I will repeat it even though it has already been said countless times in this thread and in others already) to falsify this process one must let go his 'straw god' and ask seek knock as outlined in Luke 11. A promise has been made by God here. If one follows luke 11, and does not receive what was promised, the premise has been falsified.
You may not like the terms but the premise is indeed falsifiable.
