An interesting comparison, hosepipe. For just the concept of applying faith, it seems accurate.

I would only add that faith in Christ is a relationship, beyond just faith, it is faithing, an action word of relationship to a very real being. I personally believe Darwin enumerated an interesting concept of how God does some things. That was no small feat by him. But the human desire to reach some definitive knowledge tempts men to go too far in their speculations, to make assertions before all the data is in. It is to be human, I suppose. I have to catch myself all the time in that regard.

True.. we all want to know something...
But when you “know” something “faith” is not required..
WHY? because you know “IT” faith is not required..

Jesus seems to be on vacation and left the “Holy SPirit” in charge of this planet..
Otherwise how and why could he planning on “coming back”.?.
Cause if he’s already here he need not come back..

Unless the new testament is a flawed account and a human look at reality..
Nothing wrong with that, the apostles were by all means human... who could blame them?..

My fav verse of NT lore is... I Cor 2;9
“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”

Now thats is quite a mouthful there..
Smacks to me of reality.. things a human could not even “imagine”..
Yes; even the science fiction folks.. Darwinist’s or anybody “into” physics..
-OR- EVEN a “Christian”...
