Perhaps it is not God who has fooled us, but we who have fooled ourselves.

"Perhaps it is not God who has fooled us, but we who have fooled ourselves."


The just shall live by faith. Without faith, it is impossible to please God.

1. Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2. By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4. And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
5. And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
6. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
8. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Ro.5:1-9

Hello, sleepy hollow. All the scientific proof in the world would be insufficient for the unbeliever, unfortunately. But we must continue to preach the word of God, the elect are still out there, as faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
I do enjoy these articles, science proves the Lord God's Word as correct, of course, but also proves that only the faith of Jesus Christ is what God expects and accepts of mankind.
