Case for Faith

excerpts from case for faith that really resonated with me=)

"Ultimately faith isnt about having perfect and complete answers to every single one of the big eight objections. after all we dont demand the same level of conclusive proof in any other area of life. the point is that we certainly do have sufficient evidence about God upon which to act. and in the end, thats the issue. Faith is about a choice, a step of the will, a decision to want to know God personally. It's saying "I believe - please help my unbelief!""

"If God does not exist, then life is futile. if the God of the bible does exist, then life is meaningful. only the second of these two alternatives enables us to live happily and consistently. therefore it seems to me that even of the evidence for these two options were absolutely equal, a rational person ought to choose biblical Christianity. it semms to me positively irrational to prefer death, futility, and destruction to life, meaningfulness and happiness. as [blaise] pascal said, we have nothing to lose and infinity to gain"

"by the way we live our lives we're either preparing ourselves for being in God's presence and enjoying him for eternity or we're preparing ourselves for an existence where we try to make ourselves the centre of the universe and we have no interest in being with God or the people who love him." ... "so hell is not simply a sentence. It is that, but it's also the end of a path that is choosen, to some degree, in this life right here and now, day by day."
