Hello Tony,

I mentioned on this thread that my beliefs are based on the bible and on faith, the latter of which is difficult to accept by scientists. Faith is not tangible, you can see it in action but not the One in whom that faith is placed. But even in science there is much speculation and unproven theory.

With that thought in mind consider this. Something unique to Christianity
- you can find the graves of the founders of all other religions in the world while Christs' grave is empty because we serve a risen saviour.
- in other religions you have to seek some concept of God or enlightenment or work your way through a system and maybe you find salvation or become like a god. Not so in Christianity, God comes looking for you and offers salvation freely because the price has been paid by Jesus. The choice rests with the hearer. Do I believe the message or not. The bible teaches that knowledge of salvation is for here and now accepted by faith in the word of God.

With equal respect,
John
