I remember you reading that book. I started reading you before you became a Christian, I think, but I don't really remember anything other than you seeking God.
I bought, "The Case For Faith," a few years ago. My thing is, I've always believed in Jesus, but I never knew how to apply it. Lee Strobel is an awesome author.
I LOVE A Case for Christ! Even the most skeptical Christian cannot ignore the logic and fact in that book.
I can relate to the feeling of hating God one moment and loving Him the next. For me, it was an immediate transition that happened at a distinct point in time. After that, I had no desire to go "halfway" with my walk.
That is so amazing how one moment you didn't believe and the next you did. It's so simple sometimes. I can't wait to read more. I don't know much about the ICOC either.
Your testimony is amazing! I can't wait to read the rest. So encouraging to read. Its amazing how God works in our lives and gets our attention. I really need to check out that book.
If Baptism remits sins, why do Catholic parents often choose to baptize their children at such young ages? I was raised in the Catholic church, so I can't seem to understand this. I understand that Confession (or Penance) is another way to be forgiven for your sins, but why not wait for Baptism until the child is old enough to make decisions about their faith and commit sins?
