Ten years ago I began on a journey to discover if what I believed about God was true. Over the course of time I realized that many things I had come to accept from religion were not what the Bible actually teaches. Some of the things I had learned in church or through ministers on radio or TV. More often than not, many of the things I believed were simply conclusions I had made based on the experiences of my life.
Through this journey I have come to realize that even though the experiences I have may not match up exactly to the Word of God, it is not God’s fault. God gives us a free will and each of us have choices to make. The experiences we encounter in life are a result of those choices. It is impossible, nor is it fair to try to reduce God to the experiences of an imperfect man or woman’s choices. Unfortunately that is what many people do each day.
