A quote from said link:
"A small child cannot comprehend the laws that govern nature, but this is on account of the immature intellect of that child; when he is grown older and has been educated he too will understand the everlasting truths. A child does not grasp the fact that the earth revolves round the sun, but, when his intelligence is awakened, the fact is clear and plain to him. | This assertion is incorrect because the entire thought process is flawed. The child cannot chomprehend that the sun revolves around the earth because the child has no frame of refrence to compaire with! For years the most intellegent men were convinced that the earth was the center of the universe, only to be proven wrong because they were wrong. This is to say that clear teaching from scripture is not true and only applies to the blind and simple. Paul wrights " oh foolish Galations, when did you trade the truth of God for a lie?" I ask you the same question. |
