Recently and very good friend of mine sent me an article titled; "Thinking can undermine religious faith, study finds". After reading the article I responded to him this way:
1Co 1:25-27 NKJV Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. (26) For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. (27) But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;
What I found interesting is that God already knew this and further stated that because of this "handicap", not many noble (intellectually challenged) are called? How sad that those who think themselves "smarter" actually will be found to be "Spiritual Fools" in the end.
The article talked about analytical thinkers. I have taken several test which confirmed that I too am analytical to the point of being hemorrhoidal! The article ended by saying even the most "religious" (I hate that term) have moments of doubt. DUHH! I never doubt God and who He is, just what He is doing.
Lady Huntington, a friend of Whitfield and the Wesleys: She was “saved by an ‘m’:” It says “not many,” not “not any.”
Finally, I am glad that I am not hindered by to much intelligence (did I spell that write) (I mean right). This I do know: I am a Fool for Christ. Who's Fool are you?
Blessings
