October 12 Colossians 2 See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit

For centuries men have made the philosophical or logical argument against Christ. Let's face it there really is no logical reason to accept Christ, but salvation isn't based on logic, it's faith. There are two main positions to take when confronted with the "educated" who will try to argue against our faith. One can study hard, know as much as possible and enter into debate. I see very few that are won this way. Or one can take on the attitude of a small child. Ever try to argue with a 5 year old? Believing simple ideas, God came and reconciled Himself to man through Jesus. Logic simply doesn't enter into it. I don't remember who s supposed to have said this, some biblical scholar was asked what was the most important thing he learned in all of his years. Jesus loves me this I know, for the bible tells me so. No philosophy or logic can argue with that attitude.
