Minority Report
Human Nature
August 16, 2015 • Pastor Richard Schmidt
If we are all good at heart, why is it taking so long for the world to evolve to a better place? The truth is the human heart is selfish, self-centered, and self-seeking. This was not God's original plan for us, but a result of Adam and Eve's trust in themselves rather than God and their temptation by Satan. If our hearts are truly focused only on ourselves, what hope do we have? Fortunately God had another plan. Through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit we are given a new heart. One which seeks to overcome the three "selfs" we are born with.
Beginnings

God's creation is awesome! Complex and simple. Powerful and gentile. Beautiful and fearful. Science has given us a peek into the workings of creation but only scratches the surface. Today's culture however would have us feel that believing beyond what we know from science, believing that God is author and creator of it all, is an irrational point of view. Science has indeed answered many questions, but the most important questions - why do we matter, why do we love, why would a Saviour die on a cross for us can only be answered from a Biblical perspective.
