living sacrifice

Baptism, in the eyes of many people who do not believe in God, may be the same as what I felt at the time.I knew in my heart that this ceremony was sacred, but I didn't think it would actually have any great significance.

What Sister Zhao said at the time, "Death, burial, and resurrection with the Lord Jesus", I didn't know what it was at all, but I thought it sounded very powerful.

Until now, I don’t know what the baptism will lead to other than the meanings mentioned in theology, but it did lead to a very strange thing that I experienced later.

I am a very rigid person.

Not every Christian has suffered such a sin before believing in the Lord, and not everyone who suffers is willing to repent, but in fact it was because of my suffering that I realized that there is really a God.

However, my spirit is dead. Even though the Lord has given me so many proofs, I still cannot firmly say that I believe in the Lord.I was still checking all kinds of information, until I couldn't find anything, so I gave up.

However, in the week after my baptism, every day was like playing a movie in my mind.My entire life, from my childhood to my 30s, has been unfolding before my eyes one after another.

I can't say that I don't believe in God. I just don't know where the theory of evolution is wrong, just like when I look at the theory of evolution today, I don't even know where it is right.This is really a very strange thing.

I believe that people who read this article should be in a similar situation to me at that time, or other situations.

The evolutionary system always regards religion as belief, and some politics as belief, but does not classify itself as belief.It claims to be science, and in its system, science is the highest level, and everything else is lower.Therefore, in its system, Christianity is "just" a "lower" religion mixed with other religions.It relies on such methods to belittle God, and to cause people to ignore God's Word with pride.

But it has never allowed man to do one thing - to prove that God does not exist.

Does God exist?Can people see it?Is the existence of God really invisible to man?Or is it that people do not want to be able to see themselves, so they hide their ears and steal their bells?

Check out this nature.Does the dog's tail grass look like a dog's tail?Does a geoduck look like something (excuse the vulgarity of this description)?Have you ever heard of exotic species like shirt trees and shoe trees?Why are there so many strange things in nature, are they naturally evolved, just like this for no reason?

Why does water have such special properties? If the water on the earth did not have the properties it has today, there would be no life on the earth. This is what we have learned in science class. So does water exist by chance?

Why are the elements of the human body so similar to earth?This is another knowledge learned in junior high school.When the "Bible" says that God created man, you will unconsciously think of the action of kneading clay, and then you will think it is ridiculous.But quartz sand contains silicon, which can be made into chips after extraction, and chips can be made into various electronic products, from sand to computers. Do you think this is understandable?What is the difference between this and God creating man out of soil?oh!It turns out that God's craftsmanship is too complicated for people to understand, so people don't become humble, but find it funny?

E=mc?, simply understood as mass and energy can be converted into each other, popularly speaking, it is a nuclear reaction.But what if the change is reversed?Nuclear reaction is the transformation of nuclear matter into energy. If energy can be shrunk into matter, this is the process by which God created the earth.I think this kind of metaphor is not appropriate enough, but God said that there is something, and the order is there.I really can't imagine that God created an earth with enormous energy in only six days. What a great and amazing feat this is!It is not easy for scientists to find out this formula from the world created by God, but the former is a great creation using energy, while the latter discovers the formula in creation, and there is no way to compare the two.

Scientists have always humbly said that they "discovered these laws in nature", and they were not wrong. Those laws were originally hidden in nature, because the "Bible" says that God created the world according to Jesus Christ.In this way, there are hidden pieces of the Lord Jesus in every discipline we study.The Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry, biology, etc. we learn at school are just a small part of Jesus. Looking at it this way, this God is so great that people are afraid.

I've always avoided the question of God's existence, and it never occurred to me that I needed to prove that God does not exist.But now I'm getting serious.

It was an ordinary weekday after my first communion.

That night, I worked overtime until eight o'clock before going home.

Because it is summer, in the garden in the middle of the street in the community, there are old men sitting in twos and threes enjoying the shade, and there are a few puppies.

The sound of cicadas chirping, this is a very ordinary night.

I was walking on the road, but my heart was inexplicably shrouded in hatred.The incident from the past came back to my mind again. It was like an inescapable chain, tormenting me all the time.This thing is my secret and I'm almost overwhelmed by it.I hate those two people who hurt me.At that time, my hatred for them reached an unforgettable level. I thought that if I was really given a knife, I would stab them both to death without hesitation.

I was walking on the road, and the darkness suddenly enveloped me, and my heart was tormented.

My heart was devastated and I thought to myself: why?Why are there no evil rewards for the wicked, and why did they treat me like this?

At this moment, a young voice came to my ears, the voice was gentle and clear, and he said to me: "Their spirits are moving in the kingdom of darkness."

I heard the voice and looked back, but no one was by my side except the few old men who were enjoying the shade.

There were no other voices, and no one spoke again, but my heart suddenly regained its calm.

If it were you, what would be your normal reaction to such a strange event?I thought if I was in a more normal state, I should at least find out the reason, look around, and ask who was talking.

But I just regained my composure and left. I just looked back to see that there was no one there, and I didn't feel scared or abnormal.

My reaction is abnormal!

My reaction at the time was beyond my comprehension.When this strange thing happened, I didn't react too much. I just turned around and continued to go to You Yan's house safely.

I live very close to You Yan’s house, and since I went to church, I’ve been more diligent in visiting her house.

That day You Yan asked me to go to her house for dinner. She opened the door for me and changed my shoes, but I still looked dull.

You Yan asked me: "Baby Lin Xiao, did you work hard today? How do you think you haven't spoken since you came in?"

"Work is tiring, but what I'm thinking about is a strange thing that just happened."

You Yan suddenly became interested, she picked up a chopstick of meat for me, and asked me with bright eyes: "What's the matter? Lin Xiao, I have been praying for you, asking the Lord to reveal himself to you, so that you can see it with your own eyes. He, heard him with his own ears."

"That's right... I'm also asking for it according to the method you said. I did hear a voice just now, but I don't know if it's the kind of hearing you said?"

"Really? Did you hear the voice too? Oh! It's so wonderful! Lin Xiao! I'm so happy! Thank you and praise the Lord!"

"How did you hear it? You keep saying that you can hear the voice of God, how can He speak to you?"

"Baby, that's a little voice, in my heart, that teaches me in everything. Sometimes he speaks to me in tongues, too."

"But I didn't hear it with my heart, I just heard it with my ears."

"That's the same! How nice! I'm so glad!"

I think You Yan didn't understand what I meant, and it was only at this time that my reflex arc slowly turned around.Thinking about the situation at that time carefully, there was no one around me, but the voice was very close to my ears, as if it was by my side.

Is it radio?I am very confused.

But wouldn't it be weirder if it was a broadcast?How could our country allow people to broadcast broadcasts such as "their spirits are moving in the kingdom of darkness" in the middle of the night?Doesn't our country disapprove of theism?Even if there is such a broadcast, it will definitely be banned, right?

"Is that really the voice of God?" I frowned suspiciously.

You Yan clapped his hands and shouted loudly: "Tell me, what did he say?"

"He said 'their spirits are at work in the kingdom of darkness'."

"Of course it is the Lord! Lin Xiao, I am so grateful to the Lord for you! You are so blessed that the Lord is willing to reveal Himself to you."

"Is that the voice of God?"

You Yan poked his waist and asked back: "You silly boy, who is not the master?"

I thought for a while and said, "It seems that there is no one else around. Maybe... it's the broadcast?"

"Of course it is the Lord! You little fool!"

But I am very entangled in this matter, because according to my habit of doing things, I want to find out everything.But I found that in Christianity, it seems that there is no way to get to the bottom of everything. This casserole is too deep, what should I do if I can’t break it?How could I find out if it was God speaking to me?

The only good thing about this happening is that I can forget about evolution.This made me breathe a sigh of relief, because if I want to spend time exploring how the universe came to be, I am afraid that I will not be able to finish it in my entire life. This is a topic that humans have studied for thousands of years.

Because of this happening, I'm pretty sure the spirit world is real.And at least I can be sure that the theoretical system I learned in school is wrong, because the spirit world is real-the invisible world, it really exists.

I used to hear about the spiritual world at my dad's place, because he is a Qigong practitioner, and he always told me those weird things.He said that his master would float in the air when he sleeps, etc. In fact, these things can easily attract the attention of others, but I have not been interested in what he said since I was a child.

The spiritual world seemed to me to have a cover in the middle, and it was not until after I was baptized that the cover was opened for the first time.I believe this is the Lord's protection for me, otherwise I would have lost myself in those mysterious events very quickly without His protection.This pit is much deeper than the pit of evolution theory.

What does evolution say about the universe?The theory of evolution says that the universe was formed in a big bang, and after a long evolutionary evolution, the present world was gradually formed.The theory of evolution does not admit that there is a spiritual world, there are no gods, and there are no ghosts. The theory of evolution says that those are all fictions and superstitions. This is the education I have received since I was a child.

I spent a lot of painstaking effort and energy to recite, practice repeatedly, and receive education. In the end, God used 13 words to decipher the "achievements" of my life, but I still have to thank God for these 13 words, because they , are all God's grace.

I've been thinking about that quote, including now.I think not only Wang Xuanhuan and his boyfriend, but also myself. When I was not saved, my soul was always in the kingdom of darkness, so the devil did whatever he wanted to me. The "Bible" says "the evil spirits that work in the hearts of the sons of disobedience".I admit that I am like this myself, and God says everyone is like this, there is no good person, no exception.
