Why Do You Do That?

Today was our first official day of class and Chris Adams, who's in his late 20's, was our speaker. He's a great guy. He leads another school and is one of the worship leaders on base here. His topic for us was the history of this generation and holiness. I learned so much today oh my goodness. It's crazy to see him stand up and then speak out what we think to our faces and be so bang on and then go back to 1200s and start explaining why we act and think the way we do.
One of the biggest things that I had never really thought of was the whole idea of science and how it got twisted and started kicking God out of the picture. What I got out of it was that science was never meant to influence the spiritual side of things. The Bible doesn't tell us everything about the universe - but because God is a rational God, we are rational and therefore can begin to research and understand how things work - ie our bodies, stars, planets, growth, molecules etc. And that was all intended to make us obviously stand in awe of who God is that He could do that so quickly - which for many of us it does. But before this type of science came into the picture I guess Greek philosophy started getting integrated into religion when the Romans took over and that's a whole other story - but anyways - basically humanism is thought up. Where we think that we are so much greater than God because we discovered something.. it's like wow I just found a new fish.. and now I'm smarter than God - fools anyways. So humanism starts affecting science and therefore this conclusion is made: since we now understand that the world revolved around the sun, we don't need God there anymore. (which doesn't at all make sense but basically that happened to everything I guess and we totally "killed God") I had never thought of it that way before. How science was meant to find what God never told us in the Bible you know.. and then somehow we twisted it to eliminate Him. Anyways.. we also talked about the strengths and weakness of our generation and where they all come from which I find incredibly fascinating because I like to know things haha. But basically we concluded to that the sole issue with todays youth in this generation is self idoletry. Which comes from us being told so many lies about having no purpose and since we have no purpse we can do whatever we want because it doesn't matter. And since nothing matters who's to tell us what we can and cannot do. Anyways I'm gunna stop there but I'm getting so excited to keep going - if I've learned this much in 1 day I can't wait to see where God's going to have taken my by next June. Sorry this was kinda boring... but I'm excited because I also learned that I like to learn! haha
