It can be tempting to just see life as purely a physical thing and to ignore the other dimensions that we know in our heart exist. There are some people who would say that unless they can see something they do not believe it exists. This is quite a short sighted argument even on a basic level. I have never been to Australia but I know it exists because people whose judgement I trust have been there and described it to me.
I believe in God and I believe in a literal heaven (and hell to be honest). Now I have never seen God or been in heaven but I am persuaded that there must be a greater power, a designer and originator by the evidence I see in the physical world. However I would be totally in the dark as to what God and heaven are like if I did not have the record of the Bible and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Any thinking person will be need to be convinced that the Bible is a trustworthy document and that Jesus Christ was and is genuine in his character and claims before they will believe what they have to say. If you are reading this and are interested to discover the truth then have a look at the following websites josh.org or rzim.org (these are not wacky extremist websites but rational and logical explanations of the truth). Don't look at them if you have already decided what you believe and have a closed mind, they are only for people who really are prepared to face up to the truth.
May God bless you as you face a New Year.
