Doubt is the eternal twin of faith.
Many People want to have prove for the existence of God, like in a science lab where peer reviewed numbers can quantify what we know about the physical universe. This is not gonna happen.
Every theologian and philosopher who set out to prove the existence of God, proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the exercise is futile.
Faith cannot be proven, faith can only be experienced. Faith is about living it, going to church, hearing the word, taking communion, trying to love people who are hard to love. Do that 50 Sundays in a row and something will have changed. And despite the change, doubt will always be you companion.
Faith like everything else does not fall from heaven, but faith needs training; – like Arnold pumped iron until he looked like Godzilla.
Rev. Olaf Baumann, sermon, Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Port Angeles WA.
