Hello again! Well, we had another great night with The Truth Project Life Group. If anyone is reading this and would like to attend - WE WELCOME YOU TO ATTEND. We meet at my house every Tuesday evening at 7 pm. Usually we sit around and talk for a couple minutes - my wife always has some cookies, crackers, etc to snack on - then we open with a prayer and begin the lesson. Once the lesson is finished we go around the room and talk about it, i.e. what were the particularly interesting points for you, etc. So, feel free to join us and if you decide that you'd like to make up the lessons that you've missed... we'll sit down and find a time and date to do so.
Back to Lesson 2. Truly too much to blog about, so I'll go over some of the more salient highlights that we discussed as a group. I believe we all recognize that Carl Sagan is deceived and truly believing a lie - to think that we are all created from 'star stuff'...? and to actually think that the cosmos is all that ever was, is, or will be...? WOW, that is true deception. I hope that we all can pray for men & women who think and believe this way - truly they are lost as they attempt to put the answers in a box or "the cosmic cube". Those who are unwilling to look outside “the cosmic cube” for the fulfillment of this need try to find ways to “bring God inside” by identifying Him in some way or other with “the stuff in the box.” This is the source of spiritual naturalism, paganism, pantheism, and panentheism.
Other highlights from the lesson are:
1. Philosophy: The love of wisdom. The systematic examination of basic concepts such as truth, existence, reality, freedom, etc. Webster's 1828 dictionary definition: "The objects of philosophy are to ascertain facts or truth, and the causes of things or their phenomena; to enlarge our views of God and his works…" True religion and true philosophy must ultimately arrive at the same
principle.
2. Ethics: The standard, the line, that which ought to be. The principles of conduct governing a person or group of people.
3. Universals: Broad "universal" truth claims that provide meaning to the smaller "particular" questions in life. "Universals" provide answers to the great philosophical questions we face.
4. Particulars: Individual truth claims; the small details that describe "particular" objects.
5. Metamorphoo: Greek for "transformation." Root of the word "metamorphosis." This is the primary goal of The Truth Project: for individuals to be transformed into the likeness of Christ by gazing on the face of God. This process is not easy and we often struggle with God's Truth claims in the "cocoon." Metamorphoo is used in Romans 12:2, where it is usually translated as "transformed."
I'm looking forward to Lesson 3 - Anthropology: Who is Man? After Lesson 3, we may take a the next Tuesday to simply fellowship and discuss more of Lessons 1 thru 3.
So if anyone is interested in attending - let me know or just come by.
Be Blessed & Testify to the TRUTH!

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something that I think I would never understand.
It seems too complicated and very broad for me.
I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
