       Some think that just as they can pick whatever they want to eat off of a restaurant menu, for instance, they believe they can just pick and choose what they want to believe about our world. And people think that each person has the ‘right’ to have these individual beliefs. Yes, a person has the ‘ability’ to develop whatever beliefs he or she wishes about religion or our world in general. But that does not mean that these beliefs represent reality, represents the truth. I understand this is a hard teaching, but it’s a teaching that we have to come to terms with as individuals. And it’s not that, we, as Christians, are just trying to force our views or opinions on others, but rather we are trying to get people to go to the same Book where we find the realities of life—the Bible. We want others to base their beliefs about the world in what the Bible says, on what God says about reality, and not what we are coming up with in our own minds, our own opinions. No, the Christian’s beliefs come from what God says alone.
