Question with Boldness....
So who am I and why should you even listen to me? I’ve already stated that my real name is not Joel Uriel, so why should you put any faith in anything I have to write?
First, in this age of political correctness, we often afraid to question others about what they believe because we want to avoid confrontation. Worse is the fact that all too often we don’t know the answer. There is an area of doubt caused either by our failure to remember what we have been taught, both in Church and school, or, either accidental or on purpose, we were taught wrong.
But here is the next thing to remember:
All the world needs now is one more Christian blog, but I am here to seek Truth. When I have time, I will share what I know. And should anyone actually read this, I will gladly discuss what I write.
My point here is this: Question everything. Make sure that what you believe is correct. And then make sure that you are living in a way consistent with what you believe.

“Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear.”When we have doubts, question with boldness. If you have the facts wrong, you will learn something. At the same time, If you have the facts right, you will enlighten someone else.
- Thomas Jefferson
But here is the next thing to remember:
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.The apostle Paul had just been forced from Thessalonica because what he taught was different than the common thinking and teachings of his time. There were even plans to kill Paul. But when Paul arrived in Berea, he found a different mind set: here the people would listen to him, then consult the scriptures to see for themselves if what Paul taught was correct. These Bereans were considered “more noble” because they were seeking the truth.
- Acts 17:11 (KJV)
