[QUOTE="JoeP222w, post: 71015609, member: 382024"] In regards to belief in God, God is the one who grant regeneration and faith, so He is the source of belief. If the individual were the source of belief, then yes, they would be tossed to and fro as the waves of the sea. However, for the Christian, since God is the source of belief and faith, and nothing in the individual that creates this belief, in and of themselves, and since God never changes and is solid, a Christian belief will not fail, because it is based in the Creator rather than the created. Our beliefs and understanding of God become refined over time through the process of sanctification, but the fundamental truths of God never change. If a belief can be changed by a refined argument of the opposing side, was your initial belief really based in truth? I would tend to think not. [/QUOTE]
