I am here, had some weekend chores to take care of.
What I meant by science as a crutch is what the Bible tells us, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;" Proverbs 3:5.
People lean on religion, science, family, friends, the internet, drugs, alcohol, etc. as crutches. People require something to lean on when they are in hard times, when they feel down, when they don't know why something is.
Why did the sun come up this morning? Lets use science to figure it out.
What do I do when I feel bad? Go to the church and sing and clap.
What do I do when my spouse leaves me? Open up the whiskey and drink all night.
People have questions and they look for man's solutions to them.
God says, " Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;" Proverbs 3:5.
God wants us to seek Him when we feel bad, God wants us to turn to him when our spouse leaves us, God wants us thank Him for making the sun rise this morning.
Don't rely on the things of man as your crutch, but lean on God's word.
