St Augustin and the Catholic view of Biblical science/history
St. Augustin noted apparent contradictions with history and the bible.
His statement, back in the 4th century or so, as history records was-
that the bible is not a textbook, or a history book.

Conscience is the guidance of The True God, via our internal sense of morals, and by direct prompting- towards the truth, love, hope, and faith. Christians have ” the law written on their hearts and minds” in the ink of truth. We “have only one teacher- [our] father in heaven” This teacher teaches through every [...]

“We stood there, as he spoke to us,
Only we remember.
Only we were there, all other records are dead, or based on what we said.
As Empires fade, and nations split, as dawn does come, as life does shift.
Still constant, stiil, stil waters hardly move.
The waters passed, the waters came. Life repeats, and spirals down.
Still constant, ever [...]

“Fire in the water
Fire in the water, fire in the sea,
Once, past time remembered, it covered all, not thee,
All but eight, washed by the ark,
The earth was flooded, now I’m flooded again.
Like then like now, baptism, obedience,
We do the illogical,
We trust on obedience,
And follow the command.
Like then, like now,
Impossible, come out.
Obedience for forgiveness,
Forgiveness in grace.
For [...]

You know my will,
What I’d do.
You know my wants.
You know my needs.
You know my tears. I’m weeping now,
Inside where I cannot wipe my tears,
There, as soul tears in two,
There I cry. Forsaken to misery, I weep.
“Thy will”
“Thy will”
I echo the famous cry.
The cry of Mary, my mother,
And Jesus, who died for you,
My father.
May my “Fiat [...]

God of fire
God of fire, God of light
God of water, God, divine.
Active, almighty, present in all,
God of Fire, God of Light
Like water in triple point,
Three things, but one,
Like fire in the fireplace,
For not just the wood,
Not the smoke, light or heat alone.
Yet the light is the fire, the smoke, heat and wood.
God of Fire, God [...]

”No one can come to me unless the father has enabled them”- Jesus of Nazareth (The Son of Man)
Conversion is the ultimate miracle. It is impossible for a man to save another, or pay for his sins. It is impossible to come to God, it is impossible to be righteous, It is impossible to change, [...]
