Thanksgiving Day 19 Genesis 3:11-15

'And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat. And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. '

What am I thankful for today?  Prophecy!  What does that have to do with the here and now?  Everything!  If what was predicted in the past came true at a 99% rate, you would probably believe what was told about the future.  My God is better than that!  100% of the prophecies that were given about Jesus and His first coming came true!  That makes me believe He will come again like He said!  

Here is some logic if you still doubt.  If you want to read the entire listing, it came from this website: 

A number of years ago, Peter W. Stoner and Robert C. Newman wrote a book entitled Science Speaks. The book was based on the science of probability and vouched for by the American Scientific Affiliation. It set out the odds of any one man in all of history fulfilling even only eight of the 60 major prophecies (and 270 ramifications) fulfilled by the life of Christ.

The probability that Jesus of Nazareth could have fulfilled even eight such prophecies would be only 1 in 1017. That's 1 in 100, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000.

Stoner claims that that many silver dollars would be enough to cover the face of the entire state of Texas two feet deep. Now I've been to Texas. I've driven for days to get across Texas. Texas is a very big state. Who in his right mind would suppose that a blindfolded man, heading out of Dallas by foot in any direction, would be able, on his very first attempt, to pick up one specifically marked silver dollar out of 100, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000?


I think that is plenty of proof.  If you still want to doubt, that is not a lack of faith, that is rebellion against God. I am sorry to break it to you but it is true.  Belief in Jesus is not blind faith.  All faith is based on some information.  The information in favor of Jesus is massive!


If you want to believe in Jesus, not just about Him, in Him, I can introduce you.  He will not disappoint you!  I promise.  You will disappoint Him but He will not disappoint you!

PS.  Do you know how big Texas is?  I was born there and when we would drive to WV to visit family it would take us 3 days.  My dad was the only one who could drive and he would drive all day and we would stop every night at a hotel.  The first day?  That is how long it took to get out of Texas!


Here is a clip from a website (https://infographicjournal.com/how-big-is-texas/)

At 268,596 square miles, Texas is a big state — the second largest, of course, after Alaska. As it turns out, if Texas were a country it would also be one of the largest in the world, ranking as the 39th largest country by area our of around 200 countries, just a tad larger than Myanmar. However, those stats may not give you a great idea of how Texas’ girth actually compares to different countries, since size is often better understood visually.
