Questions For The Faint of Faith And Not For The Frustrated and Faint of Heart

Part of the “Dangerous Unchecked Knowledge that Puffs Up” Series

Here is a list of questions designed to be read in order. They are not for the faint of heart and probably should not be read by those severely frustrated by the decline of traditional, conservative evangelical Christianity in the Western world. These questions will only make you MORE frustrated.

After some thought on the matter, I am not going to warn those who are currently struggling with their faith, particularly with regards to the purpose of this post, to avoid reading the questions and seeking to find the answers in Scripture. I believe that these questions may help edify them and buttress their faith. Hopefully, this will be the case. But if one does find doubts creeping into their thoughts, the best method of dealing with such doubts is to ask God for help in overcoming those doubts: “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief” (Mark 9:24).
