Nature Never Stops Talking
Nov. 9, 2005
Response to Questions
I suppose it would be OK for me to "come
out" about my faith. Yes, I absolutely believe God created everything
that exists. I have also learned over the past thirty years that God is
far more practical than I could have imagined as a young man.
"Truth never contradicts truth" and this is an accurate statement.
I believe the Bible is true. PERIOD.
In the science arena, I am more willing to play by its rules, I want to
present to the world observable reality. The truth ALWAYS has evidence
as you referred to discovering more Bible history evidence by
archeologists.
The absence of a mention of God by me is not embarassment at all about
my faith. I am choosing my words carefully because in science, God is
also proved true.
I want everyone to know that all of nature is speaking the truth. Even
in Romans 1:20 it says Ro 1:20 "For since the creation of the world His
invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been
clearly seen, being understood through what has been made..." Wow. Do
you see that. God is the Author of scripture and nature. The scripture
promises us that if we direct folks to nature - NATURE will declare
God's invisible attributes, His eternal power and His divine nature.
This is why getting away from the city off to a place surrounded by
nature is so universally therapeutic. God is speaking. My book is about
listening to nature and using deductive reasoning about what is plainly
there.
In a room full of well-educated evolutionists, evolution sounds pretty
convincing. I used to believe it. On the other hand, a walk in the
woods surrounds me with evidence of splendor and genius - not
accidents.
I am becoming more and more aware of parents and teachers reading
"Nature Never Stops Talking" to their elementary school age children.
I'm amazed. I intentionally tried writing the column to reach the
average person with the scientific marvels in nature since 1994. I do
not think an elementary school age child could understand everything in
the book unassisted. I do know now, from others, that it is a great
"Let's sit down and go over a couple pages" kind of book.
Yes, I think it would be a terrific gift for your children if you
understand what I just explained. I believe you will also enjoy it.
It is also being used in at least one adult Sunday school class in Columbus, Georgia I recently learned on my trip there.
I can answer more later as I must scoot to get to a library book signing in Oakhurst, CA right now.
You can also see excerpts and the table of contents at the book's website: www.NatureNeverStopsTalking.com
My email is Sam@BestChapter.com if you like me to email you more
specifics. I am answering directly on the blog because I believe others
may be wondering some of the same things as you. Thanks for your
question.
I sure hope you see this blog written mostly for you.
Kindly,
Samuel J Alibrando
