I Believe in God, but I Trust in Science, Not the SupernaturalSample
Jesus answers the questions science can't reach.
While science is positioned to answer “how” questions, Christianity is positioned to answer “why,” “where,” and “who.” And therefore, science needs faith. Because even if you completely understand “how,” you will always be left wondering “why,” “where,” and “who”?
- “Why do I exist?” Why do I feel like there’s something more? Why do I long for meaning and purpose if this is all there is? These are the questions that science can’t answer, but Jesus can.
- “Where did I come from, and where am I going?” Science can only lead us so far, but the big questions like “Where did I come from?”, “Where am I going?”, “Where do I seek the source of ultimate truth?” “Where will I go when I die?” Science can’t answer that, but Jesus can.
- “Who will I trust?” So, when it comes to you, “who?” That’s the question- atheist, agnostic, Christian – who? Who will you trust? Who will you believe? Who will provide you with the ultimate answers? Science isn’t a who, so science can’t answer that, but Jesus can.
Are you satisfied only knowing the “how”? Would you be confident that you are headed in the right direction without having any answers to “why,” “where,” and “who”? Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6) Will you confess now that Jesus has what science can’t offer? Will you confess Jesus as the “who” that you will trust?
Ask Yourself: Is there anything holding me back from putting my trust in Jesus?
Pause to Pray: Jesus, I confess you now as the “who” that I trust. I believe you died on the cross for my sins and rose again on the third day. Jesus, I confess you now as my Lord and Savior. Thank you for saving me. Amen.

About this Plan
Gallup poll researchers recently asked Americans, “Do you believe in God?” and 87% of the people said yes. But if we are honest, most of us have issues when it comes to faith. We would love for you to join us as we explore some common thoughts about Christianity and science being mutually exclusive.
