So, You Found "It"?

Funny thing. People who insist that you look at the facts cannot even tell you what a fact is. How big is the
moon? In what direction does the sun move?

When you say you like coffee, is the only fact I know is that you said you like coffee? How do I know you 
didn't lie? And who is the "you" who likes coffee? Are "you" your taste buds, or something else? If something 
else, what is it that you call "you."

If you tell me that it is a fact that you "found God," may I not respond that He wasn't lost? And how do you 
know what you found? Maybe something found you. If so, what was it, and how do you know?

When you went "looking for God" you wanted anything but the God of the Bible. Maybe you found "it." If 
you did, that's awful for you. you won't like "it" when "it" gets through with you.

You say you don't believe the Bible? Good luck with THAT. That suit of clothes has been tried by a lot of 
wretched people. Didn't work for them that well, either. But you got your little kick of sin, though, didn't 
you?

17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the 
LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 And the idols he shall utterly abolish.
19 And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and 
for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.
20 In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself 
to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
21 To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the 
glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.
22 Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?

Isaiah 2
