Two Sides to Every Story?
One of the first things that lawyers and paralegals are taught is to look at “both sides” of each and every story. It is too easy for us to concentrate on the first story we hear and miss important details later on that change the entire scope of the debate.
But in fact, there are thousands of sides to every story, not just two. Everyone has their own interpretation of the facts, and everyone is at least partially convinced that they are correct. It is in the nature of man to draw his own conclusions about each and every controversy.
What are the facts? In That Hideous Strength, C.S. Lewis says, “There are a dozen views about everything until you know the answer. Then there’s never more than one.” This quote (which I found in Alex King’s email signature) is really an eye-opener.
I used to think about my faith in this manner: there is the Truth (God’s Word), and then there is the Lie (everything else). Either people were on my side, or they were on the side of you-know-who.
But it is really not this way. Everyone has their own concept of truth. Witnessing to people just a few times a week will show you how variegated and often strange the beliefs of the “average American” really are. But the fact is that we know the truth.
When we approach people, we have to remember that there is only one truth and only one Way! It isn’t a case of Our side versus their side; we simply have to explain the Truth to them so that they will leave their particular falsehood behind.
There are an infinite number of sides until you know the Truth. Then, there is just One.
Jesus said, “I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man comes to the Father but through me.” John 14:6
You know the truth. Get out there and share it!
In Him,
David S. MacMillan III

I am trying to download the high quality video. When I go to the file hosting web site can you tell me the next steps in the process. It gives you 4 different options Form Upload, Flash Upload, URL Upload and FTP Upload. Thanks for any help that you can give me. Awesome song and video. Keep spreading God’s infallible word. Merry Christmas!!!

You believe everything written in the Bible? You have got to be kidding.
It disagrees with itself and presents all sorts of things that are completely wrong - or do you believe in stoning people?
The unbelieving Chinese, Indians, Japanese, British and Germans are eating our lunch while you are babbling about gods.
