Rational faith is audacious, violent, bold and supernatural.
It is violent because it refuses to believe in the God of Abraham and live like Lazarus;
It is violent because it refuses to believe in the God of Moses and remain enslaved by the Egyptians;
It is violent because it refuses to believe in the God of Joshua and not obtain His promises;
It is violent because it refuses to believe in the God of Gideon, be called a Christian and continue being humiliated by the enemy;
It is violent because it believes that the God of David remains the same and will not allow the Goliaths of today to prevail;
It is violent because His Son has already overcome the principalities and powers of darkness, therefore it is unacceptable that they remain in control;
It is violent because the Kingdom of Heaven must be taken by force;
It is violent because, although He is the God of peace, He promised to crush Satan under our feet. Romans 16.20;
It is violent because it is constantly revolted and at war against the forces of darkness.
Rational faith is violently against the things of this world and the world is against those who possess it. This is why those who possess it are God’s friend and the devil’s enemy.
"Whoever, therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God."
James 4.4
