Wesley Huff

Thank goodness I'm not God.

I would get a whole lot of things wrong.

You wouldn't want to live in that world.

But I think what's interesting is that the cross was not a contingency plan.

The cross was the plan all the way along.

And so God is glorified in that act.

And I think part of it is what I was saying before.

If God is love, if love is the greatest ethic, and the greatest ethic is expressed in love,

the greatest example, which is self-sacrifice, then God is actually communicating the greatest ethic in the greatest possible way in what we see in the gospel message of how he accomplishes the unification with his people for the goodness and glory of who he is.

And do I understand all the complexities and mysteries that go in conjunction with that?

No.

But I'm convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that the historical and the philosophical case for the existence of God and then that God specifically being the God that is articulated in the Bible is true.

And on that basis, I am willing to submit my life because of both the evidence and because I've actually seen evidence.

My own life changed radically.

So you're a friend, right?

You say, like, you've seen an actual –

experiential change in that person's life.

Well, and in that, I don't think that – I think there's an objectivity to the actual evidence that I evaluate in terms of the historical reliability of the Bible and the philosophical explanations for meaning and purpose and morality, how we ground those, the scientific data of a universe that looks like it's fine-tuned and has intelligence designed into it.

But the subjectivity of how I understand my life and have seen it change radically –

And what you see in your friend is not inconsequential.
