relation to God's existence is automatically
synonymous with unbelief. It is far from a simple
clear cut question, for if God does exist, then
nothing else really matters; if He does not exist,
then nothing really matters at all. If He does
exist, then there is an eternal heaven to be
gained (Hebrews 11: 16) and an eternal Hell to be
avoided (Revelation 21: 8). The question for God's
existence is an extr...

Fly Fishing German Brown Hole

one of the most memorable fly fishing experiences
that I have ever had in my lifetime. I will never
