What is the purpose of truth if one is to learn their faith? Learn and proof definitions are different.
The role of Christian truth, not truth as a whole, is to learn more about god and your purpose to follow. Knowledge rather than ignorance strengthens your faith, hopefully, so you are comfortable with it? You ask?
Finding Christian truth for proof of it is not questioning for knowledge. It this context it means learning New information in order to confirm and support the factual nature of knew faith. When there is NO doubt, it's saying you know everything.
Without self analyzing to support ones belief, its blind faith by definition.
While many christians are comfortable with that, I'd assume those who are comfortable in their faith are not. It doesn't mean you are doubting as if you are questioning god. You are questioning to gain more understanding for information that may be unclear to you or false by your Mental reasoning.
That's very different than a seeker questioning for proof. But sometimes the Christian gets defensive as if we are falling them seekers are ignorant all because they take their faith at face value.
Can I as, are these quotes memorized? I always wanted to ask (no one answered) because they distract your point. If you want to quote do it in two or three line segments so we can read (and have time to dead) what your talking about and why you quote. Also, summarize big chunks of scripture and sources. Unless it's a scripture discussion I assume no one reads these long quotes. It's highly repetitive among RF members and very distracting.

Might I ask? What is the role of TRUTH in one's effort to learn {"prove"????} ones faith.
