There is a categorical difference between believing you are a good Christian and actually being a good Christian. Being a good Christian means believing right things. Believing right things means believing things that make sense. Things that make sense are things that are not contradictions.

Like, here’s a common Christian contradiction:

The Spirit gives man the ability to believe.

Here’s the problem which contains the evil:  If man must be given the ability to believe, and by that alone have belief unto salvation, and by NOTHING of himself, then obviously he, himself, has infinitely no ability to believe. Which means he cannot believe at all, ever, even if the Spirit gives him the ability. Because infinite inability cannot accommodate ability of any kind, in any measure. Period. Man’s failure is himself, at root…and so all “belief” in the face of his infinite inability is in spite of him. Which means all belief is not of him, or to him, or for him, period.

But here is something else:

If we say that man CAN believe, then we admit that he does not need to be given any such ability by the Spirit, and this has to do with his implicit ability (by the assertion that man can believe once given the ability to believe) to receive the ability.

Here’s what I mean:

To be ABLE to receive the ability to believe is, itself, in fact, the ability to believe. For if A (ability to receive the ability to believe) = B (ability to believe) and B (ability to believe)= C (belief) then A (the ability to receive the ability to believe) = C (belief).

And this being the case, anyone who advocates that man must be given the ability to believe, and via that alone believe, and via that be truly saved, is lying…by their own implicit admission, according to the logic of their own claim. And that being the case, they cannot possibly be preaching the truth of God. And thus, they must be instead preaching the devil. Because he is the father of lies.

So, here is my claim and my advice:

Find your contradiction and you will find your evil. Then…KILL IT.
