It's become fashionable today to talk about seeking God. Politicians, writers, businessmen - it seems everyone is talking about spiritual issues and spiritual things. Television shows explore the topic and books on spiritual issues fill the bestseller lists. It appears that everyone is interested in looking for God - that is until someone actually claims to have found Him. In our culture today it is considered arrogant for anyone to claim that they have found the truth. And why not? After all, how can any one person say they've found "THE TRUTH?" This is actually a good question. If I were to say I've found the absolute truth only on my authority then I really have no right to make this claim. There are a lot of people smarter than me, there are a lot of questions I will never answer, places I will never see, etc. On my own I could never possibly discover absolute truth. How could I ever be sure that the "truth" I've found won't be overturned by something new I discover later?
