People who are only investigating True Christianity™ often ask us, “Should Christians think for themselves?” The Biblically correct answer is that we should not.
The Old and New Testaments both say that we should trust in the Lord with all our hearts rather than trying to figure things out for ourselves. In the second Genesis creation account (and both Genesis creation accounts are literally true), God’s first commandment to man was the following:
Gen. 2:16-17: And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
We all remember what happened when he violated that commandment.
That commandment was reinforced in a different form later in the Old Testament:
Proverbs 3:5-7: Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
Lest any phony-baloney liberal “Christian” should tell you that that commandment was “nailed to the Cross,” it was repeated in the New Testament:
Colossians 2:8: Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
By the way, this is the only time the word “philosophy” occurs in the entire King James Bible. Also, philosophy is the invention of the ancient Greeks, who also gave the world the cult of homosexuality, so that tells us how much we can trust it.
Moreover, Jesus taught us that we will know them by their fruits (Matt. 7:16). If the fruits of too much thinking include atheism, the tree itself must not be one intended for Christians.
In addition, Jesus hates evidence and loves blind faith:
John 20:29: Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.
Finally, as Saved® Christians, we have no need to think for ourselves, since we have Christ to do our thinking for us:
I Corinthians 2:16: For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
Praise His holy name!

You've been resisting Christ's Love for as long as I can remember, can't you see how futile that is? Get with the program, darling! You know the drill...read the KJV 1611 from cover to cover (paying extra special attention to the verses referencing a woman's duties), tithe and repent. Do this and you will be instantly transported to the high ground of moral superiority, and a place in Heaven will be secured for you. You will be beyond all reproach!
