Assumptions:
1. There is a God
2. God cannot Lie
3. The Bible is God's Word
If you cannot accept any of the above assumptions stop here.
It follows:
1. Jesus is God
2. Jesus is the only way to God
3. Those who reject Jesus end up in the Lake of Fire
Observation:
Public Education does not teach the above Assumptions nor does it encourage students to escape Hell
Hence it follows:
1. Public Education does not believe the above Assumptions
2. 1) implies that Public Education encourages Unbelief
3. 2) implies Public Education is a tool of Satan
4. 3) implies Public Education is the enemy of Christ
5. 4) implies Christians should stand against Public Education
- Bible is True (assumption)
- Bible says Jesus is the Incarnate Word
- Bible says you must Believe on Jesus to be Saved
- To Believe on Jesus is to Believe the Word ( Bible )
- hence, a person who does not believe the Word is not Saved
Unlike Mathematics which is founded on Absolute Truth, Logic is independent and requires only Assumptions and Rules. Logic is used in Mathematics as a tool.
The purpose of this article is not teach Logic. Rather it is to reveal the unreliability of Logic when applied to wrong Assumptions.
Let's use a real-world example to illustrate the point:
Assumptions:
1. murder is evil
2. choice is good
Facts:
a. I choose to abort my unborn child
Logic:
- Since I choose to abort, and choice is good, then abortion cannot be murder
Conclusion:
★ abortion is good
What is wrong with this Logic?
You got it! Choice is not necessarily good.
When is it not good? When it violates the Absolute Law of God.
Let's go through the exercise again with different Assumptions.
Assumption:
1. God's Law is good
2. choice may be either good or evil
Facts:
a. I choose to abort my unborn child.
b. Murder is identified as evil in assumption 1.
Logic:
- since God's Law is good and God's Law says murder is evil
Conclusions:
★ my choice of abortion is evil
So, we see clearly any argument in Logic is totally dependent on the Assumptions.
