Quest for Knowledge Conclusion (Part XIV)

by Gwendolyn

Things are easier said than done though. Man, after all, does not believe in simple things. There is something fishy in simple things. It prompts man to ask ‘what’s the catch?’ Man’s complex mind and insatiable hunger for knowledge do not prepare him to accept the simplicity of attaining salvation.

Faith is not an acceptable solution. Man has not attain all those fantastic scientific inventions and technological advancements to end up justifying so simple a term as faith. No. It doesn’t happen that way.

Sin is a complex probable that requires complex solution. He has issues on faith. How to get man out of his OWN way is probably the biggest challenge that man needs to conquer. It is the puzzle that defies human logic. So man is back to square one and the quest continues….
