In the last several chapters, we proposed assumptions about the world based on Christianity, and used these assumptions to explain everything in the world. Whether you agree or not, at least we gave some explanations for the meaning of life. Without any belief, life is meaningless.
Atheism doesn’t do anything good to you. It can’t provide any hope or meaning for your life. You accepted it for certain reasons, and anytime is a good time to rethink them. You may turn to religions in the world for help. We suggest here that Christianity is your best choice. This is the only religion claiming that Jesus Christ is the son of God. This is the only religion claiming that Jesus Christ died for your sins. This is the only religion claiming that Jesus Christ has been resurrected, so that you also will have eternal life.
To learn more about Christianity, of course the Bible is the most important resource. It is the book written for all human beings. Besides, if you belong to those people who have enough interest to finish reading Science, World, and Faith, you should find Mere Christianity, by C. S. Lewis, also enjoyable. This book brought many things to my faith, and changed my life completely. C. S. Lewis’ writing is clear, adorable, and justifiable. Of course, this present book is definitely not comparable to the timeless masterpiece that is Mere Christianity. I mention it here because in writing this book, I aimed for it to serve as a complement to Mere Christianity, and to fill in the gaps between what Mere Christianity says and what some serious atheists want to know. I tried to collect and arrange things not included in C.S. Lewis’ book, and to avoid repeating things that can be learned from that book. At one time, I believed that anyone who read Mere Christianity would become a Christian. I gave several copies of it to my atheistic friends to introduce them to Christianity. Many of them, however, are still not Christians. It is my hope that many nonbelievers will read this book, and that they will have enough interest to read Mere Christianity, and then they will read the Bible and become Christians.
To learn more about Christianity, it is important to go to church. This is the place for Christians to worship Jesus Christ together. People may learn more correct information about Christianity and Christians there. How to decide whether a church is right or not? If a place has people claiming that Jesus Christ is the son of God, and it uses the Bible, including four books written by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John to describe the teachings, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, that place should be right.
If you spend some time going to church, you will find more truth. You will find more evidence that God does exist and that Christianity is true. They are more important than the evidence mentioned in this book. They include the power to turn people from their sins, the testimonies of those for whom God has answered prayers, and the love of Christians toward other people.
Later, you will find that Christians are not weird people. You will be able to accept that you are a Christian, too. Christianity brings people back to their normal status, instead of changing normal people into fanatics. It helps people leave the bondage of their sins, and allows them to reconcile with God, their creator.
