Anne Rice’s Statement Of Faith - Washington Post

Posted on 1st April 2008 by LaVrai

I came across this clipping on ChristDot and it’s only a couple of weeks old. It’s a guest article written by horror/vampire author Anne Rice concerning why she believes in what she believes. It is a very simple, yet profound statement — and I relate to much of what she says. Below is an excerpt and follow the link to read the rest…

Look: I believe in Him. It’s that simple and that complex. I believe in Jesus Christ, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, the God Man who came to earth, born as a tiny baby and then lived over thirty years in our midst. I believe in what we celebrate this week: the scandal of the cross and the miracle of the Resurrection. My belief is total. And I know that I cannot convince anyone of it by reason, anymore than an atheist can convince me, by reason, that there is no God.

…Right now as I write this, our nation seems to be in some sort of religious delirium. Anti-God books dominate the bestseller lists; people claim to deconstruct the Son of Man with facile historical treatments of what we know and don’t know about Jesus Christ who lived in First Century Judea. Candidates for public office have to declare their faith on television. Christians quarrel with one another publicly about the message of Christ.

Video: The Rev. John MacArthur On All-Inclusive 'Gospel'

Apparently, the Holy Bible is wrong. Members of the Body of Christ don't even need to know the LORD's name. They don't need to know that Jesus Christ is the only means of Salvation. They can just live a good life and meet Jesus later, when they die and go to heaven.

Romans 10:8-14 - But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame." For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved." How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
