My quest to answer these probing questions:

(1) To find out why people respond the way they respond to gospel

(doubt, concern, disbelief, ....there are certain degrees and variations depending on the individual and timing)

(2) Why are "not everyone who call to me will be saved" is uttered by Jesus? Are there different categories of believers? How to define them?

(a Christian that doubts salvation or someone that claims that he believes in all Gods...many more)

(3) How would we, as Christians be able to evangelism in a way relevant to people, connect to their belief system? Walking into their world instead of indulging on own mental world.

( we look things through our own eyes, if we could gain the knowledge of looking through different sight, it would be impactful and effective..)

(4) Does the bible cater for every type of underlying philosophy?

( Meaning that there are bible verses or biblical truth [key] that opens the mind of an atheist, agnostic.....many more)

(5) Everyone has its own priority and definition of life. Is it philosophical or revelation, living the way we do?

( we are holding our stand or living the will of God?)

(6) Can a Christian be a philosopher?

( a theologian= people who pursues the knowledge of God ,does not necessary is a believer)

What is your philosophy of life?

Philosophy = /= Purpose

How do we tackle the philosophy of a certain person?

Try to ask any question and look into the perception and the way of thinking of the person.

You will find that there are certain abiding and strong view on certain issues.

They always end up looking at things at certain way.

People are stubborn and unchanging at times.

There is an underlying philosopher in every soul.
