I Can Do with Benjamin Lee

E340: The Fallacy of Trusting the Universe


Listen Later

Summary

In this conversation, Benjamin Lee discusses the contrast between trusting in the universe and trusting in God. He emphasizes that the universe is a created entity and cannot provide guidance, salvation, or answers to life's questions. Instead, he argues that God is the true source of life, truth, and blessings. Benjamin warns against modern idolatry, where people worship the creation rather than the Creator, and encourages listeners to seek a personal relationship with God.
