Some promote the idea that God has given us two books of comparable value—the Bible and the “book” of nature. But they are not equal. It is the Scriptures—not nature—that unerringly point to God and to the answers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Will we get caught up in the materialistic culture around us so that our salt influence in the world will become useless and the light that we should be to the world is snuffed out? That is more of a threat than atheism.
