I know that the Bible is the last word on this (not me) but I just thought I would throw that out there.

No, the Holy Spirit is the One who brings doubters to belief (John 14:16-17, 16:7-11; 1 Cor. 3:7). He may use our words, but God's truth remains regardless of our eloquence or lack thereof (1 Cor. 1:17-18; Isaiah 55:10-11). We have nothing to fear from debaters, because we do not stand on our own to argue, but rather with God's Word and Spirit backing us up.Shannonnoreply@blogger.com
