Is Man Dead or Alive?

If man has not changed in the time frame of recorded history why can we hope he will change in our lifetime? This approach is a failure. The existence of the universe and the banishment of man are real proof of true Christianity's position that God created man and the universe for His own pleasure. This is an answer man can live with. Man is dead according to modern man's humanistic, naturalistic reasoning. All man-made systems fail the test because they are wrong and man is without excuse. According to the Biblical position man is very much alive and he finds very adequate answers in the Bible and his personal experience of interaction with God in Christ. Christianity is not irrational. It deals with the whole man and insists that man is not autonomous and must bow before God through Jesus Christ.
