The Most Fundamental Decision We All Face Over The Course Of Our Lives Is What We Will Recognize As The Ultimate Reality, The Uncaused Source And Cause Of Our Existence. Everything Else In Our Worldview Depends On That Initial Decision. The Bible Speaks Of This Foundational Choice In Terms Of Who Or What We Worship. We Must All Answer The Challenge Joshua Issued To The Israelites As They Were Poised To Enter The Promised Land: "choose This Day Whom You Will Serve" (josh. 24:15).
