Believing

19 December 2011

Galatians 3:6 Thus Abraham "believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness."

Do you believe? Do you believe that Jesus was crucified, died, was buried and rose again? This is vital as Christian that we believe this. Last night there was a programme on TV that dealt with a spear that was believed to be the spear that pierced the side of Jesus as He hung on the cross. What made it interesting was the heads of the three nails that was found in the centre piece of the addition to the spear. These nails were of similar iron to the nails of the time of Jesus!

Now we may speculate about many things, but as time goes on more is proved correct about Scripture and nothing is proved to be incorrect. So we then need to conclude that the history of the Scripture is more accurate that what many first believed. So as with all things we start to be believe more. You see the cross is real, the spear is real, the shroud cannot be disproved, the place of Golgotha is real, how much more do we need to believe? We have facts, we have speculation and we have imagination, but at the end of it all do we have faith in what we believe?

As with Abraham we cannot see all things but we have faith that in all things we will one day be part of heavenly community worshipping and praising God. Do you believe that?

Be encouraged to believe that whom you have faith in.

David

Point to ponder: Jesus was born, He died, He rose and He is coming again- soon.
