Because I Trust Him

Friend, many are the number of questions put to the believer in Jesus, as to why we believe.

And our answers seem weak to the questioner.

But to us, those answers are everything.

We get told there is no God by the unbelievers.

We get told that evolution is our ancestral past.

We get told the Bible is full of foolishness; unbelievable fairy tales written by uneducated sheep farmers.

But a believer who knows that they have had an encounter with God, has a story to tell.

We call it a testimony, because it always ends with "God did this for me " or something similar.

It's the same old story from times past of "I once was lost but now I'm found."

In many cases we didn't even know we were lost.

In others, we do know we are lost. We're stuck in addictions, in darkness of depression or sickness from our escapades into the evil domain.

Everyone's situation and experience is different and individual yet we still fall into categories of unbelief. Some may have been brought up in the Christian traditions and even attended church but would not consider themselves born again. 

Those of us who have been rescued by faith in Jesus, who has shown us The Light, and The Way, Forgiven all our sins, and set us on the Righteous Path to Everlasting Life with Him; know deep in our soul that He is God.

There is no other explanation for what has happened to us.

Believers call it being "born-again of the Spirit."

Jesus mentions this in John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." 

God's Word speaks to mankind and tells us the Way to go to be reunited with Him; for man has gone astray, and He cannot have fellowship with us in our fallen condition.

He is THE POWER and we cannot come near Him when we are not of the correct current.

But when we are of the correct current; WOW!

Life is different then!
