Christianity’s Only Evidence: Christ Proves Himself Alive
I only have one reason for being a Christian: Christ has proven to me that He is alive. That alone is enough. I was a wicked and adulterous generation, and Jesus gave me a sign: He acted. THAT was the sign of Jonah to me -- the Guy who was dead is alive. IS alive. I do not need a Bible without error or contradictions, stories that are historically true, pastors who are not nuts, collaboration by science, or for everything to go right for me. There is only one thing that matters: Christ is alive, and this I KNOW.
The scribes and Pharisees played the wrong game. "If He is the Messiah, then..." He does not have to anything. Maybe it would be logical, maybe it would be desirable, but this is His world, and it is FOR Him and BY Him. We kowtow to Him, not He to us. Christ is not trying to convince us of any argument at all. His reality is self-evident. It stands alone as reason enough. He verifies it with signs, wonders, and miracles. And it is apparent in the reports of near death experiences that if He is not our barbeque before God, we are His.
Neil Tyson said that God is the gap in our scientific knowledge, that we need a god to explain things beyond our understanding. What science explains responsive miracles? We pray, and at the exact moment Jesus is evoked, an eye grows in a dry socket, leprosy disappears, mangled bones arrange whole. What science is doing that? As long as It is answering to the name Jesus, I am sticking with that living Gap.
There are tens of thousands of books, articles, and videos of why people reject God, Jesus, religion, the Bible, and all other religious notions. Sorry, people, it is an imperfect world, and there is a whole bunch of freakin' idiots in it. Christ is not the way you think or expect He should be. But He is. He is Lord, high and lifted up. He alone is worthy. Maybe that is your mistake, as it was and is mine: we think that WE are worthy. Slap yourself and knock some sense into yourself: WE ARE DEALING WITH ALMIGHTY GOD, SOVEREIGN OF THE UNIVERSES, THE CREATOR OF US, WHO HAS ALL POWER OVER US. And you are flipping HIM off? We put NOTHING on Him. Nothing but ourselves on our faces on the ground before Him. For the sign of Jonah -- He who was dead is ALIVE.
Listen to the Pharisaical arguments against Christianity in these and other videos which completely miss the point that the only evidence ever offered is Christ's personal power and majesty. Christianity's Fatal Error
