WHO DO YOU SAY HE IS? 4

I STILL BELIEVE

1 John 1:
 1  That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
 2  (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
 3  That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

How many people can say this? That they walked and talked and ate with and followed and listened to Jesus... Why shouldn't I believe a man who lived 3 years with Jesus concerning the things Jesus said? Why should I believe a man born 500 years later to tell me truer things about the single most important Person ever born of a woman than this Man's own friend?

So I believe in the Jesus of the Bible over anything anyone else has to say about Him. Just as if I die today, I'd expect you to believe what Fritz Quaye, Edwin Kpodzro, Abigail Aryee-Atta and my other close friends will have to say about me. Sometimes logic cuts it...

I'm still not done.

WHY I BELIEVE IN JESUS

I'm not done with why I believe the Bible, but let me tell you first why I believe in Jesus... This Man who so loves you that He died for you.

First, you celebrate Christmas. The whole world does. Just to say we can't deny that He lived... Oops, I meant He lives.

Now, I'm yet to meet a human being who can convincingly show me Jesus' sins. Just try if you think you want to make history. The only man to be born of a virgin. Over 120 people confess to seeing him rise from the earth right up into heaven. As usual, they were all very very convinced or very very stupid.

But they raised the dead in this Man's name. They healed the sick and then died for Him one by one.

Get this, Jesus predicted His own death. That one is not too hard if you plan your own death. But He predicted His own resurrection too. Beat that! I'm far from done koraa, but time. I'll be back.

BTW, He asked me to tell you He loves you

WHY I BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE

So I thought about this one paa. Why should I believe everything I see in a compilation of 66 books?
Should I really accept that 66 books contain the answer to virtually any relevant question I have in this life?

First of all, that's absurd. We all know it is. But guess what's even more absurd, yet true, this Book has never been wrong.

This book said give and you'll receive. For some strange reason it works. This book predicted the futures of many kingdoms which happened just like it said. This book predicted wars and hunger we see today. It predicted immorality and homosexuality which is not news anymore in 2015.

Yet this is what my intellectual mind refuses to ignore: It was not written by one person. Different people over a span of more than 2 millenia brought this together... telling one story about one Man whom we all have to make a decision about. But I'll get to Him later. They tried the same thing with Ananse stories, but they just don't sync.

Many people have tried to destroy this book, many people have been burnt because of it, others hanged and others shot. Yet some of us would do it all over again. We must be very stupid or very convinced.

But if there's enough wrong to believe in a devil, then anything he takes time to attempt destroying must be something he's afraid of. And seeing as he hasn't succeeded, it would be most absurd on my part not to believe it's words.

If I'm wrong, oh well, but if I'm right, I've believed in God's Word, and the rest is up to you.

I leave you with 2 things:
1. A quote by Sherlock Holmes - When the impossible is eliminated, whatever remains no matter how improbable must be the truth.
And 2. The words of Jesus Himself.
Matthew 24: 35  Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

WHO DO YOU SAY HE IS? 1

WHY I BELIEVE IN GOD

In the paraphrased words of Max Lucado: Better minds have thought about this, and better hands have written on this subject.
But if my opinion really matters then here goes.

Why do I believe in a God I've never seen?

Have you ever seen a corpse? The difference between you and it is this: YOU BREATHE.

So cast your mind and imagination as far back as you dare to whatever you think was the first life-form ever.
I have a question. Who induced their first breath? No dead thing produces life.

The reason people doubt God is because we proudly think we have the right to understand everything. But no!! We don't!

We want to be in charge. We are not. I've seen people predict the future. I've seen visions for myself twice, and both times what I saw happened. There's no mathematics that can explain that.
There's no chemical equation to explain why men can fall in love and can feel hatred enough to murder.

The day you show me a picture of... Or better still draw a thought, is the day I'll show you God.
But if you believe you think, when you haven't seen a thought before, then you can believe in the God whose air you are breathing. Selah.

To be continued...

PROLOGUE - WHO DO YOU DAY HE IS?

So I've kept longer than a few hours. Got busy and my data got finished.

Obviously, I can't tell you why you believe what you believe. I can only speak for myself. And it will take more than one post for me to 'say all'.

When I came to Christ, I was cowardly and pyrophobic (afraid to burn). He was the only solution the Bible prescribed. But somewhere along the line I fell in love with Him. But I'm getting ahead of myself and this is still not my answer, lol.
(Those who were threatening me because of small suspense, relax wai, you have patience for the next episode of Arrow, allow me to flow)

I'll keep them coming as quickly as I organize my thoughts. But for now, I've got to sleep. It was a long day.

WHO DO YOU SAY HE IS? Intro

First of all happy birthday to my big brother... You've come far. Love you roff.

Now to business, lol. I have a question for us all, Christians, Muslims, Atheists, Agnostics, etc. WHY DO YOU BELIEVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE?

In fact, read it like this: WHY HAVE I DECIDED TO BELIEVE ALL THAT I BELIEVE? WHAT IF I'M WRONG? WHAT HAPPENS IF I DIE AND REALISE I MADE A MISTAKE?

I'll be back to address this. I'm far from done. But really, think about it.

True Worship 1

Revelation 3:20
Behold I stand at the door and knock. If any man heads my voice and opens the door I will come in and dine with him and he with Me.

We have all believed at some point that this is Christ reaching out to the lost, I mean unbelievers, but 6 verses up Jesus said: And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write...

I heard a story of a man who was sacked from church because he came straight from the farm and so his appearance was not exactly too good. As he stood outside someone came to stand beside him and asked, "So they've sacked you too?" He turned to answer and realised, this was our Lord before him.

In many churches we are worshipping seriously, but the one we claim to worship is still outside knocking on the door. He's not been invited to His own worship. We were worshipping chords, lights and feelings all along. The message is simple today: LET JESUS BACK INTO HIS CHURCH!
