Would Only an Idiot Believe in Jesus Christ?

Seven reasons for putting faith in Jesus Christ
(Without quoting the Bible)

Even if none of these reasons convinces you, please, try to understand the logic of faith, and show a little patience with us idiots.

1. Eyewitnesses left written accounts about Jesus, about his birth, teaching, miracles, death, resurrection and appearances.
Every other prophet, teacher or master only told about his private experiences or about visions he had seen.

2. Jesus made himself out to be God in human flesh who came to seek us and to bring us to himself.
Every other prophet, teacher or master pointed humans to an invisible god or to a philosophy.

3. Those who invoke the Name of Jesus Christ prevail over evil spirits and over their own evil desires.
Every other prophet, teacher or master can only condemn or warn against certain behaviours.

4. Those who maintain their faith in Jesus Christ experience more love, joy, peace and self-control than they did before.
Every other prophet, teacher or master can recommend these qualities, but he cannot grant them to others.

5. Ancient biblical writings foretold the coming of a divine King who would perform verifiable miracles and would conquer death. Only Jesus has done so.
Every other prophet, teacher or master speculated about ideas, then he died.
 
6. Some want to receive all that Jesus offers: to be forgiven everything, to have the presence of God in their life, and to enjoy hope of eternal life, even if they cannot logically defend their faith.
No other prophet, teacher or master offers such.

7. Those who pray to God in the Name of Jesus Christ often see their prayers answered in a convincing manner.
No other prophet, teacher or master answers prayers.

Conclusion

Those who have not experienced the reality of Jesus Christ remain sceptical. Some take pleasure in ridiculing those who have faith in Jesus Christ, or seek to destroy them, as Jesus warned they would do.

If you wish to explore faith in Jesus Christ, then procure and read the Gospels that are in the New Testament, the final part of the Holy Bible, in any language. Jesus may reveal himself to you, as he has done for millions of others.
