“There Is No Question”
June 14, 2021
When someone says, “There is no question,” we have to assume “there is a question.” Facts, when clear, speak for themselves. Truth needs to be neither screamed or pounded into the spotlight.
People questioned Jesus about his authenticity through out his life. They ignored miracles, prophecy, and his daily behavior of caring for the ignored, the people not of his circle.
What we know is that people often believe what they wish to believe, what fits in with their behavior at the time.
Had his naysayers accepted him as their Messiah, they would have needed to care for their parents, widows, orphans, and not cheat poor people. They would have had to give up their positions of leadership based on pride and showmanship. Truth would have changed their lives. They weren’t ready.
