Why I Believe in Jesus Christ

We were taught in Physics that mass is a constant.

That means original mass could not have come into existence from nothing and by nothing. Mass could only have come into existence from and by the agency of another dimension.

The very existence of the dimension of time and space in which mass exists requires that another dimension acted as agent - because it could not have begun by means of itself.

Belonging to a different dimension outside the dimension of time and space where mass exists, by very definition, means that the actor in that other dimension needed no beginning nor end - needed no creator.

What or Who was the actor in that other dimension? The implication is necessarily theistic or spiritual.

So which god or spirit was it? Examining all of the philosophies and religions of the world reveals only one that offers an explanation for the creation of the dimension of time and space through the agency of a dimension outside of itself.

Only one describes the beginning of life, a habitable earth, the cosmos, and original matter with detail and in an order which doesn't contradict observable principles of physics.

Only one possesses a collection of documents written by numerous individuals who didn't all know each other, over a long period of time, in different locations, all confirming the other through observable and falsifiable prophecies and historical fulfilment.

It's the faith to which the oldest written documents in the world happen to belong.

It's the faith from which the highest good in society happens to have sprung.

It's the faith which best defines and models true love and working ethics in society.

There is no other philosophy which produces similar peace, joy and hope for the future.

It's the only faith where the claims of its founder were verified through the eye-witnessed flesh-and-blood resurrection of its founder from the dead.

It's the only faith where miracles experienced by multitudes in the name of its founder continue as evidential exhibits.

It's the only faith where victory is observably demonstrated over evil spirits (demons) which are also impacting this world from another parallel dimension.

It's the only faith which offers the promise of future victory over death, and has the physically demonstrated resurrection of its founder from the dead to back up that promise.

It's the only faith where all of those things were prophesied, fulfilled, witnessed, documented and experienced in an observable and falsifiable way.

Above all, it's the faith about Whose founder we are taught, and to Whom we are drawn, by the Father in heaven.

It's the one faith wherein prayers are answered.

It's the one philosophy, religion, or faith where all of the above come together and its followers actually really experience the One in Whom they believe.

And that one faith is the faith of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

That's why I believe there is a God; and that's why I believe in the Gospel of our only Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

And all who believe in Him have eternal life.

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16)

"If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved" (Romans 10).
