Preach it...but don't try to prove it!

Preach it...but don't try to prove it! Our responsibility as Christians is to believe in the One God sent (Jn 6:29) & then live a life that reflects the love of Jesus in our daily living (2 Tim 2:15). Many people want Christians to "prove" why they believe, but the burden of proof isn't on the believer-it's on God. God proved everything when He raised Jesus from the dead (Acts 2:24)! A person who chooses not to believe doesn't have the discernment of the Holy Spirit & can't understand the things of God (1 Cor 2:14, 15). The operative phrase is "chooses not to believe" for if they chose to believe their heart would be open to understanding, but because it's not, you're wasting time (Mt 7:6). Every person is given the freedom to exercise their prerogative to believe or not to believe-the burden of proof isn't on the Christian because God's already proved it.
