Wanna Test?

Are you a person who wants to test if Jesus can perform a miracle by healing an AIDs or a Polio affected person so that you can confirm Jesus to be God?

Here's what Jesus says:

..., “When it is evening you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red’; and in the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times. A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” ...

- Matthew 16:2-4 NKJV

As long as you keep testing Jesus, I am sorry, you will not see a miracle, at least to confirm Jesus as God. His miracles are not for his enemies but for those who submit to Him. But still He left us a miracle so that we can believe in Him.

What is the sign of Jonah?
If you look at the above statement in Chapter 12 we see the answer as follows:

..., “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. ..."

- Matthew 12:39-40

YES! You guessed it right! Jesus' death on the cross and His resurrection on the third day is the sign for us to believe in Jesus. No man in the world wanted, nor had planned for, nor went for his own death. But Jesus actually came to die for our sins. He knew about His death and revealed it thrice (details here).

What's the proof of Jesus' Resurrection?
Well, the Bible claims it so clearly. But I want to give you the proof from the one who lived with us and is known for proving with evidences and truth.
Here I want to quote Sir Lionel Luckhoo (of The Guinness Book of World Records fame for his unprecedented 245 consecutive defense murder trial acquittals)

“I have spent more than 42 years as a defense trial lawyer appearing in many parts of the world and am still in active practice. I have been fortunate to secure a number of successes in jury trials and I say unequivocally the evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is so overwhelming that it compels acceptance by proof which leaves absolutely no room for doubt.”

- Taken from Why should I believe in Christ’s resurrection?

Let's not harden our hearts to what is clear to our eyes and relevant to our lives.
Gospel of Jesus Christ has truth and relevance for all of our lives. We are all sinners and we have to accept it.

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

- 1 John 1:9 NKJV

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

- John 3:16 NKJV
