Episode notes
Evidence Points To Trusting Jesus
- The Gospel writers present miracles and evidence to lead people to trust Jesus as the object of faith.
- John explicitly says he recorded signs so readers would believe Jesus is the Christ and have life in his name.
Truck And Gauge Example
- Greg uses a new truck and gas-gauge example to show evidence supports trust in an object, not trust in the evidence itself.
- He checks the gauge to see if the vehicle can do the job, then trusts the truck to get him to the office.
Doctor Choice Illustration
- Amy gives a medical example of choosing between four doctors and trusting the medicine, not your research ability.
- She stresses you trust the cure because you believe it's true, not merely your skill in selecting it.
