- Isa 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
Yeah? Right.
Now the skeptic chimes in:
- You said God spoke to me, but I don't hear his voice.
- You said that the Son testified, but I don't get it.
- You said the Holy Spirit makes it make sense, but it's still gibberish.
- And you say that Jesus testified in the flesh, but I wasn't there.
- So how am I supposed to know?
Typically the answer is: You just have to believe, then you will know. I don't buy that answer either! Sometimes the answer is: Look at all the miracles! But the miracles werre not intended to persuade non-believers. Not even Jesus's teaching was intended to do that. [1]
