"JESUS SAID TO HIS DISCIPLES: "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You have faith in God; have faith also in me." (John 14: 1).
Will having faith in God and Jesus relieve you of your burdens? Pay the mortgage? Bring home your estranged husband? Heal your son of opioid addiction? Most crisis we have in society today has roots in a crisis of faith. When we cease to believe or our belief is very weak, the foundation of our moral and social center become fragmented. Things fall apart and the center cannot hold tightly. Pope Benedict and most of recent popes recognized this phenomenon for many years. Alas, science and technology have not delivered on their promised Paradise. Automation, microwaves, smart phones, smart cars, smart homes have all failed to procure us the peace of mind and soul and body we yearn so desperately for.
Jesus came to bring us a simple message of salvation. Jesus Christ has complete power to save us from these evils. (Acts 4: 12; Romans 1: 16). Do you believe this? YES or NO?
"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10: 9).
The alternative is unthinkable.
