Reasons to Believe

So many ways to disbelieve - all way beyond doubt. Against that Peter speaks boldly, reminding the people then and there and us today that Jesus died, rose from the dead, and is at work in people's lives. "This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (v. 11-12). I do sometimes doubt. Many people choose their own reasons not to believe. But the fundamental reality of Jesus' love, God's grace, and the blessings of fellowship with the redeemed centers my heart and calms my soul. This I believe without a doubt.
