Is faith without sight really plausible?

March 14, 2013

Then (Jesus) said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

John 20:27-29

In the 1700s, a man named David Hume pioneered the idea of empiricism. This idea essentially says that everything we need to know about the universe can be observed. Empiricism has become a kind of religion among many in the scientific community today. So firm do many hold it that they say nothing is really certain until we actually observe it.

But here’s the problem with that: Truth exists apart from observation. The North Pole existed 500 years ago regardless of the fact that no one had been there. Ultraviolet light was around well before we had the technology to identify it. And distant galaxies spun long before the telescope was invented.

Infinite realities exist today that are outside the reach of our observation. We know this to be true. Yet all too often, Christians are labeled as crazy for making assertions about the spiritual world, God, and heaven.

Faith is not just closing your eyes and imagining things that down deep in your heart you don’t really think are true. Faith is the evidence of the things not yet revealed. So hold tightly to the hope that one day, your faith will be sight as you stand before Christ in eternity. What a glorious day!

STAY STRONG IN YOUR FAITH, KNOWING THAT ONE DAY, THAT WHICH YOU CAN’T SEE TODAY WILL BE REVEALED IN POWER AND GLORY!

Get the best from 2012 to be your best in 2013


Dear Friend,

While many pastors shy away from addressing controversial issues, I sincerely believe you need to hear straight, “bulls-eye” biblical teaching on many of today’s hot topics. Not only to grow in your faith as a believer, but to give winsome, compassionate answers to the hard questions our culture is asking.

That’s why I want to send you a special new resource today – my CD series called The Best of 2012.

This series contains 10 of my most popular and compelling messages from 2012, and it’s a resource that’s sure to help you in 2013 because it includes messages such as, “Are All Religions the Same?”, “Lessons on Leadership,” and “What Is a Christian?”

The Best of 2012 is my gift to thank you for your donation to help PowerPoint continue to proclaim God’s Word and truth ’til the whole world hears. So please request your copy when you give today.

Thank you!

Jack Graham
