That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched - this we proclaim concerning the word of life. 1 John 1:1
The account of an eyewitness is generally considered to be the best evidence. But over two thousand years have passed since Jesus walked the earth - since He died and rose again. There are many eyewitness accounts to His life and ministry, yet it seems too many people today are quick to discount what they themselves cannot see, hear, and touch.
Documents can be fabricated. Evidence can be manipulated. And entire generations can be deceived.
That's why the church is so important. How else will people believe if they don't see it for themselves? Christians need to live examined lives - lives that can be seen and studied - lives that prove Christ still walks the earth in us.
Lord, help me to live an authentic life that is evidence to Your existence. Help me to walk in the truth today.
