Following Jesus in Faith

The question we want to look at today is: Can you believe in Jesus even if you have doubts?

To put it another way: Do doubts disqualify you from believing in Jesus?

Some of you say, “I know there was a historic figure named Jesus of Nazareth, but how can I believe he was really God? How can I have a personal relationship with an invisible God whose supposedly rose again, but was beamed up to heaven 2,000 years ago?”

Or maybe you’re a Christian—and you have trusted to Jesus as your Savior and Lord, but you have other doubts:

·      Your relationship is so broken, you doubt He will actually fix it.

·      Your finances have piled up into such a giant mountain of debt, you don’t think He could will move it.

·      Or your emotions are so crazy, you don’t think He’ll ever give you stability and freedom from depression.

You doubt that Jesus can fix your life.

This morning we come to a text that is full of doubt and unbelief.
