Or "the whole shootin' match". Or "lock, stock and barrel".<BR/><BR/>When one believes in Jesus, they're not just believing in a set of two, or five, or seven propositions. They're believing in *Him*. They're not believing in things *about* Him, they're believing in *Him*.<BR/><BR/>The "propositions" and the "things about Him" come *with* Him, and won't be denied by the believer. But they aren't Him, and it's Him we believe in.<BR/><BR/>Isn't that why we "preach Christ and Him crucified"?<BR/><BR/>And when we believe in Him, our lives are changed radically, and then we can be "witnesses" to Him. And more people believe in Him.<BR/><BR/>I love this Personalization of The Gospel.<BR/><BR/>Profound, but not complicated.Terry Rayburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00888533194435826837noreply@blogger.com
