Do You Believe?

This is making rounds on Facebook:

Until the Good Lord calls Me away from this world to come home, I want to make it clear that I believe in Jesus Christ as the True Lord and Savior. Despite the fact that I am human, and I fail sometimes. (a lot)! I believe that Jesus is the Son of God, sacrificed on the cross, and died for our sins. He loves us all dearly (far more than we deserve) and forgives our sins if we are in repentance. HIs Word says "who so ever believeth in Me , should not perish but have ever lasting life.
This is the best challenge I have seen on Facebook, so if the Holy Spirit moves you and you’re not ashamed, just copy and make this your status update.
Can I get an Amen for being a believer in The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?

I also believe that. You can, too, if you believe Genesis 1:1, John 1:1, and the rest of the Bible, were written that we might believe, just as John ended his gospel:

But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. (John 20:31 KJV)

Paul wrote that same message in a number of letters, but it was Luke who put them down as Paul gave a personal witness to a ruler:

Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come: That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad. But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness. For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner. King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest. Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian. And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds. (Acts 26:22-29 KJV)

Take time to read both Chapter 25 and 26 to see where Paul was and under what circumstances he gave his witness to his belief in Jesus Christ. If you don’t mind, rather than copy the above challenge, would you leave a Comment here that is your testimony regarding belief – or a lack of belief – in Jesus Christ as the Bible describes Him:

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. (John 3:16-19 KJV)
