What is it that makes Jesus still relevant today as He ever was in His time? What is it that made and still makes millions of people surrender their lives in reverence and awe to this Jesus when they encounter Him? Could there be any truth in His claimed divinity? Why do they all claim to have experienced an ‘otherness’ something other than human in their encounter that rendered them most vulnerable and humbled in their heightened awareness of their human frailty and His Divinity? Until this question that demands a verdict can be categorically answered in the negative and these claims positively refuted then Christianity will continue to impact the globe as individual lives are changed for good by a personal encounter with Jesus Christ. He will remain an Icon in History and for seeking humanity, a constant mystery. If He cannot be disproved, the myth will be consistently replaced with His reality ...He actually lives as God, within the lives of His followers today as ever. I remain in Jesus’ Service.

Let me point out that this question was dealt with in Vol. 2 - Issue 1, April 2014. Article entitled: Still a Pig? Page 10 onwards. Here you can read that there are proofs and signs that do follow a born again believer and yes John 3:16 does give the assurance that, “ALL WHO BELIEVE in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life”. Let me hasten to remind you that salvation is by faith not by anything that we have done or will ever do to be saved. It is the miracle working power of God’s grace that saves us as we have faith in Jesus Christ and submit our lives to Him. The life of the true believer is filled with the evidence of this assurance as guilt and shame are removed with the remission of our sins. However, God is not mocked and we are called to live a life of righteousness in trustful obedience of His word. So, if we fall into sin, we are not condemned as we have a provision for our sins that we access by confessing it and repenting. As we receive new grace to go on we get back on course with God and become wiser and stronger. Be encouraged and keep walking in faith and victory over sin as you sin less and are perfected by the Grace of the Holy Spirit working in you.
