  1. Thanks for joining me today for “A Little Walk with God.” I’m your host Richard Agee.

  2. Missouri is known as the Show Me state. It is said her residents don’t believe anything they don’t see for themselves. Do you know anyone like that? Are you one of those? Jesus met a few…in court.

  3. Scripture

    1. Luke 22:67-69

    2. Sanhedrin:  If you are the Anointed One whom God promised us, tell us plainly.

Jesus: If I give you an answer, you won’t believe it.  And if I ask you a question, you won’t answer it.  But this I will say to you: from now on, the Son of Man will take His seat at the right hand of the power of God.

Sanhedrin: So You are the Son of God, then?

Jesus: It’s as you say.

                    1. Devotional

                        1. Have you ever met anyone that no matter what you say and no matter what evidence you give, they just won’t believe you? It’s everywhere with almost everyone these days, I think. I know I’ve been guilty at times.

                        2. Research information

                          1. Internet

                            1. .com – selling something

                            2. .org – raising money for cause

                            3. .edu – professor’s ideology

                            4. .gov – well…

                          2. Written word

                            1. Peer review – maybe

                            2. Junk science

                            3. Fantasy

                            4. Just to sell books and make names

                            1. Found out in elections

                            2. Hard to trust

                            3. Hard to believe<

                        3. Sanhedrin fell into that category

                          1. Jesus evidence was clear

                            1. Prophecy they read and believed

                            2. Jesus’ birth

                            3. Jesus’ childhood

                            4. Jesus’ ministry

                            5. Jesus’ teaching

                            6. Jesus’ miracles

                          2. Still didn’t believe even with evidence in front of them

                          3. Are we as unbelieving as they are with all the evidence in front of us?

                          4. 2,000 years of evidence, still people fail to believe

                        4. What category are you in? Believer or unbeliever?
