Dealing with Doubts - Jesus, You, and Experiential Evidence, Part 2

Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Weekend Podcast

Have you ever had an experience that changed your opinion or attitude on something? I mean, you thought you knew all the facts—until you went through a situation that completely changed your mind. In this program, guest teacher John Dickerson will do that by sharing two powerful testimonies that’ll touch your heart.

Main Points

Three basic evidence categories to know that Jesus' radical claims are true:

1. ANCIENT evidence – historical writers (Josephus, Suetonius, Tacitus, etc.)
2. EXTERNAL evidence – an objective human record of Christ’s impact on humanity.
3. INTERNAL evidence – this is evidence that can only be known through experience.

The power of “currents”

• In life we get carried along by different currents: Popularity, achievement, material possessions, relationships
• These currents while alluring and momentarily satisfying, are actually taking us into anxiety and we can’t get out.
• You’ll never know for sure if the ‘current’ of Jesus will carry you to fulfillment unless you get into it.

The “current” available to everyone: John 3:16

• This “current” is the only one that brings salvation to anyone who believes.
• Jeremiah 29:13
• Matthew 11:28
• The fulfillment of Jesus is found in the space between religion and relationship.
