(Acts 18:22–28; John 12:36–47) “Lord, who believed what they heard from us?” (Is.53:1), this is how the prophet Isaiah complains in amazement. It is fitting even now to cry: who now sincerely believes Your word, Lord? Everyone was almost shaken. The language of many is still silent about faith; but the hearts of the Inuds rarely deviate. What is the reason? An interest in disbelief began to be felt; the need for unbelief has developed to cover up the interests of the heart that disagree with faith. Here is the root of evil. It is not the mind that is the enemy of faith, but the corrupted heart. The reason here is only to blame for the fact that it submits to the heart and begins to reason not according to the principles of truth, but according to the desires of the heart. At the same time, strong arguments for the truth seem insignificant to him, and any little thing against it grows like a mountain; and, in general, confusion is introduced into the mental area, blinding the mind. He doesn’t see, and he can’t see, don’t tell him. You might be interested in:
