I have heard and read over and over again that in order to be "saved",as a Christian, you must believe. You must believe in Jesus as the resurrected saviour of the world,and in what the bible teaches.
This is all well and good, but how exactly would you instruct someone to believe whio currently does not? If they've read the bible, studied the scriptures and yet find that they just can't buy it, what then? Is belief a choice? You can say "I believe",but if you really don't then words mean nothing.
Some people say they want to believe or are trying to believe, and yet they just can't honestly say that they do. Are they just screwed then? How do you make yourself believe something you don't belive?
