I have started a series of blogs in my primary blog site in Yahoo 360 (http://www.alvinvillaflores.co.cc or http://360.yahoo.com/alvinvillaflores_hubport). And a big question popped up when I started that series: Do I have to show all of the credentials for the Messiah or not? I felt compelled to publish it based on what I've read in a Christian apologetics book. I intend to share my convictions why this faith that I believed in is the most logical thing compared to others…
And maybe some of you here haven't opened that site yet. I encourage you to please do. It's not that I'm selling religion or what-have-you. But I'm sharing my faith in the Messiah by showing you that believing in Him is the most logical thing to do. Compared to other beliefs including atheism, this is the most sensible reason to believe. I am not saying that I have completely proven without a shadow of doubt
considering all and every case about this belief in the Messiah, I have to frankly admit that. But then, all belief systems could not also claim otherwise. However weighing the cases, I have reason to believe that this is the most believable. So please do visit my primary blog site by clicking on any of those links above.
Anyway, I'm not writing this entry to reiterate the reasons why I made that blog series. I'm just here to explain why I am not showing it all, choosing to limit the number only at around 10 to 20 credentials. After all, it would strengthen one's faith more if I would show more than 20, possibly making that number to over 200 credentials. And my reason is? Well, try to look at that number. It would take that many blogs to show it all, along with explanations on some of the most difficult to interpret. It would be impractical then to show it all.
However, what if I'm going to show just enough to convince (I hope!) anyone reading, especially those who have doubts about the Messiah, showing the most obvious to convince. It would be practical to do so. That is the reason why I will not have to show it all. And of course, you are free to search these credentials on the Internet by yourself. It's in there that I've found these researches anyway. That also includes the free Bible softwares that I've downloaded, and also the free modules for those softwares, that I've come to do my research. What I just did is to make it convenient for anyone to understand.
