“30Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” – John 20:30-31 (ESV)
As I study this morning I can’t help thinking about how much I may be doubting Jesus. Am I looking for more overt signs that He is the Christ? Am I waiting to be thoroughly convinced by some action of Jesus to/for me in order to have “life”?
John indicates that there were “many other signs” that Jesus did to demonstrate His deity. He also indicates that he did not write them because they are not be needed as what is written is sufficient and more than enough.
It is up to us to believe. We are intelligent beings and have the ability to discern right from wrong and Godly from ungodly. We are to take what we have been given and make the decision to believe or not believe. There is no need for more “proof”, we have all the proof as recorded in the gospels.
Are you looking for additional signs of the deity of Jesus? Are you waiting for that one point of “proof”? Are you able to simply believe and have the life meant for you?
