Unbelief

Philosopher Gary Habermas (Monday's post) makes another very good point at the end of his presentation on the resurrection of Christ.

Someone asked, if the evidence for the reliability of the Bible is so good then why do some people still not believe?

The answer is:  they may see that the evidence is good but do not want to believe.   As our pastor says, God created people to be free moral agents.  They are not coerced to choose faith.

We want to let people know the evidence that faith in God is rational, but they may still choose unbelief - even after they do know.  They have that freedom.
