Faith tells the story of Love; believe it or not

Morning: Psalms 75, 76; Judges 5:19-31; Acts 2:22-36

Denial doesn’t want to believe.  Denialism denies truth – climate change, the Holocaust – creating another ‘truth’.  The chief priests pay the soldiers to say Jesus’ resurrection is a hoax – that’s denialism.  But the disciples see Jesus, who tells them to spread his Way of Love.  Faith trusts experience – love, relationship, and story.  Believers are not in denial any more than unbelievers.  Faith just responds to a different kind of truth.  No-one can prove that love, relationship, or story, are untrue; Faith cannot prove they are.  Faith can only tell about the experience of Love.  You believe that or you don’t.
