Trot him out, that's all the evidence I need.

I'm sorry, are you under the impression that He is a beast of whom I am the master?

I don't trot Him out, He comes when you call to Him. He is there for you to find. He desires a relationship with you.

But, as Jesus said: (Luke 16:31) "He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'"

Even if He were to appear to you tonight, you would convince yourself you were dreaming. There is no more complete evidence than what already is. It isn't a lack of evidence that is bothering you, it is a lack of will.

Open the eyes of your heart and you will see.

Shalom.

That's the impression you've been giving me.

Been there, done that, nobody showed. Got over it. Moved on.

But, as Jesus said: (Luke 16:31) "He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'"

There's your mistake. Luke said, Jesus said, and the guy pretending to be Luke wasn't even Luke! You accept third or fourth hand testimony. Even second hand testimony is inadmissable in our own fallible court system!

Even if He were to appear to you tonight, you would convince yourself you were dreaming.

Nice try, but it never happened before and it ain't happening tonight.

There is no more complete evidence than what already is. It isn't a lack of evidence that is bothering you, it is a lack of will.

In other words, you still have no independently verifiable evidence to present.

Open the eyes of your heart and you will see.

Been there, done that, nothing to see. Got over it. Moved on.
