Jesus never appeared to me on TV or as a figure in the sky but I gave my life to Him. His Way is working just great. He IS interested
"A couple of thousands years ago, he showed up briefly, and now all these generations got nothing but blind faith in some historical story?"
He showed up long enough for me.
There are still doubting Thomas's today. This helps our faith. Jesus said that he would never leave us and appeared many times after His death. So, he has also appeared throughout history to many saints. What is wrong with Him sending an ambassador, His own Mother? Do you think he could not do it? Would not allow it?
Have you ever studied it for yourself?
