You know, the first disciples, they didn't start with a confession. What did they start with? They started with a question, and then they started with one day. One afternoon, one evening spent with Jesus. They stayed. They listened. They watched. And somewhere along the way, their faith began to take shape. And maybe that's where we need to begin today, with that first step of following Jesus. And then we take a next step. We keep showing up. We keep listening. We keep following even if we don't know the answer to every question. Jesus didn't say come and see because belief didn't matter. You see, belief did matter and it would matter very, very quickly in these guys' lives. Those same disciples who came and spent that day with Jesus, they would actually end up staking all on the fact that he was who he claimed to be. They followed him in life. He died on a cross. They knew it. They saw him after he was resurrected. And then because of the fact that his life had changed their lives, they went out and they changed the world. Belief matters. Truth matters. Conviction matters. It absolutely does. But you don't have it all answered today. You need to be set on who Jesus is. Son of God, lived for you, died in your place, risen and coming again.
