[00:00:00]I'm willing to entertain the idea. Well, I don't know if I am. Sorry. I need to think about that.

[00:00:05]>> It's not a type of believe somehow in me that I just exist based off the evidence. That is a first step. But ultimately, God wants you to believe that he exists and that you desire a trusting relationship with him based out of love. He's a personal creator who decided to create personable beings. And so when he resurrected from the dead, if I just say, you know, a lot of I had a few different friends who said, "Jesus, he you know, he can come right now, Steuart, you you bring a lightning bolt down and Jesus shows up right now, I'll believe in him." Okay. Yeah, maybe intellectually you'll believe in him.

[00:00:38]But believing that actually he rose from the dead and that he actually showed up and you want a trusting relationship because everything in the gospels in the book of Acts talks about this weird very strange word pistus which is not just faith in the sense of oh I believe now he just resurrected. No, it's it's actually trust.
