What is faith? Belief is not the determination of a certain definitive answer, no matter whether the method of determination is affirmative or negative. In the play, whether it is people who follow the Messiah or question the Messiah, they already have or want a standard answer, and the Messiah has broken their delusions time and time again, trying to lead them to faith. The real way comes up.
The bystanders of the majority of people live in between. They are a bit believer and a bit unbelief, always asking for a miracle, a proof that the Messiah is 100% proof that the Messiah is indeed the Messiah, or conversely, a proof that he is a liar The 100% real hammer. However, if the Messiah really proves that he is a 100% Messiah, how much is your faith worth? The precious thing about faith is that even if you only face the 1% possibility, you still choose to believe. Moreover, physical miracles are never 100%. Even if he walks on the water, some people will always question that he relies on magic or modern science of magic, so everyone asks for more miracles, which can only be achieved with evidence. 99%, never reach 100%, only faith can complete the final critical leap.
Those who follow the Messiah always want the Messiah to give them answers, such as where to go and what to do. They want a harbor where they can park with peace of mind, and an absolutely correct owner they can rely on. However, the more eagerly they asked to be ordered, the more silent the Messiah, even asking them to give instructions themselves. The Messiah pointed out more than once that people and Messiah are equal before God. Messiah only conveys the message of God, but people can hear God's voice. Therefore, in the state of faith, we still have to make our own choices. We will still make mistakes, sin, or doubt ourselves, instead of being right forever. The difference between faith and non-belief is that people who believe can constantly surpass themselves in doubt, instead of sinking in self-confidence.
Those who deny the Messiah think that they already have a ready answer, such as science and the country, and try to use these answers to dispel the Messiah who is outside the answer. But can these answers really support life? We can see that those answers did not improve their messy lives. On the contrary, the problems in their lives came from their stubborn persistence to the answers. On the contrary, a dialogue with the Messiah allows them to begin to face their own life problems and try to grasp it.
The message brought by Messiah is that the answer does not exist. No one gives you ready-made answers. All those who try to use ready-made answers to lay the foundation for their lives will eventually find that this is just repression and aggravated the turbulence of life. Therefore, he has repeatedly revealed the inconsistency of the interlocutor's life itself, and refused to fill this inconsistency by himself.
But at the same time, the Messiah brought the gospel: God exists, and our lives still have universality, instead of living a life out of chance. What is the evidence for the existence of God? That is, we can still achieve happiness in an uncomfortable life, and still strive to pursue happiness. This is different from the agnostic, who presupposes a truth that can never be reached, and also presupposes that we can get closer and closer to this static truth. But in the narrative of Messiah, the truth is always retrospective and planning. As time evolves, the retrospection of the past and planning for the future will also change. This truth is historical. Therefore, don't give up the struggle with life. Although this struggle will never end, in the struggle we will gain the full meaning of life, and God guarantees the acquisition of this meaning. People of faith firmly believe that God will not allow us to come into this world for no reason. This is both grace and responsibility. It allows people to face nothingness. On the one hand, nihility is the finiteness of life as a whole, on the other hand, it is the inconsistency of every detail in life. The way to overcome nihility is not to deny nihility, but to dance with nihility. In this brave dance, faith is Got self-certification.
