Nothing Changes

It has been said that the heavens declare his righteousness and that all the peoples see his glory and brilliance.

If this is true, are we choosing to ignore him?

Then, there is the story of Moses and the burning bush. That when he, Moses, was instructed to tell the Hebrews to follow The God, Moses asked, "Who should I say sent me?" God replie with, "I Am." No other explanation given.

Flash-forward to the new testament. Enter Jesus. The one time that we see any hint of The God is when Jesus goes to the river to be baptized. As Jesus resurfaces, The Holy Spirit descends in the form of a dove and a voice from heaven says, "This is my son, with whom I am well pleased."

Later, when the religious community and the teachers of the law demand a sign from Jesus as proof of legitimacy, Jesus replies with, "No sign, but the sign of Jonah shall be given."

God replies with, "I Am."

Jesus replies with, "No sign."

I'm forced to deduce that what we choose to believe is beside the point.

Will we follow?
