We can’t prove that Jesus died on the cross for our sins using scientific evidence. But we have incredible proof that it happened.
For example, we have very specific Old Testament prophecies predicting important facts and tiny details about Christ's life.
We have supernatural predictions of His crucifixion given thousands of years before it happened. See Precious Predictions and Jesus in the Old Testament.
If we have such obvious proof, why do so many people deny the evidence, deny God, and claim that the world came about by chance? Why is the way to salvation a narrow path that few find (Matthew 7:13-14)?
Scripture says it’s because people deliberately “forget” that God created this world (2 Peter 3:5).
“What may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.” Romans 1:19-20
When men and women reject the obvious proofs of God, Satan “blinds their minds” (2 Corinthian 4:4).
Let’s pray that our unbelieving friends and family will quit listening to Satan and open their eyes to the truth all around them.
