“Why is there unbelief?” (John 12:37-43) That is a question that puzzles us. If we know that all who do not believe in Jesus will suffer eternally, why would anyone not believe? It would be one thing if someone had not yet heard of Jesus Christ, but why would anyone reject the Savior and all the blessings He brings? After Jesus’ last public statement in Jerusalem, John gives us a picture of why some do not believe. Some are afraid. Some value their reputation more than salvation. And in all instances, their continued unbelief is a sign of judgment from God. Jesus calls upon us to believe. Now is the time to come to Jesus – without delay!
