Thomas' great confession teaches that belief is more than simply giving mental assent to Jesus, it's committing everything you have to Him.

Jesus said that true believers will abide in His Word and the truth will set you free. What does that mean? What is truth? How do we find truth? How do we abide in His Word? On what authority does Jesus make these claims? 

Jesus proclaims his deity by declaring that He has abilities and prerogatives that only belong to God. Then He offers some witnesses to corroborate His claims.

In the first few verses of the Gospel of John, the author makes sure that the reader knows who Jesus is and why He came to earth.

There are many people who believe that Jesus existed and that he was a good man or a good teacher. However, Jesus didn't leave the door open to believe that. Jesus' claims about himself force us all into an all-or-nothing choice.
