I Jn 5:13
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.
(NAU)
Believing does not come by trying. If a person were to make a statement of something that happened this day I should not tell him that I would try to believe him. If I believed in the truthfulness of the man who told the incident to me, and who said he saw it, I should accept the statement at once. If I did not think him a true man I should, of course, disbelieve him; but there would be no trying in the matter. Now, when God declares there is salvation in Christ Jesus I must either believe Him at once or make Him a liar.

My brother sent me this in an e-mail and I just wanted to share it.
