"When a minister finished speaking at a medical school, a young cynic came forward to say, "I have just dissected a cadaver completely, but no place did I find a soul. How can you tell people a soul exists?" The minister asked, "When you opened the brain, did you find a thought? When you opened the heart, did you find love? When you dissected the eye, did you discover vision?" The obvious answer was no, and the young doctor got the point.
At first the prayer of Jesus recorded in Matthew 11:25-30 sounds strange. Yet, when considered carefully, it tells us why Christianity is available to every man. Our religion is based on faith, not intellectualism. We can never know God through our minds only. We must see Him with our hearts and souls. Because of this, even those who have weak minds can know and love Christ as well as the very brilliant.
We, too, should thank God because we can know Him through faith rather than through intellectualism. It has been wisely said, "He who has a testimony is never at the mercy of he who has an argument." We can know about Christ with our mind. But, to know Christ requires the leap of faith in our hearts."
What an assurance! It gives peace to the heart. Amen!
