What's your gut reaction to this?
I'll be back to check, I'm going to watch my show.
As someone who has tried on and off for the last twenty five years to NOT reject Christ, I have come to the conclusion, it's more 'I can't'. I don't think it's possible to conjure up the 'will power' to believe in someone who remains elusive and who you don't understand. So, it seems to boil down to people rejecting the 'idea' of Christ, rather than Him as a real person.
