Stages of Belief

There are four (4) stages of belief:

1. See it as impossible to believe. Perhaps a fairy tale?
2. Investigate the facts but still unconvinced. Maybe want to believe but just can't.
3. Encounter Jesus personally on this issue and He begins to provide the belief.
4. Commit myself to Jesus and to serving Him, then begin to fully understand and live the reality of what I now believe.
