Sermon
Why Unbelief?

Summary
John 12:37–42 explains three reasons for persistent unbelief in Jesus: God's judicial hardening of hearts already resistant to Him, failure to recognize Jesus as both suffering servant and glorious King, and love of human praise over God's glory. Believers are called to public faith and prayer-driven evangelism.
Highlights
Unbelief in Jesus is not an evidence problem, it's a heart problem.
If Jesus never offends you, there's a good chance that the picture that you have of Jesus is not Jesus.
Stop living for the golf claps of man over the thunderous applause of heaven.
