Fyodor DostoyevskyIt is not as a child that I believe and confess Jesus Christ. My hosanna is born of a furnace of doubt.
About This Quote
To be a Christian is to believe that Jesus Christ is the one and only way to God. Many people who think that they are Christians, may not actually be Christians. They may be members of a church, but not really Christians. They may even be good people, but they do not yet know Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
The phrase “born of a furnace of doubt” comes from Luke 2:41-42. Jesus said, “And when the days were completed, she came forth and bore a son, and they called his name JESUS.” The phrase “born of a furnace of doubt” means that it was not easy for Mary to accept the fact that she was pregnant with Jesus. It was very hard for her to believe that there was a real way to God and she needed to find it.
