Jesus said, “Anyone who chooses to do the will of God will find out whether my teaching comes from God” — John 7:17

Science, they say, is sure:
well-designed experiments
gathering empirical evidence
to prove or refute
your hypothesis.
Reasonable work:
proof, or refutation.

Jesus, they say, is
the opposite of science:
His humanity,
His divinity,
His teaching,
just blindly believed.
Unreasonable: unverifiable.

Yet how truly scientific
is the Savior!
How reasonable
is the Reason of God!
Jesus scientifically says:
Would you surely know?
Put my teaching to the test.

Your life is
a well-designed experiment.
My teaching is
a hypothesis that will prove true.
I am science’s Creator:
Would you surely know?
Put my teaching to the test.
