The dictionary defines "believe" in the modern sense (below). It has become a very poor substitute for the word that Jesus used.



intransitive senses



1 a : to have a firm religious faith b : to accept as true, genuine, or real <ideals we believe in> <believes in ghosts>



2 : to have a firm conviction as to the goodness, efficacy, or ability of something <believe in exercise>



3 : to hold an opinion : THINK <I believe so>



transitive senses



1 a : to consider to be true or honest <believe the reports> <you wouldn't believe how long it took> b : to accept the word or evidence of <I believe you> <couldn't believe my ears>



2 : to hold as an opinion : SUPPOSE <I believe it will rain soon>



None of these is what Jesus said!

"Good enough" isn't.

Always take your responsibilities seriously but never yourself.
