In John 7 the pharisees make it clear to the people that those who believe that Jesus is the Christ are on the outside.   Although Jesus confirms who He is through His various miracles, and through His amazing sermons and revelations of the scriptures, only those who are willing to see past the uncertainty cast by the naysayers will find him to be the Messiah.  Will you?  And if so, are you willing to be called a fool for Christ, which is most certainly what the world will call you.
