will.\u00a0 Eventually faith in anything or anyone will either make me foolish, or make me appear foolish to others.\u00a0 That really isn\u2019t the question.\u00a0 The question is, Is Jesus worthy of my faith whether I am, or appear to be, foolish or not?\u00a0 The keepers of the Hebrew language of the Old Testament have bet the farm on their faith that Jesus is not their Messiah.\u00a0 I am
