Jesus's Credentials: Sufficient Evidence
The Bible provides sufficient proof, but there will always be those predisposed to unbelief who will never be convinced. Again in Luke 16 of the man who went to hell. He suggested raising a man from the dead and sending the man to his brothers as proof to warn them of hell. But he was told, "If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead." Lk 16:31 And we see this kind of thing actually played out in Jesus ministry where "a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well, for on account of him many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and putting their faith in him." John 12:9-11 Those predisposed to unbelief are so largely due to the implications of the message. Not even miracles would convince such people. "Yet these men speak abusively against whatever they do not understand; and what things they do understand by instinct, like unreasoning animals— these are the very things that destroy them." Jude 1:10

"Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith." 2Thess 3:1,2
