Um, no one can convince you love
I could sit here and talk till I'm blue in the face about God, and you wouldn't believe me. I have a ton of evidence, because I was an agnostic atheist a mere few months ago. Then I got the biggest shock of my life - God is legit dude.
It's not the stereotypical mushugana fairy man in the sky either. It's fuking epic is what it really is.
I got so sick and tired of hearing about all this lovey dovey crap at church, about how God gave his only begotten son, and how we should spread peace and love yada yada - pretty much stuff I was taught by my parents - stuff that non - believers learn with common sense.
I love science, I love facts, I love proof and I love to falsify things
However, the problem I started to make was trying to seek God's answers from mankind.
Dude, if you really wanna know God, with all your heart, then get on your knees and ask him. Ask Father for the truth to him.
Keep in mind of your intentions though; even though I was agnostic atheist, I still had a glimmer of deep love and desire for God - I was literally screaming and crying in the middle of the student lounge when I finally broke down because I just wanted to find Father again.
Matthew 7:7
" Seek and you will find..."
The most legit statement if the bible ever had one - and it has a ton of em ha ha.
Be wary of what you may get yourself into - I went from being a typical Christian, to an agnostic atheist - and now other Christians ridicule me for what I believe, because God gave me more than I ever could of asked for.
All of this done logically. I was reading another forum on here where a poster said " You can't look at God logically," LOL that's pretty silly -
God created us, our Father knows how our minds work, how our logic comes to play - which is why the bible has several verses in which God talks about the " Wisdom" which isn't really wisdom at all that men on earth believe they have.
Science, as much as I love it, is but mankind's feeble attempt to understand what we never fully will. At least not in this lifetime. The more observations are found, the more infinite observations are to be made. After coming into this revelation of God, I was watching all the documentaries I thrilled about before about the big bang and other theories.
All of them end up saying, " we just don't know, and we now aren't sure if we ever will."
The true wisdom actually lies in understanding God, because the physical world is brief and comes to pass. It is the spiritual world that is our true reality - it is actually our true birth place according to Eclesiasties 12:7 which talks about our souls returning to God.
You cannot return to a place you've never been...hint hint ;D
A lot of people think Adam and Eve were the first humans - erm no that totally violates evolution, biology and nature. Cain got a wife - there were other people clearly.
The earth is also not 6,000 years old; the bible just accurately documents 6,000 years of time.
Anyway I'll cut to the chase -
The logical element your looking for in the bible, is it's prophetical element; real life human history is 100% accounted for in the bible - it even details metaphorically WW2 and the dropping of the first atomic bomb as a marker for 2nd Coming Christ's coming.
Jesus's birth was predicted hundreds of years before it really happened; real kingdoms and nations that are recorded in non - biblical textbooks are predicted to rise and fall hundreds - even thousands of years before they do. Real kings who lived and people like Solomon and David were prophesied to exist and fulfill a profound purpose of God's will.
Even our age is recorded most accurately in the bible - the time of false prophets, the anti - chirst, spiritual babylon, and of course the completion of Father's will and purpose for the Earth. Ya know, the very famous book of Revelations? It talks a lot about what's going on right now, spiritually at this very moment.
Isaiah is also an extremely prophetical book.
The bible also talks about scientific theories like how gravity deals with the suspension of the earth in space, the cycle of the sun, the water cycle, and detailing about the very core of the earth. All this is mentioned in the OT in books written a couple thousand years before Sir Isaac Newton and these theories became recognized in physical human society. Matter of factly, the water cycle was written by Job in a time in which no one knew how this worked.
Job 36: 27
" He draws up the drops of water, which distill as rain to the streams; (28) the clouds pour down their moisture and abundant showers fall on mankind."
Keep in mind that 1.) The book of Job was written centuries ago, and 2.) There were no means of scientifically detecting water vapor or detailing the water cycle at that time through those mechanisms.
There's some more little things like that, but the biggest logical aspect of the bible is it's prophecy which is still supernaturally accurate.
Hence why Revelations says
Rev 22: 7
" Behold, I am coming soon!
Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book."
People don't seem to pay attention to this aspect - I know I definitely didn't before. Jesus warns about watching for this logical element, because it was how the Pharisee's and those who said they believed in God in his time, ended up rebuking Jesus as their savior and crucifying him.
Jesus even tells one of the Pharisees that even though the diligently study the scriptures, they still didn't recognize their saviour. The Pharisee's were concerning themselves with trying to be righteous by their own efforts instead of the text of the bible and came to be spiritually blind.
Anyway, it truly is a personal testament for everyone when it comes to God.
Free will is having the choice to follow God or not; if you do not fear God and do not believe love, I can't make you believe or convince you.
That is between you and God.
All I say is that if you want the answers, only the author knows his works, and thus only God can reveal to you the extent of his brilliance - but that again depends on where your heart truly is.
Do not expect to have immediate results lol it's not like I had a magical dream or God personally talked to me. I just ran into some very random people at my school - but God was definitely with them!
I hope you find what your truly looking for - and maybe we'll commemorate over some cold one's in Heaven lol xD
If there ever was time to get right with God, this would be that time.
