Keep seeking. You'll find God. And when you do, you'll know.

Thank you

 

[VineyardsOfEngedi]

Yes. There’s an unseen kingdom and realm.

Will you elaborate?

 

[VineyardsOfEngedi]

Well, this is the journey that we all have to walk on.
It depends what you're looking for. Are you looking for God? He's all around you with His work.
Are you on a time of your life where you're confused?
These are crossroads moments where you might have to make some choices so keep searching and then you will also have the right question to ask.

Thank you

What do you mean split time in half?

BC and AD

Will you elaborate?

You don’t have to be a Christian to recognize and unseen realm - sound barrier, women’s intuition, laws, wind. But there is also a spiritual realm. There is a Doctor called Maurice Rawlings that you can look up on some things. There’s too much to list.

I'm just asking if there is more or anything outside this creation. That's all.

Well,

many have provided 1. Creation 2. the word of God, and 3. through the relationship with Christ.

• We have eyewitness counts.
• Historical narrative, 56000 manuscripts
• archaeological finds
• Geographical location

Personally all I hear are crickets and I've been waiting for something anything.

Unfortunately, if all you hear is crickets, you're gonna have to wait...

"No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him;" (Jn 6:44)​

When you hear Him, take what He says to heart, and go to Jesus as instructed...

"It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me." (Jn 6:45)​

I want to believe if its truth but I don't know so its harder for me to accept just like that simply because the Bible or because people claim the Bible is God's word. etc.

I am claiming God, that just loves you as you are. you do not have to clean up and prove anything to anyone else, not even yourself. (Phil 3) Between God and you in belief to God, you will agree and see what is good for you and stop it willingly, thanks to this love of God for you too.
God just loves us all so deeply, God, sent Son to die in our places of death. It has nothing to do with the flesh to continue to live. All flesh is considered dead by God ever since the first Adam ate from that tree in unbelief to 'God, the Soul is what God saves, by belief to God

James 1:21
Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls

Tell, God from within you, you believe God and see. Just do not quit no matter what troubles come up against you.

You do not try to stop sin, as religion teaches us to do. You trust God who stops it through you, so you will not boast over doing it correctly or not anymore.

1 Peter 3:20
Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight soulswere saved by water

God is after to save our Souls, not our flesh , yet man is trying to get God to save their flesh, focused on what each person does or does not do, which creates more sin of the flesh over and over and over again, even those that think they got it are not humble in it. Pride has got those under its control having a "Betty better than you attitude" Not one person is better that another.
No flesh can please God, but Son's that did that for us to be new in love and mercy to all, not just a few as first born flesh nature only knows how to do
He is risen, where new life is given to those that believe God and will not quit belief to God, as troubles are there to try to stop us in belief to this love and mercy given us
Col 1:21-23

You disagree? Intelligence Design is real. Some higher intelligence had to have thought in making or creating the Peacock feather look like an eye? Or do you think it was by random chance? You explain why the eye is on the feather?

I'm not sure if anyone here has come across the belief that humanity lives in a simulation, etc. I'm just trying to make sense of how or why the God of the bible is the creator of the universe simply only because the bible makes that claim?

I was raised in a Christian environment, I've read the bible, I've prayed, I've gone to church etc. Only recently I've started doubting, there are so many things the Bible cannot and does not answer. It really takes a toll. Maybe the question is vague.

The historical evidence for the life, death and resurrection is objectively sound. If Jesus died and rose again, the Bible is telling us the truth.

But it is not the purpose of the Bible to furnish us with a growing list of truth claims. The purpose of the Bible is to bring us into a growing, deepening relationship with the living God that changes us daily into a better more Christ-like person in both thoughts and deeds. We need to read the Bible with that purpose in mind, and God will reveal therein what we need to know and do to achieve that goal.

Maybe you could try this experiment. Read some scripture in the evening and/or the next morning, asking God to show you what that passage is showing you about God's character, and what it is advising you to do and to avoid doing to become more like Him in character. Then be alert during the unfolding day for opportunities God leads you into to practice what you heard that morning. See if that begins to persuade you that the Bible is relevant and the Christian God is at work in your life.

Maybe Matthew chapters 5 to 7 could be somewhere to start.

 

[Evmur]

What does?

you are at God's mercy as we all are at that point where we have seen the truth, the truth is we are all without God and without hope in this world. We are all dead men.

God has sent His Son to grant new life to all who will call upon Him and will trust Him. That life is in Christ and He gives to whom He will.

"Whosoever shall call upon the name Lord shall be saved"
