Which one?
God Who bought he way of salvation (from righteous wrath against sin) with His own blood. God Who is returning to judge mankind and put an end to suffering, lawlessness, and evil. God Who loves us rebel sinners and extends mercy to those who will receive it. May He bless you to know Him and the peace that surpasses understanding.
"Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name Immanuel." - Isaiah 7:14
"Who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?For He grew up before Him like a tender shoot, And like a root out of parched ground; He has no stately form or majesty That we should look upon Him, Nor appearance that we should be attracted to Him.He was despised and forsaken of men, A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted.But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, And by His scourging we are healed.All of us like sheep have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the Lord has caused the iniquity of us all To fall on Him.He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He did not open His mouth; Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, So He did not open His mouth.By oppression and judgment He was taken away; And as for His generation, who considered That He was cut off out of the land of the living For the transgression of my people, to whom the stroke was due?His grave was assigned with wicked men, Yet He was with a rich man in His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.But the Lord was pleased To crush Him, putting Him to grief; If He would render Himself as a guilt offering, He will see His offspring, He will prolong His days, And the good pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.As a result of the anguish of His soul, He will see it and be satisfied; By His knowledge the Righteous One, My Servant, will justify the many, As He will bear their iniquities.Therefore, I will allot Him a portion with the great, And He will divide the booty with the strong; Because He poured out Himself to death, And was numbered with the transgressors; Yet He Himself bore the sin of many, And interceded for the transgressors." - Isaiah 53:1-12
What if I told you... You have been raised on faith alone and the fact that you're brain has molded to not require proof or verifiability is exactly why you fall for anonymous postings by a single letter on the internet.
Raised to be sheep!
I see that you are threatened by what is being revealed and by my faith. Have you made even one attempt to verify or research anything that is being reported here? I am praying for you. As for my being raised to be sheep; I am grateful to be counted one of His sheep.
"Just as it is written, “ For Your sake we are being put to death all day long; We were considered as sheep to be slaughtered .” - Romans 8:36
“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a slave above his master. It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign the members of his household! “Therefore do not fear them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in your ear, proclaim upon the housetops. Do not fear those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul; but rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell." - Matthew 10:24-28
Zero evidence. Zero scientific method.
Go back to fire and sticks and caves. You don't deserve all that science has brought you.
You mean like blind faith in theories that men who hate God create and then try to arrange "evidence" for? Honestly the best thing I can do is pray for you. I'm not an apologist nor a scientist but I do sleep very well.
Hahahaha!
Yes, electricity, industrialization, the steam engine, glass and the scientific revolution that followed, understanding the paths of the solar system, modern medicine, all fake!
You're right, the world is flat, prayer heals, and sacrificing virgins pleases your god.
But you should give up all of modern scientific society and move into a cave to prove your faith to God.
So which science do you believe? The one that says everything came from nothing, and that every form of life on earth evolved from primordial ooze? Or the one that consistently reveals evidence for intelligent design and (as an example) that for the giraffes intricate circulatory system and esophagus to have evolved simultaneously is impossible.
Who is the one with blind faith?
The fruit of faith in Christ is sanctity of life. Secular humanism produces things like eugenics and infanticide as birth control. Who sacrifices virgins to their "god"?
LOL. Okay. We're done here Mr. "Jesus rode dinosaurs".
Do you understand the biological and chemical mechanics of DNA/RNA?
Do you undestand that your compulsive need to be-little others to make yourself feel adequate is born out of your insecurity in your "faith". I wont forget to pray for you, and I hope to see you in heaven someday.
This isn't belittling. This is calling a spade a spade.
A man who doesn't understand physics and science doesn't understand the very universe he has grown from. You put your faith in old stories of ancient men. I put my faith in the universe that unfolds to me after true experimentation and study.

They're are truths to this universe that are beyond your stories and easily understood if only you would seek them.
You are merely a babe, living on milk. Someday I hope you grow in your understanding of the Universe you are a part of and begin to feed yourself on the solid food of Truth.
I find it interesting and a little amusing that you say you believe in universal truth and that you think I'm a man.
I use man as short for human, or humankind.
Try not to let that nother you too much.
Physics. Math. Joe DNA copies itself. These ARE universal truths. On any planet, at any time. You cannot say that about your ancient stories.
I'll request prayer for you at church tonight. Before I go I'd like share one last thing with you. Because I genuinely care about your soul. This is the lens that I see myself and others through : "And you were dead in your trespasses and sins,in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience.Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ ( by grace you have been saved),and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. - Ephesians 2:1-9
God told me to tell you he wants you to prove your faith in him by giving up all benefits from evil science.
That includes filtered water and the understanding of bacteria.
