But Is He Real?

I think people have issues about God and faith because they think in terms of fantasy and fairy tales. They read stories about Noah's Ark and the parting of the Red Sea, about manna coming down from heaven, and Joshua granted extra hours in a day so he could continue to battle. These things can't be true, can they? Absolutely! There are mounds of evidence to support the truth of these Biblical claims. I will not go into details here, but check out www.answersingenesis.org and www.alwaysbeready.com to name just a few places to do some research.

So, if the Bible ends up being reliable in its claims, then can't the God of the Bible be true? Of course. And God gives you a way to test Him. In Jeremiah 29:13, God says, "And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart." If you really want to know if God is real, then wholeheartedly ask Him to reveal Himself to you. If He is truly God, He will have more than adequate means to show you Who He is.

The question is: Are you up to the challenge? It's easy to know the truth. Just ask God for it.
