    you just have to start the process by believing He exists,heb ch11:1-6.once you have been convicted about your sin by the H.G you can then be saved because the word says that no man comes to Jesus unless the Spirit draws him.hard times usually causes people to look for help and when other things fail,some turn to God for help seeing no other option,once they discover how good and merciful He is they usually wonder why they took so long to give Him an chance and usually regret that decision of not giving him a chance in the first place. they then usually devote their lives to the one whom they find to be the lover of their soul.

    We know God is who He claims to be because He’s done what He said He would do. That’s the whole point of prophecy and why studying it is so important to us. It’s God authenticating Himself.

    For 6000 years He’s been describing things before they happened, so when they did His people would know that He was telling us the truth. Everything He said would happen in the past has happened, so it makes sense to trust that everything He said would happen in the future will happen.

    There are over 300 Old Testament prophecies, all of them a matter of public record hundreds of years before the fact, predicting the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus the Christ. The abundance and specificity of these prophecies demolish any notion of chance, exceed the requirements of statistical analysis, and prove more conclusively than any other fact of history that Jesus is the Son of God. In fact there is more hard evidence to prove that He is Who He claims to be, than there is that you are who you claim to be.

    This is the unique and truly beautiful thing about the Bible. It stands alone among the so-called Holy Writings of the world, in its self-validating ability. Only the Bible tells the future with 100% accuracy. God knew we would be skeptical, unbelieving children. So early on, He began telling us things in advance of their occurrence so when what He said came true, we would be willing to believe Him. In this way we can be assured that our faith is justified.

    In fact in Isaiah 44:6-8 God challenged anyone who claimed to be like Him to a two part test.  Part 1 is to accurately recount the past and part two is to accurately proclaim the future. Only God, who knows the end from the beginning  can do this.

    Anyone who will put aside their pre-conceived notions and undertake an unbiased study of Old Testament prophecy can prove God’s existence beyond a shadow of doubt within a few hours. As God had Isaiah write, “I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me.   I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come.” (Isaiah 46:9-10)  No other so-called deity can make that claim.

    When you study Bible Prophecy and World History side by side it doesn’t require much faith at all to believe the Bible. The evidence in fulfilled prophecy is just too overwhelming. But don’t take my word for this, try it for yourself. The truth converts emotion to logic, adds knowledge to zeal, and makes your faith unshakable. Someday soon that kind of faith might well come in handy.

    Read the Bible!

    Job 9:23

    When a scourge brings sudden death, God*

    (*not Satan but God!)

    mocks the despair of the INNOCENT*

    (*that’s religion! Nobody in FIRE AND RESCUE would do that!)

    ==

    GOD is about to break his elbow poking SATAN in the ribs while they watch any tragedy in the world!

    Job 9:24

    WHEN a land falls into the hands of the wicked*

    (*God is helpless!)

    he* (*GOD) blindfolds its judges. If it is not he, then who is it?*

    (*certainly not Satan, but God jumping into the act!)

    Eze 14:9

    And if the prophet*

    (*any Prophet)

    be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have DECEIVED that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will DESTROY HIM*

    (*Christians are aiding and abetting a very immoral God)

    ==

    The Early Church Fathers came up with a Super-Narcissist John 3:16 God idea PREMEDITATING THE MURDER of God the Son Jesus Christ!

    1 Pet 1:19-20

    with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without SPOT*

    (*NOT TRUE! He was beaten to a pulp full of Roman soldiers’ SPIT!)

    who verily*

    (*no bull crap!)

    Was FOREORDAINED before the foundation of the world*

    (*Jesus is “the beginning of the creation of God” -Rev3:14, where the Holy Trinity Dudes picked the 2nd Holy Person for the slaughter! His spit marinated body sacrifice turned into a “sweet pleasing aroma” up into God’s Holy nostrils –Eph5:2)

    Lam 3:37-38

    Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when THE LORD commandeth it not? out of the mouth of the Most High proceedeth not EVIL* (*first evil!) and good*? (*Jer19:7)

    Jer 19:9

    I* (*God, not Satan but GOD!) will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters*

    (*God wishes you, Bon Appetit!)

    Lam 4:10

    With their own hands COMPASSIONATE WOMEN*

    (*not lesbian, or atheist ladies, but God loving women)

    have cooked their own children…*

    (*they turned out delicious!)

    Exo 4:11

    The Lord said to him, “Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the LORD?*

    (*NO SIR! It a freaky natural event that Christians blame Satan for)

    (*only moron Christians don’t get it)

    Prov 16:4

    The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the WICKED*

    (*God created Satan!) for the Day of Evil.

    ==

    SATAN was ready to tempt Eve as soon as she was put together! God didn’t warn Adam or Eve about any talking snake.

    God provided no Guardian Angels to watch over Eve, and by extension, over “all nations.”

    Ruth 1:20-21

    … the ALMIGHTY has made my life very bitter. I went away full, but the LORD has brought me back empty… The LORD has afflicted me; the Almighty*

    (*not Satan but God!)

    has brought misfortune upon me.”*

    (*she was not “Demon possessed” to make a claim like this)

    Prov 1:26-28

    I* (*not Satan but God is speaking here!)

    in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you*

    (*Christians don’t have the required IQ to get it, but God waits for an accident to happen to get a good laugh)

    when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you. Then they will call to me but I* (*God) will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me*

    (*God is too busy filing his fingernails)

    1 John 3:8

    For the Devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God* (*Jesus Christ) was manifested, that he MIGHT DESTROY the works of the devil*

    (Just the works… not Satan!)

    ==

    Satan is a GENTLEMAN for suggesting Eve to acquire plain knowledge of good and evil that God reserved only for the Clergy to manipulate.

    Eve was not looking for fame, sex, drugs or money!

    Satan and the Demons were saved through Noah’s Flood when God killed everybody else for getting “more violent every day.” Satan and the Demons never got any more violent.

    If God would have destroyed Satan and the Demon in Noah’s Flood, there was no need to nail Jesus to any Holy Cross!

    =Satan dragged Jesus to a secluded rest area on top of the tallest mountain on Earth to show him ALL his kingdoms. He was ready to hand them over to Jesus if he would discreetly KNEEL DOWN and start worshipping him guy to guy without any foreplay or ceremonies (Mat4:9).

    Satan was about to retire! The Dudes of the Holy Trinity lost another good opportunity to get rid of the Devil, without having to nail Jesus Christ to any Holy Cross!

    In all the contributions that the Jews are making to humanity, sh*t happens!

    They also wrote the Bible stories that are used by Christians and Muslims to bring so much pain, war, death and suffering into our world!

    Christians pay at least 10% of their income to their Clergy to believe all this crap!

    RELIGION IS AN INSULT TO HUMAN DIGNITY.
