Chapter Four

Philosophy: Beliefs and Worldviews

I understand that you don’t need "proof” to believe in your God or any god for that matter, but you would think that if all these fantastic stories were even almost true there would be proof all over the place or at least even something that is reasonable proof.

You may be able to believe without proof (embracing the theory of evolution), but I can’t. I need evidence to evaluate. I wouldn’t bother dedicating my entire life to a cause if there was no proof.

The primary proof for me is knowing God, and that comes from God’s Word. Before my conversion on April 25, 1972, at 1:30 a.m., I knew that God existed via creation (Romans 1). You can’t have a creation without a Creator. That’s impossible. Modern atheists say that there is no "creation.” But then they have to rid themselves of the word "made,” because that also speaks to a Maker. Try to think of something that was made that didn’t have a maker. Clothing and shoes usually have a label on them so that you can know the identity of the maker. Cars also have a label. Even if the Mercedes company didn’t have "Mercedes” on their vehicles, common sense will tell you that the car had a maker. Its design denotes a designer. It was "design” that convinced Einstein that God existed, even though he didn’t believe that God is "personal.”

As for all the fantastic stories, there is evidence for many of them, if you care to look. The problem is that you no doubt have presuppositions, so there’s not much point in looking. Which takes me back to the primary proof. Go through the test in www.needGod.com. That will show you that you need a Savior. Then read John 14:21 a few times. It’s either true or it isn’t.

When you come to know God, everything else falls into place. It’s like sitting in a dark room believing that it is empty. Someone says to switch on the light. Once you do that, you will see everything from a different perspective.
