RE: eeerrrr no I currently don’t believe in Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Bigfoot, The Loch Ness Monster, Unicorns, etc. If they revealed themselves, I would then believe them, not out of fear but because they would then be true.

There is a HUGE difference between things like dark Matter, energy, BigFoot, Lochness Monsters and Unicorns and God.

God is the CREATOR, the others (if some exist) are CREATURES.

Just curious:

1) In what manner would you prefer that God reveal Himself to you?

2) God commands that He be worshiped and yes, FEARED ( as in revered). If He revealed Himself to you in the manner you demand in order that you will believe, would you then bow down and worship and fear (in the Biblical sense ) Him?

For some reason the html characters I used did not format my post correctly (or I slipped up). The “eeerrr no” remark was a quote from qam1, not my words. I do not hold this view. But, his claim that his belief in them would be based upon “truth” rather than “fear” is a good point.

I was simply saying, this is why God does not reveal Himself...according to the Scriptures. “It has been given you to understand. It has not been give to them.”

Do you feel your questions still apply? If so, I will answer them.
