Just because you won’t accept any answer doesn’t mean nobody has tried.

Exactly what are you looking for that would qualify as an answer to your question? What is it that would convince you?

You want scientific proof? Philosophical?

You want God to come down and smack you upside the head? Or drop a billboard down in front of you?

Are you looking for reasons to believe in Him or to reject him?

Let me tell you something, a god that you can understand is no God at all.

The early Christians only knew that they needed Jesus to be saved and a complete understanding of Him and His character, and all the finer points of doctrine that some people claim you need to know and believe in order to be saved, were not hammered out then.

Read the Gospels. People came to Jesus with simple requests. Lord, heal me. Lord, save me. And He did.

Whatever you need to know about God, HE will reveal to you, but without the Spirit of God revealing God to your spirit, it will be foolishness to you. An unsaved person is spiritually dead and CANNOT understand the things of God, anymore than a blind person can understand light or a Deaf person can understand sound.

If you’re going to wait to decide about God until you understand to your satisfaction, you will die in your sin.

And the sum of your reply was to question my sincerity. There are three others that did manage to answer my question and did it with out casting aspersions.
Proverbs 12:25 A fearful word troubles the heart of a man and a good word gladdens it.
Proverbs 15:23 An appropriate answer brings joy to a person, and a well-timed word is a good thing.
