Bible Question: I am a single mother. I have been feeling lost. How do you know there is a God? |
Bible Answer: Welcome to the Forum, Maryann, I would start by clarifying the question. How do you know that there is a (fill in the blank)? If someone asked me, How do you know that there is a snark, I would ask him what's a snark? Likewise, I would ask him, What do you mean by God? The word doesn't mean the same thing to everyone. Clear communication requires that we both know what we mean by our words. Now, if someone were to asked me, how do I know that there is an eternal, omniscient, omnipotent, sovereign invisible Spirit who created everything from nothing, who is all wise, most just, good, loving, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth?
