My questions deal with the here and now. Does God allow evidence of his existence today that can be substantiated? Since any evidence provided today is not written in the Bible, the evidence would need to be discussed and since you do not wish to dicuss the evidence, we have no discussion.
I agree that the Bible was written some time ago but we still have it today so we still know about God in the past.
Today we can still observe God's creation. We have been given a beautiful world to live in. The little we have seen of the rest of the universe doesn't look that hospitable.
We learn about God today through our range of emotions. We have consciousness. Why? We learn about God when we hug our loved ones. There may be sorrow in the world but if there were no sorrow we couldn't know joy.
I believe that science is a modern day method of God revealing himself to us. (I know that there are many here who vehemently disagree with this.)We can look at the balance required to hold the universe together with mathematical precision. How about particles. Everything is particles, and so everything is conditional on the characteristics of these particles. Where is the wisdom coming from to give impetus to the changing nature of the particles? Science has found in the terms of a layman's layman that our reality is an illusion. An illusion requires a creator and what a beautiful illusion has been provided for us.
There are wise modern writers such as CS Lewis and others that can help in revealing God to us. On the other hand there are some false prophets who will distort God's reality.
I believe that God reveals himself in many ways today but the evidence is circumstantial so we have the freedom to make what we want of the evidence.
