So that got me thinking. It's true. Some aspects of faith are illogical - they don't make sense to our human minds. Many aspects of Christianity rely on belief in a supernatural element. There are tenets that hinge on the spiritual, unseen realm. They require a solid foundational belief that God is real.
Many people today are introduced to Christianity by going to church. They're taught to believe there's a God "somewhere". They're taught to read the Bible. They're taught to say their daily prayers.
But we don't teach how to seek God. We don't instruct how to hear His voice. We don't spend quality time showing others how to build solid, personal relationships with the Lord. People view faith in God as adhering to a set of rules, living according to a moral code, or simply church attendance.
As a result, they can be tricked into seeing Christianity as invalid. They can be persuaded that "God" can mean different things to different people and still be correct. They can even go as far as to not believe that a God exists and see Him as a "nice idea".
Why do you believe? What persuades you that the Lord is real? Have you had a personal encounter with the Lord? Can you say that you know that God is real with certainty?
If you haven't experienced God on a personal level, I encourage you to seek God. Simply ask God to reveal Himself to you. Ask Him to speak to you, to show you His existence in a way that will give you a certainty beyond any doubt that He is real.
I know that the Lord will answer your request. How do I know? Because I asked Him for myself one day, and He answered my call. I know God is real, and no one can make me think any differently.
Verse of the Day: But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king... Jeremiah 10:10a
