(12,482 posts)I believe in God. I can't prove the existence of God and I have no need to. I will quote the liberal theologian George Ricker who puts it better than I could. "God is an object of faith, a transcendent diminsion of life not amenable to our physical senses; and Jesus is the lense through which I experience God." I can't tell you for certsin there is a God, only that I believe in God and Jesus as his son. It is simply a conu sion I I have reached through reading the Bible, though I know it isn't inerrant as fundamentalists believe. But it an anthology of people trying to explain God and our relation to him.
See nothing I say will satisfy you intellectually. That is the faith part. BBut I a ppreciate your questions and respectful tone. I will try to answer any specific questions you have regarding specific "supernatural" aspects of the Bible though I am sure I will fall short.
