Any nutcase can spend a night in a cave and come out claiming to have had some dramatic epiphany. Why do you put your trust in the words of mere mortals when you could ask God Himself? Have you ever bothered to even ask God if Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel were legitimate prophets? Have you ever bothered to ask Jesus if He feels the Gospel writers have quoted Him accurately? Do you know how many satanic cults have sacred texts which they cling to as fiercely as you cling to the Christian Bible? Until you have sincerely sought the wisdom of God directly, you have no basis on which you can possibly argue that the Christian Bible is more reliable than the Quran. This world is filled with conflicting theories about who the true gods are. How can you possibly say the Hindus are wrong and you are right if your faith is only based on some so-called sacred text? You claim that Jesus rose from the dead—but how do you know that? Because it says so in the Bible? The Bible is the product of men. Maybe some of them really were speaking for God, maybe none of them were, maybe all of them were. The point is that you don’t know until you ask God. You have to ask, and then you have to wait for Him to answer you before you can possibly proceed with any sense of confidence.
