Iano:
"Only decide from analysis of 'Creation' whether or not a Creator exists."
This statement is totally false. Hundreds of millions of people have been the "Elect" who never studied the 'Creation.'
"No one can come to Me (Jesus) unless the Father who sent me draws him" - John 6.44.
"Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" - Rom 10.17.
And, it is taught that the word of God comes by witnesses; such as the apostles, and myself.
"Man has not the means within himself to know if God exists or not. God has to be the one to show he exists" - Iano.
This is semi-false. The "Elect" are not human beings; we are a spiritual "creation" (2Cor 5.17).
"For by grace you have been saved through faith ..." - Eph 2.8.
We are "born out of water and of Spirit" (Jn 3.5); meaning that we receive the Spirit of God in our minds through prayer, after we had been cleansed from sin.
Then -- you know that God exists!
He is in your mind!
And we solve the riddles of the Bible that are impossible for mere man to know, but are revealed to the "Elect."
By the proper interpretation of prophecy, the children of God have always known the future; and have been known to be children of God.
No Atheist has ever predicted the future correctly.
