Faith?
I came to Christ by the process of elimination.
One of my greatest challenges was whether or not Satan is real.
Ah, you might have even succeeded in proving there was a Christ by argument. You’re probably better than I in this regard. A tip of the hat to your acumen.
But then, having proved your way to Christ, will you BELIEVE? Christ comes with a raft of promises that are quite counterintuitive to the world.
I met His spirit after desperate prayer, then over a span of decades He proved to me more and more that He was real and according to the documentation in the bible.
