You & God
Charles Stanley said,
"We are either in the process of resisting God's truth or in the process of being shaped and moulded by His truth." Charles Stanley.
God has given each person complete freedom. That freedom includes choosing to believe that He exists or not. It includes the freedom to follow what He wants us to do and obeying His word as presented in the Bible or not.
Only the individual can decide for themselves if God is real and if they are willing to follow Him.
And just because a person does not believe in God does not mean he doesn’t exist. C. S. Lewis said,
“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.”
C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain.
God is always near us all we have to do is acknowledge Him.
Believing in God is an act of faith. The writer of Hebrew defining faith as,
God has given us a choice. The write of Hebrews speaking of Jesus explains,
“In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” Hebrews 1:1-3.
The apostle John records Jesus as speaking of himself saying,
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son”. John 3:16-18.
God wants all people to enter heaven. However they have a freewill to do as they wish. That choice is an act of faith on behalf of the individual. Only they can decide.
Thus the choice is yours do you believe in God?
Do you believe Jesus is His one and Only Son, the Saviour of Mankind?
You must decide.
Please think about it.

Believing in God is an act of faith. The writer of Hebrew defining faith as,
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do not see.”
Hebrews 11:1.
The writer going on to tell us,
“And without faith it is impossible to please God,
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists
and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
Hebrews 11:6.
There is no middle ground when it comes to believing in God. You either believe or you do not.God has given us a choice. The write of Hebrews speaking of Jesus explains,
