Agnostics believe that the existence of God is unknown or impossible to know. The document presents arguments against the agnostic view, including that Jesus fulfilled prophecies in a way that could not be explained by chance. It also argues that the complexity of the human brain and cell communication points to an intelligent designer. The reliability of the Bible is defended based on many early manuscripts and eyewitness accounts in the text itself.

Revelation 3:16 (NLT) 16 But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! Theist-Belief Atheist-Disbelief Agnostic-Neither
AGNOSTICS BELIEVE THERE IS NOTHING KNOWN REGARDING THE EXISTENCE OF GOD.
THAT THE ABILITY TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE OR TRUTH REGARDING GOD IS DENIED AND IMPOSSIBLE.
AND CREATION IS AN ACT OF UNEXPLAINABLE SCIENCE
Jesus claimed to be God. ¡°The Father and I are one.¡± John 10:30 ¡°At my Fathers direction, I have done many good works. For which one are you going to stone me?¡± John 10:31-32 ¡°If you knew me, you would also know my Father.¡± John 8:19
Liar? No. Lunatic? No. Lord? Yes! His moral teachings were intelligible and comprehensible, his mind never went astray. His instructions have liberated many people out of mental bondage. He didn¡¯t have a bloated ego, even though he was surrounded by adoring crowds. He loved and made important all people including women and children who weren¡¯t seen as important.
TAKE 10^17 SILVER DOLLARS AND LAY THEM ON THE FACE OF TEXAS. THEY'LL COVER ALL OF THE STATE TWO FEET DEEP. NOW MARK ONE OF THESE SILVER DOLLARS AND STIR THE WHOLE MASS THOROUGHLY, ALL OVER THE STATE. BLINDFOLD A MAN AND TELL HIM THAT HE CAN TRAVEL AS FAR AS HE WISHES, BUT HE MUST PICK UP ONE SILVER DOLLAR AND SAY THAT THIS IS THE RIGHT ONE. WHAT CHANCE WOULD HE HAVE OF GETTING THE RIGHT ONE? THERE ARE 353 PROPHECIES FULFILLED IN JESUS CHRIST. THIS IS THE CHANCE OF SOMEONE FULFILLING THESE PROPHECIES, JUST AS JESUS.
The Bible¡¯s variants aren¡¯t really variants at all. It consists of 75% of spelling differences such as the name John spelled John or Johnn. Also, referring to ¡°he¡± or ¡°she¡± rather than there name in some manuscripts. Lastly, 1% involving the meaning such as ¡°our joy¡± or ¡°your joy¡± which doesn¡¯t change the central doctrine of the Christian faith. The Bible is made up of more than 5600 Greek manuscripts with over 50,000 identified sealed fragments that would be embarrassing to compare with other works of antiquity.
The Bible also consists of internal evidence such as eyewitness accounts. ¡°We were not making up clever stories when we told you about the powerful coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. We saw His majestic splendor with our own eyes.¡± 2 Peter 1:16 ¡°This report is from an eyewitness giving an accurate account. He speaks the truth so that you can also believe.¡± John 19:35
There exists no document from the ancient world witnessed by so much textual and historical testimonies and data. The Bible is historical and reliable proof that we have knowledge and truth regarding God and His existence.
The human brain is a control center that runs the body. It weighs only three pounds but contains 100 billion neurons. David Eagle man states; ¡°There are as many connections in a single cubic centimeter of brain tissue as there are stars in the Milky Way galaxy¡±. The "message sender" (DNA) and the "message receiver" (mRNA) both spontaneously evolved, by chance? The message sender" (DNA) and the "message receiver" (mRNA) instantaneously communicated with each other? This is so unlikely that for practical purposes we can consider this impossible by the laws of probability. Science is limited in that it does not grant absolute truth, but only
Psalms 139:13-18 "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the Earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand. When I awake, I am still with you" (NIV). The human body is so intricate that it only makes sense that God is the creator.
AGNOSTIC¡¯S DO NOT TRULY SEEK GOD They put forth no effort¡­¡­¡­.. Jeremiah 29:13 (NIV) You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
