An article in the recent House to House mentions that the Bible does not present a defense of the existence of a Supreme Being but assumes men will know God is and gives Psalm 14:1 as well as several other verses as support.
I understand how nature is evidence of the existence of a Creator. To the unbeliever the Bible is not evidence and they view the Bible much like Christians view the Koran and the way Atheists view both Bible and Koran. If it is reasonable to believe there is a creator based on what is seen what similarly points folks to Jesus? One of the reasons the church loses its youth may be that neither they nor their teachers know why they believe what they believe.
For most of us acceptance of a truth depends on our perception of the person telling us that truth. If we trust the person we accept if we do not we reject. Truth has little to do with which we choose.
