The Lie: The Burden Of Proof Is On The Believers The Truth: The Burden Of Proof Is On The Skeptics

Skeptics keep saying that the burden of proof is on us, when in reality, the burden of proof is on them.

It has already been established that God lives and His Word is Truth. Nobody can change that.

It has already been established that He alone is the one true God and nobody can change that.

This is what God says about Himself:

“I am El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty.’ Genesis 17:1
I Am Who I Am. Say this to the people of Israel: I Am has sent me to you.” Exodus 3:14
And God said to Moses, “I am Yahweh—‘the Lord.’ Exodus 6:2
“I am the Lord who heals you.” Exodus 15:26
“I am merciful.” Exodus 22:27
“Yahweh! The Lord! The God of compassion and mercy! I am slow to anger and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness.” Exodus 34:6
“Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” Psalm 46:10
“I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not give my glory to anyone else, nor share my praise with carved idols.” Isaiah 42:8
I, yes I, am the Lord, and there is no other Savior. First I predicted your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world. No foreign god has ever done this. You are witnesses that I am the only God,” says the Lord. Isaiah 43:11-12
“From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of my hand. No one can undo what I have done.” Isaiah 43:13
This is what the Lord says— your Redeemer and Creator: “I am the Lord, who made all things. I alone stretched out the heavens. Who was with me when I made the earth?” Isaiah 44:24
Jesus answered, “I am. And in the future, you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of God, the Powerful One, and coming on clouds in the sky.” Mark 14:62
“I am the light of the world. The person who follows me will never live in darkness but will have the light that gives life.” John 8:12
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will have life even if they die. John 11:25
Jesus answered, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. The only way to the Father is through me.” John 14:6
The Lord God says, “I am the Alpha and the Omega. I am the One who is and was and is coming. I am the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8

This is what God had said about Himself and what Jesus had said about Himself. What they have said had already been established as Truth and nobody can ever change it.

What has been written in the Word of God as mankind's history has been established as man's history and nobody can change it.

God has proven and is still proving Himself to mankind and nobody can change it.

Now, it is up to the skeptic to disprove what God has already established to be the Truth.

Amen. It really isn't our job to prove anything. The Bible says the proof is in the experience. So true. We just share what we have learned from God's Word. Jesus already proved himself, when He came here in person. People either believe or they don't, but the Bible says if you want to find God, and your heart is really in it, you can search for Him and you will find Him...go to Him in prayer and read God's Word. Seek and ye shall find. That's why it is such a personal experience, because in order to find God and have Him in your life, one must seek Him out personally, and that's when they find him. Not through debating whether he's alive or not. God speaks for Himself and there's nothing more He could have done to show He lives. If people don't believe in Him after that, they never will, unless they unharden their hearts. I sure don't know how anyone could miss Him. When we look in the mirror, we see God's creation. When we look at nature, we see God's beautiful handiwork. You simply can't miss it.
