You Can Know (Not Just Believe)

There Is a God

According to many surveys taken and submitted by several poll taking companies and organizations, including the Pew Research Center Poll (http://www.pewforum.org/religious-landscape-study/belief-in-god/), only 89 percent of adults in the United States say that they believe in God, yet the same market research taken by these pollsters shows that there are strong indications that many people are less certain about this belief in God than in years past. There are also a small but growing number of Americans that say they do not believe in God at all. It has been established even among Christian groups that the lack of certainty in God’s existence is only in the 60 percent range, which is very strange to me when we consider the meaning of the word *Christian.

[i]*Christian (a true follower of *Jesus and his teaching).

*Jesus (the *Word of God the Father).

*Word (Revelation 19:13 And he [*Jesus] was clothed with a vesture [garment] dipped in blood and his name is called the word of God [the Father].[/i]

As one who wholeheartedly and sincerely follows all of Jesus’s teaching (which none can do without the help of God the Father’s *grace), especially as one who follows the teaching and command that Jesus laid down in *Matthew 28:19, and for the sake not only of the 89 percent in the United States that say they believe in God but for the remaining believing and disbelieving population around the world (some polls reporting only 51 percent worldwide believe in God) and for all to pass it on to their children, I am compelled and duty bound to call attention to what Jesus said in *John 7:17.

[i]*grace (God the Father’s undeserved favor and good will; the tree of life).

*Matthew 28:19–20 Go ye [you] therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost [Spirit]; 20 Teaching them to observe [comply with; obey] all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo [bear in mind], I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen [so be it].

*John 7:17 If any man will do his [God the Father’s] will, he shall know of the doctrine (teaching), whether it be of (from) God, or whether I speak of myself.[/i]

Now I know that the greater part of the world has heard of Jesus and his teaching because of the report that the Holy Bible has been and continues to be the all-time best-selling book worldwide. This makes me wonder and taken aback why the percentage of believers the world over is so low with verses such as I have pointed out above. Perhaps we could talk about the reasons for this low percentage at another time.

Jesus also informed us in John 8:32 And ye [you], if you continue to be my [disciples, followers] shall know [not just believe] the truth, and [the certainty of] the truth shall make you free.

What truth
