If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?

RE: If you believe in the God of the Bible, why try to prove it logically?
I can think of at least one reason: a certain person might reject revelation on the basis that the God of said revelation is purported to be omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent. "But," claims the person, "you have not presented any arguments for the claim that such a being exists." So you employ rational argumentation.
"I know what you are thinking about,' said Tweedledum: 'but it isn't so, nohow.'

'Contrariwise,' continued Tweedledee, 'if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic." ~Tweedledum and Tweedledee discussing the finer points of logic
