This however does not mean we are free to come up with our own personal version of 'if there is a God he will do magic tricks for me on demand.' In the teachings of Christ we are given some ways to put God to the test. If we do as instructed we will have proof of God.

Drich,
i have no biblically based questions... as the bible was written by illiterate camel humpers in the deserts of the middle east a couple thousand years ago. the only question i have is why people in this modern age still believe in that crap

Because people follow the instructions in the bible to receive 'proof' of god and they indeed do find what they are looking for, despite what you think of the bible's orgins.

If a treasure map lead you to a treasure of unimaginable wealth would you dismiss it because of who orginally wrote it? I followed this map and I found the wealth it has promised me in this life.
