What mechanism do you use?
How does your mechanism for detection differ than say, Hindus, Muslims, Zoroastrians, Sikhs, etc, etc?
I rely on the testimony of those who who walked with Jesus during his public life and the miracles he performed as written in the scriptures. In a courtroom we use testimony of witnesses to help determine guilt or innocence. The bible is a testimony that was passed down through the years telling of a coming messiah that was fufilled in Jesus. I also opened myself to God and he drew me to him. I've investigated atheism and other religions and at times I've considered walking away, but there's nothing to go to.
So that's was my way - the testimony of witness, the reliability of biblical prophesies concerning Jesus and other events, finding other relligions and philosophies lacking and most of all, God's calling. If you won't open yourself, you won't hear.
