Until you yield to God, you will not have the capacity to see the vidence, even though the universe and everything in it was created by God.
Even you know that what you just wrote is total bullshit. Many people have "yielded to God" (Jesus) and yet they completely failed to be educated since there are many thousands of different Christianities that preach different things. Like some Christianities still cling to flat Earth while others concluded that biological evolution is true and yet I bet you're not one of them. Also your own division of Christianity believed Jesus will come on Earth on specific dates and failed - so much of yielding to Jesus to know the Bible.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
