You have an exact valued identity.
Nothing can see you exactly are you are but God.
Therefore God exists.
In holy books, this emphasized but not in formal logic format, but everyday language format.
Unsupported, non-falsifiable assertion. FAIL! Next case.

God, the one who hears our innermost secret and accounts us for our deeds by his true balanced judgement.

Dude, I don't know what you've been smoking, but I wish you'd give us a hit off it.

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"

God is the conceptualized concoction of mundane confusion colluding with fallible comfort.
Consciousness not to be confused for god.

There is plenty of reminders and proofs of God in his holy books, the one who by his name we ask one another through, God is the light of the heavens and the earth.

Mystic Knight has gone full on "bye-bye" at this point it seems.
From what I've read on the forum, MK did you have a "crisis of faith" at one point? If so, can I ask what that was about?

I inclined to the evil tree and gave irrational thoughts too much weight and made up problems about God in my head.

Ok, can you tell me what that was without being all "shrouded in mystery"? For example, what problems did you make up about 'God' ?

There is plenty of reminders and proofs of God in his holy books, the one who by his name we ask one another through, God is the light of the heavens and the earth.
There are plenty of reminders and proofs of Erú Ilúvatar in his holy books, the one who by his name we ask one another through, Erú is the light of the heavens and the earth.
There was Erú, the One, who in Arda is called Ilúvatar; and he made first the Ainur, the Holy Ones, that were the offspring of his thought, and they were with him before aught else was made. And he spoke to them, propounding to them themes of music; and they sang before him, and he was glad. But for a long while they sang only each alone, or but a few together, while the rest hearkened; for each comprehended only that part of the mind of Ilúvatar from which he came, and in the understanding of their brethren they grew but slowly. Yet ever as they listened they came to deeper understanding, and increased in unison and harmony. (The Silmarillion: Ainulindalë 1:1)
