If you cannot disprove the existence of God, or prove the existence of God

[Brettongarcia]

185. But 1) there is much in God that seems clearly outlined; things not so "mysterious"

As for example when Jesus is shown walking on water. And then we are promised "all" and "whatever" we "ask"; all the works that Jesus did, and "greater things than these." (John 14.11 ff). Here and in hundreds of parts of the Bible, God is for the moment not so mysterious; but is making large, clear, physical, material promises. Promises that can simply be tested ... and found true, or false.

Most importantly: the exact testing procedure moreover, is very, very clearly and unambiguously outlined in say, Dan. 1.4-15; 1 Kings 18.20-40; Mal. 3.10 ff. etc.

Indeed, 2) if God is so COMPLETELY "mysterious"? Then preachers and their sermons and commandments should be impossible to clearly make. And yet they are dogmatically proclaiming things constantly. For all the world as if indeed, though some things God does are "mysterious," many other things are not.

If God is so mysterious always, then preachers should never make any clear statements at all.

3) To be sure, you make an important point. Falsifiability is a great standard. Unfortunately, people who follow the Bible and nothing much else, won't pay much attention to it. For that reason, I write all my positions using biblical arguments, primarily; arguments that Bible Christians will listen too. Though this seems hopeless at first, and through counter-arguments seems endless? As it turns out some new inroads are being made even in this genre. By now we have hundreds of strictly biblical responses, to common Christian "biblical" apologetics.

Both approaches therefore remain useful.

Yes, there are hundreds, even thousands of apologetics responses. But we are answering them all today; collectively and individually too. In part, simply by noting the parts of the Bible they contradict.
