I had to have faith in what the bible said FIRST before I saw any of these things. This encourages them to BELIEVE FIRST and then see, too.

And I've had the almost completely opposite experience. I've come to a place where God has proven His existence to me in ways that I can not explain away or argue with or deny any longer. After that, the Bible became less of an issue. There are still issues, and honestly may always be, but they're not what they were before.
