Everyone does indeed have trust is something, however that trust is built on a past track record and not faith, faith is a belief,to give you an example.....Two people you know very well asks you to loan them something which is valuable to you, one of them is very reliable, always returns promptly and never gives you any hassle, the other never returns anything, always gives you headache and hassle. Which one of those friends would you have the most faith in? or should I say trust?
Let us not confuse trust with faith or belief.
However I do agree to some extend that there is a battle between good and bad over the control of man, although "God", "Creation" is not in this battle, it is man's own battle to overcome should we decide to wake up.
Regarding Christianity and it being the truth. if I was to lock yourself a Muslim and a Jew in a room to discuss the truth for 365 days, on the 366th day I returned and opened the door, the 3 versions of truth will come out the same as it went in, because it's nothing more than your opinion of what you think the truth is.
So what is the difference between you and I? I would never be naive or arrogant to say that I have access to God whilst insinuating that you don't. Like the ancient Babylonians would slaughter a sheep on a moonlit night and remove its liver, if it was in good condition it boded well for the coming year, they had access to God also, didn't they? Like a certain ancient sect of Rabbi's (moy, I think) who circumcised infants and removed the tip with their mouths and spat it out, they had access to God also, didn't they?
You either know or you don't know, in my case I know what it is not.
The world's full of them..... and you know it!
