evidence

when you go to court, who do you present the evidence to?

the judge...

when you present evidence of God's existence to unbelievers you elevate them to the position of judge and put God on trial...

according to scripture, the unbeliever already knows in their heart that God exists, they are just suppressing the truth in unrighteousness. (Romans 1:18-20)

our job in defending the faith is to not to join them in their folly (by arguing evidence according to their rules), but instead to demonstrate the foolishness of their folly (Proverbs 26:4-5, 23:9, 29:9; Matthew 7:6 )


the place for evidence is to give evidence to believers to help them build their trust of scripture
