Book excerpt: Gods existence is conspicuous as a result of His creation and the history in the Bible of the blessings and punishment received by His people from the time of the Garden of Eden to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ to provide redemption. Therefore, the most important thing in life is faith in God, which leads to hope, love, and obedience in Gods Word, the Bible. Christians understand God by his creation and His willingness to sustain human life. God clearly reveals himself and His creation in the inspired account of the Bible. God welcomes people to establish a relationship of faith in Him in order to avoid the consequences of sin. The authenticity of the Bible was established many years ago, and the people of every generation, since its completion, believe it is a divinely inspired book.
