The BEGINNING
of ALL KNOWLEDGE:
Proverbs 1:7
King James Version
7 The fear of the Lord
is the beginning
of knowledge:
but fools despise wisdom
and instruction.
Which came first?
The chicken?
Or the egg?
GOD.
Oh.
How can it not be God?
Hello...
Without God, there won't be a chicken, or an egg.
Ah.
So, stop those trick questions.
But I know you want proof.
Sigh.
So, let SCRIPTURE tell you GOD's TRUTH.
That HE is TRUTH.
Never again will you wonder, why IN GOD, we MUST TRUST.
Let's start with the "fowl", so we won't foul this up.
Genesis 1:20-22
King James Version
20 And God said,
Let the waters bring forth abundantly
the moving creature that hath life,
and fowl that may fly above the earth
in the open firmament of heaven.
21 And God created great whales,
and every living creature that moveth,
which the waters brought forth abundantly,
after their kind,
and every winged fowl after his kind:
and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed them,
saying,
Be fruitful,
and multiply,
and fill the waters in the seas,
and let fowl multiply in the earth.
How to know TRUTH?
Know the SOURCE.
How reliable is it?
How do you know it's reliable?
Man can't tell things apart.
Only the SPIRIT of GOD can.
Only by being a true born again, and sealed by the HOLY SPIRIT, can man have that spiritual discernment.
You do need proof that GOD is TRUE, right?
But first, KNOW this about SCRIPTURE:
2 Timothy 3:16-17
King James Version
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof,
for correction,
for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect,
thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
SCRIPTURE is my SOURCE, for ALL THINGS GOD.
The SPIRIT of GOD led me to His BOOK, that all lies may be trashed, once, and for all.
Numbers 23:19
King James Version
19 God is not a man,
that he should lie;
neither the son of man,
that he should repent:
hath he said,
and shall he not do it?
or hath he spoken,
and shall he not make it good?
1 Samuel 15:29
King James Version

thou art God.

yea,
seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look,

and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations,
feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies,
and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Isaiah 55:11

out of my mouth:

but it shall accomplish that which I please,

that was made.

Verily, verily,
I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water

that they have a zeal of God,

for righteousness
to every one that believeth.

who have fled for refuge
to lay hold upon the hope
set before us:
