how can we "see" God?

how can we "see" God?
we have any kind of food with any kind of taste. we have any kind of drink with any kind of taste. we have any kind of material to build and make anything we want, the world is the place to be. evolution couldn't do this. bible quote: "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:" (Matthew 7:7). this is not the kingdom of God. believe in the magic soup of darwin (satan), believe in the frog which became a prince, believe in satan. (bad advice). even if you see God, nothing can make you believe that He is God, nothing can make you believe His law, only faith can do that. how did Lord Jesus anticipate His success, the success of christianity? simple, He knows God, and He is the Son of God.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. (Revelation 1:8)

illogical atheism:
who made christianity and why? who made the old testament and why? you don't believe in Lord Jesus, so someone lied and made the new testament for an evil reason, according to your opinion. those who lied, they believed in evolution? or other gods? because God and evolution are the only solutions that explain our existence. so there is this possibility, some ancient men believed in evolution but they hid that until darwin bringing to the public, so darwin ruins their plan and you the same, to be liars forever because we die, they can't enjoy of "masterplan", makes perfect sense, the irony. the old testament could be made for the same reason or made by lunatics. again, this makes perfect sense, irony again. in conclusion, darwin was an outlaw, ancient men believed in evolution, or other gods and they lied to us, making us believe in Lord Jesus. perfect sense (irony).

In my current understanding the answer is.
To see and understand God, human beings must cultivate their mind and body to become purified, and no longer clinging to this physical world.

Faith in my understanding is only what is needed in the beginning of the Cultivation. When wisdom arise from within, then the wisdom eye open and the cultivator will both see and understand heavenly realm. But only after the cultivator has let go of every impurities within him/her.

:facepalm:


Atheism : disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.

Nothing more, nothing less

Considering there is no evidence for leprechauns, pink unicorns or gods, i rest my case on the logicality if atheism

Seriously bizarre. What do you think of other religions and other "holy" texts? What's so unbelievable about people simply not knowing about how we came to exist and some of them making up stories or simply being mistaken?

Humans have a tendency to see agency where there is none (Agent detection - Wikipedia).

Why decide upon the quantity of gods being exactly one?

because God and evolution are the only solutions that explain our existence
People have come up with plenty of stories to "explain our existence." Not just "God" and evolution. The rest of your last paragraph doesn't make much sense, but the above false dichotomy caught my eye. Try branching out a little. Get out more. Do some reading besides your precious Bible and what the evolution-deniers of your "flock" produce for you to try and quell your doubts.

try to make a bible with sense. what were their beliefs?
Are you trying to say that the people who wrote the Bible didn't have any beliefs about God that appear on its pages? Do you imagine these people just fell into trances and the words just came out onto the pages though automatic, involuntary writing and speaking? Do you believe the Bible is a dictation?

How long have you studied the Bible for, and through whom? What resources? Is the Bible magical? Does it have special powers that makes it so you or anyone can just pick it up and conclude the same things you do? What of those who read it differently than you? Are they wrong and you right? If so, why? Because they are of Satan and you are not, because God loves you more than them?

there are many gods, only One says that:

11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. (Romans 14:11)
For those who follow the Christian God, yes.
But for those who Cultivate the teachings of other Gods or Buddhas are not supposed to bow to the Christian God.

Please. You think this is some difficult task you have assigned me? Are you really that sheltered?

Try Norse Mythology for one. So easy to look up the creation story of early Norse beliefs - I had only to Google it and had this in seconds:
The Internet said:
Before there was soil, or sky, or any green thing, there was only the gaping abyss of Ginnungagap. This chaos of perfect silence and darkness lay between the homeland of elemental fire, Muspelheim, and the homeland of elemental ice, Niflheim.

Frost from Niflheim and billowing flames from Muspelheim crept toward each other until they met in Ginnungagap. Amid the hissing and sputtering, the fire melted the ice, and the drops formed themselves into Ymir (“Screamer”[1]), the first of the godlike but destructive giants. Ymir was a hermaphrodite and could reproduce asexually; when he slept, more giants leapt forth from his legs and from the sweat of his armpits.

As the frost continued to melt, a cow, Audhumla (“Abundance of Humming”[2]), emerged from it. She nourished Ymir with her milk, and she, in turn, was nourished by salt-licks in the ice. Her licks slowly uncovered Buri (“Progenitor”[3]), the first of the Aesir tribe of gods. Buri had a son named Bor (“Son”[4]), who married Bestla (perhaps “Wife”[5]), the daughter of the giant Bolthorn (“Baleful Thorn”[6]). The half-god, half-giant children of Bor and Bestla were Odin, who became the chief of the Aesir gods, and his two brothers, Vili and Ve.

Odin and his brothers slew Ymir and set about constructing the world from his corpse. They fashioned the oceans from his blood, the soil from his skin and muscles, vegetation from his hair, clouds from his brains, and the sky from his skull. Four dwarves, corresponding to the four cardinal points, held Ymir’s skull aloft above the earth.

The gods eventually formed the first man and woman, Ask and Embla, from two tree trunks, and built a fence around their dwelling-place, Midgard, to protect them from the giants.
Expand the quote and see the bit in red. The world was fashioned out of Ymir's corpse. Have any more "difficult" assignments for me?
