There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

Well their first hand accounts and the message of the Gospel actually does happen to a person when they receive Eternal Life through Jesus Christ. If I didn’t I wouldn’t be saying it did, I’d still be a drug addict, be dead, in jail or some institution. But what happened is that I was born again and that is no pipe dream, myth or fantasy.

“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life— the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us— that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.”
‭‭I John‬ ‭1:1-4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

What makes you think that the Gospels are "first hand accounts"?

Backwards again. Archaeologists have known that the Exodus story was myth since the 19th century.

There are times that the lack of evidence is evidence against. They have found evidence of much smaller and older migrations but there is no evidence of the migration from Egypt. It never happened.

The Pentateuch was largely written during the Babylonian exile. But don't trust me, trust your fellow Christians:

When was Genesis Written and Why Does it Matter? - Articles

The title mentions Genesis, but the article is about the entire Pentateuch.

I would recommend that you do not bet your life on it the next time that you come to a cliff.

But do you know how you become rich and famous in the world of science? It is not by agreeing with everyone else. It is by showing that almost everyone else was wrong. Here is your chance.

Where’s the myth part? I don’t know any believers who don’t believe the Exodus happened just as it’s written in Scripture. Unbelievers do probably because they’re easily fooled.

You are a member of a rather extreme, almost cult, it sounds like. There is no doubt among those that have studied the matter. Did you not check out the Christian link that I provided?
