Now in all honesty I do not believe in god and the devil, I am tormented with the evil that man inflects on other men in the name of there presumed god. With this understanding I ask these questions, and pose these answers. I am not god, nor do I speack for him, this is meant as a call to reason to all men that would be free of religious oppression, it is sad that a slave loves his chains, and boasts of the ring in his nose.
These questions are interrelated, if you ask one it leads to the others.
Is God revealed only through “ Gods imparted faith?
Is man hopelessly lost with out god revealing himself to man?
Can a man read the bible and believe in god but because god has not revealed himself to that man, that man remains lost?
Is faith, “faith” in the presence of proof?
Is the bible faith’s “proof”?
Can the bible be misinterpreted?
If man can not tell the difference between Satan and god in the absence of godly revelation, and faith often is the result of religious indoctrination, the measuring stick of mans observance, how can man clearly see, with faith or reason, his status with a god that can only be understood in the context what god ascribes to his personal visitations.
There are many way to describe faith. There are many reasons to want faith, but faith in the abstains of a visitation form god is little more than wishful thinking and ritual social group think. To describe any written work that was not passed from god to you directly is subject to misinterpretation.

god teach us to fear him is to love him, and offer hell as a punishment when men can’t do anything to avoid it themselves It seems mean and evil and something Satan would do.
