I'm not trying to imply that there are no reason for being a theist.
And I think we've discussed often enough atheist's reason for being an atheist. However I'd be happy to explain for myself why.
I'm just curious what folks feel justifies their theism. What knowledge a person personally has to justify a belief in God.
I'm a Calvinist.
I was picked by the Father from before the foundation of the universe.
I knew the Lord from when i was still in the womb.
Solar and lunar eclipses can only happen 14 days apart.
"The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood BEFORE the great and terrible day of the Lord.
"immediately AFTER the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give it's light.
Try counting the days in between:
(O)14(o) <-------AND-------> (O)14(o),
You will come up with numbers that look like these:
(O)14(o) <------------1588------------> (O)14(o)
(O)14(o) <----------1550----------> (O)14(o)
(O)14(o) <---------1372---------> (O)14(o)
(O)14(o) <--------1209--------> (O)14(o)
(O)14(o) <------1195------> (O)14(o)
I guess in God's economy of Biblical numbers, it's possible that the 18 prophetic time periods from His Holy Word could coincidentally compare with other specifications of items that He also created like: the Sun, the Earth and the Moon.
It could still be called a coincidence that this 1372 day slot in the solar and lunar cycle seems to line up so well with numbers written in the book of Daniel 2600 years ago.

"But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,
Peaceful rest of the Sabbath.
