That was a pretty long question just for a Pascal's Wager.

I understand faith. I just do not practice it. And, the "faith is so much more" part of your question is true to you, and those who believe as you do.
Also, most of the questions asked in this section are philosophy/ belief based questions. There really are no right or wrong answers, just differing interpretations, beliefs, and opinions.
Given the style of writing in your post, I would assume you are fairly young and naive to the ways of the world. I hope you learn to read other books, learn about other cultures, and start deciding how you believe for yourself. And, no, subscribing to the religion you were raised to follow without exploring every other option is not "deciding for yourself". It is regurgitating what everyone has told you to think and believe.

Anyone know why people's avatars don't show up sometimes. Mine does that every once in a while. Just wondered.

Sweet Jesus....
1. This isn't a question because you answered it yourself.
2. Get a grip.
3. Lots of people believe in God / gods.... they just don't believe in yours.
4. Read #2 again.
5. Stop using the end times as an excuse to be obnoxious. Prosetylization is rude, rude, rude. But! You don't have to worry about manners or accept resposibility for your selfishness... because the SKY IS FALLING!!.... or it will... SOON...
.... SOOOOOOON........

Do you think it's a bit odd that your God hasn't showed his face in over 2000 years?
Where is he?
He use to speak to people all the time according to your bible.. so why did he stop?
If he really cared why do we have to rely on faint?
All you just said doesn't even matter you know why? because you will never know... in your life time when you die you will not even know you died. But thank you for the tips...

This isn't a question but an attempt to convert the heathen. You can't convert people once they've already made up their mind, so don't bother wasting your time. Some of the people who Jesus preached to weren't interested, so he moved and and instead preached to people who did want to listen and convert.
Now, of the Son of God can't change people's minds, what makes you think that you can? Leave the atheists alone and instead try to serve the Lord another way, like volunteering at a soup kitchen or doing a charity walk.

I think the gospel is meant to be preached with some supernatural witness, e.g. miracles and signs.
Faith is required, but Jesus and the Early church did miracles as well. Its not passed away because people like Smith Wigglesworth did 100s of miracles.

I understand religion, faith, and belief in god far better than you ever will, troll.
Most believers here don't seem to understand to know even the first thing about religion, and you certainly haven't done anything to make anyone think that you're any different.

Knock it off.
I've seen alot of things supernatural. I believe in ghosts because I've seen them. I also have precognitive visions. That doesn't automatically default to a gods existance. That just means its stuff that science hasn't yet explained.
You Christians are really desperately stretching.

Most people don't believe in God or Jesus until they are in a life or death situation and they beg God for help. This would be great if they followed through and really stuck with their promises made at that time. Non-believers are always so rude and their comments are unfriendly. It seems like they can't just accept someone being different and happy, they have to always try and down-grade everyone else. I will keep all of you in my prayers.

I have heard of atheisits who have turned to God, because they by the drawing and wooing of the Holy Spriit, somehow get the revelation of God. Just looking at nature, how beautiful it is, is awesome! There is order in life (sometimes it may not seem like it) from the tiniest live microbe, to the largest part of our universe! Take care.
