in what way does scripture clarify? how can you verify that the scripture is full of anything but legends voted upon by a committee?
then i am doomed, i want to have faith because apparently that is my only requirement but even you agree i cannot will myself to believe so i am then doomed from birth to hell, i wouldn't have made this thread if i thought it wasn't worth trying for, is god that big of a jerk really?
yes

I think the evidence points to Jesus of Nazareth existing, dying, and rising from the dead. He claimed to be God, and I think scripture makes clear that He was God. There's numerous other paths that you can go down to explain God.
The fact remains though... faith is a gift from God Himself. You can't will yourself into believing.
Jesus may have lived, but evidence of the supernatural? Non, stories are not evidence.

...no , you don't . You can't even fool the human believers here so imagine how impossible it is to fool God .
Your taking his Words out of content and totally missing the point.
