The only right way

Many fall into confusion and dispute, and so remain unbelievers. They say they want clear proof: to see with their own eyes, or to hear, or to see in a dream.

We need to realize that God is the true perfection. He grants us this favor — the opportunity to become righteous, to become part of God's shining, chosen people. Because of His perfection, the Creator should not forgive us if we see a clear, obvious sign, a vision (given to a chosen few out of many billions of people), and only then believe. Man is the image of God, so he must not doubt his Creator and must earn this definition.

We must first believe, and then perhaps we will see the signs, see them only because of our faith. Faith is primary, then understanding the signs around you. Only in this way can righteousness be imputed to you according to your faith. So you will not grieve God.

The Bible also says that you must not make up or dream up (this is a sin) that you have seen something from God. Do not invent predestination without absolutely clear evidence, and do not exalt yourself.

You have to see directly and realistically: if it's a vision, it's clear and real, if it's a dream, it's as clear as reality, and so on. Everything that is of God comes true and is manifest, otherwise it is not of God. "God's judgments and His ways past finding out!" (the Bible), and perhaps after a clear sign someone will believe and be forgiven.

But according to the Scriptures, you should not even think about it, there is a heavy penalty for it. One should only dream and desire to strengthen one's faith, but to desire an apparition, a vision is a great sin. Do not tempt the Almighty.

Only in ancient times did the righteous chosen by God receive the highest reward in this world — great faith and mercy from the Creator in a good, real appearance to man (through an angel or a prophet). Such people were just as faithful and unshakable in their faith even in the absence of such an appearance.

There is no sinless person on earth, but man can and should strive to be one. Therefore, all man has to do is fear God and be humble in the circumstances of life. All that is in a man's power at any time in his life is to repent and ask for forgiveness and mercy from the Most High, and that will lead to the best. To believe in simplicity and humility, not to ask for anything, and not to be tempted by the desire for a vision. Study the Holy Scriptures carefully and do not fall into temptation. Then you can be happy.

Many people think that if they saw it, they would believe it.

There have been signs before, but people did not believe.

Jesus Christ did many miracles, but people always found excuses and did not believe. They either said that there was a demon in Him or that He was a friend of sinners. There have been many miracles in history, people have been tested, but only the elect have believed, and that is why we do not see obvious miracles in our time.

The Holy Qur'an says: "Signs are only with Allah. What will make you [believers] realize that even if a sign were to come to them, they still would not believe?"; "Even if We had sent them the angels, made the dead speak to them, and assembled before their own eyes every sign [they demanded], they still would not have believed-unless Allah so willed."

Many said they would believe if they saw, but they did not. Open the heavens to an unbeliever, and he will say that it is witchcraft.

The words of the great Holy Books describe as accurately as possible the essence of the answer to every question.

Every soul will receive what it seeks.

Dream world

Based on all the information I have studied and considered, I see that our present world and our stay in it were created to purify us human beings, just as one purifies a precious metal so that the ingot becomes homogeneous. We are sinful from the beginning. Perhaps God intended for us to be tested by this sinful life, to be purified by our efforts to overcome sin and to be honored as one with God's world in Paradise. God is unreachably great, and when I write about a whole, I mean a world where all are reunited through the Holy Spirit, where all are equal. This is the next eternal life after the resurrection.

Holiness is one for all. We human beings are infinitely insignificant before God and even before the saints, but this does not prevent us from entering the Kingdom of God. That is, to become one with the infinitely great. This shows that everyone should try, and he will be rewarded according to his efforts and endeavors, compared to his opportunities and difficulties.

And our real life is the litmus test of whether we become part of the whole or go to the trash.

The Scriptures

The Scriptures are unquestionable. Let us think about it. There is a God — it is an axiom, an obvious and logically provable fact. The truth is in Him alone. This is where all reasoning and guidance to the true path begins.
