There are at least three questions the believer can expect to be asked about God.  I have been a Christian since I was 26 years old.  I am now 82.  So that is 56 years of hearing unbelievers voice their questions about God.  The following are questions the Scriptures recognize.

1.      Psalm 73:11-12 And they say, “How can God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?”  Behold, these are the wicked; always at ease, they increase in riches

Does God know?  In this Psalm the writer gives 3 reasons for the question.

Verse 3-Arrogancy  Verse 6-Pride   Verse12-Wickedness.

2.      Psalm 115:2-3   Why should the nations say,“Where is their God?” Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases.

Where is your God?

A.    The first reply is that God is exactly where He is supposed to be.  He is in Heaven on His throne.  Doing what His title, King of Creation, tells us.  He eternally does.

B.     But there is a second answer here.  Here in the heavens on His throne “He does all that He pleases.” Let this be duly considered by all, both believers and unbelievers who think He has any real opposition. cf Psalm 11:4.

3.      Psalm 78:19 They spoke against God, saying, “Can God spread a table in the wilderness?

Can God provide for us at our deepest time of need?

Can you believe that Jesus died for your sins and was raised for justification?  Is so, you are saved. 

Can you believe God created the heaven and the earth?  Can you believe in 2019 God can set up a table for you?  This is your test.  Not for salvation, but for bravery when the contest gets hot.  He can.
