Wager without hesitation,

Wager without hesitation
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” 
                                                                       Genesis 1:1.
The Bible does not debate the existence of God. It was written to believers in God and as such debate is not needed.
Believers in God accept by faith His existence.
The writer of Hebrews tells us,
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for 
and 
certain of what we do not see.”  
                                              Hebrews 11:1
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, 
because anyone who comes to him
must believe that he exists 
and 
that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” 
                                                             Hebrews 11:6.
I know there are many people in the world that do not believe in God. That is their right. When God made mankind He did not make robots, He made individuals with a free will to believe act and do as they wish. That freedom extends to not believing in God.
As far as I am concerned God does exist. To say otherwise in my mind is foolishness for believing in God costs you nothing but in the long run offers great gain.
Blaise Pascal put it this way,
“Belief is a wise wager. Granted that faith cannot be proved, what harm will come to you if you gamble on its truth and it proves false? If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation, that He exists. Blaise Pascal.
Please think about it.
