David,
I'm impressed that you're searching for the truth as to who the one true
God is.
I believe in the God of the Bible. The Bible is an account of God's
effort throughout time to reconnect in relationship with mankind.
The Bible has some things in it which are historically contextual, that is,
they are written for a particular, specific culture in time. As a result,
when reading you have to factor in the culture, language, and history of the day
in which it was written. I encourage you to continue to search for the
truth in all this.
What do you believe now? Do you believe a God exists? Is he
distant?
personal? Could he be personal?
