What do Christians believe revelation proves?

  1. God's punishment on humans

  2. God's non-existence

  3. God's existence

  4. God's silence

The correct answer is: God's existence

Christians believe that revelation serves as a means through which God communicates with humanity, affirming His existence and nature. This belief is rooted in the understanding that revelation can take various forms—such as scriptures, visions, experiences, and the person of Jesus Christ—providing believers with insights into God's character, intentions, and the relationship He desires with humanity. This direct communication is seen as evidence of God's active role in the world, reassuring believers of His presence and existence. The other options do not align with Christian beliefs about revelation. The idea of God's punishment may be present in certain contexts, but it does not capture the essence of what revelation conveys. Claiming that revelation proves God's non-existence contradicts the fundamental assertions of Christian faith. Additionally, while the notion of God's silence can reflect feelings of abandonment or longing for divine communication, it does not align with the belief that revelation itself is a testament to God's existence and engagement with the world.
