The Sock Nazi ? <| sep |> But the difference is Romans 120 says that God has revealed himself to everyone . Scarlette Johansson has also revealed herself to me and I know that she exists . That fact in no way means that I would know whether or not the shady guy was telling the truth . Just because someone knows that God exists that doesn ' t mean they know all the relevant facts about God . Even within Christianity there is debate about what you have to do to be saved . There are a myriad of different religions claiming contradictory things about what God wants from us and how to enter into a relationship with God . So , if Romans 120 extended to knowing all the relevant facts about God then you wouldn ' t have 43 , 000 different denominations of Christianity and you certainly wouldn ' t have such stark divisions within Christianity about things like the nature of Jesus , the requirements for salvation , and the fate of human souls . So , the scenario I outlined still holds true since , even if it was the case that everyone knew God existed , when it comes to what one needs to do to enter into a relationship with God and please God , you would still have to rely on documents written by human beings or the word of leaders of religious institutions which almost all have a history that involves no small measure of cruelty , deceitfulness , and corruption . So , just like it is the case with the man telling me to get into the back of his van , I don ' t trust the word of ancient copies of copies of translations of copies written by men or the word of religious leaders who tell me contradictory things based on their interpretations of said documents .
