Is this a question that even needs answering? Let me ask say if you were trying to become a professional journalist would you place your trust in someone who actually started journalism or someone who has only been doing it a few years or so. If most of you are like me you would pick the veteran am I right? God is the one who created all man so why put more trust in man when you can put it in the one who created man. You know some may place more trust in man because they feel the need to be able to see who they are putting their trust in to make them feel more safe.
Me myself I put my trust in God over man any day, because even though I cannot see my creator, I know that he is watching over me that he is in my soul. I would rather have the glory of having God in my soul than having the trust of man. Some may more of a sense of security with man rather than God. They may ask themselves if God is such a great and powerful spirit why is there so many evil things going on in the world today. Some may ask why does he make all these disastrous things to happen. What people have to realize is there is a huge difference between allowing something to happen and causing it to happen. Yes, God may allow many things to happen but he is not the reason they happen. For example say if your raising a kid and you tell them all the right things in life, teach them to be a good kid. If they go out and murder somebody, is that your fault or did they go out and do that on their own? I feel thats how God looks at it he gives us instruction within the word the Bible and it depends on us whether or not we want to follow the course that he has set forth.
Also ask yourself what person in this world would let their son die in order to save an entire race from sin. That alone gives me enough reason to put my trust in God because to sacrifice something so special as your only son is the most life changing things. I also put trust in God because if you read the Bible it tells of how the end of this system of things is going to come and are they not happening now. Country against country, earthquakes, food shortages, all these things are happening just as the Bible predicts it would. God is the one my trust goes to because i would rather give my trust to someone, who is pure, clean, and holy rather to give to someone who is capable of committing murder and sin.
When I pray sure my prayers may not happen right away but as time goes by they are slowly answered, which builds my faith with him. No human being can ever compare with God thats why i feel this debate is irrelevant anyone who believes in God should be able to say that they put more trust in God rather than man. Man has been killing, stealing, and raping each other for hundreds of years and your telling me that you wouldn't rather put your trust in God someone who is incapable of sinning.
God is my creator he is my father, without him man wouldn't exist, cant no one tell me that we just popped up out of nowhere or evolved from a monkey. Scientists still cant prove that theory and cant find any traces of how man came to be. Those reasons right there also help to strengthen my decision that my trust is with God it made the earth for man to dwell upon. With that being said i believe he is the one to make this world a better place humans will forever commit sin until the day the Lord decides for it to stop.
