> How can I know if He is real
You can’t ever know for sure. That’s why it’s called faith and not fact. Faith is something you believe because you trust that someone is not lying to you. It’s not something you can scientifically verify.
Jesus said to Thomas, “You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe” or something like that.
Honestly, there is no downside to believing. Even if God doesn’t exist, reading Scripture still teaches you a lot of helpful things.
