<i. How do you know its God and not an evil force tricking you?

Know? I don't. Any more than I know that rock is solid, that water is liquid, that sunlight is warm, or that my wife loves me. My knowledge is limited to what I think I know from what I experience. I could be deluded about all of the above. But until something comes along to persuade me that I am, I will continue to believe that (at appropriate temperatures) rock is solid, water is liquid, sunlight is warm, my wife loves me, and what I experience as god is not an evil force tricking me.
