Well if you base the Bible as truth and judge from that staring place it will help.
Yes indeed.

Without a ruler, you would simply be left with making-it-up as you go along, and your measurements would be perfectly idiotic.

If someone told you that they were married for 20 years and never had a disagreement with their wife, then would you believe them? As part of being in a relationship with God, we need to question things in order for our faith to grow.

With the proliferation of all sorts of atheist and naturalistic propaganda, it's sometimes tough to maintain a Christian worldview. The books "Benefit of the Doubt," "Sin of Certainty" and "Love Your God with All Your Mind" helped me immensely, as did the youtube channels whaddoyoumeme and InspiringPhilosophy. Sounds odd, but like the posted above stated, question your questions. Sometimes you'll discover that you made faulty assumptions and questioning your understanding is a vital element in the search of truth.

It's fine to question everything.

1 Peter 3:15
But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,

But at some point you embrace the inclinations on what you believe. Faith isn't inherently blind - it can be a product of logic and reason. But it's generally based on evidence and perception rather than fact.

How do I go about this position in my life?
What do you mean you are questioning everything?
There is nothing wrong with having doubts or questions about Christianity. You will get in trouble if you are questioning atheism or evolution as that is not allowed.

That said are you prepared for answers?
How tough or intellectual do you want the answers?
Starting at the top start reading the reasonable faith web site. It is very logical.
Or check out wintery knight and use the search function to find articles on your doubts and questions.

Check out wiki on Sir William Mitchel Ramsay he wrote about Luke's books in the Bible he is always accurate. You have questions about the accuracy of the Bible? Here is a man who has checked it ou and tells you Like wrote the absolute truth.
Try answersingenesis, yes a creation site.
Don't faint they stand by the accuracy of scripture and have many articles on issues about Christianity that are easy to read and understand.
Coldcasechristianity is another good site that will demonstrate the reliability of the Bible.

A word of advise. It is good question things, but you also have to believe the answers.

A great many very clever people have had questions about the Bible, Christianity and I mean very clever people.
They have asked hard questions, examined the evidence and have come to the conclusion that the Bible is accurate, reliable, that Jesus did live, die and be raised to life etc etc et .

Are you prepared to look at the evidence and to believe it?
