Lots of time the answer is “no”.
Yeah, but John 14:13 is pretty specific. There is a certain amount of commentary about it applying to things we truly need, but even so, if it is asked sincerely in Jesus’ name, it is something that God purportedly wants (me being Christian) and my be totally open to proof of God’s existence, I don’t see where “no” is an answer in keeping with the verse.
God creating me as I am, born into a non-believing family in a secular society and then not providing evidence of his existence and condemning me to eternal suffering, seems odd.
