I see a lot of questions asking for proof of God, or why should I believe? or show me som'n.
This makes me think - we'll they just dont have faith - WRONG!
Then I ask myself - do they love?
Love is faith.
If one can feel and "know" love, then they have faith.
Can you prove love? - no
But it doesnt make it any less real or factual.
If one has love then they have hope.
With hope comes faith.
One has to have a hope in the person they are giving their love to. A hope that they wont hurt them, a hope that they will love them back. This is like a developmental stage of faith, if you will.
This may help put the perspective of how people have a knowledge of God that they can't deny, just as sure as they can't deny the love they have for a family member or a spouse.
So when one asks for proof of God, it is a contradiction of something they already know that is familiar - but they gotta figure it out for themselves. Bible thumping dont work.
Love never faileth.

The Bible is sent from God to help you live a better life.
You follow the Bible (regardless if you believe) and you will have a better life with less anxiety and problems.
The Bible is the most read perfect tool for how to Live Life.
Now if you believe what you read in John 3:16 then you will go to heaven.

Would I show my face if you didn't believe in Me? It doesn't change the fact that I exist.
Love is an action verb, it cannot be proven without proving it through action first.
Do you see the wind? I see the effects but I still can't see the wind.
It's a mystery...
Prove me faith, everyone has it but most will deny it. I bet you have faith in your car getting you from A to B, but I doubt you can prove that to me.

Very,good I like this one,so who ever wants proof your not going to get it.if the bible is not good enough,then you are not going to make through judgment day.may you all find the real truth and except it in your hearts and have faith in GOD and Jesus Christ who paid the ransom for all of us.and pray the you have the real knowledge of our true God,that soon will come and contain Satan the ruler of this wicked system of things.

dont quite follow the logic but do kind of understand-asking someone to prove a belief is just an unrealistic question-by its definition a belief cant be proven-if it could it wouldnt be a belief anymore-ditto for asking proof that its wrong-keep the peace lots of love old hippie

No. It's different because people CAN prove love to one another. You can't prove god to someone though.
