Some people, like scientists and atheists, need empirical evidence. Others have experiences they attribute to God. Others (without experiences) believe in the experiences of those who claim they had experiences.... In the End, I believe we will have empirical evidence.
The answer to your question, is Yes, we need evidence to "prove" there is a God.

Romans says that God has revealed himself to man from the beginning of time. It is then up to the individual to weigh the evidence before them and take a step of faith in order to experience personal revelation.

I would prefer that theists say 'empirical evidence is besides the point. My belief is my belief.' It's when they try to drag their beliefs into the realm of science and logic that they're doomed to fail. I don't believe in their private revelations, but I can respect that they believe in them.

Sorry, isolated eyewitness accounts and anecdotal evidence do not constitute proof. Private revelation may be enough to convince an individual, but they carry no evidential weight for those who have not had similar experiences.

faith on my own works merely to boot with the different magical creature. There should be a "reason" and not in any respect merely because you sense like it if you attempt to be rational. the following is a competent celebration, we've not in any respect got here upon alien existence, yet existence on the planet is data that existence can exist in this universe. This piece of information isn't data that different existence does certainly exist, even though it provides us a rational reason to suspect it does. even as technically i don't believe of there is this variety of information for some thing supernatural, such as Gods, yet that would not end believers from attempting to apply what they % out to be data. which signifies that they don't opt to in ordinary words take it on faith, in addition they choose a rational reason to believe their particular God is real. I evaluate this a competent element, otherwise they could quite be blind sheep that merely persist with and not in any respect question.

NOOOOOOOOOO.
God DOESN'T WANT TO BE PROVEN. He wants us to HAVE FAITH and accept Him through our lives and Hearts through our Faith. Faith is the belief in things "unseen" so if we prove God exists we would have no reason for faith and therefore our worship while based on FACT would not be as "desirable" in Gods eyes. He wants us to look at the shape of the trees, blades of grass, the sea and stars and the math and music we hear and see him in all of it. We NEED FAITH not proof. If your heart is right then you'll believe, if not then you'll never believe and God simply won't worry anymore about you than you do Him : )
