okay, if you made something and somewhere along the line it kept saying to you you don't exist, how would that make you feel? How about if you loved that thing with more love than you can comprehend and something else was threatening to take it away and destroy it, what would you do? what if you could help the thing you loved so much from this destruction, would you try? that's why.

If God is the ultimate reality of creation, then it seems natural that all creation would naturally gravitate toward conceptualizing God. Outside of that, I don't honestly believe that God has any opinion whatsoever about whether he wants us to believe in him. Why would an infinite being bother with it?
Then again, unlike some people, I'll not make pretenses as to what God actually "thinks."

Faith is believing in things that aren't seen...but which are true. Those who believe in God have a personal belief by which the live their lives. Those who do not believe in God have scientific data to shape their lives. In the end…if faith is wrong and we are just accidental organisms living on a rock floating through space…then the faithful lose nothing. Consider this: if the faith of those who believe in God is correct…and we are truly children of a loving deity that wants us to be happy in life and return to Him one day…then those who refused to exercise faith in Him lose everything.
Which way to go: the win/win or the wasted gamble?

So that we might know the true identity of ourselves. You are God in that God is you. God does not suffer, God is unbound by time, space and the physical. You can achieve that state of being. Ask him to show you what this means and as the answers come accept their merit based in this question to yourself: Is this an answer based in non-judgmental love? If it is, accept it and continue asking more questions - you've got a lot to learn. If it is not, dismiss it and ask again.

it is really exciting. Muslims have similar arguments hostile to the Bible as well. even even with the undeniable fact that we trust a number of it to contain revelation from God, we even trust it really is replete with guy-made blunders. opposite to the Bible, really the recent testomony, the Qur'an became printed to the Prophet Muhammad and the Prophet Muhammad taught the Qur'an to others. Non-Muslims would dispute no matter if the Qur'an is the recognize God yet a minimum of our scripture is undamaged and right now from Prophet Muhammad. On an exciting be conscious, Muslims do trust that Jesus had an unwritten scripture with him from God which he taught from even with the undeniable fact that it is not the Bible all of us understand immediately. really, the Bible (New testomony) is a collaboration of reports written about Jesus through different men, many who in no way met him. Worse than that, the decision of what's going to be seen the Bible became determined through a council prepare through Constantine. Over three hundred hundred "gospels" were into consideration and the council picked 4 out of the three hundred hundred to be "the recognize God". in my opinion, Christianity is incorrect because it really is in accordance to incorrect scripture. I advise no offense through this yet many those who settle for the Bible as 100% the recognize God are denying historic truth and therefore the truth.

Because faith in God is faith in humanity. God is in all of us. If we show eachother love, we show God love. God also want us to be close to God and have a relationship with God (also called Grace). How can we know love when we don't know God. God is love.

It seems a natural inclination for a father to show interest in his son ....and vice versa.
We are made in God's image, therefore He must think that way too.

The goddess doesn't want your love she just wants you to stand on your own two feet and quit blaming others for your sins
