No, there is:
1. The Creation, the visible universe.
2. The Written Word, the Bible.
3. The Indwelling Word, the Spirit of Truth.
The three together provide the evidence that God exists.
The Bible is critical because it was placed here to verify the indwelling Word and any spoken Word that is presented to the child of God.

One of the many evidences. The precision of and in the human body, Someone must've desgined it! It simply didn't evolve over millions of years. It has a perfect design, working excellent both independently and interdependently. Look at the seasons, the greenery, the waters, the life form, the galaxies. I mean just think about everything. Just look at everything. There MUST BE A DESIGNER. Someone Who knows what He is doing.
What's the biggest proof of a painter's existence? His picture, right? Same thing. Look around and see the picture, you will know about the existence of the Painter.
EVERYTHING SINGLE THING in this entire universe only has 2 sources of creation/invention.
1) Either God made it or,
2) Man made it.
In other words, everything that we as human being didn't make/create/invent, God did. Bible is just one of the 'exhibits' in the evidence for God.

No. Many people witnessed the events of the Bible, but only a few wrote it down. Others passed it by word of mouth for centuries (eventually confirming the writings). Many people in today's world have experienced the "presence of God" or the existence of the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately, too many people refuse to believe in what they cannot see. It is written that it is better to believe in the Lord without seeing.

The ONLY real evidence that God exists is the universe itself. Even if the existence of our universe is just some kind of accident, there still has to be some Supreme Being that makes it possible for such accidents to occur in the first place. All effects have a cause.

The Bible is referred to as "special" revelation by theologians. There is also "general" revelation which is found throughout the creation. Romans 1:20 is very clear on this:
"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."

Most churches show certain books, which they call revelation, or the word of God. The Jews say, that their word of God was given by God to Moses, face to face; the Christians say, that their word of God came by divine inspiration: and the Turks say, that their word of God (the Koran) was brought by an angel from Heaven. Each of those churches accuse the other of unbelief; and for my own part, I disbelieve them all. As it is necessary to affix right ideas to words, I will offer some other observations on the
word revelation. Revelation, when applied to religion, means something communicated immediately from God to man. No one will deny or dispute the power of the Almighty to make such a communication, if he pleases. But admitting, for the sake of a case, that something has been revealed to a certain person, and not revealed to any other person, it is revelation to that person only. When he tells it to a second person, a second to a third, a third to a fourth, and so on, it ceases to be a revelation to all those persons. It is revelation to the first person only, and hearsay to every other, and consequently they are not obliged to believe it. It is a contradiction in terms and ideas, to call anything a revelation that comes to us at second-hand, either verbally or in
writing. Revelation is necessarily limited to the first communication- after this, it is only an account of something which that person says was a revelation made to him; and though he may find himself obliged to believe it, it cannot be incumbent on me to believe it in the same manner; for it was not a revelation made to me, and I have only his word for it that it was made to him.
The bible is NOT evidence.

There is more. I do not seek it. Faith as I stated earlier today, is what separates the arrogant from the humbly servient, which is why God has not revealed Himself to us in two thousand years, but He is coming soon indeed. There will be no need for evidence at this time, so I do not waste my time with it now. Instead I try to do my best to spread the gospel to anyone who will hear it until Christ returns.

There is no 'actual evidence' that God exists. If you believe God exists, then it does.
