You can't prove faith,only believe in your heart and know..I come so that any who believe will be saved..It comes down to it, man either accepts the things of the Lord or dies in his sins. I come so no one has to go to a place of torment.We as Christians, arn't trying to make you hate us, we love you thats why we tell you all of this. I choose to step out on my faith and believe all men can be saved.

Yep FAITH. "Without faith it is impossible to please God." Thanks kindness - That is how I know I'm saved - Holy Spirit within me. God is so good. Thanks for your kindness.

I would say because you have faith, God sent His proof. His proof is in the form of the Holy Spirit that shows you/us believers the truth of His Word and guides us on a path of righteousness. That is our proof. The Holy Spirit is in us and we feel Him and know it is truth.
I agree, I'm not trying to have unbelievers hate me. I do love them and want unbelievers with all my heart to feel, see, know, and understand what God has shown me. I'm sorry I have been more forceful at times with my answers then I know I should have. At the same time, I'm not going to compromise my beliefs and what I know as truth just so as not to offend someone.
The problem with telling an unbeliever about the free gift of salvation is they can't feel what we feel. It takes faith first. You can describe how it feels to have God in your life, but a person can't truly know until they have the proof for themselves. That proof is the Holy Spirit, which resides in a believer. That comes only as a result of believing and having faith in Christ, first.

I agree with everything you said.
There is one thing i would like to say though: Modern atheists grew up in an age where everything is proven; guilt is proven in court, science is proven, everything the see is proven. But god isn't proven to them because there isn't evidence that screams: "there is god", there is only tons of evidence that subtly whispers "there is god" These people want evidence that screams there is god, but we can't give them any evidence that shouts it loud enough for them, because they won't listen, if they listened with an open mind and heart, they would know that there is god, and there is evidence to support it:
one piece of evidence is we exist. This is evidence because evolution has flaws, such as the first single celled organism couldn't have have just happened by itself, it is far too complicated and the chemicals couldn't have come together in the perfect way because there are far too many chemicals (millions of different chemicals) that need to be in the right place at the right time to make that cell. It couldn't have happened without help. So either creation or guided evolution (quided evolution is the theory that god took all those chemicals and put them in the right place at the right time to form the cell, then he quided the evolution to create us and all other animal life) are right. If guided evolution or creation is right, then god exists, so god exists.
There is also the fact that the laws of physics work beautifully, perfectly. There has to be a higher power of some sort for everything to work out so nicely. That even convinced Einstein to beleive in god
There is also things like the bible, which are records of gods commands etc. to the people of earth. There are records of miracles and god doing amazing things in the bible, and i doubt that people would make all of that up, because too many people saw these things, if they were lies then someone would have said domething about it when they were written.

if I understand that you believe this then I must ask to whom do you need to prove anything. Our Biblical orders are to witness, that does not include persuading or defending God can take care of these by Himself and indeed already has. By persuading or defending you make yourself look weak as if you are not sure of yourself. If you actually feel defensive then you do not know God. Pray for assurance and forget the unbeliever. To unbelievers ;et your life be the witness. Answer only the questions of the seeker not the mocker, tell people about Jesus when you meet them in passing and you need neither persuade or defend.It is the Holy Spirit that draws people noy you, You are just a messenger to those who are expecting a message and are therefor looking for that message.

proof for what? That everybody who doesn't believe will die in their sins? (the only statement I can find in your question). Given the actions of many christians I don't think they die without sin either.
And what about people who believe just as fervently in a different religion? If faith is your proof it's theirs too. No extra rules for you, sorry. Do we count then numbers of believers and who has most is right?

I agree 100%. It is all just as you say.Man either believes or chooses not to believe,therefore sealing their own fates.It's just as simple as that.I believe as you do that everyone could be saved if they would only open their eyes to the truth,but we know that isnt going to happen.Many will continue to harden their hearts against God thus tragically losing the free gift of Salvation and eternal life.And,for Christians,that is a hard pill to swallow,because we do love all as Jesus loved us,and we are not here to shove Jesus down anyone's throat.We are simply here to help bring truth and understanding to those who will accept it.We do this all by faith.

you cant prove faith and faith is your proof? LMAO
Thats real clever.
Sorry if you are young. But if you are old enough you should know better.
Please think about what you are trying to say so it will be clear for us. You may have some truth to impart, but if you cant communicate it well, it makes it harder to understand and receive.

Good for you. Do you feel better now that you got to play God for a few minutes?
Faith is proof of nothing other than faith.

Faith isn't proof...
Here's what I mean, I have faith that the sun will turn blue today. I believe this will happen because I've seen it in hundreds of pictures in my life...
Guess what will happen?

I disagree, faith is the antithesis of proof. Having faith means almost assuredly never getting any proof.

First you say "faith is my proof" and then in the next sentence say "you can't prove faith".
Come on, are you really this stupid? Or are you so brainwashed that you can't think for yourself?
Do you need to get your answers from an outdated book of bronze age jewish mythology?
