If you believe God exists, can you name the ONE thing that is most important in supporting that belief?

Question

"God" means a Supreme Being similar to or same as the one depicted in the Bible.

Answer 1

ME - Being Alive.

Without the faith & Prayers, i would have perished years ago.


Thanks to the good hearts which prayed for me, and Glory be to God.

Answer 2

I am just quoting two verses from Bible.

Zechariah 12:3
On that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her (Israel), I will make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nations. All who try to move it will injure themselves.

Revelations 11: 7-10

7Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them. 8Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city, which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. 9For three and a half days men from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial. 10The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.

Read these Bible verses bearing in mind the time these were written. The first verse around 300 BC and the second around 74 AD. The verse 8 says for three and half days the whole world will see their bodies. How true and believable they are today. What more you need to accept Bible?

In my life the most important thing that supports the existance of God is "myself"

I am not religious, but I am a spiritual person.

Answer 3

There are alot of things. For one 1Corinthians 6;9-19 is an excellent example of how God wil weed out the sinners of all kinds. 2nd if you read Ezekiel you will find a very close description of what is going on in the world right now. But my heart is the biggest supporter and I can not use tht to show you anything but the way to truth light and salvation. If God didn't exist then what happens when we die. That is it there is nothing. I do not believe that One last thing/ The Bilbe has been and still is used as a road map to almost evry archelogical dig ever done.

Answer 4

I find proof of God in the order of the universe, the way that the path of planets and other astrological items can be calculated and predicted speak to me of order, of the miraculous, and of design. I find proof of God in the beauty of a sunrise or a sunset. Nature is his signature. I find evidence in the conception and birth of a child. Scientists can tell us how conception takes place, what each item in the process does, and the resultant product. But, scientists cannot explain WHY conception happens and a life is created. I find proof of God in this.
If one would simply stop, look around and not have an agenda of "God does not exist", then his evidence will become more obvious. Too, I find it strange that seemingly more atheists (if that is what you all are) are so consumed with the concept of God than Christians are. You all seem to talk more about there not being a God than Christians do about God's existence.

Answer 5

It all depends on what you mean by "God." What I mean is "that reality which is worthy of the ultimate commitment of human beings." I feel justified in using the word "God" to describe this reality, since this word is indicative in western tradition of the object of ultimate commitment.

So from my perspective, God's reality is self-evident -- the question is not God's existence, but God's nature. Is God a personal being, or an impersonal reality, or a process? I lean towards the last option, being influenced by the liberal theologian Henry N. Wieman. I can empirically observe a process of creative interchange which creates all the values known by human beings. So it is to that process, rather than to any of the values created by it, that I give my ultimate commitment. But I see no evidence that "it" is a personal, conscious, purposive being.

Answer 6

You can FEEL that God exists. It's something which one cannot prove scientifically or explain with limited human intellectual capacity.

I myself personally see God in Nature - its intricate details and its everlasting beauty.

I understand people wonder where God is, especially with the state the world is in. Thing is, God wants people to believe before they see (not the other way around) and in our present consumerist culture, most people cannot manage this.

God is the Light. Take any dark room. It's filled with darkness. Take one little candle and immediately the darkness is broken - it's gone. Light will always triumph over darkness. Light is stronger than darkness. ...For me, something as simple as this illustrates that, yes, God does exist.

No proof needed - it's a soul thing, not a mind thing.

Answer 7

suitable off the bat, it isn't about heaven. a minimum of Christianity concerns a supernatural relationship/fellowship between the author and the created. This relationship is each and every thing; heaven is in simple terms an section to be with the author. Heaven isn't the benefits. You suggested, "if i'm said as under consideration in the subsequent existence i'd say I lived properly depending on the international i develop into put in, and that i acted to do what develop into suitable for the reason in elementary words that it develop into suitable, to make the international a extra perfect position ...". Your author isn't asking you to make the international a extra perfect position, he's asking in case you want a relationship with Him and your answer will be "no". If there is not any author, then there is not any such challenge as suitable and all of our thoughts about suitable and incorrect are in simple terms a blend of evolution and societal rigidity. So the "suitable causes" you communicate of include sense-good rewards and fears of punishment. The Christian idea is that our author has placed in our human nature the favor to understand Him and which could rigidity us to seek Him. yet deep in our hearts we do not favor all and sundry to whom we own allegiance and to whom we are responsible.

Answer 8

Hey JT. The concept for me is like this: You walk into a room and you see chairs. You know in the back of your mind that someone made those chairs, but you don't necessarily know exactly who. Still, you KNOW that someone made them. Same thing with our God. You gotta look around and see the beautiful skies, and how the sun is positioned just right, so that the world doesn't burn up and so that the world is not too cold. You gotta see how babies are made in a woman's womb. Man, you wake up each morning and breath whether you're a good man or a bad man. Wow. This is all proof for me that there is a God. And, as an icing on the cake, he answers my prayers. :o)

Answer 9

Not one but many!
In Bible times servants of God took a special interest in creation. According to 1 Kings 4:30, 33, “Solomon’s wisdom was vaster than the wisdom of all the Orientals . . . He would speak about the trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop that is coming forth on the wall; and he would speak about the beasts and about the flying creatures and about the moving things and about the fishes.”

Perhaps Solomon’s interest in the glories of creation was partly due to his father’s example. David, who spent many of his formative years as a shepherd, often meditated on God’s handiwork. The beauty of the heavens particularly impressed him. At Psalm 19:1, he wrote: “The heavens are declaring the glory of God; and of the work of his hands the expanse is telling.” (Compare Psalm 139:14.) Evidently, his contact with creation drew him closer to his God. It can do the same for us.

As these godly men knew, recognizing and appreciating God’s handiwork uplifts the spirit and enriches our lives. In our modern world plagued with prepacked entertainment that is often debasing, taking note of God’s creation can provide a wholesome activity for ourselves and our families. For those who yearn for God’s promised new world, it is a pastime with a future.—Isaiah 35:1, 2.

Answer 10

Everything existing is not evidence for anything unless you can show how existence depends on your god. I believe existence is evidence for mathematics. People believing in a Giant Cat coughing up reality in a hairball could argue existence is evidence for the giant cat . Unless you can clearly show a causual chain and demonstrate the implausibility of any other explanation you can not use existence as evidence.

And saying you don't believe reality happend by accident is a strawman. I don't believe reality is an accident either. I just don't therefore conclude it is the result of a god.
