who beleives in god?? why and why not??

Answer 1

i believe in God because he conversed with me in a dream... he told me that he forgives my sins. and answered the question that confused me for years.
i spent about a month praying for him to forgive me ... at the end i had this dream. i haven't hear any voices it was a heart to heart conversation.

i am sure it was real because i cut an apple in the dream into two equal parts without a knife and I've done this when i woke up the next morning, that ,ve happened a year ago but I'm still confused and amazed

Answer 2

I believe in God, but I don't worship Him. He's just one of hundred thousands of gods. No god is omnipotent, no god is the Creator. Man made all the gods, or made the being into a god. God of the Bible was originally Yahweh, the Hebrew war god. I don't like Middle Eastern theology. It's fanatical and extremist. I don't need a war god either. I do have gods and goddesses that I worship and have relationships with, but they're not Hebrew war gods or Hanged Gods or anything like that.

Answer 3

i'm not a Christian i'm an agnostic, yet I extremely have seen this question lots so i wish you do not suggestions me giving my expertise. shall we anticipate there's a Loving God, God provides us a existence, shall we anticipate it is for gaining the adventure which existence provides us all. The adventure of suffering is, if dying isn't the top, an quite worth mutually as adventure, yet dying is frequently a lots needed relieve. dying with those assumptions isn't a punishment. Now the promise of the Bible is for an eternity in a staggering place. If somebody lived for a hundred and forty years, that may not something while in comparison with eternity, being happy and soreness loose thereafter. i in my view won't be able to appreciate the God of the Bible, by way of fact i discover that God prejudiced, and no one merits eternal punishment, and if a chum wasn't in Heaven with me, Heaven does not be that staggering. yet i will think of a technique, wherein everybody is rewarded for his or her existence ceaselessly, and if that have been genuine, any suffering we do in this Earth could be a small cost to pay. shall we positioned it yet in any different case, think of you have been god, and you left Human's to do issues their very own way, you're able to understand many are suffering, yet you're able to additionally understand how staggering eternity could be for them after their dying, in case you do not intervene. For in case you stopped human beings suffering they could replace into based on you, and does not be taught what they needed to be taught. The afterlife I extremely have imagined, could enable each and every human beings to create our very own international/ Universe or perhaps step into it if we choose, in in spite of form we like. As I reported i'm an agnostic, yet i will see how a constrained existence with suffering, could be worth determining to purchase an eternity of happiness.

Answer 4

I believe in God, because He revealed Himself to me through the Bible. I have a personal relationship with Him, and so I have proved Him to be real so many times, through so many different situations and circumstances, during the past 37 years.

Answer 5

Not me:
ow does one reconcile omnipotence, omnibenevolence and omniscience with this world and the life on it. And, why are there so many billions of people living in entire, huge countries whose culture has nothing remotely like the xian god and jesus. Here is a post I did before on the topic:

Because I look at what life was like for human beings for the past 40,000 years (maybe 6,000 for you). People lived for an average of 30-40 years. More than 50% of children died before age one (until about 100 years ago!). I look at thousands of children permanently blinded by parasites they get from playing in creeks in underdeveloped countries.

Then I look at children of modern developed countries, of any religion. I see that they live until their EIGHTIES!! Have all their teeth for a very long time. Have excellent health, etc... And I see that this has nothing to do with religion or god. It is medicine and science. So was it god's plan that hundreds of generations of people would suffer and die in their 40's and suddenly in the 19th and 20th century, everything would get better?

That's nothing other than sadistic.

I also look at all the different gods and interpretations of these gods for the past 4,000-5,000 years. I see how silly it is to point to one religion in the roman era and say "Ah, THIS is the correct one!"

I also posted this in answer to that question:
* The bible has many contradictions
* The bible shows the OT god to be violent and bloodthirsty. He also kills thousands of children.
* For thousands of years, man has had a lifespan of 30-40 years. 100 years ago in the US, 50% of children died before age 1. Modern medicine has greatly reduced this. During eras in western history when the catholic church was in charge and belief in god and church attendance was required, this did not change. So prayer seems not to have been the answer.
* The history of religions and gods seems to show that man has no consistent image or view of what god is or does.
* The bible is open enough to interpretation that if you walked into a church and asked 3 people questions about the bible or god's will, you would get probably 8 different answers.
* People kill each other in god's name every day and he apparently does nothing to stop it.
* 50% of conceptions do not result in birth
* 1 in 8 pregnancies result in twins and one twin is eventually reabsorbed.
* Children are born with no brains, with no limbs, retarded, blind.
* Children go blind from parasites every day, children suffer asthma, and other diseases

Notice I focus on CHILDREN, not adults so please don't tell me that millions of children are dying b/c god wants us to have free will. These children barely have free will yet and toddlers don't have it at all.

Answer 7

i believe in god
i am a spiritualist medium who communicates with spirit
these spirit are validated and proven .. through descriptions names dates etc given ..
through these validated spirit i am also able to speak with my spirit guides ..
i have also read and been taught spirit teachings through other spirit guides ...
to have all this validated and proven leaves me no doubt that spirit live on
now ...to the god question
spirit speak of god ... they speak of spirit realms ..the spirit teachings speak of god ...
so if i was to disbelieve there is a god i am disbelieving the spirit teachings and ultimately spirit itself .. which means i am disbelieving myself
so it goes hand in hand for me .. i have proof of spirit who speak of god .. so logically for me anyway .. god exists
this is the best way i can explain it and i accept not many will understand .. but i hope it helps explain why " I " believe in god
