There are seven basic proofs God exists. Properly, they belong in a separate book all by themselves, but I will cover them briefly here.
(1) That there is a great CREATION is obvious. The very fact of the existence of THINGS; the universe, the solar system, the earth and all myriad forms of life upon it, demands a CREATOR!
(2) The existence of great, immutable, powerful LAWS (and I speak of the "laws" governing the physical universe; the laws of science and chemistry; laws governing the action of water in its three states; the cleavage and fracturing properties of minerals; gravity, inertia, isostasy, etc., etc.). The existence of these great laws demands a lawgiver!
(3) The intricacy of complex design; whether the feathers on the wing of a bird; the eye of a fly; the breathing apparatus of a dolphin; billions of intricately-designed snowflakes; your own muscular, skeletal, digestive and circulatory systems-etc., etc., requires a great DESIGNER!
(4) LIFE exists. Life in myriad forms. You and I both know that life only comes from preexisting life! This is called the "law of biogenesis." Life demands a great LIFE GIVER!
(5) Life only comes from preexisting life of the same kind! Thus, there is procreation, and the sustaining of life on our planet; the constant recycling of falling trees, rotting vegetation; the bacteria which break it down to become food for the insects which are food for dozens of other creatures, which are in turn food for larger creatures, which are in turn food for man; the cyclical character of our symbiotic environment which, like a gigantic machine was once "wound up," and is gradually running down, requires a sustaining force. Inherent within this proof are the laws governing the "conservation" of energy" and the laws of thermodynamics. It is obvious our universe has a great sustaining force-a GREAT SUSTAINER!
(6) Fulfilled prophecies, of which there are dozens, with dozens more yet to be fulfilled, constitute a great proof of Almighty God. Even simple high school or beginning college-level Bible handbooks such as Halley's, or the Angus Bible Handbook contain fascinating proofs from the spade of archeologists corroborating the prophecies of men who foretold the collapse of great empires and the emergence of others centuries and centuries beyond their own lifetime. Now, we are able to look back at such men as Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel and others, and see what they foretold actually HAPPENED exactly as they foretold it!
Many of the biblical prophecies are in process of being fulfilled. The serious student of biblical archeology knows that it is axiomatic that, wherever archeology reveals information about ancient civilizations, it always corroborates the biblical record, never refutes it!
(7) The final proof-one which dyed-in-the-wool disbelievers will doubtlessly scoff at-is answered prayer! Of course. God does not answer the prayers of skeptics and disbelievers. However, those individuals who have experienced the answer to PRAYER; those who have been healed of their sicknesses and diseases, who have actually seen miracles performed, are no longer doubting, but believing. Answered prayer is definitely a proof that there is a God who can hear. and answer

Have you ever wondered how unique the formation of our human body? Have you ever thought of your relation with
the earth and universe. What actually you are made up of,
what happen if there there is only daylight all the time or 24 hours
without daylight. What if the oxygen that we breath doesn't exist? Science couldn't explain why a spherical object (earth)can spin on its own regularly dividing the day and night equally, without anything attach to it. Knowing yourself first only you could find the God. Faith is by seeing , it is a kind feeling from
the bottom of your heart. No one on earth can prove to you the existance of God, only you yourself will find the God through your inner soul.

Wow..theres quite a lot here. I just hope I can hold up to those who insist god exist's. For the ones who follow the path of faith in ANYTHING, have my well wishes. But...don't shove it at me.

1. If god is up there, ok.
2. If god is not up there, no problem.
3. If all that we see, touch, taste, smell, and hear derives from god, umm..ok again.
4. If this is all a joke, or some experiment, oh well.
5. If there is a god, and he's up/out there saying.."clap-on, clap-off, the clapper..", guess what? i dont care.
None of the things he intended went right on the first try, this is obvious in that the "bible" says once the forbidden fruit was taken and eaten, god was pissed.
So dont shove on me that he is all good.
Just look at us. We cant go (as a world population), for very long without a war, or some other terrible thing...all this was INTENDED? bah....
anyway's- give me something more, something i can chew and taste. then i might believe.
If I had it to do, I would have stopped it all at the time of the first Egyptian dynasty.

It is not possible to prove if God exists or not. It is possible to KNOW he exists by accepting the teaching of the Bible and coming into a personal relation with Him.

The Bible (King James version) says
"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." Hebrews 11:6

When a person does this they find God is real just as they know other things are real, but they cannot prove God is real.

i think it comes down to experience. i dont think anyone can say there isn't a god unless they have tried a religion and not found God. People just judge and say there isn't a god based on the fact that they find it hard to believe. but if you really want to find out whether there is a god, you need to look first, not at evidence to prove god, but for god himself. then you decide. email if you want to know more

it's obviously impossible to know anything for sure, even whether or not you are awake, exist or are even thinking. if by prove, you mean to be sure that there is absolutely no chance that you are in any way wrong about some thing, then you can't prove it. in fact, even if such a thing existed as gods, and if the Christian god existed and was called "God", God, I'm almost sure, wouldn't be completely sure that God existed, were awake, and was thinking this thought that is our Christian world.

there are plenty of common sense proofs that there is no god, though.

Well let me put it this way. There is no way we can prove the existence of a God and that existence seems very far-fetched to me. I know people are gonna give me a thumbs down for this answer, but think about it...Is it rational to believe in such supernatural myths? I'm an Atheist but I also keep my mind open to the possibilty of there being a God but my rational thinking tell me it's highly improbable. In the meantime I will continue to search for answers and use reason to reach my conclusions.

There is only god. The confusion lies in what you understand by the word god. You can use whatever word you like, but it is all things and it has no name, no gender and no qualities. It is entirely beyond human conception as it is before concepts. You will not attain this by thinking or reasoning. Just take a look instead. For the first time since you were a child.
As to whether it exists or not, basically it is all that exists. It is all that you see, it is the eyes that see it, it is the one who is seeing. No faith is necessary, no proof is necessary.

Well i don't believe he exists but I cant prove it. We also can't prove that my imaginary friend Tom doesn't exist. Or that the ghost of my dead hamster Polly isn't right here, watching over me. Heck, there's a lot of entities I can make up right now and you wouldn't be able to prove they aren't real.

Questions like these have been asked, are asking, and will be asked as long as man exists, because nobody can give the final answer.
For people who don't believe in the One True God, they may suffer in doubt, in suspicion, in confusion. They know not the truth and they have no respect to any higher Educators for their learning.
For those who consciously believe, they learn in the Holy Books and they behave as ignorant pupils before the all knowing Messenger of God, they obtain the relative truth for that age, and reach a new level of civilization, such as Buddhist civilization, Christian civilization, Islamic civilization...
This divine process of Progressive Revelation will continue to evermore.
