How to believe in god again?

Question

I want to believe, but i cant!
Atheism has deep roots inside me.

Answer 1

Same here, then this happened to me.

Several years ago I had an unusual experience concerning an uncle, a distant relative who lived over a thousand miles away.

While driving my car I suddenly felt the unmistakable presence of this relative that I hardly even knew. He was more like someone I had heard about than someone I knew. It was very strange; it felt as though I was momentarily lifted right out of my physical body. I seemed to be suspended somehow beyond space and time, bathed in a love so intense It felt like I could have just disappear into it at any moment if It would have let me. It only lasted for a few seconds, but it seemed to last forever at the same time. I realize how crazy this must sound. The experience was so strong that at first I was afraid I was loosing my grip on reality. I finally managed to chalk it up to an over active imagination.

Three days later I got a call from my aunt telling me that this uncle we are talking about had gone into a coma and died the day I had the experience. It felt like ice water had been poured down my back when she told me this. I had lost any real ideas of God or faith and had become somewhat of an atheist. Needless to say this experience caused me to rethink some of the conclusions I had come to.

I feel blessed to now understand that even in our darkest confusion something loves us so much that it went out of its way to assist me and bring me back to a state of absolute certainty about Gods love for us.
During the experience it seemed like there was a vast amount of information that I was somehow allowed access to. One thing that I came away from this experience understanding beyond any shadow of a doubt was that any Idea that God is unhappy with us or would judge or allow us to be punished for any reason is simply impossible.

I can’t explain the love I felt with words. They simply don’t make words big enough or complete enough to do this. The only way I can begin to convey this love to you is to say that there was simply nothing else there. Nothing but love. No hint of judgment, no displeasure of any sort. It is as though God sees us as being as perfect as we were the day we were created. It is only in our confused idea of ourselves that we seem to have changed.

I hope this is of some help to you. Good luck. Love and blessings.

Bible predictions of things to happen in the future confirm the inspiration of Scripture as they come to pass. Notice the following examples of fulfilled Bible prophecies:

A. Four world empires to arise: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome (Daniel chapters 2, 7, 8).
B. Cyrus to be the warrior to capture Babylon (Isaiah 45:1-3).
C. After Babylon's destruction, it would never be inhabited again (Isaiah 13:19, 20; Jeremiah 51:37).
D. Egypt would never again have a commanding position among the nations (Ezekiel 29:14, 15; 30:12, 13).
E. Earth-shaking calamities and fear toward the end of time (Luke 21:25, 26).
F. Moral degeneracy and decline of spirituality in the last days (2 Timothy 3:1-5).

The 66 books of the Bible were written:
1. On three continents.
2. In three languages.
3. By about 40 different people (kings, shepherds, scientists, attorneys, an army general, fishermen, priests, and a physician).
4. Over a period of about 1,500 years.
5. On the most controversial subjects.
6. By people who, in most cases, had never met.
7. By authors whose education and background varied greatly.

Yet, though it seems totally inconceivable,
1. The 66 books maintain harmony with each other.
2. Often new concepts on a subject are expressed, but these concepts do not undermine what other Bible writers say on the same subject.

Answer 3

you have to believe in the god, because he exists.

he created the sky, the moon, the earth, all people, all animals, and all creatures.
he created all that for the human, to help the human in the life.

you may say that you don't know him, or what is him.

here is your answer.

no one knows the reality of the god, he is only one, because if was more, of-course they would dispute them selves,he created you, you can't ever say that your parent created you, because when you was a fetus in your mom's womb, the god gave your body your soul, no science all over the world can explain it, or where the soul came from, because the soul is something only the god know what is it.

so if you don't know what is in your body, how you can know who created you and every thing.

it is not optional to believe or not, because you was created to worship the god, he don't want anything else from you.

it is only one life that you can live as you want, but the second life after death will be as you made in ur 1st life.

so you have to work for the second life, as you work for your current life.

now you know, and you have a brain, so you know what you have to do.

if you did it right or wrong, it of-course will be for your self, because no other one will help you in the second life.

THE Korean book 31 Reasons Why Young People Leave the Church asserts that many stop going to church because they cannot find satisfying answers to their questions. For instance, they ask, 'Why do people who believe in God suffer?' and 'Why must we accept everything that the churches teach when many of the teachings are confusing and contradictory?
As far as belief in God is concerned, accurate Bible knowledge is essential. The apostle Paul told the Christians in the ancient city of Philippi: "This is what I continue praying, that your love may abound yet more and more with accurate knowledge and full discernment." (Philippians 1:9) Paul here relates love for God and for fellow believers to accurate knowledge of God and discernment of what his will is.
This is reasonable, since the first requirement for having trust and confidence in someone is knowing that person—the more completely and accurately, the better. Similarly, accurate knowledge is needed for you to be motivated to believe in God. "Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for, the evident demonstration of realities though not beheld," Paul said. (Hebrews 11:1) Belief in God without accurate knowledge of the Bible is like a house of cards. A little puff is enough to make it fall.
Accurate knowledge about God and his purposes can motivate you to love and believe in God. Many were once confused, burdened, and even stumbled by important questions for which they could find no satisfying answers. But as they studied the Bible, they found the answers, and that changed their life completely

Answer 5

Talk to someone who has beaten cancer against all doctors' predictions and diagonoses....sit with a disabled child who still has hope and joy....listen to stories told by the elderly in a nursing home, of days when an orange was your one and only Christmas gift...
Wake up early and watch a sunrise---ditto for a sunset.
Other than that, I can't make you believe. But enjoy the ride, son, enjoy the ride.

Answer 6

You can't force yourself to believe. If you really want to start praying, but in my opinion you have to believe that your prayers are being heard... Or maybe don't go to the whole length of being totally Christian. Nobody knows for sure who or what God is. Maybe it's just the goodness of the world and the energy running through it. Why do you want to believe? If you can answer that, maybe you can find how to, or something else to turn to.

Answer 7

Belief is a matter of choice...have you tried stepping out in FAITH and simply TRUSTING GOD? Have you heard the Gospel? Do you realize you are a sinner; separated from a Holy God because of that sin, and that NO good works can save you? The Bible says,
"For by grace are ye saved through faith and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast". (Ephesians 2:8-9).Jesus Christ God's perfect, sinless Son, bore on His own person the sins of the world. He died with His arms outstretched, willing to embrace ALL who would come to Him. Jesus preached, "Except ye repent, ye shall ALL likewise perish". In Luke chapter 16 (too lengthly to write out), Jesus talks about the man in hell, burning and in torment. He wants everyone to know it is a VERY REAL place! After Jesus died, to prove He was God and that His blood offering was perfect and acceptable as a propitiation for our sins, He rose from the dead, and ascended into Heaven where He is waiting for repentant sinners to ask for forgiveness, that He may give them eternal life. The Bible ALSO says,"It is appointed unto man ONCE to die, but after this the judgment". (Hebrews 9:27) I would suggest if you feel God tugging at your heart, that you do as He's leading you to do, and turn to Him. He will transform your life....He did mine!

Answer 8

Next time you see a flower. Observe it without thinking and you'll know what GOD is.

To feel GOD, you need to stop thinking. Atheists don't and thats what stops them from finding GOD.

True Love, Joy, and Peace, comes from beyond the thoughts of the mind.

Answer 9

It is better to be atheist and be good in eyes of God than claim to be his believer and cause evil like by using faith of others to steal money for your own purpose or to make them kill innocents in name of God that allows only pure in truth protection of yourself and weak. You will find Him if you seek or He will find you if you believe deep inside no matter what state of believe you identity yourself. Find piece of God in yourself and people with good will - they dont have to claim to be His fallowers, they can be normal good people. God is in care about someone, in will to understand and help others. He is in honest, brave and disinterested behave. You must learn it by your own, but dont turn arround if someone is able to help you comprehend it. Just do not forget that someone can wish to cheat you, so never loose your own will, because wrong leaders, priests and others like that exist. Some things should stay only between you and God and sometimes it is only one thing to protect you - your own strong will.

Answer 10

Join a Christian group, go to church or what I think the best way would be, read the Bible. If you are trying to find God he'll find you. If you REALLY want it I believe Jesus will enter you heart very soon.
