You say you have no faith. I believe you are wrong. I believe you have a powerful faith you have barely tapped in to. The proof is in your own words: "I want to be saved..." .
This is by itself as great a testimony of faith that a person can make.
All that remains is for you to pray, accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and confessing it to someone. It would be really terrific if you would let us know here. Trust me; you're already halfway there!
If you need more help, please contact me - my email add. is available, or contact one of the other Christians on-line here. There is a great group of believers here.
God bless you in your journey toward Him.

You will have to pray to God. Read in the Bible, Matthew 5:1-48. After you read these blessings from Jesus you might feel so much different. There are many just like you who don't think God is real, and it is only because you can't see him. There are reasons for this and one of them is so that we will have faith, as God wants pure hearts. Look around at the world. Notice the trees, mountains, lakes, oceans, streams, flowers and everything else that is natural. These things were made from God. Have you ever noticed that these things never need to be repaired or fixed? The flowers are so perfect that they never need painted. Look at the sun and the moon. No one has ever had to repair them either, but them look at the concrete streets, sidwalks, buildings, and even your house and car. All these things are man made and need repaired and fixed every so often. If this is not proof enough for you to believe in God, I really don't know what else to say. You can really pray to God and ask him to please help you to find your faith, and he will do that. Remember, the Bible has been around forever,and Jesus did die for our sins.

Just your very question alone should tell you that deep in your heart is a small seed of faith. Deep down you do believe God is real or else why would you be asking this. The bible says faith is a gift. Jesus said even faith the size of a mustard seed can grow into an enourmous tree. So my advice to you is to take that tiny seed of faith burried deep in your heart and ask Christ to grow it. May sound a little goofy but if you give him what you have, He'll give you much more.

It is always hard to believe in God but keep praying and you'll be fine.
Find some Christian friends and talk about God.
Read the Holy Bible, it helps.
Go to the local church or the church that your Christian friends go to.
Let the power of Jesus come into your heart.
You'll be just fine, I'll be praying for you.

1. You do believe or you wouldn't want to be saved.
2. Call out to God and ask Him to soften your heart.
3. This is not about what you can do, it is about what Jesus has already done for you.
4. Ask God to reveal Himself to you in a real way, and be prepared for what happens!

First of all, read the Bible every day and pray for holy spirit to help you understand. Ask God to prove to you that he is real. Be open to those who want to help you to understand who he is but be very sure they are using the Bible to show you that what they are telling you is correct. Soon, you will begin to see a glimmer of faith. E-mail me if you need any more help. I will do my best.

pray about it...it shall come. Listen to the word, read the bible.
For faith comes by hearing the spoken word of G-d.
And all things are possible to those that believe...takes faith.
Blessings

In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful
So, whomsoever Allah intends to guide, He expands his bosom for the acceptance of Islam; and whomsoever He intends that he should go astray, He makes his bosom narrow and close, as though he was mounting up into the skies. Thus does Allah inflict punishment on those who do not believe.

try this.
ask this to yourself
Do yu consider yourself a good person? (yes or no)
then ask yourself
Have yu ever lied?
what does that make?
Have yu ever stolen anything? what doe that make yu.
Have yu called God's name in vain?
Yu have probaly broken all three of these things and "if" there is a God yu have broken three of His commandments from Exodus. "If" there is a God would yu go to Heaven or Hell if He judged yu by all ten of His commandments.

You can't make yourself believe, but in my opinion part of you maybe just 1% does because you want to. PLEASE do not let the holy rollers who quote the Bible turn you off. It will come in your own time. Good luck
