Is there a God and what proof other than just belief do you have?

Answer 1

one must allow god into ones life before you can say wether or not god exist. good luck. be kind.

Answer 2

Yes there is a God. The proof is all around. Suppose you are walking along the beach and you find a watch. Would you say that the ocean created it? No, of course not, it's way to complicated for the ocean to even make the metal in the shape that it is let alone put all the parts together. So, now let's say that you walk a litter further and you find a baby. Would you say that the ocean could possibly have created this baby? Is the parts of a baby not more complicated to put together than a watch? There is no proof how the baby was created, but there is no proof how the watch was created either, yet I know and I believe that man created the watch with God's help and that God created the baby through man.
This is my belief

Answer 3

There is a God from which the universe(s) and its(their) contents emanate. Evidence: Great Pyramid of Giza gives the dates for each of the Divine Manifestations in its geometry as per its purpose. From Jesus to the present the Messengers, Jesus, Muhammad, The Bab and Baha'u'llah are foretold by name, date, address and mission in the bible. God promised that there would always be a king upon the throne of David. Jer. 33, Psalms 89. There is a living king on that throne today that is a sign to the nations of the location of the true Universal House of Justice.

Side note: just because someone believes or disbelieves anything is no sign of accuracy of cognition. A good, though simple scientific method applied over time in an investigation can reveal evidence and the basis for a belief which is an understanding based in demonstrable fact.

I cordially invite you to suspend your disbelief long enough to put your logic and your investigative powers to work on this one. ITs worth it. Pure of heart? Must you have the truth and don't care what it might turn out to be as long as it is the truth? Check this out:

Answer 4

The Bible says it is the word of God to us. If that is true than we can trust what it tells us.

On the spiritual level, it tells us that we can recieve the Holy Spirit and spiritual gifts. Many people have recieved healings to their bodies in the name of Jesus. Many others have recieved other types of miracles. Do a web search with the key words "miracle healing Jesus" for some testimonies.
Also go to some Pentecostal and Apostalic churches in you area and you will see people with the gift of speeking in tongues and many some other gifts in action. Ask them to pray for you so that you may know that God is real.

On an intelectural note, the Bible tells us how the earth was made and about the flood in Noah's day. It tells us that man and dinosaurs lived together. Evolution says that there was millions of years between us. But in several places around the world there are human and dinosaur foot prints in the same rock. Do a web search with the key words "human dinosaur foot prints" to see some pictures.
And there are many other such things to learn about, check out the sites below.

Answer 5

I think in the beginning your experience with God comes from what parents and the church tell you. Then you have to apply the scriptures to your life and begin to develop a personal relationship with God. As you get closer to Him he does reveal himself more and more. I've had several little miracles in my life. I guess that would be the closest thing to proof.

Answer 6

THE BEGINNING

If we do indeed exist, there are only two possible explanations as to how our existence came to be. Either we had a beginning or we did not. The Bible says, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth" (Genesis 1 :1). The atheist has always maintained that there was no beginning. The idea is that matter has always existed in the form of either matter or energy; and all that has happened is that matter has been changed from form to form, but it has always been. The Humanist Manifesto says, "Matter is self-existing and not created," and that is a concise statement of the atheist's belief.

The way we decide whether the atheist is correct is to ask what science has discovered regarding this question. In our part of the cosmos are a number of galaxies similar to our own Milky Way. These galaxies are moving apart relative to each other with every passing moment. If we measure the locations of any three galaxies today, and again tomorrow, they will be further apart. The triangle they form will be bigger by some amount in every dimension. The day after tomorrow the triangle will be bigger yet. We live in an expanding universe that gets bigger and bigger with every passing day.

Now let us suppose that time can run backwards. If we are located at a certain distance relative to those galaxies today, then yesterday we were closer together. The day before that, we were still closer. Ultimately, all galaxies must come together at a beginning, what scientists call a singularity. This puts the lie to the idea of an eternal universe. It had a beginning.

A second proof is seen in the energy sources that fuel the cosmos. Like all stars, the sun generates its energy by a nuclear process known as thermonuclear fusion. In every second, the sun compresses 564 million tons of hydrogen into 560 million tons of helium with 4 million tons of matter released as energy. In spite of that tremendous consumption of fuel, the sun has only used up 2% of the hydrogen it had on the day it was born. This incredible furnace is not a process confined to our sun. Now remember that every star in the sky generates its energy in the same way.

Throughout the cosmos there are 25 quintillion stars, each converting hydrogen into helium, thereby reducing the total amount of hydrogen in the cosmos. If everywhere in the cosmos, hydrogen is being consumed, and if the process has been going on forever, how much hydrogen should be left?

If the cosmos has been here forever, we should have run out of hydrogen long ago. The fact is, however, that the sun has 98% of its original hydrogen still available. Hydrogen is the most abundant material in the universe. Everywhere we look in space we can see the hydrogen 21 cm line in the spectrum - a piece of light only given off by hydrogen. This could not be unless we had a beginning.

A third scientific proof that the atheist is wrong is seen in the second law of thermodynamics. In any closed system, things tend to become disordered. If an automobile is never repaired, for example, it will become so disordered that it would not run any more.

Getting old is simple conformity to the second law of thermodynamics. In space, things also get old. Astronomers refer to the aging process as heat death. If the cosmos is "everything that ever was or is or ever will be," as Dr. Carl Sagan is so fond of saying, nothing could be added to it to improve its order or repair it. Even a universe that expands and collapses and expands again forever would eventually die because it would lose light and heat with each expansion and rebound.

The atheist's assertion that matter/energy is eternal is scientifically impossible. The biblical assertion that there was indeed a beginning is in complete agreement with scientific principals.

THE CAUSE

If we know that creation has a beginning, we are faced with another logical question - was creation caused or was it not caused? The Bible states, "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." Not only does the Bible maintain that there was a cause - a creation - but it also tells us what the cause was. It was God. The atheist tells us that "matter is self-existing and not created." If matter had a beginning and yet was uncaused, one must logically maintain that something would have had to come into existence out of nothing. From empty space with no force, no matter, no energy, and no intelligence, matter would have to become existent. Even if this could happen by some strange new process unknown to science today, there is a logical problem.

In order for matter to come out of nothing, all of our scientific laws dealing with the conservation of matter/energy would have to be wrong, invalidating all of chemistry. All of our laws of conservation of angular momentum would have to be wrong, invalidating all of physics. All of our laws of conservation of electric charge would have to be wrong, invalidating all of electronics. In order to believe matter is uncaused, one has to discard most if not all known laws and principles of science. No reasonable person is going to do this simply to maintain a personal atheistic position.

The atheist's assertion that matter is eternal is wrong. The atheist's assertion that the universe is uncaused and self-existing is also incorrect. The Bible's assertion that there was a beginning which had a cause is supported strongly by the available scientific evidence.

THE DESIGN

If we know that creation had a beginning, and that the beginning had a cause, there is one last question for us to answer - what was that cause? The Bible tells us that God was the cause. We are further told that this God did the causing with planning, reason and logic. Romans 1:20 tells us that we can know who God is "through the things he has made."

The atheist, on the other hand, will try to convince us that we are the product of Chance. Julian Huxley once said:

We are as much a product of blind forces as is the falling of a stone to earth or the ebb and flow of the tides. We have just happened, and man was made flesh by a long series of singularly beneficial accidents. The subject of design has been one that has been explored in many different ways. For most of us, simply looking at our newborn child is enough to rule out chance. Modern-day scientists like Paul Davies and Frederick Hoyle and others are raising elaborate objections to the use of chance in explaining natural phenomena. A principle of modern science as emerged in the 1980s called "the anthropic principle." The basic thrust of the anthropic principle is that chance is simply not a valid mechanism to explain the atom or life. If chance is not valid, we are constrained to reject Huxley's claim and to realize that we are indeed the product of an intelligent God.

Answer 8

i think there is none.

on the other hand, how do you find a superbeing?
if god is really that, a god, you would never be able to prove/disprove his/her/its/their existance.

btw, jo jo, have you ever read catch 22? thats what you're saying.

Edit:I just read suspendor.

Suspendor:Then how was god created?

Answer 9

The Bible. Every word is truth. God would not lie to His children, whom He loves and takes care of.

Answer 10

I have personally seen the miracles He has performed in my life.
I have looked upon His greatest gift to me - my children.
I have seen the beauty of the universe.

But most importantly, He lives in my heart.

--
You may not think those valid reasons, but those are a small sampling of reasons why I believe in God, and they are just as valid to me as the reasons you don't believe in God are to you. (Assuming that you don't by the tone of your question)
