Help me, to understand!!!?

Question

Why do you believe in god and/or religion? I'm hoping to recieve some answers that 1) dont contradict your beliefs. 2) That give a clear answer (possibly, personal experiences with god). 3) That do not preach. 4) that do not have any words taken from a bible... just good, clear, concise reasons please!

Answer 1

From a purely logical stance, I believe in God because LIFE (DNA) is way to complicated to arise without an intelligent mind. Hypothetically,you don't expect satellites, microchips, computers, etc. to "build themselves" over long periods of time, but they require intelligent minds to build them, I believe that the same applies with life.
(God created time-space, therefore god never required a "beginning" unlike the universe)

Answer 2

I believe in God simply because He has shown me He really does exist, in many different ways.
To give you an example, when I was 15, I had the opportunity to join fellow christians into going on a trip to Brazil to help the missionaries down there build a home for the Nationals, and a building for school.
Must I mention that at that time, I literally despised God simply because He had chosen to take a great man home to be with Him and at that time, I didn't understand.
One day, it was beautiful and no rain, just a normal warm shiny day, I decided to read my bible in the book of Genesis. I had just got done reading about how whenever you see the rainbow, that is God's reminder to us of His promise that He will never flood the earth again.
I prayed and asked God to show me in some way that if He truly existed, if He truly heard me, to show me a sign.
As I got up and turned around, I looked up into the sky and to my disbelief, there was not only one rainbow, but there was a double rainbow clear as day in the sky, I had never seen a double rainbow in my life until that day.
So from that day on, I knew for a fact that God did exist and did hear my prayers.
God shows in so many different ways, sometimes we don't notice them.
There are many other ways that God reminds me He is still there, but I would take forever in telling you all of them.
If you've ever had a moment where you just looked around you, feeling the breeze and all of a sudden you feel like a comfort, especially when you're stressed, when you feel that comfort or that tug on your heart that it's going to be ok, who do you think that is?

Answer 3

I believe in God because it gives me a sense that when I feel lonely sad or down, He will always be there. The belief He is there is what lifts me up. It's all in the feeling of that belief is the trick. I could never imagine a life without God. Even when He wasn't in my life I had a sense He was always there. Religion does not tell me to believe in God. Having the consciousness of His existance does.

Answer 4

Because I have overcome situations in my life that I thought were hopeless, and that I would never stop doing. I am living today, when one day I should have never woken up, because of some things I had done. I have made a complete 180 in my life, after accepting Jesus in my heart, and truly know with all that I am, that it was God working in my life that has helped me be the person I am today, and who will become in the future. I am a better friend, a better daughter, and I hope one day, a great mother. But most importantly I am a servant of the Lord =)

Answer 5

I believe in God because He created everything. Don't your instincts tell you that there is someone above you? Your not the highest being on earth? When i was about 2-3 years old, I was sick with a very bad illness and would have died if my parents didn't pray to God, and no, i didn't go to the hospital either. It was very serious. God made a miricle in my life and that's just one thing that strengthened my faith in Him.

Answer 6

I believe in God you now why?
Because he made any thing in this world he created human being.
Didn't you ask yourself one day who created people ?

Didn't you ask your self who made the sun.stars,planets,moon and every thing and who make them move ?

Didn't you ask your self who is holding this earth ? God is

Didn't you ask your self who holds the sky ? it may fall on us

If you didn't ask your self all this questions ask yourself now before you meet God and you say i didn't now that .

And if you dint have a religion take Islam your religion and you will never change it and you will now who is God?why did he create us in this world?

Islam is the religion that God wants every person to have it .

Answer 7

You cannot discover Gods truth and leave out His Holy Scriptures. Worldly wisdom cannot teach you about God.
It is like saying: Teach me about math, however I do not want you to speak about numbers or equations.
God Bless You in your search.....Peace.
