why do you believe in god?

Question

i would like to understand why you do

Answer 1

i believe in god
i am a spiritualist medium who communicates with spirit
these spirit are validated and proven .. through descriptions names dates etc given ..
through these validated spirit i am also able to speak with my spirit guides ..
i have also read and been taught spirit teachings through other spirit guides ...
to have all this validated and proven leaves me no doubt that spirit live on
now ...to the god question
spirit speak of god ... they speak of spirit realms ..the spirit teachings speak of god ...
so if i was to disbelieve there is a god i am disbelieving the spirit teachings and ultimately spirit itself .. which means i am disbelieving myself
so it goes hand in hand for me .. i have proof of spirit who speak of god .. so logically for me anyway .. god exists
this is the best way i can explain it and i accept not many will understand .. but i hope it helps explain why " I " believe in god

Answer 2

Belief in God is a choice. There is an over-abundance of evidence that clearly illustrates the impossibility of creation without a Creator; however, if a person chooses to deny this, it is senseless to try and persuade him. Order can never come from chaos, nor can substance from nothing. That the cosmos abides by immutable laws; that we can know a substance by it's cellular structure and be confident that it won't deviate; that an innate awareness of morality exists in man and a longing for something beyond the physical, all indicate that there MUST be a Designer and Law Maker out there, even if we can't see Him. What a man accepts as "evidence" is solely up to him. It's not that there is no evidence to support the existence of God, for it exists all around up. Men either choose to accept the evidence, or they choose to reject it.

Answer 3

Yes! I have studied the the theory of evolution for many years and life's brilliant diversity and complexity, for me, support the existence of a divine force. This doesn't necessarily have to be a sentient being in the way WE understand it, but I do believe there is something out there beyond us, some kind of creative force. As a theologian I study what people believe about god and why. I particularly like prehistoric belief systems. Humanity has worshiped some form of divine for at least 40,000 years. And remember, in a lot of ways these ancient people were much more tied to the earth and life and death. They didn't believe things because they were stupid or didn't know any better.

Answer 4

There is not any proof for or against the existence of God. However, the evidence shows that there is a God.

Nothing comes from nothing. If, at anything, there was nothing, there would be nothing. Self creation is impossible. Even the big bang states that there was previously matter. That matter shouldn't have been there without a God.

There must have been something that was there. And since self creation is impossible, and this thing was the original being (or if not, go back to the original and apply this to him), there must have been something that was always there.

That thing, whatever it was, must be God.

Answer 5

Take a look at your computer. Did the metal, plastic and wires just fall out of the sky and arrange themselves in perfect order to form such a machine? No, someone created the computer.
Look at the sky, clouds, plants, animals, HUMANS. Did all this just appear? How is it that the earth is in the exact right position from the sun and has all the specifics needed to produce and maintain life? Do you think it just appeared out of nowhere? Everything has a Creator, and God was the one to create those who now create.
But He didnt just create us and leave us alone to chance. He created each person with a purposeful role in His greater plan. After choosing to believe in Him and His Word I have since experienced him, I regularly receive suernatural answers to prayer and abilities such as strength, wisdom and forgiveness that are beyond my abilities. He truly does give us our 'daily bread'.

Answer 6

I love Him. I walked away from my childhood faith and I found my way back. I study a lot of His Word, the Bible and also other books. I believe that the Bible is true. I believe that Jesus is God, I follow His example. But I need Him for my salvation. And I want to be with God after I die. : )

Answer 7

simplest answer I can muster is John 3:16. I have a real, personal relationship with a real Being. God loved His creation so much that He made a way for us to be born again, so that we could be holy & have a relationship with Him. Christianity is not a religion, it's a relationship--that's why religion is dead. Not to be disrespectful of anyone, but the God of the Bible is the only One who is alive.

Answer 9

I have lived my life without God in the center... and now live with Him in the center... when I was living for myself alone, i never achieved any satisfaction.. complete satisfaction (no matter what the circumstance) was always just out of reach... and when I turned my life to the Lord, everything changed... peace was given when I was distraught, Joy was given to fill each day... it isnt just a belief... God listens to me and He answers me... even if i don't always 'like' what He has to say to me... I know that His path for me will always lead me right... only when I choose my own will do i mess up!

Answer 10

I believe in God because I know he exists, I've done a few bad things in my life and whenever I do something always comes back around and hits me. Like when I spoke back to my mom for the first time in a long time something bad happens to me. There is no coincidence. Allah/God helps me in all ways.

Answer 11

Because if i did not believe in God or an afterlife there would be no point in living. Why would i want to live my life an watch loved ones die knowing i would never seen them again? sooo i do believe in god....
