He has already proven that he is God and has control over the earth, but some just refuse to believe. One thing is the weather such as: rain, tornadoes, hurricanes, and etc. all of these natural disasters that man cannot control should be confirmation enough. Death is another thing, because of sin, everyone must die. God is in conrol of that also. I am already covinced, but not just by that. The things he has done for me in my own personal life that no human being could ever do. He has saved me from a miserable life of sin and shame. He has given me his grace and power to live a consistent sin free life. He did that for me, not the devil, not the pope, and surely not myself. God is God and "I AM CONVINCED" but some may not be until they reach the judgement.

Your thoughts revolves around God, individual, nations, earth control...so on. A communist will say that God is an 'idea' that was developed by vested interests. Religions catogorically state that "HE are Supreme". Both versions are intended for benefits to mankind. They are opposite in meanings. (Religion says an invisible supreme power rules and Communists says human beings rule! It is a sensitive argument)!
Simpler explanation is needed to ordinary people to recognize HIS infinite nature. if you learn it from a better teacher, I will say that you are most lucky!
I recommend that you should not wait to meet that teacher!
Mathematically 'an infinitesimal part of HIM' keeps you alive(your Soul). It is true for all forms of living things. Said uniquness does exist. You can deny such facts until you feel that your Soul is departing your body! At last , irrespective of your wish to remain with HIM, HE leave, which is a law of nature!
All forms of life-cycles work with a mathematical precision and generally all living things experience pleasures of living irrespective of hardships!
Yourself is source to your worry (say convincing people of nations that GOD are supreme) . GOD have no such worries! It is impossible to control infinite free minds where as a restricted 'freedom to act' by 'a use of own senses' is a definite need and Almighty has given it to all living things. That is the control HE retains! If anybody acts unethically, is it not your responsibility to stand up and fight against it! Who is stopping you from doing it?
Billions of trillions living things complete life by a mere struggle for existence. Can you change a law of nature that "fittest one sirvives"? Have you got freedom to be fit yourself? Are you using that freedom?...means; look at yourself!
You will find that a start, middle and end of a life cycle of each living thing undergoes 'hardship and pleasure' of concerned stages. Still you may act within your limitations either as a stong individual or as part of a Nation.
Probably the best garden of this universe could be the earth itself!
If individuals and nations do something wrong it is nothing more than plucking a flower from said garden-earth. You will agree that I have stated mere facts, which could be a-bit differrent on another plannet that supports life.
You need not preach anything about HIM. Just behold HIM!
Guess how much you can convince me when I know that I carry
an infinitesimanl part of HIM, (which adds HIS infinite qualities within me and I have a freedom to act by using any one of said qualities). What differrence it makes if I am an athist or a beliver?
You may also try to convince people who are not concerned about all these 'humbug' and thereby 'you have chosen to waste your valuable time'. Then You are simply using your freedom! Go ahead!

God doesn't have to do anything to convince me of this. I know it is true because the Bible tells me he has all authority and I believe it is his divinely inspired word.
As for those who don't believe? The Bible talks about people's heart being hardened in the last days and I think that is a lot of what we are seeing right now. There is plenty of evidence that He is in control if people choose to believe.
While it is important for Christians to continue to witness and share the truth with non-believers, we also have to understand that we can't convince someone who is determined to remain unconvinced. God will speak to them and continue to send people into their lives, because he doesn't want anyone to perish. We may plant a seed that someone else can later help God harvest.
I have found that it often takes a tragedy before some will come to God. For example, they are facing a life or death illness or a loved one is.
Another posted said they would believe when they see him. Many will see Jesus in the clouds during the rapture of his church. It won't be too late at this point to repent and accept him as your savior but it will be too late to avoid the trials of the tribulation which will be great. If you are reading this and sitting on the fence about whether or not you should accept Christ as your savior, then I hope you decide to go ahead. How much better it would be to avoid the persecution Christians will have to bear
A lot of people think that you can't come to God the way you are. You have sinned, are dirty, whatever. But the truth is that you come to Jesus JUST as you are and He will begin to change you. He did it for me and I'm not better than anyone else, so he can do it for you as well.
God bless!

I do believe in God but I don't necessarily believe he has total control of the Earth. I believe He gave us free will and logic for a reason. I see him more as the Creator of all things but not the cause of all things. I think, more often than not, He may be just as surprised by the choices humans make as we are.

Drop the indirect theatrics of earthquakes, hurricanes, and such, and simply come forward in a straightforward manner that would reveal him as something everyone could agree on. And then STAY public like that, not just for 50 years or another arbitrary and finite era (yeno ... like biblical times).
A reclusive and vague god that expects to be agreed upon by the world is a foolish god. Since when does foolishness command respect????

God is nt a guy or woman as some religions seem to think of.it rather is a mix of particular traits like the advent a,sustenance and annihilation.it rather is Brahmma the factor of advent of god as a high quality of nature .that creates the worldwide .The Hindu philosophy is basically too diffused for lots of the persons and extremely for the westerners and non-hindus , to comprehend . It ia arithmetic for others ( confusing ) and arithmetic for the Hindus ( undemanding)

I thought that we have control on earth, not God. So, nothing. Doesn't religion preach about free will and choices? If God has total control, how does that work?

I'm already convinced. I know things run exactly the way they were meant to, because everything was designed with purpose.
Some people will never believe, no matter what. For a nonbeliever, no proof is sufficient. For a believer, no proof is necessary.
