Or do you believe He has given us enough proofs of His exisentence, that we shouldn't have to blindly believe?
If so please list some examples of His existence.

Come on believers! I don't need personal beliefs. I need examples such as fulfilled prophesy or something in our PHYSICAL universe. something tangible that the world can't deny!

I was once told by a co-worker that he didn't believe because it's a blind faith. I reminded him that the bible is a heavy book, packed with more than enough information to enable us to make an intelligent decision.
God's track record is sufficient so that no one would have to rely on blind faith.
The bible is loaded with examples of how God wants us to be knowledgeable, wise, sober-minded, mature, educated, well equipped to come up with sound solutions to the problems of this world.
God describes His followers as "children of light". He does not want us remaining in darkness, ignorance, unbelief, and blind to reality.

An example (one of many) fulfilled prophesies occured in May 1948 when Israel was re-established. Another fulfillment was Daniel's prophesy of Jesus making His triumphal entry in Jerusalem, fulfilled to the exact day! What is especially signifigant about this is that this prophesy was already translated into Greek (this translation is called the Septuigent) in Alexandria many centuries before Jesus. This is well documented; no one can say it was written after the fact.
Jesus fulfilled dozens Old Testament prophesies.

Prophecy Fulfillment by Jesus :
Be born in Bethlehem Micah 5:2 Matthew 2:1; Luke 2:4-7
Be adored by great persons Psalms 72:10-11 Matthew 2:1-11
Be annointed with the Spirit of God Isaiah 11:2, 61:1 Matthew 3:16; John 3:34; Acts 10:38
Be hated without cause Isaiah 49:7; Psalms 69:4 John 15:24-25
Be undesired and rejected by His own people Isaiah 53:2, 63:3; Psalms 69:8 Mark 6:3; Luke 9:58; John 1:11,
Be plotted against by Jews and Gentiles together Psalms 2:1-2 Acts 4:27
Be betrayed by a friend Psalms 41:9, 55:12-24 Matthew 26:21-25, 47-50; John 13:18-21; Acts 1:16-18
Be betrayed for 30 pieces of silver Zechariah 11:12 Matthew 26:16
Have his price given for a potter’s field Zechariah 11:13 Matthew 27:7
Be forsaken by His disciples Zechariah 13:7 Matthew 26:31, 56
Be struck on the cheek Micah 5:1 Matthew 27:30
Be spat on Isaiah 50:6 Matthew 26:67, 27:30
Be mocked Psalms 22:7-8 Matthew 27:31, 39-44
Be beaten Isaiah 50:6 Matthew 26:67, 27:26, 30
Be thirsty during His execution Psalms 22:15 John 19:28
Be given vinegar to quench that thirst Psalms 69:21 Matthew 27:34
Be considered a transgressor Isaiah 53:12 Matthew 27:38
Be buried with the rich when dead Isaiah 53:9 Matthew 27:57-60
Be sought after by Gentiles as well as Jews Isaiah 11:10, 42:1 Acts 10:45
Be accepted by the Gentiles Isaiah 11:10, 42:1-4, 49:1-12 Matthew 12:21; Acts 10:45; Romans 15:9-12

Now that you have seen this comparison, you must answer this question, “What will you do about Jesus?”
People may try to deny these things, but they do so without any basis in historical fact.
But then again, there are those who deny the Holocaust. Denial of the truth is not proof.

Oh, I have many examples of his existence.

My friend's grandma was talking to her friend. Her friend was saying how she had asked for God to remove the bags under her eyes. My friend's grandma said "Why did you pray for that? God isn't going to do that"--just basically criticizing her for praying that. Later in the week, the grandma was sitting home alone reading a book. Suddenly a bright light appeared in front of her and said "who are you to judge what other people pray for?!"
This is a true story.
Another time, a different friend of mine was running in the woods. The woods behind his house were close to a construction site, where several large, burly, mean men were working. My friend got close to it, he was just minding his own business, when he heard big footsteps coming toward him. He started walking faster and the footsteps followed him. He started praying, and then, A big light appeared between him and the woods, and then disappeared. He stood there and listened, but the footsteps were gone. This, again, is a true story.
I have had several prayers answered. I was thinking about suicide one day after a whole lot of terrible things happened to me, and then God healed my pain the next day and resolved all of my problems.
For all of you out there who don't believe God exists--I guess you didn't read what I wrote very carefully.
This is a true story:
One day a man was driving in his car and he got in a car wreck. He was put in the hospital. People all over were praying for him. He died, but people kept praying. And guess what happened?? He came back to life. And he was able to discribe heaven, and what he had seen.
This is a true story:
My friend's cousin stepped out of her car one day. Something happened--she stepped into a puddle that had electrical wires in it. She saw heaven's gates--her grandparents were there and her parents, all waving to her. And then she woke up. And she wasn't hurt after stepping into a puddle with sharp electrical wires in it.
If that doesn't say something about His existence, I don't know what does.

"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

I think that at first, atleast for me, believing in God was mostly blind faith. I had no proof of His existence, but I continued to have faith and hope. Over time, however, I realized that my faith was no longer blind. I have somehow gained the wisdom that God if truth.

I think that you are only blind before the Spirit of God opens your eyes. I see so much of God in my life it's amazing. And even when I am in troubles up to my eyeballs and can't keep "my eyes" focused on Jesus so to speak, I remember all that He has done for me in the past and I am humbled to think that I would not trust Him

Have you seen God working in your own life? I sure have seen him in mine and that's my proof.

God loves us unconditionally and wants us to worship Him. but it's our choice to do so or not.
