Please don't say that it's to be found in the hereafter. I'm interested in the here-and-now.

How about this:
Last year 10,000,000 children under the age of five died of starvation and diease.
Will that do?

It replaced right into a attempt of religion. Abraham replaced into given a promise earlier taking his son to the mountain, and he replaced into stopped earlier truly doing the act you describe. He depended on that God might save his promise. It replaced into right here that God informed Abraham that He did no longer decide for a human sacrifices. Now you should argue that Jesus replaced into human and so it replaced right into a sacrifice, yet you would be improper. Jesus went WILLINGLY to the pass, He gave himself up, no person compelled Him or took Him against His will. He stepped into the hollow and payed the fee. He reported Himself that no-one can take His existence from Him, it ought to easily settle for. There are money owed that have been got here upon that reported that Herod replaced into shocked at how rapidly Jesus died, which leads us to have confidence that He did in actuality supply himself up.

Well, i personally think their are two things. Projection and reality. Projection is how we see the world in our thoughts and our thoughts make us who we are. Reality on the other hand is different, it stays firm without how we percieve it to be. So lets say we are dependent on the truth and the truth is not dependent on us. Now how do we find out the truth thats the main question. Jesus Chist gave a hint and said that always be ready to learn like kids so you can reach kingdom of heaven. The process is pretty lengthy. This is the best example i can give you right now, but i am working on something that i will defiantely email you someday. Thanks!

The Bible screams of his love throughout its many pages.
Just start with the beginning. In Genesis God created the heavens and the earth and its inhabitants. He wanted being created in his image. He wanted something to love, and that would love right back. We are his perfect and magnificent creation, and despite the fact that we fell short of what we were intended for, God remains faithful to us.
We hear about how we need to have faith in God, but we rarely think about the faith he has in us. He knows what we're capable of, and he's always there to help us reach that potential and be the best people that we can.
What is more pure than being loved unconditionally, no matter what we do?

The fact that a woman can create another life inside her.
The fact that the planet is covered with plants that provide oxygen. The same oxygen that we just happen to need to breath.
The fact that the ONE thing that we can not do without...water...covers two-thirds of the planet.
The fact that when your parents die unexpectedly, and during the funeral you are standing above the graves...that the most beautiful butterfly you have ever seen happens to land on your shoulder and yet when you look around...there is not another butterfly in sight.

Romans 4:20 says that no unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God. (Amplified Bible)
Do this and you will find the answer to your question. You see, I can give you examples such as we have air to breathe, water to drink, we can see with our eyes, we can hear with our ears, we can walk, we can talk and we have the ability to make free will decisions.
If I have to give you examples, that means you're looking for signs and wonders when they are all around you to begin with.
Accept Jesus in your heart and the you'll see how his love works and all your questions will be answered.

If you understood anything about what happened at the cross, you would realize that God has provided for every need of mankind, both temporal and eternal through the cross. The cross provides righteousness - right standing in God's eyes, and affords access through faith to ask and receive whatever we are in need of.

God's love is visible in the things his children do. look at what people like mother Theresa did, as well as many others.
my parents were missionaries who gave up a comfortable life in their own country in order to provide schools and hospitals in remote areas in Africa.

The fact that a Holy God would want anything to do with someone like me, speaks volumes. To know that My God ALWAYS wants only the absolute best for me even when I eagerly want to settle for anything that comes along. I can say without doubt, no one, has ever cared for ME, as my God does.

Everyday that goes by is another day he didn't smite you or turn you into a pillor of salt or harden the hearts of your neighbors so they would feel emboldened to stone you for your wickedness. This is how you can know the love of God.
