The Existence Of God?

Question

Looking for informative input based on reason. It is accepted that God is all powerful and all knowing by the Christian faith, and by many other religions. The Christian Bible says that God knew the end at the beginning. If God knew humans would sin even before their creation, then why create them? How could ANYTHING evil be born of a being who is perfect? According to the Bible Angels rebelled against God, but were also created BY God, therefore had free will obviously. He then cast them into a Hell He created for punishment/banishment. It also seems He changed His mind about the methods for Salvation also. In old testament times sacrifices were required, etc.. But then after wiping out the Earth, killing almost every human whom He knew from the start would sin and be killed by Him, chose to later on give us Salvation through Jesus. God isn't a liar, and IS perfect. So why all the changing of the methods? Is there ANY evidence outside the Bible that God exists? Thanks for your time.

Answer 1

You have a lot of questions there. I will answer the main one.


The existence or non-existence of God cannot be proved or disproved scientifically. At best we can cite certain scientific laws and theories (big bang, second law of thermodynamics, DNA etc.), which indicate the existence of God. There can be no scientific proof, simply because God is not physical or material. He is spiritual and infinite.

But if we broaden our notion of science to include knowledge of things that we get from observing their effects on other things, then God can be known from science.

It is a doctrine of the Church that faith does not come to us through reason alone, but by the grace of God. If a person opposes even the possibility of God's existence, then any arguments or evidence can be rationalized away.

I believe in a personal God from personal experience. It is like faith, hope and love. We know they are true but we cannot prove them concretely. My husband shows his love for me through acts of kindness and caring. To me that is proof that there is a thing called love.

It is the same thing with God. I feel his presence in the situations and circumstances I find myself in. That's how God communicates to me. I also know God loves me through the blessings (in the form of opportunities) he gives me. That's how I know God exists. I don’t need any concrete proof.

Open you heart, mind, and soul to God’s grace and you too will find Him.

Answer 2

You are basically asking about something called the 'problem of omniscience.' Look it up, because people have been debating that for thousands of years.

Answer 3

Imagine your an invisible omnipotent being. You could do and have anything you want. Wouldn't you want to make your own world and just screw with peoples heads?

Answer 4

Answer 7

Because he wanted to their. why do you write quesitons?because you want to.

why do people kill people? Because they want to.

why do people love people? because they want to.

That should be the mandatory answer if a question begins with Why did god....Because he wanted to.

I mean if you can do what you want to and your just a mere human why can't god do what he wnats to do?
