Answer 1

I can tell you what won't work:

> Pascal's Wager
> God talks to me so he must be real
> You can't see the wind, but that is real
> Irreducible Complexity (There's nothing as irreducibly complex as God)
> The bible says god is real
> Einstein believed in god

Answer 2

Study the Eternal Sin.


Figure out why you can doubt the Father and the Son, but never doubt the Holy Spirit. It is figuring out how the Holy Spirit is different from the Father and the Son. That difference is you, if you don't believe me, test it yourself. It's the surest way to know if you are truly saved.

Only blasphemy of the Holy Spirit cannot be forgiven.
Even a lot of Christians don't fully understand that the Holy Spirit of God is with you always.

The eternal sin allows you to question the Bible. Once you understand the true importance of the Holy Spirit, you can understand the scripture like never before. The difference is knowing God.

By the way, you can't "convince" atheists anything. You can only show them how to find the God within. You cannot force anyone to believe, a person has to FIND God's eternal presence to KNOW that they have been saved.

Eternal blessings for all who know Him.
Thank you Jesus

You have just to present the gospel, and ask God to manifest to them.

Nothing better than they experiencing the power of God (or conviction) by themselves. So, it is testifying and praying for them!

OK, I know there are a lot of arguments, and very good ones. It is good to say the true ideas, to debunk the misinformation atheists have. But, as it happens with many issues, people just give intellectual "excuses", many times. Therefore, nothing better that when they experience the power of God by themselves. Many atheists have just a lack of information, therefore they get the wrong conclusions. But many others are not just intellectually but also spiritually deceived (even if they don't believe in the supernatural); therefore, prayer is a must..

Answer 4

It isn't hard really, all you have to do is to find evidence that the events in the bible like the flood, exodus, sun moving backwards and/stopping, the temple curtain being ripped, the star of Bethlehem etc... actually happened.

Some sort of hard evidence that god actuall exist would be even better; I suppose finding the orgiinal 10 commandments inscribed by his finger in a way that no human technology would suffice. Writings about Jesus, his life and Resurrection, that can be dated to the time of Jesus would be most excellent as well.

Anything else that matches the definition of scientific evidnce would certainly help.

Answer 5

Sigh, That was one of the reasons I hated religion class.
Off the record- you really can't unless you're a highly trained theologian speaking to a casual Atheist [ie someone who does not spend all their time researching to debunk god]. And even then, it probably wouldn't convert them and would mostly make them think- mainly because professionals of any class use specialized syntax, especially when debating in their field, so half the words used wouldn't be understood.
In anyyyy case, just write down stuff about who you'd tell them it's their eternal souls etc and the souls of their offspring I guess. I really can't think of anything that a Christian coud tell me to convert me at all. Honestly, your religion teacher probably won't try and test out you hypothesis in your paper and give you a failing grade if they don't work.

Answer 6

You need a whole ******* page? ****, you got something to convince me there is a god, it should take about two sentence. You saying more than that then well, you are just rambling about crap. There is nothing you can say to me to convince me, and I'll tell you why. Anything you can tell me is something I've heard before, and it hasn't worked yet. The only thing you could show or tell me is proof and actualy evidence, which thus far, has never happened, and I doubt you are the one who has it.

Answer 7

Hon, this will probably not help you. Our pastor says that it is useless to talk to someone about God when they do not want to hear about God. He says that you should always testify as to what Christ has done in your life, and if they don't want to hear it, leave them alone until they do want to hear it. When they say that they do not want to hear it, or they don't care, or whatever their stock answer is, telling them more is the definition of casting pearls before swine. Find someone that wants to hear the good news of Christ.

Answer 8

That's a nice little exercise but in all honesty there is nothing you can say to an Atheist to make them think that there is a god of any kind.

Answer 9

Absolutely nothing. Only God can change a heart.
