Why do you believe in God?

Answer 1

God believes in me.

Answer 2

To me, a significant study of just about anything in our material world leads to the question of design or chance. I am also not entirely sold on the word design. What single word could be used to symbolize "causes to be"? The order and structure of it, everything, seams to perfect. What would Vegas odds be on us just happening out of star dust or if you prefer material elements in the known universe? When I say us, I not only mean the physical us but, the mind of us also. According to a Noble Prize winner for Medical science, Gerald M Edelman M.D., Ph. D, if we started counting every connection or synapses in our brain at the rate of one per second we would finish in 32 million years. It’s not just the number that is amazing but each synapse may be used for an untold number of purposes. Exactly how the third party experience of the remembered present arises from this biological system is a matter that far brighter and further educated minds than mine are convinced is the most significant challenge for science. I am further convinced that to study any branch of science will lead you to the same question. Religion is defined as a means of reconnecting to God. I am not sure that any of the organized Religions hasn't lost its goal and replaced it with petty human social functions and dogma. However, I do take solace in the fact that, for me, this life is not random and has significance, which significance is for me to determine.

Thanks for the question.....

So the one line answer to your question is this; there are significant unknowns that are currently beyond our ability to understand via science and may forever be beyond our ability, I gave that a name...."God" and in him I find complete love and understanding.

Answer 3

Because God wanted me to. That's the way it works, and it's amazing that people don't say it that way, like with some of your answers. God wants certain people from the world. Not all people, but only a few. He draws them to Him through Jesus and by His Spirit. That's the way it works. All I had to do is start trusting Him. That was left up to me.

begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,
and was made man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
