You Christians say that Jesus is God.
You say it is true because you actually feel it and have a relationship with Him.
You say that He has helped you so many times and He speaks through your soul and you know that it is real.
Here comes the contradiction.
You say you have faith in you belief.
You say you have faith because you can't prove His existence.
Yet you claim that your belief is 100% real.
I don't need faith for believing that I have five fingers since I can see and feel them. Fact don't need faith to prove it.
If you say God 100% exists despite not seeing Him then you claimed God's existence as a fact. Why do you need faith if you already are so sure He exists?
So is your belief in God 100% or less?
If it is 100% then it is a fact that God exists and faith is irrevalent. That is because you already proved His existence by your relationship with Him as a fact thus needing no more faith.
So is it 100% or less?
And explain how faith is essential?

Believing in God is as simple as believing in the wind. I cant see the wind but i can feel it and see evidence of its existence.

Totally probability!
No proof Jesus ever existed. Religion invented faith because it is so short on facts.

UPDATE, A young Woman: I believe in the sunrise etc, because I've seen it everyday.
Have not seen God, Jesus, etc. I am a Deist because I do actually believe in God/intelligent design. Perhaps the word "believe" is misleading I "conclude" that God exists because of Nature and science.
I have not seen God, there is no proof the the Bible is true or that Jesus ever lived. I've asked for proof of these things since I've been on this site. In fact, I have visited many other sites frequented by "Christians" and other such religious individuals. No such proof is offered because none exists.
Religion invented faith because it has no facts. Your assertion of faith proves nothing as millions have just as strong of faith in the opposite view.

LOL you are precious. Do you rely on the sunrise tomorrow? Do you rely on air to breathe.. hopefully water and food to sustain you? Ground to walk on? It is faith that those things will happen for you. Faith is belief in things unseen and unknown.
I believe the sun will come up tomorrow because I believe God will cause the world to spin at least 24 more hours. I could be wrong about that. tomorrow could be the very last day ..but in anycase..I believe in God even if you do not like it. Faith does not depend on us. It is built into us. Even into you.

Christians don't have faith in their belief.
Christians have faith in God.
Faith is a gift from God. You have to receive a gift or it has no benefit to you.
Hebrews 11: 1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

God does exist as a fact. Don't you have faith that your five fingers will always be there on your hand? God does exist and the faith is that he is always there for me and working in my life everyday. To have belief you must have faith. It is all there in the Bible. Give it a try.

Actually the bible says that God has given us the faith to believe. Faith is simply the hope that what we believe in will happen. Everyone has faith in something or someone.
Who do you have faith in? Remember man will always let you down we are imperfect ( scientists, pastors, best friends doesnt matter) God will never let you down !

I believe because of two things. One the Tradition that has been handed down over 2000 years. And second, my experience. And if people have a problem with my beliefs. Thats cool. I tell them to **** Off.

I have faith because I have seen.
In the Bible Jesus tells Thomas that he has seen Jesus and therefore Thomas believes.
Then Jesus said Blessed are they that have not seen and yet believe.

You are seriously messing with the language. Most folks believe with considerable certainty that the world is very old. None the less, that is NOT a fact. No matter how certain they are! YHVH exists, even if most everyone denies it. At the time of the flood, only 8 people got in the ark. Millions and millions drowned. 40 million frenchmen can certainly be wrong!
