I believe whole heartedly in the existence of God. Now, proving it to someone else would be the real trick.

Great answers, not necessarily sound reasoning, but great answers anyway
I believe in God, the organization of His creation leaves no doubt that an intelligent being with infinite thought process, designed this world. I believe in God, a man named Jesus was here on this earth about 2000 years ago. He is historically documented as having been here. Witnesses to His life gave accounts of "the happenings". Our world, even for others outside of the Christian faith, has been radically changed by this man Jesus. Jesus stated that we could know that God exists by looking at Him (Jesus) and by putting our faith in Him. Jesus stated that he explained or revealed God, the Father.

Back to basics...Jesus said that even those who don't believe in God would know of his existance by His creation. Our faith goes beyond that to believing in the One whom God has sent (Jesus).

On to other things....yesterday was my first day here! I came with a problem. Seeking some fellowship and looking for some prayer. God worked, in one day, a new creation in my life. He continues to create in me and make me more of what He would like me to be. I am grateful for the ability to come here and fellowship on a moments notice.

God Bless you with His truth.

All you have to do to disprove Christianity is to disprove the resurrection. I have seen enough proof for the resurrection (and not much against it!) to make me sure what I believe is true.

i have absolutly no doubt about it. i have seen miricles, and huge changes in my own life which leaves me sure of God

another good read for proving the existance of God is "The Case For a Creator - Lee Strobel" this is an awsome book, you'll need some interest in science to make the most of it, i highly reccomend it!

I find it difficult for a person to attempt to deny the existence of a God (or gods). The hard part isn't believing in the supernatural, the hard part is to place faith into reality and carry out the will of The Supreme Being. It has become apparent to me that the God in which I have found in is the very same God from the Old and New Testament.

I think that God is a construct of man. Man, who needed answers. Dishonest men, who decided that if they gave answers to common men and women, and attributed them to God, they would reap great earthly treasures. Dishonest men, who wanted to be special. Kind of like some politicians today. :)

The problem is that over the years since the Bible was written and codified each generation has seen it in a different way. With each new viewpoint, God has been subject to the changes that these viewpoints have brought about.

All things considered, I find it pretty unlikely that there isn't someone (or at a stretch something) up there. Out there. Whatever. I suppose it's possible that I may lose my Christian faith (possible but very unlikely), but I doubt I'll ever go over to wholesale atheism, it just seems too unlikely to me.

That said, there's always room for doubt.

A recent book: "The Probability of God: A Simple Calculation That Proves the Ultimate Truth." by physicist Steven Unwin found through calculations that the mathematical probability that God exists is about 66.7%. There are those that have 100% for or against the existance of God. The difference being 'faith'. What are your thoughts?

I will agree that the difference for or against the existence of God is FAITH. :)

I have no doubt in my mind that God exists.. and on top of that. If you are a christian and you said "probably" or "not sure" or anything like that. then you need to ask the Lord for faith because He does exist.

Yes, God exists, more accurately though, God consists. The fact that we exist is proof. In order for one thing to exists, something, or Someone would have always consisted.

If you think about science, for every effect there must be a cause that is at least equal to or greater than the effect. For the universe to simply 'leap into existance' with the big bang, then there must be a cause, that cause would be God.

The fact that we are just the right distance from the star we call the sun to give our planet that we call earth just the right balance of heat/cold. The fact that there is a tilt to the earth that gives summer/winter so that plants have seasons to grow and wither. The fact that all of this happens there had to be a designer.

Then, the miracle of life, much too complex to just happen. It had to have a designer who designed the eye, the leg, the hand the brain the heart and the soul. Then to give us the knowledge of communications so that we can speak and communicate. A designer who designed everything from the smallest electron in an atom to rocks, to planets, to the entire universe.

The knowledge of man is very limited, we know very little, but our knowledge has increased so dramatically these past 1.5 centuries compared to the 30 or so previous centuries that that fact is not even understandable but by a select few. And we still know so little. We make discoveries, only to find out that while we were on the right track, we were wrong... the egg for instance.

Do a lot of looking inside you, and you'll come to realize that God is the Creator of everything, your shoe would not be here if it wasn't for God. Ponder on that for a bit.

I hope and pray that this has helped even a minute bit.

A few years ago, a professor who was also an atheist was challenging some of his Christian students during class because of their belief in the God of the Bible. In fact, the students related how this professor seemed to make it his job to convince them of the absurdity of Christianity to the point of harassment. Near the end of the semester a few of the Christian students asked the professor if he would be willing to debate the subject. He heartily agreed, believing that if he could win the debate he would once and for all rid these students of their silly belief in God. What follows is the transcript of that debate. “A” will denote the atheist and “C” the Christian. (The atheist had his degree in biology and the Christian had two earned doctorate degrees, one in philosophy.) The atheist was allowed to go first. 1

A: You and I used to believe in Santa Clause when we were children. But we no longer believe in him, do we? It is the same way with God. God is for childish minds. No adult should believe in Him any more than believing in Santa Clause. You see, there is no God. He does not exist any more than does Santa. I know the Bible states “the fool says there is no God,” but I say that only a fool believes in God. This is all I have to say. Atheism is simply a matter of giving up childish beliefs.

At this point he sat down and the Christian was asked to give his opening remarks.

C: In order for me to make my opening remarks I was hoping Professor “A” would assist me and come up to the blackboard. (He agreed and came forward.) Would you please take this piece of chalk and make a dot on the blackboard. It does not have to be big. (He made the dot.) Now professor “A” this dot represents you. Would you now draw a circle around the dot with the dot in the center. (Professor makes the circle.) The inside of the circle represents all that you know; all you have studied and experienced; where you have been; and what you have seen and heard. The outside of the circle represents what you do not know; what you have not heard, studied, or experienced; where you have not been; and what you have not seen and heard. Are you okay with this so far?

A: Yes. This is amusing. I am interested to see where you are going with this. Surely you do not believe that this little exercise is going to disprove my point?

C: Now, obviously in this high tech age, there will be more outside the circle than inside the circle. Since your degree is in Biology, would you claim to know a great deal about quantum physics or economics?

A: No, I admit that I am limited in my knowledge.

C: Given that this is the case, how much is outside the circle in comparison with what is inside?

A: I cannot even give a good guess.

C: What I mean is that if you walked in the Library of Congress, how many of the subjects would you say you knew?

A: Well, I guess I would have to admit that I would only have a fraction of the knowledge that is even recorded, probably in the decimals.

C: Agreed. We would all have to admit, as the good professor has done, that our knowledge would be something like .000001%. But for the purpose of this illustration let’s say that the knowledge you have in your field as well as all the other knowledge you have obtained on other subjects comes to 1% of all the knowledge out there. You would agree that this is being generous?

A: Yes.

C: Would you please write 1% inside the circle? Remember this represents all the knowledge you have based upon study and experience. Since you have 1% knowledge what is the amount of knowledge you do not have?

A: That would be 99%.

C: Correct. Please write 99% outside the circle. Thank you. Now remember that which is outside the circle is what you admit you do not know. So here is my question: Since you admit that your knowledge is very limited, how can you KNOW that God does not exist in the 99% outside the circle of your knowledge and experience? What if God lived in South Yemen? Have you ever been to South Yemen?

A: No, I have never been to South Yemen. This line of questioning is not fair.

C: You see the point of my opening remarks is that it is philosophically and logically absurd to state such a universal negative as, “there is no God.” The only one who could say that there are no gods of any shape or size in the universe throughout all time is God Himself. A person would have to be in all places at all times with all knowledge in order to be able to say “there is no God.” In short, you would have to be omnipresent and omniscient to have such knowledge. And in order to pull the whole thing off you would have to be omnipotent as well. So I will ask you again, is it possible for God to exist outside the 1% circle of your limited knowledge and experience?

A: Well, yes. To say otherwise would be (“C” interjects “BLIND FAITH”.) I would have to admit that God could exist outside the circle. But I think that it is impossible to know if He does. This debate is not fair. I did not know I would have to deal with this man.

C: You said if I heard correctly, that it is logically possible for God to exist. Therefore, it would be utterly illogical to say, “there is no God” since you would have to be God to know that there is no God, which would defeat your own thesis. Therefore, must we not conclude that your belief is totally based on faith, and a blind unproven faith at that?

A: Yes, I admit it. You see, I am really not an atheist. I am an agnostic. I don’t know if God exists and neither do you!

C: Well then, I have won the debate. You have presented yourself to these students all semester as an atheist and now you have admitted in front of them that atheism is absurd. But did I hear you correctly; you now claim to be an agnostic?

A: I did not know what I was getting into when I agreed to this debate. I don’t think this is fair at all.

C: Since we have refuted atheism together and shown it to be a blind leap of faith perhaps you would be willing to discuss agnosticism.

A: I am done. This debate is over... (At this point he walked out of the room.)

C: I hope that everyone has enjoyed tonight’s debate. In terms of his original thesis professor “A” had to admit that his proposition was absurd and based on BLIND FAITH. Maybe the next question should be, “Why does the professor not want to believe in God?” We will let God answer that question Himself....

Romans 1:18-32, “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man----and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.”

Psalms 14:1 “The fool has said in his heart, there is no God.”

The bible may say this but woe be it to the man who thinks he has the right to say it, to call another person a fool or even to quote the bible to tell another person he is a fool. Only God has the right to call a person a fool, if indeed he would or did that.

If God did not exist then nothing would exist. Where did everything come from? What is the uncaused cause? How does something come from nothing? These questions cannot be answered unless a Being Who transcends the laws of time and space exists.

Well, i'm saying that there is no possibility that there is a god.
I'm just having a problem of that if god created everything, then what created him?

So your problem is not whether or not God exists, but how He got created. Or it is more like who created God and if we can't do such a thing, then it is not possible.

But that doesn't sound like very good logic to me. Any being who can create everything certainly wouldn't need to be created. That seems like a more logical thought to me.

IT's all part of the plan. The last time we had world peace and all worked together, we built a tower, and our languages were confounded by Them.

genesis 11:6-7

2000 years ago we musta been on the verge of world peace again, so They came down and made sure we'd NEVER agree on ANYTHING ever again.

I'd say it was pretty effective, don't you?

Not to tell someone else that they have the proof but it's up to them to have anti-proof, to the unseen proof, they say they have.

As a Christian who believes the Bible to be literally true, I am certain God does not exists. I learned this from RC Sproul who explains in his Foundations tape series that the greatest tragedy he could imagine would be that God exists.

We exist because God is. As eloquently put by the God-man Jesus, "Before Abraham was, I am." Not "I was", I AM.

Then again, what'n'll happened at the incarnation somewhat befuddles me. Perhaps God did not exist prior to Abraham, but does so now, in the Person of Jesus Christ. Or perhaps there are limitations to human language and human thought that don't permit full comprehension.

Either way, saying "God does not exist." with a big well worn Bible in your hand always starts off an interesting conversation.

There is more evidense that Jesus Christ existed died and was raised again then there is about Ceasar even being alive. Read "Darwin on Trial," great book to disprove the theory of evolution.

I always found it quite amusing in science lessons at school. We'd go straight from "energy cannot be created or destroyed", which we were taught to repeat by heart, to (a few lessons later on) "x billion years ago, a load of energy was created", which seems to me to be the essence of the big bang.

My teacher didn't seem to see the contradiction...

66.7%? I like those odds. ;)

But in reality there is either a God or there isn't (laughs trying to imagine a 66.7% God :P) and I am Christian and believe He exists, I will have to vote 100%.

Still, it's rather flattering. Unwin found that it was more probable for a God to exist than for a God to not exist. Makes me feel like I am making a pretty safe bet. xP

The Bible says that God will frustrate the knowledge of men.

It is always interesting to watch TV shows like "The Discovery Channel" or "National Geographic" and have some "experts" dive into the "truth". I like to change the title of those shows to include "and Conspiracy".

Someone writes a book and great numbers of our fellow humans believe every word that is said. From DaVinci codes to secrets of the Bible man is guessing what the mind of God is all about.

It all gets down to faith. You either have it or you don't. :amen:

Would you care to give some quote as to the whereabouts of what is highlighted in red. People have minds. I say things like being safe in the palm of God's hand but I don't actually believe God is just a big person with a hand.

A recent book: "The Probability of God: A Simple Calculation That Proves the Ultimate Truth." by physicist Steven Unwin found through calculations that the mathematical probability that God exists is about 66.7%. There are those that have 100% for or against the existance of God. The difference being 'faith'. What are your thoughts?

I had posted:

As a Christian who believes the Bible to be literally true, I am certain God does not exists. I learned this from RC Sproul who explains in his Foundations tape series that the greatest tragedy he could imagine would be that God exists.

We exist because God is. As eloquently put by the God-man Jesus, "Before Abraham was, I am." Not "I was", I AM.

Then again, what'n'll happened at the incarnation somewhat befuddles me. Perhaps God did not exist prior to Abraham, but does so now, in the Person of Jesus Christ. Or perhaps there are limitations to human language and human thought that don't permit full comprehension.

Either way, saying "God does not exist." with a big well worn Bible in your hand always starts off an interesting conversation.

JR

Isn't that a bit like picking at straws to say that God does not exist because He is I Am. I believe that Jesus said somewhere "I Am, I Am that I Am". I Am exists everywhere.

We believe that God is transcendant, that His "existence" is of a quality different than ours. He is self-sufficient, He did not come out of some pre-existant something. He is the First Cause, the Eternal One, ect ect...

To Ex-Ist comes from a compounding of the Latin prefix "ex" and the verb "stere" (to stand). It means that the standing of our being is dependant (can only stand) by coming out of (being created) another. God is. As He is independent of time, you can't even properly say He was or will be. All monotheists believe this. It is what sets our idea of God as being Holy (transcendant) and not some pantheistic force of nature or whatever. It is remarkable that all 3 monotheistic religions, constituting some 3/4 of the world's population, trace back to a single man:Abraham. That alone is such an amazing "coincidence" it ought to give non-believers pause.

Now Christianity is indisputably the most convoluted of the 3 monotheistic systems. With Christianity, God is an Eternal Trinity. As if that weren't difficult enough, One of these 3 co-equal Eternal people entered time and took on a human body, being born of a virgin and so on. Because of this, I suppose, it could be said that God exists now in the person of Jesus Christ, as God was able to humble Himself willingly and for our sake divest Himself of His Divine attribute. Thus we have Jesus, who while on earth became tired, hungry, was surprised and not omniscient. Now this is way complicated.

Which is one of the reasons this former agnostic has been a fundamentalist for 30 years now. As an agnostic it seemed reasonable to me that IF there trulay was a Creator God, that I should not be able to fully understand this God. Now, I understand pantheism. I certainly can understand the God of modern Judaism and of the Koran. But the idea of God as presented in the Bible and the Nicean Creed is way out there. More than I can understand, for sure. So it attracted me. The more I thought about it, as an agnostic, the more like Quantum Mechanics the idea of the Trinity seemed. Very odd, counterintuitive and yet...not truly contradictory, just very very odd.

Well, it is a very strange universe we live in. It stands to reason a very strange God created it. I know of nothing stranger than the Christian concept of the Trinity and the incarnation.

Truth IS stranger than fiction. Before Abraham, God did not exist, He is. That's straight from the Christ's mouth.

What God's present Being is like is, well, you figure it out. My money is on that He is and exists too. That somehow, and don't ask me how, God has managed to be Eternal and temporal at the same time.Weird...

God is. God exists. No difference. Just nitpicking. There are more important things to do than nitpick about the difference in God is and God exists.......Just in my own humble opinion. I would rather talk about more interesting things.

I will repeat. No conservative monotheistic theologian using precise language believes God exists. Pantheists believe God exists.

The Christian conception of God is that He is a Transcendant Being (or Beings, depending on what exactly you refer to). A transcendant, Eternal Being does not ex-ist, He doe not come out of something else.

God does not exist, God is. As Jesus put it in His clearest assertion of Divinity, "Before Abraham was. I Am." Not "I Was", I AM." That was a very deliberate verb tense, previously used at the burning bush incident.

All other ancient "gods" evolved from some pre-existant chaotic matter. Not so in Genesis. In stark contrast to all other ancient books, Genesis starts, with God first, THEN Creation.

Now, go tell your pastor you just figured out that the Bible says God does not exist, and find out if he knows. If nothing else it will be an interesting conversation

:confused:

How is that scary or even bad? Anyone who is intellectually honest with themselves will realize that we can't truly know of the existence of God with 100% certainty. Remember, in the scientific/mathematical realm, faith and personal experiences that can't be replicated count for nothing. God can certainly be reasoned to exist barring either of those, but there are very few, if any things that can be proven with 100% certainty using pure reason. There is ALWAYS the possibility, however small, that something is true in defiance of all logic and circumstantial evidence. Only irrefutable, hard evidence can be used to prove something beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Now, that said, I would personally place my certainty of God's existence at a much higher percentage than 66.7% (which should be obvious, since that percentage is only using pure mathematical evidence), but I would be lying if I said I was 100% sure, so I chose probably. I'm not ashamed of that.
