How did god prove to you that he is real?
it is a personal thing - God and you know what will convince you that God exists
He is a very personal and loving God - so you and Him need to work out what it will take for you to KNOW He exists
this is very easy for God to do - He promises that IF we seek Him with all our hearts HE will let us find Him - Jeremiah 29:13
i was serious - i wanted to know for sure - and i wanted real proof
God supplied because i tried with all my heart to know the truth - and i was willing to push it to find out - i wanted to settle it once for all
the thing is only God can convince you - what i needed to convince me may not be convincing to you - and likewise what may convince you may not convince another - so it really is a personal interaction with God that is needed
and if you are hard to convince - no problem - as long as you are sincere God will do what it takes to convince you
God is no one's lackey - but He loves us so much that He will go to great lengths to help us know He exists
and even once you are convinced God is real you may have doubts about the veracity of the Bible - but same thing - God can explain and convince you point by point that He means what He says - via scientific proof or whatever means it takes for you to KNOW for yourself
this is the difference between KNOWING God for yourself vs being religious and subscribing to a religious system
now one thing to know is not everyone is like you and i - needing proof God exists - we are more like doubting Thomas who refused to believe unless he had some proof - there were many others who believed what God said without proof - but God loves us all - skeptics and believers - so HE is big enough to reach all who want to be reached
God bless you my friend
