Can you prove God is real?

[PeterJens]

Can you prove the existence of God without using the existence of God as proof He exists?

In what you would call an absolute sense, we cannot prove we exist.

If we cannot "prove" we exist, anything else becomes equally unprovable.

But life is based on what we are inside, and how we view the world. People fall for the most obvious
lies that their own emotions serve up, which largely involve avoiding responsibility and facing ones
own relationships.

Jesus speaks to me because He speaks to my heart and things I care about. The more I look at His
words the more they echo in my soul. That is my confirmation of who Jesus is.

Romans1:20 "For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."

I don't have to prove that God is real - He reveals Himself to us!! It's called general revelation. For example, He reveals Himself through nature - that which He created. Look at a sunset, a majestic mountain a new born baby and God has revealed Himself. They are "clearly" seen! Therefore man has no excuse because God reveals Himself to all and He proves that He is real. Be Blessed!

Good job I was going to cite this verse. Now many unbelievers will exchange the revelation of God for the revelation of science and claim that evolution is equal to creation but this is a lie. They will receive many far fetched theories that strain the bounds of believability rather than accept the simple truth that God made the heavens and the earth. All things that were made were made by Him.

The answer is by Faith we accept Jesus.

BUT, on the other hand God already knew even before He created anything who would accept Him as their Lord and Savior. Its totally out of our hands. There is nothing we can do to convince God to accept us and give us our Salvation.

We are Chosen by God, we do not chose God!

What If the person Is obedient to faith?

Romans 1:16-18
King James Version(KJV)

16.)For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

17.)For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

18.)For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

.........sigh..........I had such a good response to the emboldened comment.......but it would probably seem offensive to some here, and not respectful lf the seriousness of the medical emergency you suffered.......sigh.....oh well......

(I'll file it away for anudder time)

No worries my brother, I have yet to endure such a fate. I appreciate your kind, respectful heart but you can always shoot straight with me. It's all good.

Don't quote me here, but, I'm pretty sure using a photo of something you don't know as your Avatar is a violation of one of the "lesser Commandments......."

Can you proof that he doesnt??

Only God Himself could say: "I do not exist!"

You don't have to be a great human being to affirm that there is a creator - it's a matter of simple logic* -, but only an infinite and spiritual being would be able to search the whole entire infinite universe and come up with the conclusion that there is no God.

*simple logic:the smallest created thing proves that there is a creator.

Many many people echo these sentiments.

There are some things I may not know
There are some places I can't go
But I am sure of this one thing
My God is real for I can feel Him in my soul

My God is real, real in my soul
My God is real for He has washed and made me whole
His love for me is like pure gold
My God is real for I can feel Him in my soul

Some folks may doubt, some folks may scorn
Well, they can all go on, just leave me alone
But ask for me, I'll take God's part
My God is real for I can feel Him in my heart

My God is real, real in my soul
My God is real for He has washed and made me whole
His love for me is like pure gold
My God is real for I can feel Him in my soul

 

[jamesg1951]

You may ask me how I know
My Lord is real
You may doubt the things I say
And doubt the way I feel
But I know He’s real today
He’ll always be
I can feel His Hand in mind
And that’s enough for me
I will never walk alone
He holds my hand
He will guide each step I take
And if I fall I know He’ll understand
Til the day He tells me why
He loves me so
I can feel His Hand in mine
That’s all I need to know
Other friends that I love so
May pass me by
Other friends may never see
The teardrops in my eye
Other friends may never know
The pain I bear
Every tear he wipes away
And all my heartaches share
I will never walk alone
He holds my hand
He will guide each step I take
And if I fall I know He’ll understand
Til the day He tells me why
He loves me so
I can feel His Hand in mine
That’s all I need to know
I can feel His Hand in mine
That’s all I need to know

How could you prove a cow exists, quite easily because you can see it. But if you walked through fields and there were no cows in sight how would you know it had been there, because it would leave behind evident clues like cow muck so then that is proof the cow had been in the field. I think believing in God is the same, you cannot see him but you can pick up things to tell you his existence is real.

:haha: as it is written
:read:
Juan: 6. 60. Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

61. When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
62. What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

63. It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

64. But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
65. And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
