If someone see you and/or goes to your house will know that you believe in God without asking you because there are a lot of things that shows it.

For example, if someone hear me talking they will know that i believe in God because when i make plans i always end the sentece with "if God wants or give me life to do it"

If someone goes to my house they will find a bible and some other books about God.

Which characteristicts, or words or things will find someone if see or hear you and goes to your house that make evident that you believe in God?
 
Shelves of Bibles, commentaries, praise music and christian sheet music probably. :) More importantly, it might be the things they DON'T see in my home. I'm very careful about what I bring into my home and my life.

Now that I think about it, I hope they can tell from just being around me. :) I hope I'm reflecting Him.
 
If someone enters my home, they will quickly see my praise and worship music on the end table, and my Bibles and commentaries sitting on the dinner table. Since I live alone the minor clutter doesn't bother me, and if I were to put them anywhere else I'd have to always drag them out and put them away every time I use them since I play my guitar in the living room and study at the table.

Most of my crew at work know that I am a christian, and some of them occasionally choose to ask my advice on different things because they know that I truly care about the people that work under me and won't steer them wrong.
 
To me, things are not evident to show that I believe in the Almighty God.So my works and deeds justified who I am and who I believe in. The Bible says by their works you will know them.I believe in doing what the words of God says and doing the words of God in my life is my evident.
 
If people see me wear a Cross that should be evident of my faith, of ourse I also wear a Star of David as a reflection of my descendancy from the lineage of King David of Israel and Judah although most people don't easily figure that out cause I don't usually ever necessarily say so (but I will say so if im asked about Star of David which seems to get more attention than Cross although some people have asked me why I am wearing both Cross and Star of David or what is up with that).

Of course inside my bedroom you can see Christian books including the Bible of course and I do have Christian music CDs as well, I also have loads of Christian DVDs as well :)

Of course one can notice my willingness to help people out regardless of whether or not said person is a Christian or not (and you never know the non-Christian could decide to convert after noticing being helped out, not going to say that is what will happen but I am not gonna say that is not happening either, only the Lord knows for sure on this if a person is going to decide to convert or not).
 
A bunch of bibles, christian-based tracts, books about maintaining faith, little plaques with theistic symbolism...

heh, I guess I can be a little misleading since I don't believe in any gods. ^^;
 
Its not what I have in the house its the lack of things I have in the house like; No alcahol, no cigerrettes, no porn or racey magazines , no party girl outfits in my closet,
 
I have things that show that I'm obviously a Christian like books, and my bible and inspirational art.

But in all honestly you can walk into someones has that has religious objects all over, but they aren't living a Godly life like they should be. In all honesty it doesn't matter what objects and materialistic things you have, what matters is how you act and what you do. Because people can see right through the materialistic possessions we have, but they can't see through solid acts of loving God and spreading His love to others.
 
I have at least one picture of Christ in every room(even the bathrooms). A bible sits on the desk in the living room, the words family, faith, love, hope are scattered throughout the house. My house is neat and clean because if Christ or God were to come to my house today, I wouldn't be ashamed to let them in. There is no doubt God is in my house.
 
Since I don't have my own house and I live with my parents, my house doesn't say alot about my faith...my mom still has a lot of her old tradition catholic decorations around. If you go into my room however, you will find two bibles, some christian books(and other books), and no catholic decorations, so maybe that would be a clue. :)
If you met me, you would probably find out I'm christian wether because I say it or because it comes into the conversation that I go to church, or that I wouldn't do something because I don't feel it's right. I really really hope I can reflect Jesus's light through my life :). (Reminds me of that Phil Wickham's song, The Sun and the Moon)

I havent thought in this, but youre right, there are a lot of things that I dont have in my house that show that i believe in God :)
 
I have a framed picture of Peyton Manning that says MVP of 2013 Super Bowl. It tells everyone I'm a man of great faith. :)
 
We have DVD's, CD's, and books all over the house by Joyce Meyer, John Hagee, and other folks along with our Bibles. I always make plans and end with "God-willing." I will admit that people can't always tell, but I sure try to make it known without physically having to tell people. I also have Christian apparel.
