Why and Why Not?

If you believe in God, why do you? If you don't believe in God, why not?

My belief in God was established when I was really young. In a way, I think it's easier for me to keep on believing than it might be for someone who wasn't raised with that belief. It's also quite easy for me to look around me and find millions of blessings and pieces of evidence that point to God as Creator and Lord of my life!! I feel for someone who has to come at in reverse, seeking the evidence that proves His existence. But I pray He makes it easier for them by showing His rich grace and mercy in countless ways.

He revealed Himself to me 33 years ago.. Jesus is alive.

I believe in God because He believes in me.

He felt I was worth His Son's life.

I really need to be more about the business of living out my belief by letting Him live in me.

For anything to exist at all, something has to have always existed. The laws of physics indicate that the physical universe has not always existed (and that it will not exist forever). Therefore, something beyond the physical universe is responsible for the existence of everything we can see. Something spiritual is responsible for the existence of everything physical. That "something" is actually someone: God.

In a similar argument, non-living material does not reproduce living organisms. Life comes from life. For us to be alive today, something must have been a self-existent lifeform, an eternal lifeform which could produce all other forms of life. The eternal source of life is God.

Those are two reasons I believe in the existence of God.

I like that Terry.. well said!

Of course (IMO) logic and reasoning have very little to do with why people believe or don't believe.. faith is an issue of the heart.

Kinny, that is such a great question, "Why do you believe in God" or even "Do you believe in God"
Most people who claim to be Christian will answer "yes I believe in God" ,and can give you an answer why, and most differ one from the other. but most Christians don't believe in a complete God, they believe in their God. A God that will let them get away with not really loving him, they claim their God's grace will let them live their life as they wish and still collect their reward, (If you believe in God you have to show it, If you love God, let him know it) I love God because he first loved me, and I don't love anything I don't believe in.
I hope for you and your family a Merry Christmas and a great New Year. God Bless

I believe in God, because 27 years ago I encountered the living God Jesus Christ in a personal way. He made Himself known to me and gave me a new life, eyes to see and ears to hear.
He forgave me my sins, cleansed the cup on the inside and made His residence in my body, just like the Scripture said, 'that, he who is in Christ is a new creation, a brand new man, old things have passed away and behold all things are new'.

It is one thing to only read it in the Bible and another thing experiencing it and the latter is better.
Yes! That's the life transforming power of my JESUS!
