Do You Believe In God Or Not ? by Shyluck(m): 3:20pm On Jul 18, 2021
Tell us why you believe or don't believe in God.
For me,I believe in God because I have experienced serious divine protection which I believe couldn't have come from anywhere else but from the Almighty God.

I believe in God. Why? I haven’t seen him neither do I believe “what” the Men of God in Nigeria say.

But I have countless years experienced “energy” right before a major breakthrough. I have experienced calm after mouthing a “prayer” to the universe..

I didn’t get what I wanted that day but I got it weeks later. If God is that unexplainable “energy” that I have felt countlessly, then yes I believe in His Existence. And no, your pastor or priest cannot experience Him for you.

No I don't believe because the god hypothesis doesn't explain anything. Besides if one exists it is pointless believing, it should be clear that a god exists just as it is clear the sun exists.

undecided undecided And your unbelief explains everything. Comedian, so believing is for something or someone that doesn't exist. Do you people think at all, or just declare by wasted faith?

His unbelief definitely cannot explain anything. Unbelief is simply lack of belief which is a result of lack of evidence, you can see the sun, no priest need to explain that the sun exist. If you cant give cystal clear evidence for the existence of your god, then you dont need to blame those that are wise enough to say it is a myth, cos that is what it is.

And to the topic - I don't belief in god or supernatural.

Reasons

(1) Lack of concrete evidence.

(2) Too many contradictions in the concept of god and supernatural

NB. Pls don't try to bring evidence from the bible as I have been a bible study teacher. Thanks

He said that he doesn't believe BECAUSE the god hypothesis doesn't explain anything. If like you say, his unbelief definitely cannot explain anything either. You and him should stop disturbing and distorting. Be wise.

I believe in God because i'm seeing the fulfilment of His promises regarding the group of people worshiping Him {John 17:20-23} and how His Holy Spirit is working with them so that all the qualities of God's Holy Spirit {Galatians 5:22-23} is obvious in their gathering! Matthew 5:13-16; 7:16-18

As you said "YOU CAN SEE.

So therefore, You Also See and Saw that No Thing creates itself, A house, does not build itself, an animal does not create itself and man never created itself.

You also See and Saw that the act of creating any diverse and different things from non existence to existence is Always Done by A Conscious and Will Full Act of A Creator Person eg, the car, phone, house which you also see and saw "Crystal Clear",

But again, even in the face of these evidence which YOU HAVE SEEN , you can always exercise your right to invoke blindness with BIAS and IMBALANCE!

You are not making any sense ogbeni, it is you that believe something exist that need to explain and covince others about its existence, and not the person that does not believe because you lack clear evidence. Atheists are not claiming to know everything, they are only saying god explanation does not make sense and as a result they don't accept it.

If Liars did not exist in this world, contradictions and lies would have no place in this world.

But if you choose to be lazy and refuse to exercise diligently your time and facility towards distilling and filtering the lies from The Truth, that is in exercise of your right to sleep while others go to work.

To patronize you, YOU DO SEE, AS YOU CLAIM TO SEE, that I am a creation like your car, phone and mannequin, so the only things I know and must know are my immediate environment!

Nah! Atheist are simply persons who despite Evidence given in proof of the Existence of the Creator whom we call God, still choose as is their God given Right to deny His Existence.

I dey feel you!
That's what it means to be learned about the letters (written words) but not filled with the spirit! 2Corinthians 3:6

I will not quote a verse from the Bible before i prove that my own God lives. The Bible is not written to address atheists but to set matters straight among believers. So don't worry i'll not use the letters for you! smiley

grin You are Wrong! Not anything, for it is seen that a non living thing, can do no thing grin so therefore it can not create!

Therefore a Creator Must be a Conscious Living and Intelligent Being like the man for it is seen that man creates!

However He must be Greater and Higher than the man as it also seen that man is Greatly Higher than his creations, thus same rule applies to His Creator!

Nature "creates" things every day. The uniqueness of a snowflake is done every day without any intelligent agent guiding the process. We have never seen any god create anything, all we see is nature doing what it does.

Lol, probably because your cohort's post was senseless. As usual, you hardly know how to talk on a public forum. Children of the same father behave the same way. You said it yourself without duress that unbelief definitely cannot explain anything.
If from your understanding, both belief and unbelief cannot explain anything. What is your stress with belief? Leave us to enjoy our belief and so called delusions. At least we are your bosses, parents and co-equals all over the world.
