God Exists: Here?s why
There is an Almighty, All knowing, Merciful God, like it or not, believe it or not. Most atheists will never change their beliefs. Anyone should be able to use reason in such an introverted way that they see and realize the truth of things. Atheists believe in what can be proven. Obviously, there is no scientific proof that there is a God, or that there isn?t a God. If there was proof, this life wouldn?t be much of a test to earn Paradise. Why does God exist?
- Try to think of every aspect of today?s world: the human race on planet earth. What humans are, how we are, our self-awareness, and our ability to do either right or wrong. The circumstances of life are 100% perfect how an All Knowing God would test you, to see if you?ll believe or not. If (non-existing) technology recorded the creation of earth and mankind, and displayed throughout history for man to view, there would be less of a test to submit to the Creator. If God directly spoke to mankind, there would be less of a test. In fact, for a long time there would be no test: everyone would know there is a God that simply longs for your love and praise for He created you.
- The existence of the three abrahamic faiths: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. All share very similar characteristics and teachings because the prophecies came from the same God. The births of these religions occurred centuries apart.
- The earth, the universe, everything that is here, is all part of an illusion created by God ultimately for the test. Think of space being inside a balloon. Inside that balloon is a tiny planet with God?s greatest creation, humankind. The one holding the balloon in his hand is God.
- For a moment, free your mind of any anti religious feelings you have developed as a result of your environment upbringing (religion is for the weak, religion was created by man for control, religion blocks reason, etc.) for these feelings lead to disillusionment from your God, your Lord. Now, pretend you?re living during the time of one of the prophets: Moses, Jesus, Abraham, Muhammad, or whoever. You?re witnessing Jesus do miracles, the honest man from Mecca you knew all your life is shouting things about the one and only true God worthy of worship. Many atheists will argue that organized religion is simply a ?successful? cult because thousands of years ago people easily bought it. Why are there billions of Muslims and Christians today then?
- Most people do believe in God, but deceive themselves in order to do what they want guilt free. I have two non religious friends who also like to trip. I asked them if they would ever watch a movie about the life and times of Jesus Christ. They said they wouldn?t want that ?make believe? stuff setting into their head. Truth is, and according to the Qur?an, those who truly do not believe in their hearts that God is real has a spiritual sickness brought on by free will- The hard core atheists of today will never find salvation, despite how easily it is to obtain it. If a true kufr took LSD and watched the 1965 movie ?The Greatest Story Ever Told?, he would still stand in his beliefs, and not feel uneasy about the movie. If the person denounced previous belief in nothing, and converted to Christianity as a result of this experience, he in fact did believe in God all his life, only deceived himself from seeing it in striking clarity.
- For many of us, it takes a generous dose of psychedelics to get to know ourselves better. But, Something, somewhere has to know the secrets of our hearts that we are not even aware of ourselves.
- Can you seriously imagine this world being created by it self?
- More people than you would think believe in God in this world. Atheism is very common in the west because there is a lot of disillusionment with Christianity brought on by an immoral society and combined with the contradictions of today?s distorted gospel.
- For those who know only the teachings of Christianity, you should know that God?s final message to the world delivered by Muhammad, shows support evolution, dinosaurs, and other aspects of our history that militant atheists often like to throw at Christians.
- Humans originated in the Middle East, and began to spread out over time, creating different races from environmental factors, and different cultures and languages. This is how Muhammad explained it too.
- Space is constantly expanding. Supported in Islam. Think of the universe as being a balloon. The edge of the balloon being the edge of space. What?s at the other end of the balloon? We can?t comprehend it, because we can hardly comprehend God. All we know is that he loves us more than we can even know. We know he loves to forgive sinners in this life.
- God is so beyond human comprehension that all we can handle is a written word passed down from a messenger. You can put a donkey in a room with a computer for 20 years, it doesn?t mean he?ll understand the how it works and operates.
- Physics and science. Supported in Islam.
- Evolution. Supported in Islam.
- Belief doesn?t cancel out reason. I believe in my heart that the earth is round the same way I believe in my heart that God, Redemption, Heaven, Hell are all part of the big picture: The truth. Since this is the truth, anyone who believes uses reason everyday. Anyone who believes has experienced God throughout their lives, and know the truth of his existence.
- The world around you is yours to dwell in. There are pleasures, intense, embarrassing, destructive, that will bring about temptation among many people.
- Many who chose not to believe in God do it out of disagreement with some of it. They do not agree with the idea of eternal torment for not believing, or that they cannot have sex with members of the same gender, so they refuse to open their hearts to the truth.
In conclusion, if you don?t believe in your heart after reading this, you probably never will and it?s your own fault for creating that burden. Remember these two things: If you don?t believe in the big picture, it?s because you don?t agree with it. It?s your duty to put your Creator in front of everything else, including yourself. The highway to Hell is wide and fast, the stairway to Heaven is steep and narrow.
