God gave us many evidences to His existence:
1-The complexity of our universe points to a Designer.
The universe displays such an amazing design. Therefore, there must have been a divine Designer. The odds of a single protein molecule forming by chance are 1 in 10243. And a single cell is comprised of millions of protein molecules. Therefore, it’s impossible for life to have formed without a Creator.
2-The universe had a beginning – who caused it?
From a scientific standpoint, honest scientists know that the universe had a beginning, and whatever has a beginning has a cause. An effect must resemble its cause. The only rational conclusion is that an eternal Creator is the one responsible for all creation.
3-The universe operates by uniform laws of nature. Who does it?
Much of life may seem uncertain, but the laws of nature remain consistent (ex.: Law of gravity, earth rotation and the speed of light doesn’t change — on earth or in galaxies far from us). Why is the universe so orderly, so reliable? Richard Feynman, a Nobel Prize winner for quantum electrodynamics, said, “Why nature is mathematical is a mystery…The fact that there are rules at all is a kind of miracle.”
4-The DNA code.
The DNA is a three-billion-lettered program directing the cell to act in a specific manner. It is an instruction manual. Natural, biological causes are completely lacking as an explanation when programmed information is involved. A person can’t find exact information like this, without someone intentionally designing it. Only a Mind can plan such information.
5-We believe in God’s existence because He pursues us.
(Ecclesiastes 3:11) tells us, “…He has also set eternity in the hearts of men.” Deep within us is the recognition that there is something beyond this life and Someone beyond this world.
6-Jesus Christ is the clearest picture of God revealing Himself to us.
Buddha, Muhammad, Confucius and Moses all identified themselves as teachers or prophets. None of them ever claimed to be equal to God. Jesus did. What proof did Jesus gave for claiming to be divine?
Jesus did what people can’t do. Christ healed all sickness (Luke 5:15-26), fed thousands of people (Luke 9:12-17), had authority over nature (Luke 8:22-25), cast out demons (Luke 4:33-37), raised the dead (Luke 7:11-16), lived a sinless life (1 Peter 2:22), sacrificed His life for humanity (1 John 3:16), and then was resurrected from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:1-4). If Christ did not literally rise from the dead then none of His history or teachings have any credibility. No other man on earth ever did such mighty works.
Jesus died in our place so we could be saved. Of all the religions leaders known to humanity, only through Jesus will you see God reaching down to humanity, providing a way for salvation. This is God in action. For “God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16). And God can transform people from sinners into saints through His Son.
7-Bible Prophecies:
Bible prophecies are one of the clearest evidences for God’s existence. Only God knows the future and when Bible prophecies come to pass as they were precisely predicted, our faith is empowered with the fact that God knows the beginning from the end.
